When Iskandar agrees to his future self's decision, Sam gives another sigh and looks up at the man, lips thinning further at the smile on his face. Not that he didn't like Iskandar's smile, but the look was far too familiar to the look he had given right before charging down the tunnel into the Darkspawn.

"You weren't the only one to do it. Norrington made a last stand to by us more time... then Jim." Sam stops again, brows furrowing as he looked away, trying not to break down about all of it. "The rest of us made it out, but then... I just don't know what happened with Cyril or Sina, we went separate ways. I guess it doesn't matter right now, but I just keep seeing it, reliving the moments over and over."

[OoC: Just guessing how things went down during the escape, for progression purposes.]</small<
