Considering he’s actually a fat little pig in the guise of a fox? No. She would’ve sunk in the snow if that had been the case.

“I hope that when all is said and done, when the rifts are gone that no one loses a home that cannot be easily rebuilt.” It’s something they share at least, though Araceli’s people have never dwelt on their loss really, they mourned, they moved on, they built above and around what remained to them. Perhaps Thedas will learn to do the same this time. “Where I live there are beasts that can swallow seven ships whole, maybe there are some here that will keep the seas safe for sailors. Those...angry fire demons, they could destroy a ship so quickly.”

She’s bad with demon names, they take longer to remember.

“I can water it down, Korrin and I did that for Sina but with wine, rum’s nicer watered down though, you can still taste it.” But it was Sina, and neither of them wanted to get her hammered when Araceli knew she had never tried alcohol before so sweetened wine had seemed the best way to go about it. Rum is always good though, Araceli was literally raised on it (and brandy. And wine. And a few other things. Start the kids early so they don’t go out and get hammered the first chance they have.)

With a smile, she finds herself nodding; it’s strange, the things you find you have in common with people in Thedas. “We are the same but it’s the sea, though it does make it much easier for us to get everything we want and need when we’re the best sailors and shipbuilders once the lumber gets to us. Ironbark is still wood, yes? I think I saw a mention of it in a book I was reading.” She is a giant nerd Ellana, half her life is spent in the library these days it seems.

“If you would like, I don’t want to drag you away if you’re busy or have plans.”
