[ :grimace: ]

With or without my armor?

[notathreat]

Both?

[heorte]

It's hard to be stealthy in plate armor. [ so, 1. ] Easier if I'm without it, but that comes with it's own drawbacks. Why?

[notathreat]

We've got an assignment together. You, me and somebody named Hugo. Ever been to the Minanter River area?

[heorte]

Aye, but not for some time. Are we meant to see if Tevinter is shoring up for an sweep into the Marches?

[notathreat]

Yeah, and check their coverage in that area. Enemy presence assessment, guess you could call it. We're also looking to build out there, so we've got a few stops to make, see if it's worth it.

[That's going to be a rough sell unless it's remote or hidden enough, or they really do find it empty.]

[heorte]

Alright. You'd like me to come with you?

[notathreat]

You okay with that?

[heorte]

Aye. I'll come.

[notathreat]

Awesome.

[Is that relief in her voice?]

I'll get Hugo on board. Any ideas for how we should... y'know, do this? I've done recon stuff before, but never anything super official.

[heorte]

Start with a map, mark out the territory we think is most promising then focus our scrutiny there. We needn't comb every inch of land.

[notathreat]

We've got one and a few prospective build sites to check out, so. Guess we have our first step.

You wanna take horses, or should I saddle up Artichoke?

[The less stealthy option to be sure, but also possibly more effective.]

[heorte]

I don't see why we shouldn't take both, and make the most of the opportunity to surveil the territory. You're light enough to ride horseback behind me, or Hugo, and leave Artichoke to fly high and out of sight if need be.

[notathreat]

Would leave both my hands free for a bow, too.

Sounds like a plan.
