Ellana feels an ache in her temple once more and lifts a hand to rub at it. She may not be a great traveler of the world yet, nor has she had libraries at her disposal before now to read up on Wardens, but she's inclined to believe that Adelaide just wants reasons to hate them and Ellana is not going to argue anymore. It's pointless. She believes that Felix was given a choice, because she thinks that's what Alistair would do. He's not the type who would force a dying man to go through it-- for what? Adelaide doesn't know what Wardens are going through right now, but Ellana does. Alistair is doing this to save Felix's life, not to gain one more recruit forced to hear the Calling in his head. He wouldn't do that to a person if they were healthy. He's giving Felix a chance in the hopes they can stop this Calling.

She dips down her head and closes her eyes, still rubbing her head. The waiting is the worst part. She just wants to know the result, no matter what it is, because then she'll know that Felix is alive, or has found peace beyond the Veil. As expected. Her nose burns with the build up of tears she's trying to hold back, and she squeezes her eyes shut tighter, saying nothing.
