[Sometimes it frustrates her. Being a friend and sharing as openly as she does of her own culture but still being locked out.]
Sina-- That isn't an answer to the why. Right now, the position of the Inquisition in Kirkwall is a precarious one where we are being watched all the time and judged just as often. It might not feel like it but we are. This puts us in a very awkward position. Did you consult with anyone in a leadership position about it? Did you speak with the people of Kirkwall?
[Hi Sina did you want to become intimately aware of just how worried Araceli actually is on a daily basis and the level of worry she tries to channel into being productive and getting some of results? Because you are now? Let her take a breath. Let her attempt to explain why she's worried.
And it's laughable to use 'if' because it's Kirkwall after all and the Inquisition is hilarious at rumour management and information leaks so she's going to use 'when' instead, sorry about that.]
What do you think will happen when people find out that a Dalish elf mage was involved in something involving this level of magic when an apostate destroyed the Kirkwall Chantry setting into motion the Mage-Templar war? [That's a cold way to put it for as careful as she is with her tone, how gentle she is with it because she's worried. Sina isn't stupid or an innocent naive little girl but there are things that the two of them are familiar with that the other one isn't. Damage control, reputations, how rumours spread like flux on a ship? Araceli's uncomfortably familiar with that side of life.] What if you had been hurt, Sina? The Veil is thin here, we've had to close rifts here - what if something had happened?
[What if you'd died? What if another incident like the one in Skyhold happened again? What if that happened and you died?]
