In one Age, called the Fourth Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a wind rose in the Land of the Crystal Throne. It sped across the great Aryth Ocean to the Tai’Seanchan coast. It continued over the Mountains of Mist, picking up the scent of Two Rivers fine tabac and singing along to a tune made by a Tinker’s tea kettle. It swirled around the vast prairie known as the Caralain Grass, with it’s Black Tower fortress, and the island city of Tar Valon, home of the fabled Ogier-made White Tower...The wind swept through the valleys, skimming along the lake that once was Shadar Logoth, lifting the raven in flight. It howled through the Blight past the snorts and bellows of Trollocs, carrying on it the stench of their cookpots and rot as it whipped by a Myrddraal without creating so much as a ripple in its dark cloak. If you listen closely to the wind you can hear the sound of “friends” whispering in the dark as it whistles by you. The shadows beckon you to their warm embrace; where will the wind take you? For you must know, the wind was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was A beginning.
Current Events
The Fire Legion is responsible for the recruitment of new Asha'man into the Black Tower's ranks, as well as the hunting of rogue channelers. Both are vital functions of the Westlands as well as the Black Tower, and both suffered due to the damage inflicted upon the Legion during the Tower War. They have only recently regained their footing, having ceded their recruiting efforts to the other Legions for a period of time while they rebuilt their internal hierarchy and trained new Legion members. The new leadership is largely new, but driven, and have created recruiting posts in most major cities, as well as enabled more experience members time to hunt rogues and recruit in more remote areas.
The Legion continues to have some ties to an ambivalent Red Ajah, with some bonded pairs remaining from before the Tower War, as well as a number of back-channels from more reasonable Red Ajah members. Rehabilitating the relationship and restoring official ties is an important long term goal for the Legion as well as the Black Tower, in an effort to regrow their recruiting effort to its previous levels.
In order to test if a man is able to channel saidin, a male channeler must weave fire between themselves and the man being tested, and the latter must concentrate on the flame. The channeler will feel resonance if the man can learn to channel. This is true regardless of the relative skill with Fire between either party. It is, in fact, likely that any element could work, but Fire is the most traditional and the most practical.
