"It might seem surprising coming from me, but i'm quite fond of Orleasian poetry myself. It was used in my lessons before leaving for Orlais, in fact. It made those dreadfully boring hours a bit more bearable, let me tell you.*laughs*"

Dorian leaned back in his chair, cupping his goblet between both hands, eyes going vague as he sought his memory. After a moment, he quoted, “Nos péchés sont têtus, nos repentirs sont lâches;/ Nous nous faisons payer grassement nos aveux,/ Et nous rentrons gaiement dans le chemin bourbeux,/
Croyant par de vils pleurs laver toutes nos taches.”
