For a moment, the beauty of that view is disorienting.
She recognises the Gallows in her memories of Rifthold, but unlike many who wear Riftwatch sigils (still? do they? no—) Gwenaëlle hadn’t gone first to Kirkwall. No, it had been Skyhold she’d been sent to — wailing at the injustice of it — and she had had her own room, with her own beautiful view of the Frostbacks, and gazing out at the stunning view of Astrid’s happily avvar after—
for the first time, something feels wrong. All of these things don’t make sense together, and there is something about Skyhold, something that tugs at her memory, something uneasy and urgent that she should know…
Why didn’t Asher come with them? She holds him in her mind’s eye (pale and drawn, a sheen of sweat on his brow, weary, no, this isn’t right,) and tells herself: of course it’s just for her and Morgana and Astrid. What sort of child would she be to need him by her side always,
“She watches over you always, but it’s certainly easier when you’re this close,”
but this is important for Morgana, wouldn’t he want to be here? She has always seen crows, since she left Skyhold,
what is it that the Lady keeps for her. Something. It’s on the tip of her tongue, frowning, her gaze caught on the horizon as Morgana tugs at her hand.
