FORM: Sending Crystal
SENDER: Cyril Ashara
RECIPIENT: Locked to all elves and elf-blooded - not just the Dalish, anyone with elf blood is included.
WHAT: Cyril wants to talk about Galadriel.
WHEN: A couple of days after Galadriel's imprisonment.
WHERE: Skyhold. Cyril is broadcasting from his and Merrick's room. Merrick is around in the background while Cyril talks, so you can assume he's open to thread jump when needed.
NOTES: This is basically that whole bit of the Civil War plot where the Dalish are super pissed off about Galadriel being tossed in jail. Cyril wants the opinion of others so they can put together a formal request for Galadriel's release. - Now in the right com!

Aneth ara.

Some of you know me, others may not. My name is Cyril, of Clan Ashara. I'm sending this message to all within the Inquisition who have the blood of Our People because I feel we should each have a say in this matter.

An elvhen woman named Galadriel has been imprisoned for refusing to pledge herself to the Inquisition. If you have not met Galadriel... [He trails off for a moment here, as if considering his words carefully.]

She is all that we have lost.

[Then, another pause, as he realizes that's not the best way to get city elves on his side.]
If you have not had the pleasure of speaking with her, I highly suggest it.

Either way, the thought that an elf can be tossed into a cell for refusing to agree to pledge themselves to a human religious organization is unsettling.

Many of us are here because we've done just that, because we realize the Inquisition is the best chance we have to restoring Order to the world, but the fact that this has happened to an elvhen woman is [One more pause, as he doesn't want to curse here.] ... extremely troubling.

I propose that we formerly request that Galadriel be released immediately. She is not a threat and whatever suspicion the Right Hand holds against the Rifters should be handled in a mature manner, not by throwing an innocent woman in prison for daring to refuse to submit.

I want to welcome your opinions as all of us will be face the consequences of such a request, most humans do have trouble telling us apart after all. [And that's meant to be more of a joke, perhaps poorly timed.]

You are indeed a man of many, many wonderful talents.

I live to please. Best of luck with this, then.

Thank you again, my friend.

I could eventually use a distraction, if you're up for another card game.

I can do more for you than cards if you have a few hours to kill.

I'm sure I can find more than a few, if you're involved.

Promises, promises. Call me later when you are finished, yes? I have some new rope that would look lovely on you.

I will. [Oh man, way to completely diffuse his outrage, Zevran.] Until then.

[And he'll leave it at that until he has the ability to pull away and find Zevran.]

I'm in the room.

Which is why I am inviting him to mine.

[ Exaggerated gagging noises. ]

Surprise! I like being tied up by handsome men. I know, it's so shocking. You'd never have imagined.

[Now he's mostly just messing with Merrick, but it is nice to not be all gloom and doom.]
