Character Summary -
An old, powerful grey sister, Kielle Daranovi once was a former Keeper to Aizan Masadi, the last Grey, prior to Elsbedhe Bodwell, to wear the stole. She has served as advisors to thrones, as well as emissary to others, and is regarded as one of the most accomplished diplomats in the Tower. She along with many sisters in the grey, was a strident supporter of Elsbedhe Bodwell. In recent years, She was dispatched to Tanchico, to apply pressure on King Beymer of Tarabon to affect peace with King Vadin II of Arad Doman, and cease their squabbling over Almoth Plain. In truth, the plan was to broker a pact that would require the two nations to garrison the town of Falme, under the neutral governance of the White Tower in the hopes that Tar Valon would acquire a port on the Aryth Ocean.

Character Description - Very short, especially for a Kandori woman, Kielle Daranovi, has dramatic dark brows over her large, appraising blue eyes, set in a taut, unlined face. Her once ash-blonde hair is now snowy white, worn gathered up in a dainty snood of electrum wires, studded with twinkling chips of amethyst. Full-waisted and buxom, she wears an imposing gown of dark charcoal colored silk, heavily brocaded , belted beneath her breasts by a wide velvet sash, thickly embroidered with gold, and hanging weighty golden tassels from its end, in the rear of her gown. The sleeves are flowing and dagged, with a matching tassel at the lowest point, and lined with sumptuous white ermine. A chemise of pristine white Maldine lace is worn under the gown, visible under the wide sleeves, and beneath the wide, vee-shaped neckline. Kielle wears an astounding necklace, amethysts the size of small plums strung along a thick golden cable, wrapped snug around her neck, and then draping loosely down her décolletage. Her Great Serpent ring is lost amid the splendor her raiment. She wears her formal shawl, long grey fringe the color of an angry stormcloud trailing over her arms and down her back.

Jeine Marelan:
A newly raised Gray sister, Jeine has recently returned from Tanchico, where she served as an assistant to Kielle Sedai, who was at the court of King Beymer ibn Dalhuaar of Tarabon in a Tower-brokered effort at quelling hostilities between Arad Doman and Tarabon. Intelligent and quick-witted, Jeine is proud of her days as a singer and jongleur in Lugard, and is not above lacing political barbs among songs that she composes and distributes secretly as part of her diplomatic efforts.
