[filtered to magic users/interested touchy-feely parties - this is posted later in the evening on saturday]

Good news! For those who desired a spritz of calming lavender to assuage the need for a fainting couch over Stuff to be Touched, I assure you that all is well after our first meeting with a newly discovered local coven, who specialize in blood rituals and necromancy (which is also my specialty, though admittedly I've never used blood to Get It Done, as it were). As you may know, we've already established rapport with most of the other local covens, by way of our Outlander coven - Beketh also took some time to warm up to a group of enthusiastic interlopers eager to show off their magic, who would have thought?

We had a pleasant conversation with the new coven called Asetnerra, however, and they are open to meeting more of us. Though we asked kindly for them to dial down the dramatics and simply send a letter next time, should they wish to communicate, because. Well. No one wants a repeat of the Touching the Stuff controversy.

	What does the fainting couch look like? I need to know that before reclining on it. But yes, concern very much needed, I don't apologize, I'll tell you stories of leaving blood runes for people in exchange for good wine. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It's sort of L-shaped, I believe? They're quite distinguished looking. Offer accepted, however! I've plenty of good wine to share in exchange for stories. We're brimming with it at Skyhold. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hm, I am not sure. I haven't fainted once so if I'm going to it has to be on quite the piece of furniture.

You're an adult who can make your own decisions but you are also lucky it didn't melt your brain and ruin your facial hair. That's not me being sensitive that's me saying that in our world, if you try to interact with blood runes and don't have the ability, at best it doesn't work. That's all I'll say!

I always enjoy dramatic furniture that makes for good conversation pieces.

It's a bit different in Thedas, most any mage can learn the specialization of blood magic, just as I imagine it's different in every world including this one - but I certainly respect your input, as a skilled blood mage in your own right. It was actually partly who inspired me to go along with this, in a way, which may sound backward, but - hearing about your use of blood magic made me want to learn more. And not necessarily shun it the way I once might used to do.

	I'm glad I don't have to avenge you. You sure you're good? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I probably would've ripped arms off, figure out how to rage properly. Dorian: I don't mind meeting with them, I'm just double-checking because I worry? You've had bad brushes with blood magic, so I'm just making sure you're not just being diplomatic to not cause any problems? I'm not saying they might be bad, but I'm just thinking about how you're feeling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They just seemed reaaalllly out of social interaction practice to me. (Reply to this) (Thread)
