It's alright, Alfy... you were just trying to keep me from getting hurt. [ which is exactly what ended up happening!! at least hawke did catch her in the end. ]

If it hadn't been for you holding me back at the start, I may have gotten really hurt... so thank you.

[ rests her head on his shoulder and looks over at the pyre. ]

I really hate that he's alone in there... even if that's what he prefers...
