Whatever you think best. You know him better than I- how out of character this is was what worried me.

[judgemewhole]

I understand. We all have our triggers, unfortunately Alayre's is very close to his faith. Mine is blood mages. If he feels he cannot currently take care of his duties -- then I will ... well I won't be happy as I hate politics, but I'll stand in regardless.

[fleurdesel]

Welcome to my life since the formation of the Council. [ There is a crackle of laughter on her end, weak but present. ] I would not say the tone of this announcement is mine but- it all felt very familiar.

[judgemewhole]

[A faintly dry smirk on his end, before there's the sound of his hand scrapping down his face.] Then we have a problem.

[fleurdesel]

One I trust you will handle with all due consideration. [ James is a little frustrating like that, the being considerate. ]

[judgemewhole]

I promise you, Adelaide, it will e taken care of immediately. [He can promise that, at least.]

[fleurdesel]

Thank you, James. Truly.

Hours later

[judgemewhole]

Please inform the Mage Council that I will be standing in for Knight Commander Alayre as your standing representative with the New Templar Order, and all questions, concerns, and requests should come through my desk.

[fleurdesel]

Merci.

[ There's a rustling of fabric and a slosh of liquid in a bottle- wine most likely as she shifts where she's settled. ]

They will be duly informed.

[judgemewhole]

Very good.

[Exhausted as he is, he manages a tired smirk that comes through his voice.]

And save some wine for the rest of us.

[fleurdesel]

There will be plenty Fereldan wine for you, James.

[judgemewhole]

That is just cruel, Adelaide. That might as well be grape juice doused heavily with water.

[fleurdesel]

I suppose as we are...friendly associates now I can spare a bottle or two of proper Orlesian wine. Likely you are as in dire need of it as I.

[judgemewhole]

Oh, like you would not believe. Your kindness is heavily appreciated.

[fleurdesel]

[ True to her word one of her students makes their way to Norrington's desk, a bottle of Orlesian wine with a simple card attached. It reads: 'Thank you- A. LeBlanc' ]

[judgemewhole]

[There is a note sent back, which simply states, Thank you.]
