“Both - and you cannot forget the grave sin of not being nobles.”
Not being human and not being human enough were too different to be muddled together, even if they were a related problem, so to speak. Besides, there was more the issue that she wasn’t the right type of human, and that way lay a trail of self-loathing and potential debate she’d sooner not dip into hastily, not at this present moment. If she were feeling more positively self-reflective, rather than needling at herself with impressive thoroughness and efficiency, this would be the moment to reflect that it’s good she isn’t close to shaking, so engaged with one of the Dalish. No positive self-reflection today, though, not for a fairly meager accomplishment of basic functionality.
Despite this thorough angst and internal dramatics, Herian mostly just looks as serious as she ever does.
“I am awed, in turns, by how vastly different and the same things can be across Thedas. Whether matters are irreconcilable or whether there is common ground seems like to vary dramatically, depending what light they are viewed under.”
