Welcome! I hope you have a ton of fun browsing the forums and getting to know people! Everyone is generally very friendly and willing to help answer questions
General Keno- uhm, no, wrong universe. Hello, the free people of Tar Valon! I am Lyndo Shiranui(I took that last name from a character named Genma Shiranui from Naruto because I wanted a name which looks like an Arafellin one[well, I hope so]) from Arafel. My real name is Emir and I am from Turkey. I'm happy to be here! I would like to answer all of the questions that are suggested to us for introduction.
1. Who is your favorite character in The Wheel of Time and why?
-I thought a lot on this and I think it's Siuan Sanche, but I can also say Cadsuane Melaidhrin and Verin Mathwin. I love these characters because I also love wisdom(sorry Browns, not like that); I mean, they know a lot of things yes but this is not what 'wisdom' means. For they can also do something useful with that knowledge and that is wisdom. And they are also a bit dignified and cool.
2. How did you find TarValon.Net?
-Today I saw the news about 'badalijewelry' and I thought ''Oh no, I must buy my shawl before it's too late!'' but then I realised that Aes Sedai shawls are not actually sold by it lol. Meanwhile I saw this site(Well, I had seen it before but I didn't take much time to wander it in those days.) and realised that this community is friendly and reliable(Eh, there is no Black Ajah in here and this is enough for me) enough to join. And as I can see, my favorite Ajah has brownies so there is that.
3. What do you do? (student? job? hobbies?)
-My last year at university(my department is International Relations[Yes, a well appropriate department for Blue Ajah... and of course, Grays... meh.])
4. Where are you from? What languages do you speak?
-As I said above, Turkey; Turkish, English and a bit of Spanish and Elvish.
5. What is your favorite book or author other than Robert Jordan and The Wheel of Time?
-The Lord of the Rings and the whole Legendarium of J.R.R. Tolkien and my favorite character is Gildor Inglorion from that universe.
Thank you for reading. <3
It will be interesting to hear your perspective of the books, since the city you live in is basically the real life Tar Valon! Or perhaps Cairhien. City of a thousand minarets, home of the Hagia Sophia...
