WHO: Coupe + Gervais, Yseult, Lakshmi, Teren WHAT: Back 2 Kirkwall WHEN: Now-ish, some prompts backdated WHERE: Kirkwall/Vaguely Orlais NOTES: HMU on plurk if you want something.
It is something she's heard, but never has Teren been expected to care. And though she's a spite-fueled anarchist with seemingly nothing to gain by playing nursemaid to an organized militia, it's... actually more difficult not to care, these days.
"Then I imagine you shall have it," she replies, in a low and joyless tone. A pause, then, "...forgive me if I'm ignorant of military protocol. My experience is." She clears her throat, almost awkwardly. "...somewhat less refined."
If she had her way, all the Wardens would be tree-climbing experts, and they'd know all the best places to stick a knife. One might say such arts are wasted on Darkspawn.
The look she turns over wrinkles briefly bizarre, as though Teren's begun speaking in some foreign tongue. A moment to catch up, to consider the reservation more seriously,
Still. What the shit.
"Our refined allies," Antiva, sure. But mostly Orlais, and 'allies' is a more politic word than her patriotism will lately allow, but Teren's just apologized — "Are dying en masse."
"Fuck refinement." She shakes her head. "We’ve too much to see done."
That finally yields a smirk, and Teren feels a little more at home. If there's one thing she's good at, it's not dying, and to a lesser degree not letting the people around her die either.
"In that case," she muses, and stops, thinking silently for several long moments. When she speaks again, her tone is a testing one. "The prisoner, Samson. An expert on red lyrium, isn't he?"

"I'm off," she announces, clapping Wren on the back (hopefully not making her choke), "got things to do."
