The Wheel Weaves A Chance Meeting (Closed for Now)

[Cadence]

Kira Valyrios

Kira was intrigued by this man.  She had asked him the question about trust because it had been expected, but the response back had still slightly surprised her. It was the simple truth, and he didn't try to fight around it.  Kira had no reason, other than what she had seen to trust him, and because of that she did.

What had surprised the Aes Sedai more, however, was that Ignis was more than willing to drop everything to make sure she got to her destination safely, and for all he knew she could be going on a journey to Seanchan.  

"Why would you offer this? I could be going the opposite direction than you are. You would go out of your way to help a stranger?"

Ignis looked at her. "I'm a traveler who goes where the wheel takes me and do the tasks the wheel sets before me. The Wheel Weaves as the Wheel Wills as they say."

Kira held back the smile she felt.  His answer was a very Aes Sedai answer. He was suggesting fate had brought them together in this moment, and perhaps there was truth to that.  The Wheel worked in mysterious ways.

"Then I will accept your offer," she said, pulling Melody by the bit, and getting closer to her new traveling companion. "It is getting late. Perhaps we should set up camp?"

Ignis nodded. "I'll lead you to mine. I have a couple of rabbits I was going to put into a stew for dinner tonight.  Will that suffice? Kira nodded and he began to lead her towards his camp. "Since you mention it, where are we headed?"

Kira smiled. "Tar Valon."
