Action: Wonderduck
When: Daytime

I've heard of a few people finding surprises in the cargo bays of their ships and it seems it's my turn. I wanted to share them - especially for those of us from Thedas.

[He turns then, and shows what he was given. It is a collection of books. He's managed to get them into his room and has them organized by publish date. The first one has the title The Dasher's Men and the last declares itself The Inquisitor Lavellan Story. The only thing stopping this from being a complete collection is the missing copy of Tale of the Champion.]

The nearly complete works of one Varric Tethras. I even have the newest part to Swords and Shields for those of us who like silly romances.

[He smiles in a way that hints he's remembering something fondly.]

I am of course willing to let others borrow them, provided they're treated well. Each one is signed by the author to me and I like having a reminder of home.

[Even more so when the reminder is that somewhere out there his friends actually know him. After a moment, he addresses his shipmates,]

Thank you for everyone on the Wonderduck who helped me get them to my room. They turned out to be rather heavy. Someone needs to tell Varric to write shorter books...

Where to be begin then? I was born in 9:19 Dragon?

Oh! Well, how .... old ... are you then?

Twenty-six. I was twenty-two when I was made Inquisitor.

I see ... you have lived a very hard life, for one so young, Cyril. I commend your strength of character and your ability to smile through so much.

[After all he was without an arm!]

...so what is an Inquisitor?

A leader, of sorts. The Inquisition was founded during a time of strive and chaos. The Inquisitor leads it.

Oh I see! So you are a great hero then!

I would say that my people were the heroic ones... but I get the feeling if any of them where here they would agree with you.

I see ... well. I agree with me, so that is all that is important.

Yes. That is important.

I should probably agree with you as well, considering you're the leader now.

I am glad you agree!

But ah, do not agree just because I am the leader.

Then I'll agree on my own then.

It's good to know you aren't interested in dictating.

Oh honestly, it's really nothing though.

It's not nothing that you aren't letting power get to your head! Not everyone can say that.

Yes, well. Some people are not suited for Leadership roles.
