[...A long sigh.]

I want to argue with you, but I know that is the guilt talking.

[Quiet for a moment.]

I don't think anything will ever clear my soul. But at least, in this, I can do something right.

[justice_is_blond]

And now we've an understanding.

[Not one he'd expected to reach with a Templar. Thrask had changed for the good, but not due to realizing he was a problem. It had been having a daughter that changed him, which had also begged the question, forever unanswered, of how much consent the mother had been able to give.]

There is no bringing back those we've murdered. There is only making the world better so it does not happen again.

[judgemewhole]

[Make it better, so it doesn't happen again. Anders understood more clearly than he realized - and for the first time - James understood that Anders did regret. He just didn't keep himself there.]

Quite.

[There is a moment of silence.]

... how will you raise money, for your school?

[justice_is_blond]

[He's glad Norrington doesn't dwell. It's not an easy topic for anyone to delve into, and while they now understand each other some, Anders doesn't feel like spilling his heart to the man.]

I've... some connections. The Templars found and killed most of my network prior to the end of matters in Kirkwall, but not everyone is gone. There are some mages I helped get out, some others that I'd healed who felt grateful. I'm putting the network back together again, though it's a slower process this time.

I'm also planning on making and selling extra potions, and I'm open to other suggestions. Ink and parchment are not the most inexpensive of things.

[There is a moment of thoughtful silence, before there is a nod.]

I might know some people who can help -- and beyond that ... I know of a way to fund this school. All are welcome, yes? Human, elf, dwarf, qunari?

[justice_is_blond]

[Funding and someone people would see as legitimate, both in one day? If Anders was the praying sort, he'd say there might be an answer to prayers here. But he's not, so he won't.]

All, yes. Anyone who wishes to learn will not be turned away, so long as they don't attack or harm other students.

[judgemewhole]

[He nodded his head more seriously before he stated something simply.]

Then we should be able to get you everything you need. As long as you do not care where it comes from.

[justice_is_blond]

Funding is funding.

[He has no reason to ask about the sources. It's not coming from murdering mages or elves, so he's fine.]

It will accomplish good, and I'm going to assume gathering it isn't accomplishing something bad. I'm currently on an errand in the Hinterlands, but when I've returned we can speak further, and in person, if you'd like.

[judgemewhole]

Well that is true.

[Although now he was going to be a little concerned about whether or not they had Carta money thrown in ... ]

Very well. I will see you when you return.
