( +5 Herian Slightly Approves. But also -30 because DALISH DALISH DALISH DALISH etc )

From any other person Herian might have accepted the words more graciously, have granted the one speaking them more credit. It makes her immediate ire cool, only to stoke quiet suspicion that burns in her chest as effectively as if she had swallowed hot coals. (And there is the truth of her, that she could condemn the Dalish for doing and for not doing, for helping and for not helping. Whatever could be done would not be right, and even when they acted to her requests, she would doubt them. Some part of her knows it, and the greater part of her is too raw to manage that awareness. They could all burn, just as Halamshiral had burned.

She cannot think such thoughts without regret, but the vicious, childish anger is there all the same.)

"As you say." Calm, still. Her teachers always told her to control her emotions, but there are times when she wonders if perhaps she just became very good at burying them. And, out of caution rather than politeness or personal interest, "what is your name?"
