Who: Leliana
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: Planetside
When: Now

[Leliana decided to make this with a purpose and an idea in mind. When the feed turns on, she can be found wearing some light armor and gloves, holding a bow in her hands.]

It has come to my attention that perhaps my expertise with a bow and other weapons might be useful, should the need to defend ourselves ever arise again. I reside aboard the Blue Fish as one of her security officers and I believe, by extension, it is my duty to not only defend the ship, but to make sure her inhabitants and those of other ships can defend themselves properly.

Should anyone with inexperience with knives or bows wish it, I am willing to lend my services. I extend this particularly to the women aboard the fleet, purely because it has come to my attention there are some who do not find base means of defense accessible to them.

[Lookin' at you, Robb Stark.]

I do have some experience with a sword and shield, but I find myself willing to leave that in Riona Cousland's expert hands and I am sure she would be more than happy to lend tutelage in that realm of expertise should anyone ask her of it directly.

[She clears her throat a bit.]

There is a small matter of where I might find a suitable place to teach, but I will come to that when a decent interest is shown. Thank you, for your time, and I do hope others who feel eager to learn will come forward soon.

[It's a guy, but his voice is on the softer, higher pitched range.]

To teach archery or knives? Because I've been wondering about creating a dojo somewhere.

Yes, just-- somewhere open, but not quite so populated as the Iskaulit. I know there are businesses there and there could be empty spaces to teach various skills, but I want somewhere more concrete than just open space on the planet's surface each time we touch down upon one.

[a beat]

What would you wish to teach at this 'dojo' of yours?

I wonder if there isn't a way to combine several rooms, further away from the others on the Iskaulit... I haven't been able to explore it much myself yet.

[Because constant practice is important, especially where accuracy is necessary like with archery. He could stand to have a little practice at that himself, to be honest.]

I'm a swordsmanship teacher of the Tennen Rishin style, if that means anything to you. A master of the Japanese sword. For now I'm borrowing space at the current gym, but...

[He laughs lightly.]

Well, it would be nice to have a space that fit my specifications without need for worry of an errant blade harming anyone.

Ah. I can't say I'm familiar with any of that, but I'm sure if we put our heads together we could find a space for the both of us to make use of.

[She's familiar with swords just not... anything else he talked about. Par for the course with all this world hopping, really.]

Should I find anything, I can contact you if you wish? So far I've come up empty to suggestions of where on the Iskaulit we could go that might be free to use.

[He laughs lightly.]

Yes, of course. It seems to be an even split between those who know of it and those who do not.

But I would appreciate the contact. Should you need credits in order to pay for adjustments upon the Iskaulit, please let me know. I can give what I have in order to pay for a proper dojo again.

My name is Soujirou. And I'm on the Golden. [a beat] I mean, the Goldstone.

Typically, I prefer to be addressed as Sister Nightingale, but I believe, in this case, as we are developing a working relationship - you may call me Leliana.

[She's not about to tell him she's actually the head of a church back home. Having someone unfamiliar with the religion calling her Most Holy sounds ridiculous. It'd be like forcing the Daelish to address her as such when she isn't head of their faith.]

The Goldstone - that is the result of the two ships that crashed together, no? I saw it, but I'm amazed no one came out of it for the worse. Strange.

[He smiles and nods even though she can't see it.]

Leiliana-san then. I know one Nightingale already - I wasn't aware it was such a popular name.

And yes, that is the new ship created by us crashing into the Pathstone. It was....[He laughs] It was very strange to be a part of it. Everyone showed up with their weapons out, and someone else took the cake away because she thought it was going to poison us all.
