NOTES: World State Update; with thanks to our benevolent overlords, threads on this post count for April AC because March is fake.
We've just received word from the Orlesian front line.
As I'm sure we're all aware, barring the fall of the Val Chevin blockade, there has been little movement from the front over the winter. Overland, the Orlesians have been dug in around Val Royeaux, and the same can said of the enemy force's occupation in Val Chevin, evacuated Montfort, and beyond. That said, it appears [a little arch; Riftwatch has been informed of the fact, not consulted] that with Spring approaching, the bulk of the allied army - including the Orlesian force, the Inquisition, and the scores Divine Beatrix has managed to train over the winter - has begun to make their move.
They mean to retake Montfort then proceed to recapture Ghislain, with the aim being to divide the Tevinter-Ander army and interrupt supply lines between Perendale and Val Chevin. Unsurprsingly, Corypheus' forces have responded in kind and the fighting has presently come to a head southwest of Montfort.
[Dry as kindling:]
If anyone else has exciting new plans for the Spring they'd like to share - re-papering your parlor, or the deployment of the half legion of foot soldiers you've been keeping in your back pocket -, I'm sure we'd all be delighted to hear them.

I listen to people. It was both.

[But after that moment of sullennness, her voice changes. This is the sound of someone reciting everything she can recall--a rote, toneless performance.]
One was short and thin, and the other had no hair. They smelled like dried fish and ale. They complained about coffee and plays and other things I do not think you will find interesting. The first was worried about a friend who wished to go to Tevinter because the Chantry is like a slaver and Tevinter does not harm its mages and Calpernia would see slaves freed. Seventeen people went, but the Templars caught some and she did not know if her friend was one of the ones who was caught. "Everyone knows that Calpernia takes the willing under her wing." He said she wrote letters. And there was a battle mentioned because of deserters who went first.
