[Fenris has been wandering the grounds of the castle today, much like a tiger would pace the boundaries of its cage. Testing the extent of his loss, how far he could go, how long he could be away before the castle inevitably dragged him back into that accursed lobby. At least out here, he could enjoy a scant hour or so of peace and quiet before the horrible, tugging and NEW need to talk to others started niggling at him.

It was on this walk that he's come upon the cemetery. He wanders through it, unable to properly read all the words upon the stones, but recognising it for what it is regardless. Humans may not bury their dead in Thedas, but elves most certainly do. He crouches down by one to feel the earth, before opening his journal, grimacing a little to even have to speak into it. He'd never get used to that]

I have been told that death here is not permanent. In two weeks, the dead return as if nothing had happened at all. If that is so, why is there a graveyard here? That suggests people remain dead, does it not?

...Unless you are prone to burying people alive. Which I would not put past some of you.

Is that bad?

It is in my world.

But my Creator was very kind...

Are you so certain of that?

What do you mean?

There are those who can feign kindness, or tell you what they are doing is kindness, because you know no better.

But he's my Creator...if he would ask it of me I'd do anything for him.

[Quietly] I understand that feeling only too well. You will find it may not be what you believe it is, however.

What do you mean...? [ ;; Fenris ]

He has given you a world to believe in, and you will know no better until someone or something shows you it is not as good as you think it.

...He could very well be a good man, but those who keep others like this rarely really are good.

Do you think...that is why he won't give me a purpose?

Did he not give you one before? What did he have you do?

No. I've asked him before...but he says he doesn't need anything of me. If only he'd ask me to be his daughter, his wife--I would be. But he says I'm perfect the way I am. I don't know what to do...

[Oh bb, he feels for you so much right now :<]

I admit, I am the last person able to give you advice on what to do when you are given freedom to become your own person. It is far easier said than done, when you know nothing of it.

But he's my Creator... [ doesn't that mean she should listen to him ): ]

We are worth more than those who created us, either literally or figuratively.

You really think so?

I hope this is the case, at least.

Thank you... That is the first time anyone's ever told me that.

Then it seems you are well overdue it.

You're very kind.

Now that is something I don't hear often.

Really? Why not? You seem very kind to me. You didn't have to be nice to me at all.

I tend to come off as a little...abrasive.

I think you're very honest.
