Who: Cole to everyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Pathstone
When: Now
[Cole is actually looking at the camera, which is a minor miracle for those familiar with his habit of leaving his communicator next to him and pointing at the ceiling.]
How do mortals know what you're feeling? Varric used to tell me what it was, or Jove, or Solas, but they're gone and now I don't know what these feelings are. I can tell how to help other people and how to navigate their hurts but I can't do it with my own.
[He gives a small sigh and looks off somewhere. A fluff slug climbs over the communicator screen.]

Clarel made the right decision in the end, but she was too late to save quite a lot of people who needn't have died. People always have this urge to close ranks when something terrible happens, but that's when communication is most important. You never know who might have an alternative you haven't thought of for being too close to the problem.

[And that was sometimes the hardest thing. Living with the consequences.]

[Hard or not, it's always the better option for anyone who's not just intent on being terrible in the first place. As little as Adalwolfe knew of Clarel, he didn't think she was a bad person at heart, just a frightened one with a slew of people looking to her for answers she didn't have. She made the wrong call, but it could happen to anyone. And it did. So many of the Wardens fell to blood magic to try and save themselves. It was horrific and could have been prevented, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand.]
