[She says nothing during all of it, letting him work through his own anger for the time being. There's nothing to say, nothing that can ease his pain. And there should not be. There was no excuse for what Loghain did, just as there was no excuse for what Howe did to her, and she's barely scratched the surface of his crimes. There is such a thing as excessive detail, however, and she chooses to leave it at that.]
He was working for Loghain. He convinced him that my family was spying for the Orlesians. He locked Anora up. We would have had to deal with him eventually at the Landsmeet, if nothing else.
[But she would be lying if she said it hadn't been satisfying to cut him down after everything. Her face conveys the sentiment enough, meeting his gaze without guilt.
She warms her hands over her mug for the time being.]
Yes, things are well. He's proved an invaluable ally and friend when I've needed someone at my back. He was a powerful fighter before his Joining. He's taken to his new life well, all things considered, and he's regained some of what the Howe's lost thanks to my brother. I think he's content.
[They don't speak much about their own feelings on Warden life. They've never been much for sharing such personal details.]
The other Warden here from my group is named Anders. He's a mage from Kinloch Hold who's escaped the circle...multiple times. [She smiles thinly as she finally sips from her drink.] He's a healer. Very powerful. He runs the clinic here.
