She nodded, looking off at Skyhold under them for a few moments, before she turns back to Cole, a small smile on her face. "Cole. That's your name, right? I thought you were a rifter, the first time the rifters all appeared." Now they were all but a regular thing. You can get used to anything, she supposes.

There's another pause, as she studied him.

"But you aren't a rifter. What are you, Cole?"

For a long time, that was a question he wouldn't have been able to answer. Once, the answer might have been 'demon.' But recently, he'd been learning more. He had more of a name, now, than just Cole.

"They've said... Compassion." It still felt strange to say, and yet not wrong. "Following unseen and silent, a shadow, but not sinister. I just want to help."

"You're a spirit." Beleth doesn't know a lot about spirits and demons, but she knows enough. She blinks at him, surprised but not scared, reaching out to touch his shoulder, as if surprised by the fact that he's solid. "I've never heard of a spirit that had their own body before. Not like this."

She thinks for a few moments, then makes up her mind that it doesn't matter what Cole is. He's a good person, and that is what counts, surely. "Helping people is a good goal. I can respect that. Let me know if you ever need help, okay? I mean--" Pause. "--Need help helping, yeah?"
