Sina?

Who's spoken to you and what have they accused?

Let me know if you need me. Please.

[Awkward pause.]

Sina? When we were casting, your shard wasn't giving you any trouble.

I've never seen anyone cast magic that powerful. I thought with the Veil so thin here, it would trouble you more, especially when casting something so powerful. When I...saw the blood on your hands, I thought...but that was so little blood, that couldn't have been the reason your shard never flared. I don't understand it.

[That gets a bit of pause. Pel's voice comes back a little louder.]

I trust you with power like that. It's probably safer for you than normal magic, if the garden was any indication. But growing one tree with a group of other blood mages sounds a terribly pointless risk and I'd do you a disservice not to point it out. The vhenadahl doesn't come from us, the Dalish, with or without blood to grow it. It springs from the city elves, they plant it and water it and it's their own way of remembering who they are. It's supposed to come from their life. I'm sorry, it's a tangent, I'm not exactly qualified to speak on behalf of city elves, but--

[She deflates, hearing the hypocrisy in her own words. What's the difference between the vhenadahl and the Chantry garden? What makes some meddling good and the rest of the meddling bad?]

Did we do the right thing? Why didn't we ask the Viscount for his permission? I've had a Templar asking me these questions and I'd like to know what to say.

[There is no anger in Pel right now, only fear. But there is always fear, and sometimes it sounds much like anger in anyone else. Sina likely knows the difference.]

Assistance is rebuilding houses, pulling corpses out of water so they can get on with their lives and their traditions. Their traditions. It's not blood-magicking a tree where one would've grown of its own accord through completely non-magical means.
mythalenaste: (all these fears deep inside)

No, that's--no. [The air goes out of her.] I stand by you with what we've done. All I want is for you to be careful. For all I know, the citizens of Halamshiral absolutely love your tree and the citizens of Kirkwall will come around. Just be judicious in the future, vhenan. The more of these extraordinary incidents that happen, the more people will be able connect it all to you. And I'm not losing you.
