Casting down bad memories

FORM: Sending crystal
SENDER: Beleth Ashara
RECIPIENT: Everyone who's part of the first group to Kirkwall
WHAT: Discussing what's to be done about the statues
WHEN: Sometime between Cloudreach 14th and 20th
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: This isn't an Official Poll that's going to decide things but it's a good way for people to throw out suggestions for voting on and discuss ideas


Good day, to every member of the Inquisition currently helping take care of the Gallows. We've been making some amazing progress, and I'm sure that our contributions will give this place the overhaul that it desperately needs. With time, the Gallows will become a symbol of hope, rather than despair.

If I may, I'd like to take time to discuss ideas for one of those symbols. Specifically, those horrid statues that are strewn about. Now that they will...probably no longer attempt to kill us.

I've been informed that there are artisans willing to melt down the statues and create new ones to be put in their place. Additionally, our group has been given permission to choose what kind of statues would be put up there. Suffice to say, whatever we go with will make a statement about our goals here. The Inquisition is trusting us to make sure that statement is positive.

So, I would like to discuss possibilities with everyone, and see if we can get some good ideas going.

To start the ball rolling, if it's alright, I'd like to share my own proposal. Of course, this is only a suggestion, and I welcome any other voices.

I propose that we have the statues remade to represent the diverse groups within the Inquisition. Have a statue of a dwarf, another of a Dalish, another of a mage, etc, etc. It would send a message of cooperation and coexistence, and hopefully promote such in our new home.

The floor is open for further suggestions.

There is a copy in the library, I can have it set aside for you Monsieur...? [ aren't crystals fun, never having any idea who anyone is? ]

It is possible of course that there was no disaster. The pyramid-builders may have simply abandoned the island and returned from whence they came. It's impossible to say without proper excavation, but I've yet to convince the Qunari authorities to allow it. Perhaps if the Inquisition allies with them we shall find a way.

Private to Freddie; Beleth's thread can continue from here without Anders

Anders.

[He doesn't feel like saying it publicly on the crystal now that they're in Kirkwall. And he doesn't feel like dealing with possible reactions from more than one person right now, not after the Fenris mess.]

Have we met? Ought I be able to guess? I know Ander does narrow it down, but I've met more than one of your countrymen in the Inquisition so far so I'm afraid I'll need another hint.
justice_is_blond: (A small atonement)

No, I'm sorry, I'm not being deliberately vague. I'm known as Anders.

Oh, I see. That's unfortunate! Do you find you're often taken for that Anders?

No. Never. No one ever makes the connection.
