[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.

I have skill with swords and daggers, but none with a bow. Would you be able to teach how to better defend against such ranged weapons?

[nugqueen]

I could, yes. Learning to shoot one is actually harder than learning to dodge the arrows themselves. Once you get a feel of how their trajectory works, it isn't too hard to understand.

[foxpas]

That would help immensely. Will that help with guns, as well?

[nugqueen]

Ah, unfortunately - I'd prefer to focus on more basic weapons until I've spoken with my captain at length about that one. I'd prefer he be made aware if I take anything specifically from our armory for such a thing.

[And she's not about to go shooting someone with it just to teach them to dodge... goodness.]

[foxpas]

... I see. That makes sense.

[She sounds very disappointed, but she understands, at least.]

Ah, though, if you have need of another instructor for the sword, I may offer my services.

[nugqueen]

I would appreciate that immensely. If I find somewhere for us to work with others who wish to learn and if my Captain is agreeable to your request, you'll be the first to hear it.

[foxpas]

I look forward to it. There are places on the Iskaulit to train, but I do not know if any would be spacious enough for a class.
