And who taught you that one? No, wait, let me guess - the Circle? And the Chantry? And the cough is fine, I'm a big boy, I've had worse. I'm not dead, Christine, Sam, and Eirlys are seeing to that now. [Not yet.] Our augurs and shamans have been around longer than you have, our gods are older than the Chantry. Lots of people like to forget that Andraste was as dirty and unwashed as we were, she wouldn't have looked like any of your paintings or your statues, I'd be amazed if she had all her teeth. Why wouldn't a spirit pass on? Don't you think they'd get tired and want to rest too? It's not like it is for us but nothing is permanent, we know that better than anyone else in all of Thedas. And gods can be killed too. Why else would it take a year of prayer and offerings for the new spirit to take the place of the old?
