Warden,

As you have agreed to be so helpful, I could hardly refuse the opportunity to return the favor. Were I to provide a biography for myself, I might pen the following:

'Miss Wysteria Poppell, late of Imperial Kalvad and presently known as a Rifter in Thedas, is a longtime member of Riftwatch's Research Division. Her focus of study is primarily on the subject of Rift Research. In her leisure time, she enjoys competitive croquet and archery.'

Mr. Ellis assists myself and Misters Stark and Fitz in our field work. Apologies for not integrating that more cleverly.

Best Wishes,

Warden Digiorno,

How fantastic a coincidence! We were only just the other day discussing the Anderfels and the Wardens there; I will make a point of pressing Mr. Ellis for the relevant details.

As to the question of our research, myself and Misters Stark and Fitz aim to quantify Rifts and their connection to the Fade, and to the anchor shards many individuals within Riftwatch and abroad possess, in addition to exploring the similarities between Rifters, their worlds, and Thedas. The former endeavor assists in pinpointing how and where the Veil is weakened, and may be used to help anticipate where a Rift is likely to open so areas might be evacuated and the weakness safely dealt with before any harm comes to pass, et cetera et cetera. The latter - the question of Rifters and their worlds - is to gain a greater understanding of how things are pulled through the Fade and made manifest through the Rift in the hopes that it might somehow be controlled. People are hardly the only things to fall from Rifts, and it is my hope (if it is not too heretical to suggest) is that with time we might learn how to draw other things through which might aid the war effort.

There is nothing similar to a Rift in Kalvad, however the concept of the Fade is not entirely foreign to me and indeed seems to be familiar in theory to many Rifters. If you are curious, I will happily send along copies of a recent survey we conducted which covers these concepts.

Thank you also for your most excellent self summary. I cannot claim any proclivities toward physical exertion, but should you ever find yourself in need of a sparring partner for your seconds and third points then I would be most happy to oblige you.

Warden Digiorno,

Happily, there has been some suggestion that it would be a matter of replicating the lunch rather than making away with it in its entirely.

Your gracious offer of assistance is most welcome. I doubt there will be too much work to do, but can hardly bring myself to refuse the offer of an able pair of hands. I will be in contact once we wander closer to the date in question.

Warmest Regards,
Wysteria A. Poppell
