Meeting Orsino

Kirkwall, Dragon 9:31, Justinian  

The Circle of Kirkwall is not the Circle of Ferelden. I do not like this place. The Magi are twitchy. It is not a safe place. There are so many Tranquil. The Magi are so on edge, it is a wonder that any of them manage the Harrowing. I wonder if Irving can get at least some of them transferred.

Cullen is here. He seems to have recovered well. At the very least he no longer seems angry at all magi.

First Enchanter Orsino is a very tired man. He is a good man though. I'll need to figure out a cipher to communicate with him. Apparently the Templars read his correspondence. Which means no mention of Apostates or anything they would find suspect.

Still some confusion about why I am with the Wardens. Orsino said he would look into it and get in touch. In the meantime, business as usual I suppose.

Two favors owed so far. The price of peace, I suppose. Talking with Orsino did a lot to ease my mind.  Still, I miss my home and I miss my bed.
