I don't know whether to be grateful that nothing repaired stays fixed forever or frustrated. One the one hand, it keeps me in a job, on the other it means that there's an awful lot of running around Zion.

I thought this might be an easier way to find out where I'm needed. I can do repairs to cooling and venting systems in your homes and have some training as an electrician. A lot of the major repairs come through dispatch but if you happen to realize your system isn't working as well as it ought too but hasn't reached failure yet, I can help out with those during my free time.

My name is Blight. You can contact me here or message me privately.


[A pause, he adds:]


Yes, I realize how pathetic it is that my first post here is an advertizement. Hopefully I'll have more interesting things to say in the future.

I'm not exactly a Chantry scholar and I've never been north of the Marches, but wasn't it Tevinter mages who brought the Blight to Thedas?

It's not that I disagree with you on that last point; I'm the last person to argue in defense of systematic injustice. It just sounds to me like you're equating the Magisterium to the machines.

[altsolani]

That's a valid point. Perhaps I am.

[After a moment, he adds,]

My father was a Magister. He wanted to change things for the better. When I got sick, he was driven mad trying to find a cure.

What does your father have to do with it? Why are you telling me this?

1/2 (sorry for the edit!)

[altsolani]

Because it's a good reminder that not all of a group considered evil always is evil, and that they have reasons for what they do.

I'm sorry. You have me something to think about. I only meant to respond positively to it rather than being defensive.

Can I start over?

You're the first person I've met who knows that Thedas is. It's made me nervous.

[Not to mention talking to a Gray Warden adds a whole new level of confusion that has Blight thinking about things and only saying half of them.]

[ Anders is still wary of anyone who would compare the Tevinter Imperium to the mass genocide and enslavement of the human race by literally soulless machines, because it's a bit too much like something Fenris would say... but he relents in his irritated arguments, at least. ]

How long have you been here?

[altsolani]

A while, but I spent a lot of time in the hospital recovering. I haven't spoken to many unplugged.

[dissent]

We're not the only ones from Thedas.

Recovering from what?
