"Well enough to think of him as a younger brother...we were the youngest recruits so becoming fast friends was easy," she'd witnessed his joining and they had shared many secrets in their time together and still maintained contact up until Duncan's unfortunate death, "hm...well I know he became more serious as he grew into his role as a Grey Warden, but it wasn't always so. I know his mother was Rivain and his father was from Ferelden...he was born in Highever and after his parents died he became a thief in Orlais. He once told me that he and a group he was running with were going to loot a nobleman's house, but Duncan was spooked and ran away, not paying attention where he was running he fell into a well and was stuck for a few days until someone finally pulled him out. He learned that his fellow thieves were killed not long after that. I always thought it was funny that Duncan could be clumsy...I've always known him as being light footed, a man who could go unnoticed if he wanted to, but I suppose everyone must start somewhere. It was his thieving that led him to become a Grey Warden, actually."
