"So the rifts are, what, just a minor inconvenience? No, I didn't see this thing, or this Herald, and I'm sorry she's dead and made you guys sad, I guess." Look, he's had a slightly different experience with how so-called friends react to him being dead. "But falling through time and space and reality just to land on your doorstep? Kind of more than just an inconvenience!"
That's not really what she's saying, but to go blah blah the crazy reality-warping holes you fell through are no big deal compared to the big scar sky breach thing. "I've died too many times for this stupid war to just up and say oh hey, yeah, sure, I'll give my life trying to close a giant demon portal." The lie is that he knows he would, if he had to. He'd sure like to avoid it, though. "I would kind of like to find a way back home instead. And maybe it's through your portals. Without the bringing in demons part, because that part is dangerous and sucks for literally everyone involved.
"And," he continues, because Church doesn't know when to stop speaking, at all, ever, because boy his feet sure are tasty aren't they, "you want to see if I'm a threat? If I'm a threat? The only people I'm a threat to are the big bad scary people from my world, which is why I'm always some pawn or weapon in some stupidly elaborate plot so that some people don't have to face war crime charges--I'm not a threat here. Is it the glowing hand? I can't do anything about that; that was your Fade at work. Is it my face? Cuz I didn't pick it, but I didn't think it looked all that threatening. I'd boast about my glorious muscles, but-" Cassandra's are probably bigger than his "-I've seen qunari, man, and I am not about to boast what I don't have." That's a first.
