[That quiets him a bit (not that he'd been especially otherwise before). He inclines his head, for all he knows Thranduil can't see, and thinks it through.]
If you are sure. Weapons, then?
[Given the tendency of Thranduil's earlier question.]
[The pause isn't hesitation, precisely. Romain is a deliberate man, and seldom inclined to say yes to anything at all without weighing it.]
Yes, if you like. At least as long as we're all in Kirkwall. However things play out, Thomas and his brother will be facing a world in a different shape than the one they were born into. More knowledge may give them an edge they will need.
[Romain plans to make them the best players of the Game he can with the time he has left, and he has some more practical skills to pass on. But Orlais is invaded, and the Chantry is in danger of splintering. It's an unorthodox time, and a bit of flexibility wouldn't go amiss.]
Thomas is serious but bright. He'll push back if he thinks he needs to, but not simply to demonstrate his independence, as a rule. Raoul takes his brother's lead, still; we'll see how long that lasts.
