FORM: Sending Crystal
SENDER: Josephine Montilyet
RECIPIENT: Everyone!
WHAT: A question! (Please talk to her, she's lonely.)
WHEN: Current
WHERE: Skyhold
NOTES: n/a

Good evening, everyone. My name is Josephine Montilyet and I am the Ambassador for the Inquisition. I've not had the pleasure of meeting as many of you as would like personally, so... I thought this might be an easier, more - ah - approachable way of getting to know each other better.

( She clears her throat as though to prevent herself from rambling. )

I must confess I do not know where to start. Perhaps a conversational ice-breaker will have to do. ( So much for not rambling. ) What do you miss most about your life before the Inquisition?

You're kind to say so, thank you.

I would love to see more variety in the stacks; more of Genitivi's works, more publications from the University of Orlais, anything beyond what is already available. I've nothing against all the Chantry-centric works, but a greater variety can only benefit us.

The current state of the library probably too accurately reflects the origins of the Inquisition, yes. ( The words come out a bit more drily than she intended. )

I shall see what I can do to go about getting more of the books you mentioned. Now that I think about it, there is an esteemed librarian back home who owes me a favour. I'm sure he can be persuaded into making a donation to the Inquisition...

[Intention or not, it still makes Inessa smile. And then she pauses, genuinely taken aback?]

Really? I know the Inquisition has other priorities and understandably so, but if it isn't too much trouble....

It shall be no more trouble than writing a letter.

It's appreciated. Thank you.

What would you get for yourself, assuming you find time to read for pleasure?

I won't be holding my breath for such a moment. ( She chuckles. )

If I could, well, I would like more books about stories and legends. It would be nice to have access to them once again.

( It's the little bit of bard that's left in her, really. )

Agreed. I wish I could have departed Weisshaupt with some of the Warden legends from their library. They would make for some fine reading, but there was no time.
