''Author: Kyria d'Oreyn''

==General==

Sarainya Vostovan is a [[The Kin|Kinswoman]] and a Wise Woman in [[Ebou Dar]]. She is strikingly handsome with a husky voice. She is weak in [[the One Power]] ({{acos|24}}).

Although she had been a noble in her native land of [[Arafel]], before she joined the Kin, she wears her hair loose, so as not to attract attention ({{acos|24}}).

==Timeline==

* Sarainya joins the Kin around 950 NE ({{acos|24}}).

* Sarainya brings news to the Knitting Circle about the Kinswoman [[Callie]]. She has been found dead, killed by ''[[saidar]]'' ({{acos|24}}).

* Sarainya is at the farm when [[Elayne]] and her party arrive ({{tpod|4}}) and Travels with them to [[Caemlyn]] when the [[Seanchan]] attack ({{tpod|6}}).

* When [[Kirstian Chalwin]] and [[Zarya Alkaese]] are discovered to be runaway novices, Sarainya and [[Asra]] are not at all content with turning two Kinswomen over to [[the White Tower]] and propose to stand against the Aes Sedai. They are quieted by [[Alise]] and [[Reanne]] with an order to cut themselves a switch that is to be used later that day ({{tpod|28}}).

==Quotes==

"As usual, Sarainya swept right in before Reanne could say to admit her. In some ways, the strikingly handsome woman made Garenia appear supple, despite keeping the form of every rule exactly. Reanne was sure she would have worn her hair in braids and bells given the choice, and never mind how that would have looked with her red belt. But then, given the choice she would not have served even one turn with the belt." (Reanne thinking about Sarainya; {{acos2|Chapter 24}})

Neither strong enough to become Aes Sedai nor nearly old enough to stand very high among the Kin, she still stepped from the pack defiantly. "Why should we give them up to the White Tower? We have helped women run away, and rightly so! It is not part of the rules to give them back!" (Sarainya about Kirstian and Zarya; {{tpod2|Chapter 28}})
