The Doorway: a panfandom game

i did not think it possible, but i find myself incredibly bored. the lack of bandits and darkspawn and other murderous sorts has left me quite lazy. so, my love, i propose you and i go for a small journey out of this city. just for a few days, i promise. we should not leave alistair alone too long, after all.

I have been analyzing tainted and untainted blood from the Hawke brothers to isolate and identify what is responsible for the Calling that Grey Wardens eventually experience with the primary goal of developing a method to neutralize or suppress the Calling in Grey Wardens that arrive through the tesseract. I've eliminated pathogens (anything that causes disease) and immunoresponses (how your body fights off illnesses) between the brothers, and I believe I am close to identifying the taint. My writings tonight have twofold purpose.

First, I would like to confirm my hypotheses by also analyzing other samples of Grey Warden blood, to ensure that it is not simply the result of some illness Carver Hawke faced that Garrett Hawke did not and to analyze its effects on the body over time (to see what it looks like in further and less developed cases). I have no magical abilities with which to manipulate your blood, and I will not label or record any results using identifying information, for what good that will do given the small number of Grey Wardens here.

Second, the Stark Expo is coming up this month, and I do believe I could achieve results faster with input and discussion from other scientists. However, I will not discuss any results in public without express permission of everyone whose health could be affected by this information. I may also be able to present the information without identifying which world the disease comes from to offer further protection. But I will need to inquire about that, if you would like that to be a condition.

is there anything you need, my love?

Should any of you wish for something, you still have to pay. But I will make it first.

Leadership and nobles of Stark Charities and SWORD, my knowledge is lacking in regards to who should be contacted on this matter. The clothing shop in Potts Tower, Pepper's Closet, has an arrangement to receive the excess clothing articles no longer used and not wished to be kept in storage. I would like to make a similar arrangement with regards to other things. Namely, metals and non-metals I can use in a forge or for enchantment. The names thus far involved would incline me to Lady Pepper on that matter.

Further, should it be amenable to Ladies Carol and Abigail, I would like to make a further agreement with SWORD. Should such materials of unknown provenance come through the tesseract, I would like to offer my services first to use the materials to make something of value for you for only the cost of my workmanship. And should any of those materials not be of interest to you, that I be allowed to use them for those it does.

Thank you for your attention and consideration,
Caridin, of House Ortan

What do you think the chances are of us getting a weekend off at the same time and together? Or maybe we could ask Brand or Danvers if there's some special assignment in Vancouver or something.

Does it feel bizarre and annoyed when it comes across the painted elf?

I am beautiful, yes?

I am busy. It should run the store today.
