Her powers are somewhat limited, but I'm the first to admit I still don't fully understand how all the different magic systems work, so you'll need to ask her for the details.

As for the cybernetic implants, that simply means she has mechanical and computer parts integrated into her bodily systems.

Why would someone do that?

[It's not judgmental but honestly curious. If you can be healed with magic, why get something implanted instead?]

Unless they wanted to do something a normal person couldn't, I suppose.

[He muses on it for a moment, then shakes his head.]

I'll touch base with her when there's a chance, then. I'd be pleased to help Wrath get up and about again. Being bedridden is terribly boring.

There's any number of reasons why someone might do it - if they need a replacement limb or organ or if they're born with some sort of disability that cybernetics can either fix completely or at least help alleviate - blindness, for example. In Wrath's case though, I believe it was done so she would be stronger in a fight, since she's a soldier.

I see. I suppose it's hardly different than putting on armor, other than being far more permanent, but I'm no stranger to the concept of armies doing what they must to win.

[Like drinking darkspawn blood, apparently, in the case of the Gray Wardens. How had Anders never told him about that before? He's still reeling even though he'd learned this weeks ago.]

Still, if they're causing problems, better to get them out. I'll certainly help in any way I can. Just let me know when you'll be working on her.

[Beverly smiles.]

I will, thank you.

[But now for her concerns... she tilts her head and her brow furrows.]

May I ask you something? Not related to Wrath.
