I expected that there would be more for us to do, if we are indeed here for a war. Not for us to sit and idly wait until these monarchs have need of us.

[ Spoken like someone who doesn't trust them, she has little respect for those who use kidnapping to force others to fight for them. She's not used to this, not having things to do. Despite losing her shield, and the bit with the imps and fae last month - Aveline feels, well. Restless. Unsure of what to do with herself, and she doesn't like it. Might as well try to make something of it. ]

If anyone in Caer Glaem is trained with a sword, I wouldn't mind a partner or two to cross blades with. And if there are those who would like to learn, I'm not against giving you a bit of training, assuming you can provide your own gear. I could honestly do with something other than waiting around for whatever is to happen next.

One last thing, I'm having trouble contacting a friend of mine, in the other castle. Messages have not gone through, I was hoping someone could let me know if they have seen her? Marian Hawke. Short black hair, blue eyes, and a tendency to make terrible jokes at every turn.

Scouting. Working on fortifying the castle. Training those who don't know what they're doing.

[ So you're off to a good start, Aveline. ]

Exactly. And Caer Glaem's already been attacked twice in as many months -- first time by giant worms, second time by Unseelie forces.

I'll help as I can.

[ Not to impress the monarchs or because she wants to be a part of the war. One out of three isn't bad. ]

... did you just say giant worms?

[ Kirkwall has spiders, this place has worms. Just no end to giant slimy creatures, is there? ]

Yeah. Poisonous bites and they'd regenerate, so you had to burn them. They were a pain in the ass.

Sounds like quite a good time. [ sarcasm, because it's true that she'd rather have stuff to deal with. just... not here. ]

What about the Unseelie. You said they've attacked once.

Nice way to remind everyone that this isn't a vacation, at least.

Yeah. [ He sighs. ] They used magic to disguise themselves and get in the castle. Lit lots of fires and let a giant bear wreck shit.

It would certainly serve as an adequate reminder, I think. If we haven't forgotten that vacation tends to be a bit more voluntary than this is.

That... sounds thrilling.

Depends on the vacation.

[ Snort. ] It was certainly something.
