It’s the first time someone has gone out of their way to give me something that has meaning to me as a Dalish. Who...took the time to think about my culture, and give me something meaningful through that lens.
[ It helps, of course, that Fate already came from a Dalish clan. But she’s aware that his relationship with the Dalish is currently...Complicated. Which just might make it more meaningful, that he paid it heed anyway. ]
It’s fine, Fate. You could always bring me something from Antiva. But you know I’m right about the drinking. I’m not going to tell you that you can’t drink, or even get drunk. But—I spent most of Wintermarch in a buzzed haze. And it solved amazingly few problems. It took a plague to get myself together. I’d rather you not have to deal with one of those.
