This would be a good moment to remind you all that you do have limits, regardless of whether they're physical or emotional. There is no shame in taking the day, or even one hour to yourself - chances are that someone equally skilled will be able to fill in.

Even I wouldn't be able to fight two dragons back to back and come out of it emotionally or physically, unscathed. Do take a minute. Take a shower. Eat. Check in with your loved ones and friends.

In other news, if you see Sam Wilson down in the infirmary, I have prescribed him bed rest, so please do restrain him and escort him back to his bedchamber.

I want at least six hours of sleep from you, Sam.

	I saw. Have you told Christine? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mouthyasever 2020-01-26 04:24 pm UTC (link)
	No. Should I? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	solona 2020-01-26 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	Probably. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Agreed. No sense in fighting at half strength. Creates liabilities. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	You're quite right. I've put sleeping potions inside the meals of my troops before, but I personally draw the line at singing lullabies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You did not strike me as a bard. You're tolerable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	solona 2020-01-26 01:12 pm UTC (link)
	I don't have a voice that was meant to sing. But bards in my world are often assassins, spies or saboteurs. And perhaps one day, you'll hear Leliana sing. She has a lovely voice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... Hard to imagine the one I knew being any number of those things. At least not successfully I'd prefer that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps that is a facade. Yeah. I've homesick for years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofrivia 2020-01-26 01:31 pm UTC (link)
	Not likely. Can't say I remember mine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've been told I was born in Kirkwall, The City of Chains. But my Circle was in Ferelden, and it's the place I miss most. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like a better place than the Continent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	solona 2020-01-26 01:41 pm UTC (link)
	Not necessarily. In ten years, it's lived through a Blight, a Templar-Mage uprising, a hole in the sky and I'm sure there will be more. But I imagine it's not kept of the beauty of the land. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't say I'm familiar with what feels nostalgically like home, but I would imagine any flaws would be overlooked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You do not have a base of operations? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofrivia 2020-01-26 01:48 pm UTC (link)
	Not one I reflect upon fondly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, yes. Every time I go to Weisshaupt, the First Warden breaks his nose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Did you train others? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	solona 2020-01-26 01:54 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. But Grey Wardens rescue our future members from a hangman's noose, pyres, and chopping blocks. Most of them aren't what you'd call upstanding members of society. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofrivia 2020-01-26 01:56 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not considered an upstanding member of society. Doesn't matter. I've a proposition, then, Solona. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	solona 2020-01-26 01:57 pm UTC (link)
	Well, that certainly explains why I like you. Alright. What do you propose? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have little to offer this place other than my expertise. Before, I came from a school of witchers. I'd like to do that here. Not make my kind, but train those with potential already here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
