History:
Tyrienna Acklehin Tolrahon was born in the city of Shol Arbela in Arafel. As a child and growing up she often moved and traveled with her family from different cities often because her father would find another job or woman. She was rather small as a child and didn't actually start her real growing until she was about 14. Her father was a kind man but didn't know how exactly to raise her so she grew up rather as a tom boy with only a few friends however dear. Her father would leave her to do as she would, not bothering to check on how her life was going, only paying attention to his work as a pottery maker. She had an older sister who was 12 years older than her and already married off. Her sister would sometimes invite her for a stay in her birth city. It was at one of these that she had the most difficult time in her childhood. Her sister was very dear to her and so was her father. This time her father had decided to come to Shol Arbela with Tyrienna most likely because he knew a special someone there, a woman who he had taken a fancy to. Thinking this was the normal thing, she would go out riding with her sister and not care for what her father did because he didn't care for what she did. It became a horrible winter of freezing weather and they had to stay indoors.

That was when her father announced the engagement of him and his to be wife Teslian. She was a bossy young woman, younger than her own sister who was crude to her. She hated her to the roots of her heart and she knew she could not because her father loved that woman. In bitter despair she knew she could not stay with them. Her father now no longer cared whatsoever about her life and only fastened his eyes on his new wife and she couldn't bare it any longer. She ran away.

She ran east with a merchant train that was leading to the mountains. She heard they were going to the Aiel waste but she didn't care even if they were so called savages. It was a long journey and the day she saw her first aiel it was her 16th name day. The ragged little child who had just turned into a woman approached an aiel city. She loved this new place of warmth where there was no long winter or coldness. A wise one offered to teach her and take her as an apprentice seeing the sadness behind her life even though she was not aiel. She could have been mistaken for aiel except for her hair. She was tall and slim but rather curvy now that she was developed. Two long braids hung down her back to her waste each with small bells in the male fashion of her country. She quickly became accustomed to the aiel ways and wore the shawl and skirts of their dress. Her hair was dark brown but quickly lightened in her new living arrangements. She had gray eyes that would often change to green or blue. Her skin was smooth and she was pretty although she didn't think so herself. She became a calm woman, no longer the tom boy she was and became apprenticed to the wise one.

Only a few months later, while in Rhuidean she met an Aes Sedai. Only briefly did they confer but she spoke of the White Tower and that Tyrienna had the spark in her. Now that Tyrienna was Aiel and she had discharged her old life in Arafel she no longer wanted to be known as Tyrienna, but her middle name Acklehin; to be known as Acklehin Tyrienna Tolrahon. She knew that giving away your name and taking a new one would help her to forget her past. As the Aes Sedai left she looked at where she was now in life and decided she didn't like it. As a wilder she wouldn't be able to get anywhere with the Source unless she went to the Tower. Asking her Wise One, Drisana, if she would leave to the White Tower, Drisana was full behind in her decision and decided to go with Acklehin herself. And so the journey began. She was off to the White Tower with Drisana who was the closest woman to a mother she ever met, about to leave her past behind and make something of herself.
