Summary
Soren Surana, Archmage, Arl, and Hero of Ferelden, remembers life in the Ferelden Circle as a constant, dangerous dance between Mages and Templars enraptured by the Chant of Light. It was a dance he knew well. Jylan Ansera, Tranquil, Chemist, and Guildsman, danced so poorly his feet were cut off- metaphorically, of course. Not that these things really matter, you see: Surana is not to be painted with the same brush as other elves and Ansera isn't even a person anymore. Neither one would see any value in their shared heritage even if Shartan himself popped out of the Fade to explain it to them, because there's nothing to explain. So they're elves, boo-hoo, wasn't surviving the Circles an ordeal in itself without everyone focusing on their delicate ears and luminous eyes? And their soft hair? And their pretty, pretty faces?
Who cares about dead and dusty Arlathan when there's strife and loss enough right here?
