...You take a certain joy in twisting expectations and threatening to shake the very roots of what people think they know from the ground. [Not admonition. He's impressed. But then, such is something a Witch of the Wilds would do.
Hard to comment on the whole 'my mother is an immortal dragon elven god' thing, though, if he's honest. Because how do you argue against that?
Her thoughts and musings are challenging, and while he has traveled far and wide, they have been for less than religious reasons, no out of finding artifacts, not searching for a strange family member. He hasn't sought out the obscure places she must have, places that would not be on any map or mentioned in any history book (none approved by the Chantry, at any rate). He feels the urge to go rooting around in less than approved books.
His faith, though, however twisted the words may have become, gives him comfort. As any faith should. Instead of picking apart her theories, he instead ventures thus:]
I'll not suggest that there are questions that cannot be answered. I do suggest there may be some that one would be better of not knowing the answers to. I don't know where this one lies, but...if you do find an answer, one that satisfies you. What a god is. What would you even do with that information?
