"It's not unwilling, usually," she comments. "Just so you know."
Avery's heard of Circle Towers where Tranquility was used as a punishment, but what little she knows of the process is that that's the exception rather than the rule, and generally frowned upon even if the templars don't seem to care quite enough to do something about it. "I mean, sometimes it is, but it's not meant to be. I'm no expert or nothing, but from what I've heard, Circle mages eventually have to prove they're strong enough not to get possessed. Not to be a danger.
"Being Tranquil is supposed to be their choice if they think they'll fail and become abominations."
Honestly, on some level it bothers her as well, but when the other options are killing them or risking them becoming monsters and endangering who knows how many lives... It's a difficult call.
