( A quiet clearing of the throat; one can naturally assume it is a very beautiful clearing of the throat, done by a very beautiful man. )

This matter of the phylacteries for rifters… it seems sensible. If they are such a valuable resource to the Inquisition, the closing of rifts, and so on, being able to find said resource if a rival power were to try and overpower them and abscond with them makes sense, I think. For their own safety, for our own safety. If Corypheus and his forces were, for example, to make an attack on a party closing a rift and kidnap those rifters for nefarious purposes, it would be better for all if we were able to find them as quickly as possible. The phylacteries are an established way of doing just this, no?

By all means, if you wish to see the world end, protest. Even if this is not your world, though, I think we can all agree that you are currently in it. It’s fate is not entirely irrelevant to you.

In one thing we are agreed, docteur; it is past due that many similarly foreign to myself understood that we are not apart from this world, and behave accordingly.

( beaumanoir is common and so are his thoughts. they will hear this again and again, and the concerns raised (and those not spoken, but felt) will not be assuaged by the wailing and gnashing of teeth. certainly not by threats of force.

she presses a finger to the pulse, acquaints herself with its speed and strength. these will be busy days. )

Wise words. How have you settled in?

( she realises with a start that it has been a year past, now— )

It has been a year not without its challenges, ( as diplomatically as ever. ) Thedas offers us all no end of those, I'm sure you'll agree.

This discussion has been a long time coming, I think.
