"I expect no such thing." Her cordiality in this encounter is, to be frank, more than he had expected from any elf with connections to the Denerim alienage. True, the plot had not been his own, but it had been within this power to stop it, and he had not. Even were Rendon Howe still alive, Loghain would not be within his rights to lay the blame for that travesty completely at his feet.
But self-flagellation is similarly not in his nature; he will find penitence through action, not through throwing himself upon the alter in the Maker's house night after night, entreating forgiveness. He won't beg it from Inessa, either, or anyone else still breathing. (Perhaps from Maric--)
"I have no quarrel with you," he tells her quietly. "Should you require my assistance for the completion of our task, I am available. Otherwise, you can be certain I will leave you be."
