Cullen straightened, then slowly rose to his feet. He was in the main yard of Skyhold all right, but there were telling differences even beyond the troubling sky. The greenery hadn't all been stripped away, for one. The Herald's blood red banners were nowhere to be seen. The tavern still stood, and the high parapets were bare of their bristling defenses.
If he could ignore the tempest going on above his head, it almost seemed...peaceful. Like it was before things started going so wrong.
He turned in a slow circle, chains clanking, and silently noted the changes--then went perfectly still when he heard a footfall.

"So, let's make it happen. If we want some edge, we can't stay here waiting for our plans to complete themselves."

He looked forward to the labor, really. Something useful to do, wear himself out, and then go see about the tavern for drinking himself into a deep, black sleep after.
(OOC: Do we want to wrap up this thread? Assume that Cullen is inventorying, Neria has gone to try to make friends with other mages, and Alistair is busy fetching and carrying?)
