A suspicion, a doubt, grew in my mind like a seed in the earth. Such a pretty girl. Such a sweet girl, my Leliana, but you cannot fool me. I know that you are like me deep down, you are just pretending. To what end, I do not know. Chantry-girl, pfft! You, my girl, are no pure sister!
My Leliana, I knew that you were the one the first time I saw you. Sweet girl, precious girl. I saw you: your hair burning, your eyes smiling. Before you had even noticed me, I could see our future together. We would rule the world, you by my side. When you finally did notice me, you were just as pretty as I had imagined. You were young; so eager to learn, so eager to touch, so eager to kiss.
Sweetness, precious, lovely, why, why, why did you question me? I sent you there because I thought I could trust you. Idiot girl, beautiful girl, my pretty stupid thing. When did you develop a conscience? When did you decide that something as trivial as treason was more important than me? I should have known that seducing men in front of you would make you jealous. Do you think you were the only girl who loved me? Do you think you were important enough for me to just stop my plan? I had plenty of girls who would have gladly taken your place as my favourite. You were nothing without me, my Leliana, nothing!
I could smell your betrayal; I knew that it was coming. It made me sad to think that my sweet pretty thing could turn on me, so I did it first. I would not give you the opportunity.
Pretty thing, when that knife slid into your belly you made such a sweet expression. If I didn't look down to see the knife, if I didn't feel it, I could pretend that you had climaxed under my skilled hands. My pretty thing, even the yelp you made could be taken for a sound of passion. I would be lying if I didn't admit that the sound of you almost made me warm. You always had such a way with your voice.
My poor, pretty thing, I know what those men did to you. Of course you have spent the years plotting against me. It makes me laugh at the thought that your life still revolves around me. My Leliana, don't you know that you are mine? When you come for me, I will be ready.
