You might be a little over the top, and a little out of line trying to use my own people to guilt me for something that wasn't even wrong by your Chantry standards, as far as I can tell. And the more people see the Inquisition overreacting, the worse it will be. Tell them magic exists to serve man, and it was part of the effort to help restore the city. That's all. If people are frightened, they will calm down. If a child sees a snake and panics, you don't panic along with him. If it's a safe snake, you pick it up and show it and let him know it's nothing to be afraid of. If it's a dangerous snake, you keep your distance and show him how to identify the snake later and how to move so it doesn't attack. You don't pick up the snake and run screaming through camp, shaming it for frightening your child.
