Though still reeling from political crises and the loss of Divine Justinia, the Chantry remains the most powerful institution in Thedas, and its relationship with the Inquisition has always been ambiguous at best. It is imperative that the Inquisition work to clarify and improve that relationship lest the Chantry turn its considerable influence against the organization. Working with the Chantry is also the Inquisition's best hope of shaping the ultimate outcome of the Mage/Templar conflict and the future of both the Circles and the Templar Order.
While it grieves me to hear of the losses suffered in the evacuation, I thank the Maker that you saw the survivors through to safety. I will send word to Skyhold concerning messeres Ornol and Torrald, and Ser Barbary.
Our Grey Wardens have substantial experience in fighting darkspawn and may offer some insight into diverting them away from vulnerable civilians in such cases as this. I will put the question to them. Doing so properly may require more detail from all of you on what happened--but those discussions can wait until you've had time and space to recover from your ordeal.
If there is anything I or this office might do to aid that recovery at this time, it is yours. The Chantry looks after her own.

PS: Will the bear take thanks in the form of honeycomb?
I can't figure out where my head's at right now, but I'll pass that along to Simon and Galatea.
The big guy's lumbered back to the woods, I think. Once we could see Kirkwall, he peeled off. I'm sure he'd love some honeycomb, but I might need to go out looking. He's one of them great bears, though, so I don't want to exhaust your supply.

Take all the time you need. And thank you.
I'll see what I can do. We need all the allies we can
gtget of late.
