A/N Bioware owns Dragon Age. In case it seems confusing. Phaedra's pov continues after Adamant and Cadash speaks to Leliana. Bad Language ahead in this chapter.
(Phaedra, that same evening)
It had surprised me when Bryce had told me how spoke to Leliana. What he said had been true, but what surprised me the most was how much he understood. It hurt a lot when I saw her enter the dining hall.
She passed us over with a glance. There was no smile, she didn't even acknowledge us. She then spoke to a cook about having some food brought up to the rookery. She was not coming home tonight either.
I was still reeling about her complete lack of interest in us, when I saw a blushing serving girl go up the stairs. The stairs that would lead to the rookery.
"I see that same blushing serving girl go up those stairs almost nightly." An Orlesian noble guest, says to her friend.
"I saw her go up to the rookery every night this week. Maybe the Spymaster has finally dropped that knife ear?" Her friend asks.
"I certainly hope so. Knife ears are nothing but thieves and whores. I had a houseful of them as servants. I paid them, and they repay me by stealing my jewelry and seducing my guards and my innocent daughter." His friend replies.
I got up from my chair and slammed it back underneath the table. "Mamae?" Bryce asks.
"I need to leave Da Assan, suddenly I am no longer hungry." I said loud enough that Orlesian cunts would hear me and see my deadly glare. Bryce gets up too and picks up Oisine. I see Cadash looking my way. I shake my head and leave the hall.
Silently as Bryce can, him and Oisine follow me to the Tavern. "Leliana, does not want us in the Tavern. She says it is too dangerous and not a good place for children." Bryce says.
"She is still Leliana to you then?" I asked.
He nods. "Until she makes it right with us, she will be." he replies. I stop at the doors to the Tavern. Leliana was right, I cannot bring them here. There is already a brawl happening.
"She is right about the Tavern. Let's go to our suite." I said.
We trudge up the stairs to the battlements and follow them to our suite. I needed to avoid the main hall. "Did you eat enough at dinner?" I asked poking the fire back to life.
"Yeah. I was full when we left. You barely ate anything Mamae." He says.
"I will be okay little one. I have gone with less food in my belly before." I said.
Right after bath time, Calvin comes in. He helps me get them ready for bed and tell them a funny story about him messing up a potion and having cat ears and tail for a week. Once they are asleep, we sit at a table in the next room.
"What happened? I know you got upset, but I couldn't hear why." He asks.
"I would rather not talk about it. Can you keep an eye on them for a bit?" I ask. He nods.
I walk into the main hall and see the same serving girl with a tray of fruit and wine, heading up to the rookery again. I blend into the shadows and silently stalk her.
She stops just before the next flight of stairs. She looks around and looks up to the rookery from the balcony. There was no one else in either the Library or Rookery. She sets down the tray and wine.
I watched her loosen tie around her skirt and chest. I could see her tits and the top of her sex. She continues up the stairs. I wished I was a raven, then I could see what happens as soon as she enters. Just with the wishing, the required spell pops into my head.
I do not waste the opportunity. On my new raven wings, I fly up and perch myself on the other balcony. I was just in time for her entry. Leliana is at her desk reading the reports. She doesn't seem to notice the girl's entrance.
"I figured you would be working late. So, I thought I could bring you some fruit and wine." The girl says. Leliana makes a good show of not being surprised.
"Thank you, Neeka. On the table is fine." She points to the table behind her without even a glance.
Neeka is not put off by her lack of attention. "Would you like me to pour you some wine, my lady?" She asks.
"Please, I am a bit thirsty." Leliana says flipping over the report she had just finished reading. She pours the wine and reaches around Leliana to put it on the table. I see Leliana tense at her proximity. I did not know if it was a good tense or bad tense though.
Neeka becomes bolder and slides her hand from one of Leliana's shoulder to the other and walks around her. She pulls open her dress all the way.
"Is there anything else, I can do for you?" She asks seductively.
Leliana looks up and blushes. I could not watch this anymore. How could she do that to me? I wondered. I flew at Neeka and changed back to a human. She trips on her skirt. "You can leave us." I said.
The girl pales. "You know me, yes?" I asked her. She nods terrified.
"Good, now leave on your own accord, or I toss you over the balcony." She scurries to her feet and closes her dress. I tie it up slightly tighter than necessary with magic.
I turned to face my still stunned wife. "Is this why you never come home? Because you're too busy fucking that human serving girl? Or have you fucked every serving girl you could?" I asked.
