it is the rudest

Whether they are words she knows or not, the tone and the touch are enough to convey the meaning. She clings to it, to the fact that she is not alone, that she is not the only one who has done horrible things against clan and kin. She never wanted to, and she does not know if that is true of whatever happened to Galadriel and those like her -- but tragedies, mistakes, they happen. Who would know better than her? When there are none alive who can offer forgiveness, where do you find it?

"Despite all the horrible things happening -- if you had to be dragged into this world, I am glad I was able to meet you as a result." The Inquisition has helped her find family where her clan is dead and her Kirkwall family has scattered. It has done good even in that seemingly small way, and Merrill will always remember it.

Still, she isn't unhappy about the change of topic, either. There's a little shake of her head, something both embarrassed and pleased in the color of her cheeks (beyond the red from her tears). "You hadn't. You're welcome to visit it whenever you'd like, though!" That's always been true, but Merrill tends to forget that other people don't realize that without express invitation. "Though no offense to your mother's family, but I prefer not being inside ships that go on water. Maybe up on the deck, but otherwise I was horribly sick."
