Maker's furry nutsack.

That is all.



You know what? No, that is not all. Does anyone know the details of what is going on?




So. Talking is a thing I suppose we should do when things settle. Maybe?

Oh, nothing much, just apparently someone decided to give Cullen a bunch of authority in the time between mine and now, and he's gone about locking up mages in dungeons, and then decided to lock himself up, and tried to rope me into some kind of passing judgment...thing...

Really, I don't know exactly what's going on here, and I certainly don't know how I got involved. Yes, I, the infamous Anders, inciter of wars and rebellion and death, will surely be the best choice to advocate here.

The man has clearly been locked up too long in whatever world he's coming from. I'll have to try and persuade him that more time locked up isn't the answer. (Shut up, Justice. He's fine there if he wants to be. Ugh.)

[varricmod]

Riiiiiiight.

Need any help there?

[thecryoftheseagulls]

No, no, we're fine. Neria has shown up. You didn't mention Neria was here too; thank the Maker.

We'll just...go about...doing Justice-y things. At least someone's happy.

[varricmod]

Give a call if any of you need backup.

[lavellanfadewalk]

Wait, wait.
Anders is here?
The Anders?

And the Hero of Ferelden too?

Shit, couldn't we all be normal people and meet in a nice place, with a nice weather and wine?

[varricmod]

It's hard to get a list going with so many people zipping this way and that, or hiding out, but yeah--we've got an Anders and a Hero of Ferelden.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

I'm going to be The Anders for the rest of my life now, aren't I?

Suppose I might as well get used to it.

[lavellanfadewalk]

Yea, just like I'll be the Herald forever.

Cass would probably throw me from the battlements if she heard, but I really admire you. Just for you to know.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

I...well. Um, thank you? Wow. Yes, thank you.

Since we're stuck here indefinitely, we should talk sometime. Maybe over drinks? I don't fully understand this Inquisition of yours, but if you hooked Varric into it, that's a pretty good endorsement in my opinion.

[lavellanfadewalk]

Poor Varric, from what I know he was just in the wrong place in the wrong time. Well, not that different from me, I guess.

But sure, let's meet in the Herald's Rest sometime and chat. I guess you would appreciate the Inquisition too.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

Possibly. You'll forgive me if I'm a little suspicious of any organization with such...well, religious and military power, I suppose.

[lavellanfadewalk]

I understand, I would be wary too if not in my position. But we did good things, aided the rebel mages and now Divine Cass-- I mean, Divine Victoria is working to reform the Templar Order and the Circle, so the mages won't be imprisioned anymore with the Templars as their jailors. Also stopped this insane Ancient Tevinter Mage from tearing the sky appart so he could reach the seat of the Maker and proclaim himself God. Last, but not least, we're aiding the Grey Wardens to rebuild, since said insane Ancient Tevinter mage used them as part of his plan and pretty much forced them to fuck up everything.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

I admit, that sounds promising.

But you mention aid and rebel mages and freeing all at once and it's not difficult to sell me, so.

[lavellanfadewalk]

What can I say? I was always good to see what people wanted.

I'm a mage myself.
Even though the shemlen mages only remember us, elfs, when they need us to thicken their ranks, I couldn't ignore them or pretend their problem was just theirs.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

That's...well...rather more open-minded than the Dalish mages I've known before.

[lavellanfadewalk]

Holding grudges won't help, right?

I could sit and ignore the shemlen mages? Yes, easily.
But, is it right? No.
And people should tell right from wrong clearly, don't matter their culture or race.

The Inquisition has the power to spread this word, to change the world, so I'll gladly do it and one day, perhaps, Orlais won't wipe out my elven origin from their history books as they did to poor Inquisitor Ameridan before me.

[thecryoftheseagulls]

Well. I certainly admire the strength of your convictions.

[lavellanfadewalk]

Well, thank you.
Now, let's just hope such convictions doesn't fuck everything.

People already talk about rebelling against the new Divine due her decisions about the Circle. We'll have to ensure they don't have a voice to complain.

Worst part of it?
What makes me different from a tyrant if not only the point of view?
