Political ones. I mentioned the Freemen of the Dales, and they were very excited—but I have not told them your name yet, so if you would rather not, they won't be able to find you.
Franz and Zora—they are siblings—they are here from the Anderfels. They work in the foundries now, but Franz has a lot of opinions, and Zora has a lot of ideas. And Ivo Gare, he is from Kirkwall. He is more their friend than mine, but I like him.
They really like they no crown, no nobles part of the Freemen of the Dales. I thought you might be able to tell them about the ways it went wrong. Things for them to keep in mind while they are dreaming.
They already think a better world has to be better for the elves, too, [ he adds, ] or I would not be asking you to endure them at all.

What are their names, if you don't mind my asking?

Bastien, I’ve had a thought in my head that won’t seem to go away. I hope you’ll tell me if it’s foolish.
