[His hand comes up to rub at his chin, his annoyance still flaring in him even as his tone evens out.]
Right. Sorry. I'm not trying to sound 'riled up,' I simply thought I'd escaped the Judgement Committee when I learned none of my party came with me.
I don't want to do anything except live my life in peace. That's all I've ever wanted. I said my prayers, listened to the Sisters in town and the minute I was able to conjure fire, I was thrown into prison and considered unworthy to exist with the common man.
I just want my life to be my own again. Not the Circle's, not the Templar's, not the Chantry's. I've fought long and hard to see it happen while others simply sit idly by and wish for better, so I think I've earned that right for myself; and if that means I spend the rest of my days burning darkspawn, then I'll take it. Better to be of use than gathering dust like some old useless book.
