   Summary

   "I put my hand up across the dartboard,
   Then I told you to shoot.
   What if it hurts?
   What if it hurts?
   It's gonna."
   - Tommy Lefroy

   Aatashi has lived a long life of struggle, pain, and blood. It is what they know, and all they are. They had though that they were past the feelings they radily avoided once they had settled in with the Antivan Crows and taken a job from a man named Varric. After meeting Lucanis Dellamorte... they are not so sure. They can no longer live their life wandering through the past, not with the world at stake, and not when they finally have something to care about. Still, they can't help but stand away from the others. They were once too eager to care, and now they are too afraid. What if it hurts?

   Unfortunately, they know that it will.
