Tulia

Overview

Tulia is a young Tenner (ten-year cycle) suur (honorific) at the Concent of Saunt Edhar (monastic community), noted for pragmatic focus and quiet steadiness. She often balances practical duties with discreet study alongside close peers.

Appearance and Traits

Erasmas recalls that Tulia can talk sense into a distressed person "effortlessly," reinforcing her reputation for calm, reassuring presence and steady practical judgment.

Roles and Actions

• Bell and observing work: Assists with bell responsibilities and helped set up a safe pinhole projection to log brief blue "sparks" near the sun for later review.
• Study and coordination: Works smoothly within small circles to compare notes and keep tasks moving; when needed, offers clear, succinct guidance to peers.

Relationships

• Suur Ala: Long-standing partner and confidante in chores, bell work, and inquiry. See Ala.
• Fraa Erasmas: A trusted peer who joined her for the pinhole observation and subsequent discussion. See Fraa Erasmas.

Recent Activity

• Mass Evocation (official summoning): During the Six-Fold Voco (mass calling), Tulia is among those called to go extramuros (outside the walls) and converge on a designated assembly.
• Convox travel: She is described as part of the direct-to-Tredegarh group heading for the Concent of Saunt Tredegarh, organized under the Convox (joint assembly).
• Parting note: As Erasmas left Saunt Edhar, he recalls seeing Tulia look shocked; he interprets this as concern for Ala.

Notes

• Later, Erasmas alludes to a prior conversation with Tulia before "Eliger"; he thinks of it when discussing how to be useful at the Convox. The content of that conversation is not specified.

Current Status

Extramuros under Evocation, traveling with the direct contingent toward Saunt Tredegarh. Her intent includes reconnecting with familiar collaborators; specific reunions remain unconfirmed.
