Grinning back, Korrin gives in to elaboration. It's one of her favorite subjects, but she's always afraid of boring people with the retelling. Plus, she's no true storyteller otherwise.

"Sorry, I should have brought Varric with me. He's much better at these stories. But yes, it actually did breathe ice. That was part of the problem; the whole area was like one giant puddle, so when it breathed at us, our feet would be frozen in place. It'd be easy to pick us off while we were trying to break free. If it wasn't for the Barrier spell and Cassandra's refocusing its attention, we've have been screwed so many times. It also had this ear-piercing shriek that is the most awful noise I've ever heard and will hopefully ever ear. When it did that, we couldn't manage anything but trying to cover our ears. That was even more annoying than dealing with its dragonlings."