"How can you ask me that? You know me Phaedra, I have never been unfaithful to you. Even if I had wanted to fuck another person. I would not have done it without you." She says.
"How can I not ask you that? I barely know you anymore. What else am I supposed to think? You are always working and never home." I was angry.
"And you have been actively blocking our connection." I was no feeling hurt.
"Maker." She says. She lowers her walls and for once invades my mind. I can feel everything she is feeling, and she in turn feels all my emotions. It overwhelms me. I fall to my knees from the sheer force of her emotions.
"That is why I have been blocking our connection. It is too much, for you and for me." She says.
"It only gotten worse since Adamant. I cannot concentrate or think of clearly with you in my mind. I cannot, because I may miss something and all our efforts against Corypheus would crumble. Everything Justinia tried to do would turn to ash." She says angrily, before slamming the walls back up.
She tries to return to her reports. In my mind were two words. 'Fuck that'. An idea comes to me. Glaring, I grab her and take us out of the Rookery. She tries to fight.
"Be still!" I command her. I change into a giant bird and grab her in my talons. We were going to resolve this. I flew us to a high cliff on an Island. I set her down. She had no way of escaping now, she did look. I just arched my eyebrow at her and waited.
"Where are we?" She asks. "On a small island in between Seheron and Tevinter." I reply.
"Fantastic. Change back and take me back to Skyhold, now. I have reports to read." She replies. I glare at her.
"I will not." I say steadfastly.
"I owe you an apology for accusing you of infidelity. I should know better than to let gossip get to me." I said.
"Thank you, now can we go back to Skyhold?" She asks.
"Are you going to right back to your reports?" I asked. She looks away and nods. "Then, no." I reply.
"You have an army of spies Leliana. Let them read your reports for now. This is our marriage and family at immediate risk here." I said.
She huffs out an irritated breath, crosses her arms and sits on a large boulder. She looks away from me. I sigh, sit next to her and wait. I had no idea how to fix us right now. I begin doubting my decision to take her away from her duties and talk.
It seems like hours pass and still we have said nothing. "Leliana, I do understand how busy everyone has become. Josephine is working almost as much as you to get an invite to the ball, to warn Celene." I said. She still refused to look at me, or even speak to me. This was getting us nowhere. I was floundering, and the more I thought about my reactions, the more childish they seemed.
"I concede. I have no idea how to get through to you. All we want is to have you back with us. We are not asking you to stop your duties. We just want you to delegate more and sequester yourself less. We want our family back. Because, we are stronger together than we are apart." I said before turning back into the giant bird and letting her ride on my back.
"I hope things will calm down after the Winter Palace." I said after dropping her at the rookery and shifting back. She remains unvocal until I am about to leave.
"Malika wants you out in the field more. It adds to my stress, but she is right, you will invaluable during battle. I ask that you at least wait until after this business with Empress Celene is finished." She says. I nod.
I wait a minute for her to say anything else. She kisses my cheek and goes back to her reports. I shake my head and change into a raven and fly out her window. I land the tower of our suite and climb down the ladder. I had not realized there was a third section to this tower. I put veilfire in my hand and search for a hatch.
It takes only a few minutes until I do, and quietly I lift the hatch, which is located above our dining area. It gave Calvin quite the fright. "Maker Phae, trying to kill me?" He asks. I shake my head.
"No luck with her huh?" he asks.
"I don't know. All she said was Malika wants me in the field more. She asks I wait until the Empress is taken care of. She says it add to her stress, but she agrees I would be invaluable there." I replied.
"I don't know if that was good or not, but at least you know she cares." He says.
"She didn't say that. After the Winter Palace, you know more than likely I will be having you watch them more. I just do not believe Leli will make more time afterwards either." I admitted what was in my heart.
"Not a problem, Josie and I will be there for you." He says.
"Thanks." I kiss his cheek and see him to the door.
I sit down next to the fire, I should sleep but I just cannot. I close my eyes and journey into the Fade version of Skyhold. "Da'len." He greets me.
"Hahren." I bow my head to him.
"I have not seen you here in some time. What can I do for you?" He asks.
"Solas, you are aware of the connection Leli and I have, yes? You have heard of such things before?" I asked.
"Not usually between a human and Elvehn, but yes. Did you want to find the answers of how to end it?" He asks.
"I do not want to end my relationship with Leli. I am willing to wait for us to be an us again." I said.
"I meant the connection. Do you need the connection to be her wife?" He asks.
