These are the official declarations for those aspiring to become a Wise One. When you have reached your 15 points for whichever level, the appropriate announcement will be posted. Then you will post your response.

Initiate to Apprentice:
Head Wise One:
"In Rhuidean you will find three rings, arranged so." Draws three
lines in the air, joining together in the middle. "Step through any
one. You will see your future laid before you, again and again, in
variation. They will not guide you wholly, as is best, for they will
fade together as do stories heard long ago, yet you will remember
enough to know some things that must be for you, despised as they may be, and some that must not, cherished hopes that they are. This is the beginning of being called wise."
"Recount one time in your life when a decision you made changed the outcome of something in your life."
<<Initiate Response>>
------------------------------------------------------------
Apprentice to Acolyte:
Head Wise One:
"Some women never return from the rings; perhaps they could not face the future. Some who survive the rings do not survive their second trip to Rhuidean, to the heart. You are not giving up a hard and dangerous life for a softer, but for a harder and more dangerous."
"Explain to us what it means to you to be Aiel."
<<Apprentice Response>>
------------------------------------------------------------
Acolyte to Wise One:
Head Wise One:
"Prove to us why you think you are worthy enough to become a Wise One."
<<Acolyte Response>>
"You have the strength, a strong mind and a strong heart are your
weapons now, but you hold them as surely as you ever held spear.
Remember them, use them, and they will see you through anything."
