chanter1944From the fic tentatively titled Strange New Worlds. Spoilers for the beginning and premise of said fic abound below.
Returning to the topic at hand: Valeris is not, neither by the biological nor, if and when using Vulcan itself and its societal mores as origin points, the planetary calendar of her species, far past childhood.
Wizards are commonly offered their Oaths, so she later learns, during their species's latency period, allowing for variation due to, among other factors, dual or multispecies genetics, personal potential, and individual circumstance.
Rura Penthe is Valeris's Ordeal.
Rura Penthe is her introduction to the Art, her Oath, and her battle, all in one. Nothing whatsoever before, despite Vulcan's relative openness to the scientific aspects of the practice though there is, in retrospect, some strong suspicion of brief Overshadowing, and certain event - events - could absolutely have, says at least one empathetic colleague later, qualified as an ordeal of another stripe--revulsion serves no purpose.