"No, I don't think so." I said.
We began walking the fade and speaking to his Spirit friends. I was not paying attention, I remembered all the benefits of the connection. But, with the way things are now, maybe we would be better off without it. "I sense you are having doubts about removing the connection." Solas says.
"The connection isn't all bad, it's just too strong. If we open ourselves to it, we get incapacitated. So, I do not know if removal is best our just better control." I said.
"What would you prefer? What scares you less?" He asks.
"What if severing the connection changes how we feel about each other?" I asked.
He counters with "What if the connection is the only thing that made you two come together?" He asked.
"Uh what?" I asked confused.
"Like the connection you two shared, what if it made you love her?" He asks.
"But, it didn't. I liked before the connection began. I believe she liked me too ." I reply.
"Then your previous question should not be a concern. If you both liked each other before the connection, then is should follow you still will." He says.
"I guess I will just miss teasing her from far away or being able to see through each other's eyes." I said.
"Isn't Malika going to start taking you along with us?" He asks. I nod.
"Would that not help ease a lot of Leliana's stress and worries?" He asks.
"It might. But it also makes it, so she feels when I die. I not only saw her die in Dark Redcliffe, I felt it too." I admit to him.
"Wait a moment, I feel one of my spirit friends here. Wait, she scares off easily." He says. I waited for ten minutes before he returns a spirit beside him.
"Phaedra this is my friend, she is a spirit of wisdom, and knows how to help you." He says, then disappears. Neither of us were particularly fond of him doing that. I kept still and waited.
"I saw you, at Adamant." She says.
"I did not see you." I reply.
"Most mortals don't, I keep to myself. Also, I was trapped in a statue at the time." She says.
I ran through my memories, and I had seen a statue that seemed to be following me with its eyes. I took it as just a trick of the Fade.
"Do you know what happened to Stroud?" I asked.
"No, I escaped on your back once I was freed from my statue." She says.
"I didn't feel you either." I reply.
"I traveled with you to the Exalted Plains, I was not being intrusive to your mind. I went back to the Fade, there too." She says.
"Okay, so how are you supposed to help me?" I asked.
"I was not the only Spirit that hitched a ride from Adamant, I was just the first to leave you." She said.
"Should I be afraid?" I asked.
"No, all the Spirits were good Spirits. Some bad ones tried to, but they were stopped by yourself." She says.
"How?" I asked.
She explained. "The only Spirits that could hitch a ride were the ones your soul deemed safe."
"Is that why I can Shapeshift now?" I asked her.
"You learned it from the others, but if they were no longer with you, you could still do so." She replies.
"So, multiple Spirits are effecting my connection? I am surprised Solas did not notice." I said.
"I am too. As far as the Spirits go, they do want to return to the Fade. They just have certain places they would prefer. I preferred the Fade of Exalted Plains, so that is where I got off." She says.
"So, in order to regain control, I have to escort these Spirits home?" I asked. She nods.
"How can I do that?" I ask.
"Physically go where they want to go." She answers.
"Would you mind escorting back to the Exalted Plains?" She asks, I nod and go back to where I know from there.
"Is this close enough?" I asked.
"It is. Thank you." She says and bows her head to me. I bow back. I felt a fast whoosh and was back in my body.
I knew what I had to do, but I needed some actual sleep first. The embers had died down since I left, though it was still not chilly. I had a blanket and arm wrapped around me. I turned to see my bard laying behind me, with a wave of my hand I set the fire a light to small flame and faced forward again. "Maybe there is hope for us, after all." I wriggled into her and closed my eyes.
The changes were not drastic, but Leliana came to sleep next to me every night. No matter where I was. We still had not spoken much or had the make-up sex, but she did try to come home earlier every night.
As far as learning how to listen to Spirits, well it involved complete silence and a Fade bubble. For the next week, I would travel by flight to the place the Spirit had made its home. Be back before dawn and re-wrap Leli's arms around me.
I had just returned from outside the gates, when Josephine had messaged me to come to her office. I walked in and saw Leliana standing next to her, reports in hand again.
"Did you hear me Leliana?" she asks.
"Yes Josie, I need to leave tonight and set things up for the Winter Palace." She responded it seemed like she had been getting better this whole week too.
She walks my way and my heart is racing again, I have not seen her awake this whole week either. She stops by me, finishes a sentence and kisses my lips chastely. She smiles at me slightly before walking on. We still have not spoken about much of anything. I didn't know why, but at least we weren't completing ignoring each other.
