— Riel Darkwater

Riel Darkwater is a member of the Order of Whispers and the order's primary spy in Lion's Arch.

In reality, Riel is the current Master of Whispers. Her role is a closely-guarded secret, known only to the Preceptors and Trahearne. She became the Master of Whispers after defeating her predecessor, who had fallen to the corruption of the Elder Dragons, with the help of Trahearne. Her cover story is that she is an attaché to the Preceptors, and the lead Whispers agent stationed in Lion's Arch. She works under the Commodore, Lawson Marriner, and in exchange for the details of Captain's Council meetings she keeps the Commodore informed on the criminal underworld of the city. In 1337 AE, Riel arrives at the Guild Initiative Headquarters as a Pact representative. While there, she arranges a meeting with Frode to question the Astral Ward.

After An Apple a Day

I'd like to hear a progress report on your last assignment, but I've got a mess of paperwork here that I need to coordinate for Preceptor Doern. Perhaps later.

Understood.

After A Light in the Darkness

Agent <Character name>, the Order owes you a great debt of gratitude for saving the Chantry of Secrets, and for saving our so many lives.

I'm glad to serve, Master Riel. Farewell for now.

If your character is not a member of the Order of Whispers (requires a party member with a portal skill)

How'd you get in here? You'd better find your way out before you disappear forever.

Okay.
