"You do realize that this is not your territory that you are bargaining in. Skyhold is nothing like the Denirim you came from." Vala looked briefly turned to her honored guest, the once great Hero of Ferelden, before turning her attention back to the Tourney at hand. "It would be very wise for you, Grey Warden if you did not bet against m y men."
A smirk appeared briefly on the Inquisitors on her lips before fading away to the thin firm line that was normally set on her mouth. "Although I will not deny any coin you seem so eager and so willing to give up."
"Do you truly intend to stop me?" There was a bitter sound that fell between the woman's lips. "Just because I harbor the title of Inquisitor does not mean that I am not an able of if not worthy combatant. Call it unfair if you will but come morning's light my name will among the list for the competition just as any other man or woman who wishes to so.
Vala just stood there, her hands moving to her hips as she stared at the one standing before her. "Although you are more then welcome to try and stop me."

“You can’t be serious, Inquisitor.”
Sitting by her side in the stands, Dorian folds his arms over his chest and fixes her with the mother of all disbelieving stares. Never short of those when he’s around her, it seems.
“As much faith as I have in our dear Commander to keep us all safe at night, there’s no way his sword arm could ever compare to Cassandra’s. This is coming from someone who has seen her take on a dragon in single combat — well … more or less. I was bleeding on the ground at the time so you’ll have to forgive me for any mistakes in my recollection. There might have been others. Ah, but I’m getting off track. What I mean to say is: prepare to hand over all your coin.”
Now this was more like it.
Front and center, to be seen, no admired by all, why it was only something she had dreamed of since she was a little girl. It almost made her smile.
At Dorian's remark Vala clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth. "I truly doubt you expect me to hand over all my coin should you win. That seems a little extreme even for you." The man who now sat beside her wasn't just betting against her, but was betting against her C H A M P I O N. Cullen had insisted entering the tourney under such a title, and of course who was she to deny him.
While Cassandra may have been a more then capable combatant, the Inquisitor had faith in the man of which the fate of her coin depended on.
The Tevinter seemed so sure of his choice and yet there was one key notion he did not take into consideration. Her eyes never strayed from the competition that now took place before them yet the confidence she held in her tone was unwavering."Cassandra and I fight very much the same, no? We are both brash, our emotions often fueling us taking our next move before we even think to make it. Cullen is ready for just that, he's expecting it.
Do not count our Commander out just yet, Dorian. He maybe just surprise you."

I like to think that Vala would be hesitant about entering the Grand Tourney at least in terms of the melee challenge. After all it is during the Teryn of Ostwick's Tourney seven years ago she earned her largest and most prominent scar on her left side due to inexperience and dull weaponry. Her arrogance didn't help much either. I think that with some convincing from Blackwall however she would enter as a contestant.
Although in terms of the Jousting competition she can't seem to enter her name fast enough. After all she is the fastest rider in all the Free Marches and Atticus could use the competition.
There's a fire within her, swirling, raging nearly consuming her whole. That doesn't stop her as the motion repeats itself again again the sound of steel against hardened wood filling the air. She's breathless, so involved her repetitious movements that she doesn't even hear the person behind her.
The Free Marches
"The Free Marches are not a kingdom, nor even a nation in the most basic sense. People from that region dislike being lumped together as ‘Marchers.’ Rather, they are a collection of independent city-states united only when it suits them; in this respect, they resemble the Bannorn before the arrival of King Calenhad. Because of this, the Free Marches have no capital, and what passes for a central government exists only sporadically, a sort of Landsmeet that convenes only during times of crisis.
I arrived in time for the Grand Tourney while it was on in Tantervale - a remarkable sight indeed. I saw Avvar hillsmen test their mettle against Orlesian Chevaliers, riders from the Anderfels buying Nevarran cavalry horses, Antivan craftsmen selling their wares to Tevinter mages. All of Thedas was on display.”

Heretic’s Fork: Is there something your muse will never confess to?
Maybe she isn't meant for this. It's not too late for her to tuck her tail between her legs and return home. This was never meant to be her place, merely some twisted fantasy in her warped mind. She's no Champion nor is she a Hero, just a silly girl trying to fight a man's war.
