Morrigan knew that Angel was upset about the Winter Palace and yet, she has hardly spoken of it. "Maybe, it's her way of coping with the events of the past few days," she thought to herself, and yet the girl is quite lively for it having been dealt with just the day before.
That night, they set up camp and Angel helped her with the tent and getting some firewood for the fire, all the while hoping that her father isn't mad with her for leaving the Chantry in Orlais.
That night, she rubbed her neck when Morrigan asked her about the tics. Angel thought about it for a moment and said to her, "I've been doing this tic for over eighteen years now, and the other two, well, I got those two started at age fifteen. So it's normal for me to do one of the three at some point or another Morrigan."
Finally, they arrived at the Western Approach and they dismounted at one of the camps where a young Elven mage was waiting for them He introduced himself as Anerien and that he was from the Dalish clan of Tearnay . Morrigan nodded in reply and said, "This young lady is Lena Trevelyan and Cullen Rutherford's daughter, Angel. And she is filling in for her mother, who died over eighteen years ago."
Angel blushed as she removed her helmet and answered for herself. "It's a pleasure to meet you Anerien, Wynne has often spoke of you in her letters to my mother. My mother was a mage within the Ostwick Circle of Magi. And papa, well, he's a warrior at SkyHold. Keeping the Inquisition forces together and getting some more recruits in almost daily."
The Elven mage nodded when he noticed that she was blind and they shared a look, speaking volumes. Angel felt the silence deepening when she stated rather simply, "Yes Anerien, I was born blind, but that hasn't stopped me from learning some healing magic and how to be a fine warrior. But what marks me as truly different here, however, is the fact the not only am I protected by the Maker, but by the Dread Wolf as well."