I shivered and shook my head. "She still gets to you huh?" Josie asks.
"If you mean she still makes my heart beat like herd of stampeding nuggalopes, then yes." I reply.
"She seems to be easing off her work more, were you able to speak with her and get her to slow down?" She asks. I shake my head.
"Then it must be because we finally got invites to the Winter Palace." She says.
"Maybe." I replied.
"Oh, dear me I am sorry. I sent for you. You are probably wondering why." She says.
"If you are asking me for my blessing to marry my brother, you have it. Not that he would need my blessing to marry you. His heart is set on you being his wife." I said before any other words could come from her.
Her face is the reddest I have ever seen. It was odd to see her so speechless too. She seems to come back to this plane. "Well, that is good to know. However, that is not why I have asked for you to come. I received this message. It was marked for me personally, so I assume, that is why Leliana did not read it." She says and hands it to me.
"It is for you." She says. I arch an eyebrow.
"Umm. Okay." I said and sit down and begin to read it. With each sentence I could feel my smile wanting to burst forth.
"Phae,
I assume the Mrs. has letters under scrutiny. According to my Mrs. this was the best way to get a private message to you. There is a lot we must catch up on, I would like it if you met me alone first. Leli should be learning shortly about the Empresses Occult advisor. Yeah, it's my wife." This was Zarola's handwriting for sure.
I looked up at Josephine. "It is from my friend Zarola. She wants me to meet her in Halamshiral." I said.
"Well, then that is very good. Leliana will leave tonight. You and the children should travel with her. the roads are much safer now." She says.
"Then we will. I need to speak to Leliana." I said. I hold the letter from Zarola in my hands and head to the rookery.
I see her at her desk, as usual, but the oddity is there is no one else around. I place letter in front of her my chest brushes her back, she shivers and inhales deeply.
"Are we still not talking to each other?" I asked.
"No, I think we need to. This time I will be more receptive." She says. She moves the stack of papers to one side and taps her desk.
"What kind of talking, did you have in mind?" I said suggestively. She stares hard at me.
"We will see." she replies. I sit cross legged on her desk.
"I realize, that our family has been strained to the point of breaking, and yes that is my fault." She says.
"Not just yours, I overreacted." I said. She shrugs and uncrosses my legs but leaves them together.
"Ever since Charter went to Caer Bronch, I have been having to look through my army of spies. I am trying to find another I trust as much to read reports, that do not have other duties. I think I have found it in Rector. Cadash brought him in months ago, before Haven fell. I have been watching him and I think I can trust him." She says.
I lay her head in my lap and push off her cowl to run my fingers through her head. "So, no more super late nights with work?" I asked.
"I don't know, but with Rector's help, maybe. It also helps that we have what we need to go to the Winter Palace. That takes a lot of stress off, and I feel lighter now, as do you." She says probing my mind.
"I am lighter." I said.
"I can tell. After supper, I am supposed to leave for Halamshiral." She says.
"Or later, considering we need to get the kids ready to go too." I said.
"Why would they need to go?" She asks. I hand her the letter she had put aside with her reports.
"A letter from Zarola." She says.
"You should read it." I reply.
"I would prefer the children not go there, it is too dangerous. Maker, I would prefer you stay here. There is too much tension still from the Elven rebellion a year ago. Why would Celene even allow Morrigan to be an advisor?" Leli asks.
"Only one way to find out." I reply.
She is not thrilled about it but concedes with the stipulations that the children stay back in Skyhold, and I flew back in less than a day. I agreed, and we spoke to Calvin and Bethany, again they were more than willing to take care of them in our absence.
"You are both leaving us, then?" Bryce asks.
"Only temporary Da Assan." I reassure him. He nods and looks at Leliana.
"You are doing better, but you had better make sure my mamae comes home safely Leliana." He says and walks away Oisine in his arms.
"That hurts." She says. "Why would I ever not ensure you get home safely?" She asks.
"He thinks you don't care about us anymore." I said.
"Ouch." She says.
"Give it time Leli, and if you are able to keep your promise after this, he will come around again." I said.
"You doubt my promise too?" she asks.
"Only because, for all we know, after the Ball, you may end up being even busier." I said.
"I guess, all I can do is wait then." She says. I nod.
"Leliana, I do intend on traveling with Cadash. I have asked Calvin and Josie to look after them. But, I would still prefer you do it." I said. She nods.
"Then let us hope the Maker allows for me to do so." She responds.
