Aneth ara, Inquisition.

I was thinking, how do you feel about coming up with more ways to relax? I know we have the tavern, which everyone enjoys to the fullest, and the hot spring which has so many uses, but Sam - the blacksmith one - [Not to be confused with the Hobbit one] and I were talking and he brought up that I used to give massages and how sometimes people need more ways to relax. We're all under a lot of stress and deserve time to unwind.

What I'm suggesting is a sort of... [he searches for the word] spa? Nothing like what you'll find in Val Royeaux, of course, we don't have the space or the resources for that, but I know how to make oils and things that help keep your skin healthy and we could use the hot springs and help one another by tending to each other...

Let me know if this sounds silly. Sam and I tend to come up with a lot of silly ideas when we're together.

This sounds excellent, Cyril. A hot spring is a boon but baths are truly a gift. Few things refresh the weary so well as warm water and scented oil.

I'd be happy to make you some even if the spa idea doesn't take off, my Lady.

I will admit, had I known you made such things, I would have commissioned you long ago. It has been far too long since I've relaxed in a bath.

But surely your idea has been met with some enthusiasm?

So far, yes, but having a group of us say it's a good idea doesn't give us the space and resources.

I'll spare some of my own supply for you. I can always make more for myself.
