Leliana exhales, slow and measured, and faces Maria properly, rather than lingering half-turned towards the window.
"We have our work cut out for us, then, if this is the path we are to take."
She thinks, a moment, weighing up her next words. "Are there any you would trust within the Templar ranks?"
