Christine's lips twitch because she is not, in fact, an enchanter, as she never took on an apprentice at Montsimmard. But she certainly isn't about to correct him, because without that, she'd have no title at all.
"How kind of her to ask. Family is important in these times of trouble." Of course, being a mage, she hasn't spoken to her own in over fifteen years, but all this war and uncertainty is making her want to reach out to them.
Christine has no idea how to navigate the strict code of the Game, but she doubts Aleron does either. And if there is one thing she knows, it's that this woman will stomp all over them if they aren't careful. And so she'll stick with what she knows (and probably further irritate her in the process).
"And these are troubled times. No doubt you've heard of the troubles that have come down upon Sahrnia. Villagers taken prisoner and forced to mine out red lyrium for the templars, or Red Templars as we've taken to calling them. They are something wholly new and very dangerous, not just to the Inquisition, but to all, like those villagers. Our research will deal with studying this red lyrium to see what properties it contains so we can exploit any weakness these Red Templars might have and therefore save many lives in the process." That last sentence leaves her a bit breathless.
