Because he destroyed the Chantry and started a war we had no hope of winning.

[boxcar]

[ Oh. He sees how this goes. Wow. ]

Between the... Templars and the... mages if I am understanding this right?

[nonmagicuser]

[ thank u anders for apparently having explained some of this already ]

You've got it. I didn't have much of a choice unless I wanted to watch Anders become a symbol. He might have made choices I don't agree with but even he doesn't deserve to be martyred.

[boxcar]

[ He's frowning, but... ]

Is being martyr'd a bad thing where you are from?

[nonmagicuser]

[ LOOKS AT JUSTICE....... SWEATS... ]

I didn't want to take the chance.

[boxcar]

[ Help. ]

...

Did killing him achieve what you were hoping it would?

[nonmagicuser]

[ scoffs immediately ]

Hardly. The war still happened. The mages still ended up not quite as free as they wished. Plenty still blamed myself for allowing it to happen in the first place. No... the only thing it seems to achieve was bringing him mercy.

[boxcar]

When things are bad, even one more person saved is better than nothing.

But the war is over now? How did things change?

[nonmagicuser]

[ laughs alone with elfroot ]

Well. The mages are conscripted to the Inquisition now. I believe there was something about enslaving themselves to Tevinter and getting the lot of them thrown out of Ferelden? Varric was a bit sparce on that information, quite honestly. "It's a right mess" could mean so many things.

The Chantry is all but destroyed so maker help them, the templars have gone rogue and joined the latest world ending disaster along with the grey wardens in every bad decision you could choose.

[ THINGS ARE A BIT GRIM MY GUY ]

[boxcar]

[ Thinks about this. ]

...

That sounds not good.

[nonmagicuser]

[ lol. lmao ]

And to think I thought our prospects were going well.

[boxcar]

I just don't want to think that Anders did that, and died, for nothing.

[nonmagicuser]

[ :SMILES THROUGH HIS TEARS: ]

Perhaps when all the trouble settles down and Corypheus is dealt with, it'll be more obvious. But for now, it seems as if it's just another problem on top of many.

[boxcar]

[ ARE YOU GOOD? ]

Do you think that will be likely?

[ Since this is Saturday so we don't know shit yet. ]

[nonmagicuser]

[ EVERYTHING IS GREAT ]

I've got a good feeling about the Inquisitor. They've seemed to have it well in hand.



[ ....heh ]

[boxcar]

Who...?

[ Given all the Church talk, someone named THE INQUISITOR sounds somewhat ominous. ]

[nonmagicuser]

Poor sod currently in charge of everything wrong with the world.

[boxcar]

That makes them sound like a bad person.

[nonmagicuser]

[ chortles delightedly ]

According to everyone with an opinion, they are.

Meanwhile, they're just trying to hold everything together with a piece of twine, some elfroot, and the hopes and dreams of the entire nation.

[boxcar]

...It sounds like you like them though.

[ Despite this supposed reputation. ]

[nonmagicuser]

I met them a little before all of [ gestures to this nonsense ]

A good friend of mine- Varric, vouched for them. The kid could use a drink or five but they're hanging in there by the skin of their teeth, sheer spite, and a good head on their shoulders.

[boxcar]

[ Speaking of. ]

What happened to you?

[nonmagicuser]

How I got here you mean? Fell into the fade, got stuck, and if I'm to be believed, currently sitting in a nightmare's stomach.


[ he could sound less cheerful about it ]

[boxcar]

A nightmare's stomach...?

[ What that MEAN? ]

[nonmagicuser]

[ do you ever think about how insane da's setting probably sounds to an outsider ]

A giant demon in the shape of my nightmares. Better known as a giant spider.
