"I know better than to ask if you've any idea what befell the famed 'Champion of Kirkwall', then." If the elf doesn't know, and the dwarf, and neither Hands could dig out the truth, alive or dead, then...better to drop it, for now. No Hero, either. They're on their own until by some miracle they happen to drop by.

Given the whole exploding chantry thing, though, and qunari invasion, and all else, maybe it's better Hawke stay away, honestly. "I'm sorry you got dragged into all of this, however."
