[When this new voice speaks, there is a slight reverb to it, not sounding quite right.]

A curious thing, these crystals. But most certainly a revolutionary tool. I commend whomever created it.

In any case, I felt it necessary to introduce myself. My name is Thane, and I have been assigned to the Scouting division. I wish to make myself available, should you need me.

In addition, I understand there are some studying the red lyrium. If I may, I wish to speak to those on that project. In person, preferably. The topic is delicate in nature.

Thank you for your time. Maker be with you.

[aforethought]

If it's a rash, [ delicate in nature huh ] Ain't fixing to know where you got it.

[outil]

Shame. It's quite the story.

[It's spoken wryly, but he doesn't confirm or deny the possibility of a rash.]

[aforethought]

I've seen those things, lucky y'didn't put an eye out. What're y'making yourself available for, anyway?

[outil]

[Thane hums a moment. He sees no reason to really keep it a secret.]

Simply put, I am a trained assassin. Though I suppose I could be used well for spying, if necessary.

[aforethought]

[ a low whistle in response — whether it's a deliberate bit of imitation is difficult to say ]

Reckon there're a lot of spies who go around tellin' people that shit?

[ it's an honest question ]

[outil]

No, I imagine most spies are careful enough to not admit it so openly.

For me, I am at the Inquisition's disposal. I see no reason to not share some of my skills.

[aforethought]

Inquisition's a lot of folks. It were me, I might start with some of th'other skills. Say, if you got a knack for baking, or a hand at cards.

[outil]

Neither, I'm afraid. I know the basic rules of Diamondback, but I do not play.

I am capable of farming, though I don't see that coming into play here.

[aforethought]

Smart move. Ain't worth playing it if ain't worth losing. What'd you grow?

[outil]

Vegetables, mostly. Not very exciting.

[aforethought]

Give you that. Not sure starvation's much better, but piss if it don't liven things up a little.

[outil]

No, I would not say that it is. Better a bored farmer than any starving person.

[aforethought]

That why you're a murderer now?

[ she's a creature of grace and subtlety ]

Got tired of it, or got hungry?

[outil]

[He chuckles dryly.]

No. I'm afraid I killed first. Farming came later.

[aforethought]

But sure didn't come to stay.

[outil]

No. It didn't. Farming was temporary, and ended years ago for me.
