[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.

I think I might just do that.

[waiting for you to elaborate. Not...quite sure if you caught that admittedly crappy pick-up line or if you're taking it as something else.]

Someone told me today I should make the most of my new-found freedom, such as it is in this place. I may not like being trapped here, but doing nothing makes me just as trapped as if I were still on the end of Danarius' chain.
[Not that he'll ever let go of that hate, of course, Metaphorical freedom will never be his] She said I should try things, it is what free people do?
[That last part was largely a question if that was correct or not, because, after all, he knows no person freer than Isabela]

But [sounding serious again] as for trying new things, it's a good start. You're finding out what you like and what you don't like, instead of just relying on tradition or what you've been told.

And I have little experience in most things particularly...that. Perhaps it is time I found out what is so desirable about it. [Then, in a more amused tone] And you have been trying for a long, long time.

Well, you know where my room is.
[...reminds self not to even mention the word virgin.
At least not until afterwards.]

Lesser of two evils and all that]
I will be there shortly.
