When Aria awoke on floor of the novice quarters she wondered why no one had noticed her sleeping. A slight jingle as she stood brought her attention to necklace she had not worn before. Knowing that she had missed class she to the yards on her way to the mistress of novices.

Dreams ......that blissful state in which fantasy becomes reality. Not all dreams are so and for some what happens to you in a dream can become a nightmarish reality. Thus is the case of Tel'aran'rhiod.
The room Aria woke to was her own in the Tower, but something seemed different. Figuring she was still tired she set about washing up and fixing her hair. The problem was every time she starting washing the wash basin would not only be empty but the water picture full again and she never felt the dampness of the water itself. She looked around the room again what was so different about it....then she realized room seemed muted and the water must have been reset to it's own time. She remebered her classes on dreams and the dream world tel'aran'rhiod, but she could not figure out how she had gotten there.

She hurriedly went to finish dressing when she realized she already was dressed. The dark dress cut way to low for any Cairheinen to feel respectable in kept changing in color from brown to blue and occasionally yellow. She thought at least she was covered to a minimum of decency and since she could not remember how to wake herself up as of yet she should perhaps use this time to explore the tower without anyone to interrupt her.

First she checked out places she was familiar with to see what sort differences she could expect.

The differences seemed subtle: a door that would not close, a chair that seemed to have changed since she entered the room. Suddenly she heard voices in the hall. Who else could be here? She had heard no rumors of any dreamers being in the Tower. She waited for the voices to pass then crept to the door to see if she could tell who they were. She saw only the backs of 2 women talking as they walked casually down the hall.
"The girl has found allies in the Tower." Said the first woman
"Yes, who would have thought the warder so intuitive." Replied the second
Who were they...and more importantly who were they talking about.
A Man more shadow than form but presumably a man stepped out from what seemed like darkness before the women in the hall.
"Go find this Warder and do not let him interfere again." Was all the women said.
At that fear gripped Aria as she realized she could be facing 2 of the Black Ajah.
She woke screaming in her bed instinctively embracing the Saidar for protection.

Realising she was now truly awake she stopped screaming but held on to Saidar for a moment longer before dressing and running out to find Cirithil.
He must know that a Warder has been targeted by the Black Ajah.
Her face flush she all but ran through the halls seeking the one person she could remember talking to.