We had left for Halamshiral late night after the children went to sleep.
"Do you have everything?" I asked. She checks and nods. We climb up the ladder up to the tower top. I change into my giant bird form and take off. We would be outside Halamshiral in three hours. Another two on foot and we would be in the city.
We entered the city and sought out lodgings for the night. "Did Zarola tell you where to meet her?" Leliana asks.
"She said in the Alienage, and it is recommended you stay behind. I will go there tonight. I have been getting very unfriendly looks in town." I said. She nods, and I kiss her cheek and then lips before disappearing on her.
I was in the Fade walking to the Alienage. "Is this really where you want to go?" I asked my last Spirit passenger. I didn't see it, but I felt its nod. "Okay. Well, good luck." I said, and Fade shifted into an alleyway. As soon as I enter the square I am accosted.
"Ain't you a pretty thing. Give me your gold and that necklace." A gruff voice said. I handed him the objects. He pats me down, groping me as well."The ring too." He says.
"No. You have groped me, I have given you my coin and necklace. But the ring stays.
"Either you give it to me now, or I take my pleasure from you, kill you and steal it anyway." He says.
"I have tried to do this with the least amount of violence, but you have pushed me too far." I said.
"I have a knife to your throat one move and I slice it." He says. I fade shift behind him and knock him out and take back my items.
"I thought I felt you. Come along then." Morrigan's familiar voice says. I follow her to an enclosed shack, it was a nice shack but a shack all the same.
"I thought you were Celene's Arcane Advisor, why would you stay here?" I asked gesturing the shack.
"I don't Kieran and I have suites in the palace. I insisted Zarola stay with us, but she insisted to stay here to make my life at court easier." She says.
"Is it?" I ask.
"Not in the slightest. Kieran and I miss her, Nelaros and Adaia so much." She replies.
"Nelaros and Adaia?" I ask.
"Our twins." She replies. "It will be easier to show you." She adds before entering the shack. I do no fail to notice the Eluvian, but this one felt different. Safe.
"As I said there is much to discuss. Hello my love." Zarola says greeting Morrigan with a kiss and a hug for me.
I follow her to the next room two babes sleep in a cradle for two. Both have black hair with copper undertones, and I could see both Morrigan and Zarola in their features.
"There was no male donation at all?" I asked.
"None. As if either of us would let another touch us in such a way." Morrigan says.
"How?" I asked.
"Magic, but only someone skilled in Keeper Magic can do it." Zarola says.
"More explanations will come first things first, we leave this room." Morrigan says.
We do and find ourselves back in the dining area. "The Eluvian is safe." Zarola says. I nodded as we walked past it.
"Anyways, Keepers have magic that helps organic things grow." She picks up a grape and make it grow to the size of an apple. She offers it to me. I bite into it and it still has plenty of grape taste. She hands it to Zarola who finishes eating it.
"I discovered that I could make parts of my body bigger as well, mostly by accident." She says, she begins to pull down the top of her dress.
"I had been pleasuring myself one night, because I could not make it to Zarola for the night. I was kneading my breast and thought that I would not mind them bigger. So, the idea came to me to try the growing spell." She says.
Before my eyes she makes her breast the same size as Zarola's milk laden breast. She repeats the process with her other one. It was very impressive.
"Wow." I said.
"Indeed. Touch it." Morrigan commands.
"Umm?" I look at Zarola she nods that it is okay. I touch it and it feels very much real. I did get a little carried away and stopped when Morrigan moaned. "Oh, oops… I'm sorry. I got carried away. Can you make them shrink?" I asked.
"I cannot, the growing spell is temporary on anatomy. Two hours at most." She says.
"How did you put a baby in Zarola then?" I asked. She pulls down her pants until only her small clothes are seen, her hand lights up and I see her shaping something above her clit, until a soft bulge is seen.
"By making a cock." She says. I am impressed further.
Zarola has hunger in her eyes and begins touching Morrigan's bulge until it becomes hard and rigid." She says.
"Zarola made something that gives you all the same sensations, but without the spell." Morrigan says stopping Zarola's hands. She seems to come back to herself and finds a box.
"It is like those fake cock toys, only there is no straps to hold it in place." She says.
I open the box and see a fake cock that was curved on one side and straight out on the other. "These runes," she points them out. "Makes it so that both can feel what the other is feeling without taking away from their own sensations. I had this one made for you. It has not been used, so don't worry about that." She says.
