Inessa shakes her head at mention of macarons, not having had that kind of exposure yet. She certainly won't say no to trying them, however. "Watch out, you might encourage the Grey Wardens into visiting Skyhold more than the Inquisition is comfortable with." Because there's no way she's not sharing this with Ciri, and it could snowball from there.

"That's often the way of it, yes. Magic in a stain on a noble family nearly everywhere but Tevinter. It will make visiting the Imperium rather...interesting, as a mage." Would she be afforded any respect as a mage, or would her obvious elven heritage cancel that out completely? She can't say for certain, but knows better than to get her hopes up.

For her part, Inessa seems interested rather than repulsed. She knows exactly what demons are, and has never bought the murmurings that rifters were demons from beyond. "It must be comforting to find such commonalities, though I'm sorry for you're sake that they're not closer at hand. The south is quite different, for good or ill."
