   Summary

   Amell reaches Skyhold soon after the Inquisitor is back from Halamshiral,
   It puts Lavellan's relationship with Cullen under an interrogative point: They kissed three times, what's that against a shared past, a common culture and trauma bonding? For Lavellan, the only solution is leaving first.
   As Skyhold turns snowy, the two must learn to communicate. And a small new spell may even help.
