Gai'shain
rdfs:comment
Gai'shain are Aiel who have been captured in a battle or raid, and take it as their toh to serve their captors faithfully for a year and a day. After that time, they return to their clan as if nothing had happened. It is far from unknown for Aiel taken gai'shain by an Aiel of the opposite sex to end up married to their captor. It is far from unknown for Aiel taken gai'shain by an Aiel of the opposite sex to end up married to their captor. Wise Ones, blacksmiths, children, and pregnant women or women with a child under the age of ten cannot be taken gai'shain. Exact "ownership" of the gai'shain is a variable matter; though each gai'shain swears only to one person, they can be and are often instructed to obey commands from other people as well.
