[Her tone is brisk, though not unfriendly. She's just eager to get down to business.]

Korrin here. I always love sparring with anyone interested, but now it's for more than just the hell of it. If you're not part of the Forces division and don't mind going toe-to-toe with a giant horned mage, hit me up. I swear I'm less intense than I look. 

Not that it should need to be said, but rifters are more than welcome. I'm always curious about what you can do. If you can pull a surprise out of your ass that'll knock me on mine, I'll buy you a drink. 




[Private to Adalia]

I have something different to ask of you. You're a storm mage, right? You have the same affinity with lightning that I do?

Nari hums thoughtfully. "I honestly hadn't thought about much in the way of spellwork besides dealing or healing direct harm." That and Keeper's magic. After all, Sina had used to trip her with vines and roots when they used to spar. Before everything. She thins her lips, remembering the fierce joy on her clansister's face as the earth came to the call of her hands. Nari blinks quickly until the cobblestones stop fuzzing.

"Sorry. I-- just thinking about something Sina used to do. I've not seen Static Cage," she says with an only slightly strained smile. "Tell me more about it some time? I'll buy the drinks next time if you let me pick your brain."

Korrin rests a steadying hand on Nari's shoulder, just in case she needs it. Mention of Sina has her raising an eyebrow, curious but wanting to give Nari leeway so that she doesn't feel it necessary to answer.

"Absolutely, and you can tell me about Sina's magic...if you want and it's something that can be shared with non-Dalish. I don't want to take that for granted."

"I'm sure if there was anyone Sina wouldn't mind hearing it would be you," Nari says, lifting a hand to touch Korrin's. "Not that my stories would help you much if you meant to turn them to study. I think the best way to put it would be that the earth came to her call the same way the sky comes to yours." She crosses her arms over her chest and looks up at the blue. "If she'd been able to come to her full strength, had ever been able to stand with you on the battlefield..." although perhaps without the young First's tragedy none of their history with the Inquisition would have come to pass.

Nari raises her eyebrows and huffs a laugh of respectful awe through her nose, "I'd pity Corypheus's forces. If I had any care for their welfare, anyway."
