WHO: Samouel Gareth and ANYONE
WHAT: A lots happened since the Fallow Mire. Sam reflects and keeps busy before getting shipped out again.
WHEN: Between returning from Fallow Mire and leaving for War Table operations
WHERE: Skyhold
NOTES: Just the usual.

{Magic Lessons - Before/During/After}
Even though Fallow Mire had been trying, it doesn't mean that he can just take a break from his lessons. Sam is progressing with his Spirit magic with the help of Lady LeBlanc, as well as learning to control Ice spells to a point, though having difficulty. He's also trying to get the grasp on Storm magic with the help of Roul.


{The Armory}
With the new shipment of ores from the Fallow Mire there have been numerous orders for armor and weapons. Seeing as his sparring lessons with Krem have been put on hold for now for... reaons, he spends most late afternoons/early evenings helping with the forges.


{The Library}
He's still having issues falling asleep since the bog so Sam spends a good amount of time in the library in the evenings. That's not the only thing keeping him up. There are a number of crumpled up papers on the floor as he tries to figure out what to say in a letter.

“So? What does being a nobleman or not matter? Everyone should be given aid to find their loved ones, especially so in times such as this. Traders come this way and that, merchants too, you could even put a notice on the board to ask anyone going to that area to just keep an ear out.”

Dammit Sam she’s getting to the point of asking the names herself to pay some poor sod to go off and do it; if all those she holds dear are a world away so she can’t write to them then she will damn well help you write to your loved ones.

"I didn't mean they thought less of myself or anyone who wasn't noble. Just doesn't seem like it would be something high on the priority when we're fighting a war and politics. But talking to merchants or putting up a notice does sound like a good idea if I don't get a return letter. Thanks."

He's not afraid to ask for help, he's just not very used to asking for help on something like this.

"Forgive me, I've had some less than savoury dealings with the nobility and not even from those I've stolen from who do have some grounds for speaking to me as they do. Too many look down on the commoners or the peasants, whatever one they think of as more 'proper' to say in polite company." Most of those were all within the last year, the thinly-veiled sneers and jokes about a common girl guarding a queen, enough to get under her skin and have her with balled fists at the end of a long night. "If you require help greasing the wheels with merchants, I know a trick or two. Always flatter them. Handsome and charming as you are, that shouldn't be too difficult."

"That... well that probably does happen a lot, though I don't deal with nobles myself." Never had to with his small village or being in the Circle. And again with the handsome and charming bit. That brings a bit of red to Sam's cheeks as he leans on the table, resting his chin in a hand. "Well I don't think I have that issue with one merchant because of that. If I need help with anyone else though I'll be sure to call you over."
