[ The woman on the feed looks rather disgruntled. Probably because she was just taken from her city while a group of righteous oxmen rampage it as part of some holy crusade and she feels like she has a hangover. ]

If this is the Fade, then this is either a very vivid hallucination, or I've been tapping the red lyrium.

Alright, let's get this over with. I'm Hawke, I'm from Kirkwall, and I specialize in being everyone's bloody errand girl and killing things. Particularly killing things. I also don't possess easy, so whatever mouth-breathing demons are out there, don't think I'll make an easy target. You'll find more than you bargained for.

And such a welcome. Are the natives always this friendly, or do they just have a particular dislike for me? Not like they'd be the first. It's always, "Die, dog bitch!" and "Kill the Hawke!" and "I'll harvest your blood for my nefarious diabolical purposes and serve you up to demons!"

Honestly, if they don't want us here, they shouldn't drag us off in the first place. But no one ever accused kidnappers of having an overabundance of logic.

[ At first Fenris is confused, but it quickly devolves into anger as the video goes on. You know, as it tends to with him. He hovers over his device with that ever-familiar look of vicious ~~constipation~~ RAGE on his face, barely waiting for her to finish speaking. ] What is the meaning of this? You are not Hawke.

[ It can't be that common a name, especially not in Kirkwall. ]

It's nice to see you too, Fenris.

Do not play games with me, pretender.

Why in the name of Andraste's soiled knickers would I pretend to be myself? Not only is that stupid, but have you seen my life lately? It's not exactly tea and crumpets.

[ well it sure SOUNDS like Hawke... in a slightly higher pitch ]

Is there a reason you've less beard than Varric now?

[ Actually, come to think of it, Fenris wouldn't put it past Hawke to find a fool way to turn himself into a woman. ]

From what I've gathered, most of the natives didn't have much to do with bringing us here. Though that doesn't make their current attitude any more pleasant to bear.

If not the natives, then what? Demons? Spirits? Angry dancing leprechauns with pitchforks?

I said most of the natives. [Sorry, he can't help a smirk. Hawke is reminding him far too much of a certain friend of his.]

The Emperor is the one you'll want to blame.

Yes, I find blaming people in charge very helpful.

It might be stress-relieving, at least.

Yikes! Okay first rule, no killing things here.

If something tries to kill me, I'm not just going to lie back and think of Ferelden.

I have no idea what that is and I'm not saying you shouldn't defend yourself, but there are other ways.

Look, the kedan are already on edge, I know you must be confused but please, that would only make things worse.

I'm not going to go on some mad rampage through the streets, if that's what you're worried about.

Well, there's one immediate worry off my mind.

[ Now he's teasing a little, but man, what a way to make an introduction. ]

So... do you always introduce yourself like that?

The kedan weren't always this aggressive. It's only since the recent laws introducing rationing that they've begun to openly harass foreigners.

Hardly fair of them to blame that on us, but no one ever accused raving mobs of having an overabundance of logic.

So. A famine, is it?

That seems to be the case.

So no. It's not just you. [Rest assured Hawke, people here don't hate you as much as they do at home! Yayyyy]

[ Not yet, at least. ]

It's so good to be among friends.

Are you usually hated and despised wherever you go? [leave it to cas not to mince words]

You've fought demons before? Real demons?

It's not like I asked for their certificates of demon pedigree.

But yes. Real demons.

What do they look like? [He looks very intrigued.]

Ugly as the wrong end of a dog.

Do you not like dogs...?
