    Summary

    Elharen is a Tranquil, and Tranquil do not have desires. They do not make decisions of consequence. They do not feel emotions.

    But the more Cullen is around her, the more he starts to wonder if those strange little moments - moments when she says too much, or hesitates too long, or looks at him directly in the eyes and holds his gaze - aren't maybe indications that she's in there somewhere, pounding against the doors of her captivity.

    There is someone there, beneath the brand, begging to be seen. He wants to see her but the shadow of Tranquility is deep and frightening, memories of its misuse in Kirkwall darkening Cullen's nightmares.

    Word of a cure comes, and changes everything.
