Uh... Tevinter? What's Tevinter?

I get you. We get assholes like that in my world, too. It sucks.

[rideme]

Old empire - run by the biggest asshole mages in the entire world.

It sure does. Makes it a pleasure when you can shut them up.

[timecapture]

Wow. I always thought of wizards as wise old people. Kind of like grandparents, but with lightning.

I'm sorry that happened. I'm glad you were able to get away.

[rideme]

Haha! Shit! Maybe some of them, but not in Tevinter.

Yeah, we're okay. Lost an eye, got a lieutenant.

[timecapture]

That's how you lost your eye? Your lieutenant must be really loyal to you.

[rideme]

Yeah. They were going to whip him -- standard Vint procedure for soldiers who desert. They got me instead. Then their heads got new holes in them.

Heh. Sure is. Krem's a good man.

[timecapture]

That's horrible! I'm glad you were there to stop them.

Is he here with you? [She hopes so; it's kind of awful being here by herself sometimes, and she wouldn't wish that on anyone else.]

[rideme]

Same here.

... nah. He's not. None of my boys are.

[timecapture]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked.

[rideme]

Hey, I'm not upset. How were you supposed to know?

[timecapture]

I know, but I have this stupid habit of getting nosy.

But I'm glad I met you, for what it's worth. I hope that helps.

[rideme]

I'm not mad. Really. You'd know if I was.

Heh. You too, kid.

[timecapture]

Thanks, Iron Bull. That means a lot.
