Sometimes, the obvious is in front of you and there is nothing you can do but attempt to accept it.

Six had arrived in Thedas and met Adalia incredibly soon, but she had denied any chance that this girl might be the sister that her step-mother had taken away so many years before. How long had it been, now? She had been barely five when Adalia had been stolen from them - a good thing, in the end - so it was close to seventeen years. Could seventeen years have gone by with no sign of her younger sibling only for the two of them to meet here, in the middle of a world away from her own?

It seems too coincidental to be true, but there are more and more signs that were making Six... Curious. Questioning. Uncertain. There were similarities, there was no denying that, and it had been pointed out once or twice, but she had never dared to believe it. The truth was that Six had abandoned her family when she had left Halyon and their village, so to find a connection here, in the middle of nowhere when she had spent the last seven years making her own path and finding her own future... It was difficult to accept and more difficult to face head on.

It is a good thing she had always been encouraged to be brave.

She makes her way to Adalia's room, hesitating outside the door. Her sword is strapped to her back, her pack with her, with the hilt wrapped in the cloak as it always is. She feels safer with it at her side, and she lifts her head to breathe, in and then out, before she knocks on the door.

Whatever happens, at least she has investigated. She has done her part and Six thinks that will be enough. She is just tired.
