"I-" Aelin began to speak, but the Elven woman spoke over him. He did not look her in the eyes as her barrage of questions caused his shoulders to sag, and he grit his teeth in frustration. When her...
Time to do...
Stuff.
"Initiate, over there! Hold fast the rigging!" The blonde woman brushed the hair from her eyes and pointed toward the stern. A loose rope flailed about. "You need to tie that back down and help them...
The moon and stars peeked out from behind clouds, spilling pale light over Beinost. The slick cobblestones clacked as he walked beneath a looming arch. The monolithic stone was wreathed with ivy...
I-Initiate Aelin Valth of the Arcane Knights, ready to serve the realm and defeat monstrous creatures...
...I think...
Well, if there's any need for me, I'm able to serve in what capacity I can.
I know there probably won't be a need, though...
Books and pictures cast Beinost in a humbling light.
Aelin was a student of texts and parchment foremost, and most of his upbringing took place in libraries sequestered away from the real world....
The young mage jerked back when the confident voice addressed him and visibly jumped when John held out his hand. Aelin watched the blade that sprang forth from his hand and gulped, wondering if the...
For Aelin, talk of swords and knighthood began as a dream. Childhood aspirations toward heroism began with sticks in the cobblestone path outside his home in Tylmerande. What few friends he had spent...
Beinost was new to him.
Corone was a different world from Raiaera. The magic was thicker here, and stronger, yet the power felt sundered and scattered. Every time he strained his mind for a...

Dawn's virgin breath sighed across the cresting waves. Salty spray misted in his face as Aelin stood near the bow of the ship, safely away from those more qualified to move freely about its deck. He...
Ashla looks pretty cute, then.
I have to get back to you on Tobi and Aelin.
Pungent and acrid, the scent of ancient texts and mildew-ridden scrolls assailed Aelin as he sorted through a vertible trove of knowledge. Tylmerande remained a peaceful corner of Corone in the wake...
"Ah, a moment," Jorrick called after the crestfallen novice. "There is another matter."
While Masterson was preoccupied with the unopened warrant, the Knight-Commander took the precious seconds to...
He shuffled through the texts with vague interest as men came and went from the tent. Aelin performed his daily duties as scribe and recordkeeper to the Knight-Commander as part of a recent...
His knees struck the ground loudly, and Josette cringed. "The bodies?" she inquired again, a bit more assertive. "Valth, weren't they...?" She backed slowly toward him as the sound of something...
His shaken gaze twisted into bitter distaste. "You're enjoying this too much," he criticized. Splattered crimson oozed down the leather on his arm and Aelin shook his arm to dislodge it. "Let's try...
"Stharos thil'arath..." he began to mutter the words scribbled on the page with fervent understanding. His gaze grew dire and darkened to rival the shadows that surrounded them. "...aeternum...
"What is he doing?"
The way he holds a sword is juvenile; he swings steel the way a schoolboy pretends with a stick. Timidity streaks though Initiate Valth's movements. There is no decisive ardor....
Shadows danced across the floor at their feet spilling ounces of truth across a field of lies. The wet smack of his footsteps admonished Aelin for the treacherous desire to look down. He already knew...
