If she knew Mia better she would pry - that’s an invitation in Castileos - but she gives her an apologetic smile, letting her focus turn to the mages again. “And there’s probably no other way. Well, there’s this way, the Dalish way, and I suppose the Tevinter way if it could be pulled away from the history but that wouldn’t be so easy here.”

And councils, always councils and that way they talk, it makes me want a bath after hearing their ‘suggestions’.”
