Note: I work Mon-Fri and I'm basically away 11 hours a day but I do tags in gdocs and I try to do a round a night. Timezone is GMT.

[A soft noise escapes, unasked for, unbidden. People might want her to talk about and she can't. She already knows that with a sickly as of panic settling over her.]

It was no one's fault, you have nothing to apologise for. [And didn't I know some piece of it already and want to hide it away under the floorboards of my heart of hearts?]

Anything that has to stay between you and I can stay that way, not even Korrin would know if it. Is something...is there some sort of trouble? Forgive me, I don't want to jump to conclusions but I don't know how else to take this right now.

Nothing troubling, I hope. I simply do not wish it to be a matter of attention.

My— my hope is to try and find some ways to improve things for the people of the alienage, and Darktown. I do not imagine to be able to attend and fix all, but I thought presenting tools and opportunity might help make greater differences in the long term. Reading and writing lessons, trying to link the willing to those that might offer them apprenticeships they'd otherwise not have access to, within the Inquisition. I thought perhaps— I thought it might be a matter of some interest. Swimming lessons, if you've the time, or... should the Inquisition move to start building a fleet, perhaps opportunities to learn more of ships and their construction?

Ah, I see! Apprenticeship is common at home, especially for trades or on the ships, I can understand the desire to keep it away from too many eyes although... everyone talks. People know Inquisition agents, on official business or not but a chance to do things without it being tied to the politics would make a change.

[A polite lie; everything is political, everyone will read what they wish to from this.]

The weather is changing, swimming won't be so awful va prospect and it does the body good. That and I've been looking to organise new boats being built for if we ever need to rescue folk at sea. It might be a good learning experience. It's good of you to organise this Herian.

I understand. I am not ashamed of the work, and I believe it can be done so it will draw no negative attention to the Inquisition - especially if human children are amongst those being taught - but I wish not to render it, or of any potential students, as spectacles. Subtlety will allow it better chances of success.

It is what is right, and no more. ( Don't praise her for basic decency, she may implode. )

Nothing in Thedas will improve without education. It's the only way to change… [A sigh, unseen to Herian that Araceli forcibly rolls her shoulders back as she gathers up loose sheet music to set by her lute, a quiet shuffle of pages.] Many things. More people working together, cooperating, lending skills--

It'd be good. For a lot of people.

[dashing]

Hopefully so.

I will not keep you from your work. Thank you for your time, and I will keep you appraised of developments going forward.

If you should change your mind on the offer of aid?
