It has been a busy couple of months in the Aspirant Dormitories, since the release of  The Gathering Storm.  There’s been a ton of new arrivals, including charis sedai, roran bloodlust, mottlee (returning member), Onis OLeia, Makarra, Elliara, Lord of 13, Rednax, Feon Ceseth, Duncan, Jadelollipop, rubberneckin81, craftyreader, dapianoplay3r, Horus, Little Miss and AlJonin Bullmannen.  They all found excellent Houses in the Dorms, and were appropriately *glomped* upon arrival.

The aspirants are also getting raised at an alarming rate, with Alanna to the Blue Ajah, Ireond to der’Manshima, Mashira to the Red Ajah, Torrie to the Red Ajah, mcs0083 to Manshima, MashinShin and Mirshann to Acccepted, and Bursius to der’Manshima.  Congratulations to all of them!

The Kilaine Cup is nearing conclusion for this Term, with this month’s activity being the last for the Term.  December’s activity:  “Hide the Candy Cane”  (sounds a bit naughty, doesn’t it?).  The objective is for aspirants to go around the boards hiding a particular candy cane graphic in their posts.  Then the first aspirant to “steal” the candy cane (by quoting and replying to the post) gets points for their House.  It has been a fun and great way to get the Aspies all over the Ajahs and Disciplines.

That brings us to the end of this month’s Whispering Hole.  If you have a suggestion or if you’d like to submit something to the Whispering Hole, please email it to daesdaemar@whitetower.org with “Whispering Hole” in the subject line.  See you next month!
