How to Succeed at Failing

Yesterday there was tears of happiness at Université de Cairhien, as well as the old fashioned ones. Caitlin Melaidhrin – daughter of Rand al’Thor and Cadsuane Melaidhrin – graduated with a 3.9 GPA. She promptly moved back to Cairhien with fiancé Owyn Damodred.

Elayne al’Meara, however, was expelled from the university. Sources claim this was due in part to the hardships of her upbringing, specifically, her lack of knowledge about her birth-mother. Clay al’Meara wasn’t very forthcoming about where his daughter’s mother was, except to say “in space”.

Elayne isn’t all sorrow though. She did marry her longtime sweetheart Kevin al’Thor. al’Thor himself dropped out of college, and was very understanding to his wife’s situation. The two are now proud parents of a baby girl named Tigraine.
