I knew I’d get this thing on eventually. All it it needed was a few swift kicks to help it along.
[Hawke looks rather smug with himself right now. Despite the crash course given to him, of which he may have zoned out of once or twice, he understands this console about as much as he does magic. The fact he got it working on his own means a lot to him.]
Alright, from what I hear this place is in need of heroes and the like. So much so in fact that they’ve started kidnapping people right off the street. Now I don’t mean to criticize your emperor, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Generally it’s considered good manners to ask someone for help instead of just grabbing them by their short and curlies and just dragging them off somewhere.
[He wags his finger in a very ‘you should be ashamed of yourself’ manner.]
Maker, at least people in Kirkwall gave me the illusion of choice before asking me to do something stupid and dangerous. They usually pay me too.
[When he sighs it’s utterly exaggerated.]
Oh well, no use in complaining I suppose.
[Of course that doesn’t mean he’s actually going to stop anytime soon.]
Since I’m here I may as well play along. Chances are this is all some kind of Fade...dream...thing, so what’s the worst that can happen? Besides the possibility of demonic possession.

[Then again, his clothes look more soldier than sportsman. Maybe he's a knight? It's hard to miss her excitement at the possibilities that come to mind.]
Oh oh! Or did you save a princess or slay a dragon or somethin' and that's why you're a champion?
video;
Dragon slaying yes. [Which is sad because dragons are awesome but he really didn't want to be eaten.] Princess saving, not so much.
It was mostly a thank you for keeping a bunch of horned giants from destroying the city even more.
video; ALL THESE YEARS AND THAT ICON STILL KILLS ME
Horned giants..? What were they? Trolls or something?
video; I have to use it at least once in our threads
video; o u
video; I'm such a scamp
[Even if he doesn't know what a troll is this is easier than trying to explain the qunari.]
video;
But what's a Qunari?
[She stares at him, smiling sweetly. Can you say no to that face?]
video;
Imagine a gray-skinned giant with horns, a bad attitude, and no sense of humor armed with spears. Then you'd have a Qunari.
video;
Holy cow! How do you even deal with something like that?
video;
[To be fair he did try the whole talking thing. Unfortunately the only Qunari he actually liked set himself on fire.]
video;
video; 2/2
D-did it really take that much?!
video;
There was some talking, but diplomacy is a hard thing to use when the other person has already decided they want to kill you.
video;
Sarah takes a deep breath.]
R-right. So.
[Topic change needed. There's things out there she just doesn't want to think about.]
Dragons. You really have dragons at home?
video;
Yes we have dragons. There was a time when people thought they were all gone. Now they're all over the place.
video;
Are they big? Like, bigger than a house?
video;
video;
[It's really cool to hear about.]
What about stuff like unicorns? Or fairies!
video;
video;
[There's no hiding she's a little disappointed. Griffins get her back to excited again though.]
Did you ever see one? Why would they leave?
video;
video;
Oh yeah, I bet they're hanging out at some tropical beach resort, sipping cocktails with little umbrellas in them.
[...Only he probably won't get any of that.]
Um. I mean. Holidaying away somewhere.
video;
If that's what they're doing then they need to come back just long enough to take me with them.
video;
Rude that they never invited you in the first place!
video;
No one must have taught them any manners before they left.
