[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.

And I can accept that.

[ She listens as he speaks, nodding along as he lists off his skills. It's what she would expect for an assassin with the skill she's been told he possesses. Again, she's reminded of Zevran--but she shoves it out of her mind. His personality couldn't be more different if he were actively trying.

Which is probably for the best. ]

There is a project dedicated to dealing with red lyrium. I believe you were contacted by the head of the project? That would be your best bet in learning to deal with them. As for dealing with interrogations, I don't foresee that being an issue any time soon.

[ Which is for the best. Beleth would be as reluctant to order it as Thane seems to be to do it. ]

How are you in combat if the enemy is aware of you, and ready to fight against you? I know this is not a situation that you would often find yourself in, but...Speaking from experience, you can never be sure of what kind of situation you'll find yourself in, working for the Inquisition.

...Yes. I have been contacted by her.

[He'll get to the red lyrium part, in case it was not listed by his former handler.]

Normally, if I am infiltrating but discovered, I remove the problem immediately. Kill, hide the body, move on. I am not concerned about the enemy noticing me, rare as it is; they do not notice for much longer, typically.

[ That's not quite what she meant, but she's unsure if Thane is purposely avoiding the question, or if she just didn't ask it well enough. Either way, she decides to shrug it off. If he ends up in open combat, he'll probably be fine. ]

Excellent. Now, I have a request--Though I want to make it clear that this is entirely optional. I have many people in my division, with a variety of past experience. I try to make sure those who are more inexperienced have access to resources to help them.

I was wondering if you would be willing to teach others in the division some of your skills. You needn't share...everything. Weapon proficiency, infiltration, whatever you think would aid them out in the field. What and who you teach, I leave to your discretion.

I would graciously accept, Lady Ashara. I am here to assist in whatever way the Inquisition deems best; if it is to share a set of my skills to others to help their survival, then I will do that.

I will ensure those who learn truly are the ones who need it most.

Thank you, Thane. That's very helpful, I'm glad that I'll have more people around to be able to aid our less experienced members. I'll be sure to have them come meet with you, and you can choose whether or not to aid them.

That's all the questions I had for you. Do you have any for me...?
