❝ Well, if you've come looking for aid I would say you've certainly found the place for it. What is it, the refugees say... ❛ Look for the lit lantern:  if you have need enough, Anders will be within ❜ ? They make sound as if I'm some OMNISCIENT judge-y thing, when I don't think I've even once turned anyone away for ❛  not having need enough ❜ . Whatever that means. ❞ A thankfully slow day, the mage a tad more talkative than usual when greeting new arrivals to his clinic. ❝ Sorry--- I DO take it you need something, though. No judgements here. ❞

‘ is that what they say about me? ’ he asks,  grin spreading across his lips as he leans back in the chair.  ‘ that you should avoid me at any cost?  that the vint is going to destroy anything good about you?  that his plans for the south only involve destruction and that it’s far better to simply... stay away from him?  ’ he scoffed.  ‘ it almost sounds like they need to be reminded what the most powerful man in thedas can do.’

     HAVEN WAS a new place for her to explore, though she was fearful without her mother nearby. The Inquisitor had summoned her for a mission away from the newfound sanctuary, leaving the girl in the care of a Chantry Sister. But Holly held no trust in said person, she preferred to find someone she felt that could protect and entertain her.  ❝  Ma told me to stay safe.  ❞  maybe he could do a better job.  ❝  Can I stay with you  ?  ❞  /  @battlesworn​

     MOMENTS PASS before she can register how long she has been silent for some time, something that barely ever happens. A tiny chuckle leaves her bewildered state, eyes carefully taking in the true nature &&. stature of the man.  ❝  You’re rather tall, aren’t you  ?  Not that I’m complaining at all.  ❞  /  @battlesworn​ &. ♥

“You heard Harding, any of you willing to come with me? I don’t blame you for wanting to stay here, the trek will be dangerous, but I am going to get those men back.” 

      “I’m no exception. I was a prisoner when I came to Haven, if you didn’t know.” Crinkled eyes glint as a chuckle leaves the man’s lips. Those were strange times. If he and his brother were the reason red lyrium got into darkspawn hands, perhaps he’d deserved every second. “I like to think there are worst people than me, though.” And maybe that’s enough.

The youth was tired - the long hunt he had been upon to track down a bear of whom had harmed a number of his clan was drawing endlessly longer than he intended. Taking a small rest, the youth drew in a long breath and allowed his gaze to scan his surroundings. T’was only then he noted movement nearby and initially he thought it may have been that damned bear - but no  - the movement was wrong. “Who’s there?” He called, readying his bow.
