Okay so. First of all HI EVERYONE IN GROUP THREE. :D :D :D :D I am excited and happy.
Second of all - Vi, Thren, and Darrian are currently all together on her boat. I am not sure if they should be separated before everyone meets up with them for plot purposes? Or not. I guess we will work that out. Vi and Thren, I am sure, will likely be together, but Darrian may or may not be off by that point in time (up to Darrian <3). Thren and Vi would probably even become unattached at the hip. Maybe >.>
It makes the most ease of sense that they could be met in Denerim (there's water and a port nearby) OR if there's going to be lots happening in Denerim, I am perfectly amenable to actually meeting them later. Vi drops off freed slaves in the Brecelian Forest from time to time to meet with the Dalish. It could easily make sense that she didn't meet her normal rendezvous with Merrill's clan (because hey, Faer isn't there! Or something!) and thus escorted freed slaves herself through the forest, so it could be an exceptionally random meeting of a pirate and a giant in the middle of the woods.
Or even something else! I am basically always up for anything with plot/humor/ease of storytelling/random potential.
Questions/comments/preferences? Also if I was supposed to just declare something I apologize >.> but I want to do what's best, and currently I don't know what that might be. Based on whatever it is, I can come up with Based on that, I can come up with scenes/subplot/meeting ideas
