You speak for him. Projecting your guilt at your choices onto Alistair's will is the same as taking it away all together. You can't know what goes through his head, Riona. Just because you are in love and married to him does not mean you knew what was in his head when he found out who he was. It was his destiny to become the King of Ferelden. It was right.

[And she tries to measure her words carefully about the Anora thing because honestly? She's truly starting to believe Alistair is completely different that it isn't just his memories being tampered with. Ten years ago she might have had lofty ideals that the Maker would guide them and love would find a way no matter what.

You know what- maybe she should be blunt, because honestly this girl... she loves you to death Riona but she wants you to snap out of it.]

You miss him and so you project some sort of romantic fantasy that perhaps this Alistair could come to love you too, that you could save him.

[Okay maybe she's being a little harsh.]