She points to the curved side. "This side goes in the wearer. The curve makes it sit securely in there. But make sure it is well slicked or it will hurt when you move." She says. "The other side would go into the one it is to be used on." She says.
One of the babies begins to fuss. "Nelaros is hungry again. We will enjoy your cock when I return, after Phaedra leaves." Zarola says and passionately kisses Morrigan.
"I will show you how to use the growing spell this way." Morrigan says pointing to her strained cock.
It had been surprisingly easy to adapt the spell in such a way. Unfortunately, I had two hours now before the spell would end. I was not sure Leli would be agreeable to exploring this, we still hadn't made love yet. I Fade shifted and headed to the inn and then shape shifted into a bird to try and find Leliana's room.
I saw her leave the sleeping area for the bath area. The thought of her in a bath was making my own cock strain. I sat at the table and covered my lower half with a large blanket, folded double.
"How was your visit with Zarola, did you see Morrigan?" She asks.
"It was a good visit and yes. Morrigan was still there when I left." I said.
She saw the box in front of me. "A gift?" She asks.
"For us. Us as in not the children too." I reply and let her open it. I explained to her what is was and why it was shaped as such.
"I hope we can try it soon." She says.
"We will. Let us just get everything situated first. We can try it when you come home again." I said.
"Yes, I think that would be great, hopefully my desires will be better aligned. Too much stress is leaving me with a distinct lack of wanting sex right now." She says.
"I understand completely. Did you get everything set up?" I asked.
"Just my room for the night. Tomorrow, I am heading to the Winter Palace to set up lodgings for the Inquisition. Not all of them. Josie, Cullen, Myself and Malika first and foremost. Then we will see how many Malika can bring with her." She says. She yawns.
"Head to bed Leli. I will join you soon. I still need some food and a bath." I replied. She nods and crawls into bed fully clothed.
I eat until I am sure she is sound asleep, then I head to the bathing room. I had about an hour left with this thing. I put a muffling and repel ward up and I begin to stroke myself it does not take long to spill my seed in the spit bucket.
I get into the bath and stroke myself more while looking at Leli, I spill my seed on the floor. I leave it there until I have bathed myself then I take a rag and clean both the floor and spit bucket.
By the time everything had been cleaned up, I was back to normal. I put on my clean small clothes and laid in the bed with Leliana. She snuggles into me without waking. I nuzzle her shoulder and fall asleep.
I snuck out of her room while she was away and went to see Zarola again.
"So, expecting another baby?" I asked. She giggles.
"No. She finished on my back. I didn't get a chance to tell you that you could use the toy at the same time as the growth spell. The way it is curved doesn't affect thrust, and sometimes I feel very naughty and want both holes filled." She says.
"First we actually have to have the sex again. We have not made love in months." I said.
"Why not?" She asks. I shared what we had been going through lately and it was nice to have someone who understood so well.
"There were times Morrigan and I could not speak or see each other for weeks. Sometimes, I traveled with her and did not want to acknowledge her. There were too many ears." She says.
"Morrigan did try, quite often. To speak with me, during those times. No one knows of our relationship." She says.
"And it does not bother you?" I asked.
"I do it by choice, from what I have learned of nobles and the game, her life is at stake if I don't." She replies.
"That makes it easier?" I ask.
"Not always." She says.
She changes the subject. "Are you going to the ball?" She asks.
"Not that I know of. I promised Leliana I would fly home before the day is over." I reply.
"That does not mean you have to stay home." She says.
"Come again?" I ask.
"Maybe later." She grins, and I shake my head.
"Did she make you promise to stay home?" I shook my head.
"She can't. If the Inquisitor needs me here, she cannot do anything to stop it. Why do you ask?" I reply.
"Morrigan, would like me and the twins to go to Skyhold. It is getting even more dangerous here. She wants us safe." Zarola answers.
"What of Kieran?" I ask.
"The court is used to him being there, if she sends him with us, they may realize there is more danger. Which, with these nobles causes panic, from that panic many Elven people are hurt." She says.
"Hurt?" I ask. She nods.
"I would rather not go into detail, just imagine what happens if they begin to riot." She says. I do, and it causes me to shiver.
"Good point." I reply. Elves were always blamed for any bad thing that happened.
"I could take you with me tonight when I leave. Talk it out with Morrigan. I will come back before I leave for your decision." I said. She nods and yawns.
"Naptime?" I asked.
"Yeah. I am exhausted by the time they finish eating, but my breasts feel so much better." She says.
