Captain Flint, do you actually not understand any of my other complaints? You're far cleverer than that. Don't play stupid like I'm so dull that playing stupid will be enough to make me rethink my position.
I don't care what your complaints are. I don't care what your position is. [It’s bluntly stated, abruptly clipped of his earlier irritation.]
What I care about is seeing the war, once it reaches Tevinter, empowering people who have long been without it. You can either contribute to that, or you can continue to be convinced that there are monsters waiting for you in every shadow.

Give me the names of your contacts and the methods with which you communicate. If you refuse to provide them, I will discuss this with the Scoutmaster and Lady de la Fontaine directly.
If you wouldn't trust her to save Nascere - if you don't think her your equal in that quest - then how dare you ask me to trust her to see to the liberation of the slaves? Your little bit of land - d'you think that's worth more than them?

Go in front of everyone from Nascere and declare to them that she's the hope for rescuing your home. Give her true command of your ships.
