Ahmae Sandora's
Letters From Home *** The mail Novice looked worn out. She didn't have many letters in her bag but Ahmae guessed that she had been handing them out all morning. "Are you Ahmae?" She asked. Ahmae nodded. She spent so much time in the library many of the newer Novices didn't know her very well. The envelope was addressed in her father's precise handwriting. Ahmae, It's been awhile since we've heard from you so your grandmother asked me to write you. Her hands don't like to grip a pen for long anymore. I am also requested to tell you that Bahji misses you. He spends much of the day lying in frint of the door. Mother says he's waiting for you to come back. The account books miss you as well. How you managed to figure everything in your head I don't know. Maybe I'm just getting old. I'll quit my rambling and get to the news. I'll be down to Tar Valon in a few months. I have a shipment of tabac to pick up from Senra. You remember her don't you? Bar's partner? Anyway if there's anything you want be to bring let me know. I'll bring Bahji along. He'll enjoy the trip. Davar Wait just a minute. Mother is demanding- The wording smudged there. Ahmae could just see her grandmother grabbing for the pen. -to come along. I guess it will be a regular family reunion. Ahmae smiled to herself as she tucked the letter away. Maybe by the time her father arrived she would be Aes Sedai! It was wishful thinking but she didn't have many classes to go. |
