Huon and Alma chibis

[Improving some of my gifs/gifsets these days] 𝟚 of 𝟚, 2023.

As I remember this scene, Huon talked at great length about his grievances before killing his captive while Hawke watched with a dumb smile on their face and no interrupt option in sight. After revisiting it, I have to admit that it wasn't five minutes of Hawke scratching their bum, waiting for Nyssa to get stabbed before taking action, but it still sure felt like it. Sorry, Nyssa, you deserved better. If this had been Mass Effect, you'd still be alive.

Huon

Elsa: “Huon is an elf. He was apprehended in the alienage ten years ago. His wife, Nyssa, works for a dressmaker in Lowtown.”

Elsa: “Huon was taken many years ago. Most of the alienage’s inhabitants do not even know him.”

Nyssa: “I used to dream of him returning. But not like this. He’s changed, and I don’t know him anymore. I sent him away.”

Nyssa: “Huon didn’t leave me. He was taken away.”

Nyssa: “When the templars found out he was a mage they chained him and dragged him from the alienage. In front of everyone.”

Nyssa: “If he had been himself, I would have taken him back gladly!”

Nyssa: “Now I’m trapped in this... this sham. Married, but with no husband, and no future.”

Evelina

Elsa: “Evelina was trained for eight years in the Circle in Ferelden. She was last seen in her former residence among the refugee community in Darktown.”

Elsa: “Our files indicate she petitioned Meredith for financial support of numerous other pre-adolescent Blight survivors.”

Walter: “This is our home as much as it is hers. Evelina shared everything she had with us.”

Walter: “I’m not Evelina. I’m Walter. Evelina was our... friend. She was our mother.”

Walter: “Evelina found us when the darkspawn came, when our parents died. She made sure we got to Kirkwall safely.”

Walter: “She didn’t want us to be stuck in Darktown. She wanted to give us a real life.”

Walter: “But when she went to join the Circle here, they called her apostate for leaving the tower in Ferelden. They locked her up.”

Walter: “Everyone died in the Blight. Evelina kept picking us up, new children every day, every one she could save.”

Walter: “She thought the Circle would help her. But they just locked her away.”

Conclusion

Hawke: “The blame for everything these mages did can be laid at your feet.”

Hawke: “Look at the way you treat them. Is it any wonder they’re so desperate?”

Anders: “Maybe if you never took Huon from his wife she wouldn’t be dead!”

They’re going to the city!!!! heaven help them
