[ 'just public relations'. somewhere in apcher, a passing lay sister catches sight of her expression, and decides to take a walk elsewhere.
'just public relations' — but more importantly, we. the questions that remain are whether she acted alone, to what extent the blood was involved. ]
Naturally, as one does not trust to the presence of human soldiers without practice. What do you feel their reception would be, to arrive at the edges of a Dalish clan? Even upon peaceful terms.
[ they both know exactly how that would go. it's a comparison she's been avoiding; that she's been that soldier, with aims less benign, escapes precisely no one in this conversation. ]
It is easy to ignore the context of our actions. But that is not a luxury which the Inquisition can afford. What is done cannot be undone;
[ save by fire, by axe. maker willing, the guards they've posted will discourage that — there'd been enough problems of it before the fucking trees. ]
It also cannot happen again. I come to you that we might put forward a narrative in which the Inquisition's mages are part of a positive future for Kirkwall. One in which they work with her people and government. One in which our eagerness to help overstepped our political courtesies.
To accomplish this, we require a story, and cooperation with it. A ritual of this size does not draw upon small energy.
