The loveliest in Thedas. There is color everywhere. And music! A song on every street. If you ever have the chance to go, you must let me know so I can tell you where to visit.
I will of course report to you at once should the opportunity arise.
[She's smiling; it's very obvious from the sound of her voice.]
Unfortunately however, even the loveliest of descriptions and most steadfast advice are unlikely to allow you to escape the requirement of those two or three sentences, Monsieur.
I'm very sorry to hear it. [But let's not linger on dead parents; there are far more pleasant things to discuss!] Are you much for parties on Satinalia? I have great hopes that we will have no reason to go fighting our way through Nevarran cities this year, and so there might be a little something organized in the Gallows proper. In which case, what would you estimate the likelihood that you might play at such an affair, and at what rate might you be bribed for a particular sort of tune or two if such a coincidence were to come to pass?
I am much for parties any day, and if there is to be music, I am confident I can elbow my way in. As for bribery—I suppose it depends. What songs were you thinking?
Truthfully, the particular song matters less than the meter for the dances in question. Forgive me - I know it must be awful to say such a thing to a musician. But my designs are entirely to do with the dancing in questions, and I have my eye on one those dreadfully dull slow things where the only point is to turn slowly in a circle, and a saltarello.
I see. Delightful. And I don't think that will be very difficult to arrange, so for bribery... if I think of something else for Satinalia, a game or a gift exchange—can I ask you to help me arrange it?

[ A little caught out. But he doesn't really mind. ]
When I have a moment to sit, I will write them down for you, ouais? In the book. So you may continue to rest your hands.

[Oh, but--]
While I have you Monsieur, would you mind terribly if I took the opportunity to propose a second rather more incidental scheme to you?
