Weird.

I know what it's like to be a bastard, you know. People talk about you, sometimes right in front of you. And it doesn't exactly make you popular, most of the time. I never wanted to father a child and abandon it.

Of course, he's Morrigan's kid, so he's probably seen half of Thedas. Who knows if it's ever mattered? Or if he even wants a father? Morrigan didn't have one, and she turned out...okay, bad example. But everything hard about her, that's because of the mother she had, not because of the father she didn't. And it's not hard to tell she's raising Kieran differently. He'll be just fine with her. He is just fine with her.

I guess I don't really belong in the picture when it comes to Kieran. I try not to think about it too much.

But sometimes I wonder how he's doing.

You're a man worth knowing. I hope he gets the opportunity to sit down with you and talk one day, perhaps when he's older. I can't imagine any young man's life worse for your being a part of it. Not necessarily as a father, but... generally speaking.

[cheesewheels]

Yeah, but that's the thing, isn't it? I'm his father, or else I'm...what?

There isn't really a good name for the guy who agreed to father you in exchange for his life.

[riftmarked]

A friend. A mentor.

[cheesewheels]

I can already hear Morrigan laughing.

[riftmarked]

I don't know what her problem is with you. You'd think she'd be kinder.

[cheesewheels]

Eh, I gave as good as I got. Sometimes I think she and I deserve each other. We're both too mouthy for our own good.

[riftmarked]

Oh?

[cheesewheels]

I think my best one was telling her that her nose looked like her mother's.

Or making her guess the name of Andraste's husband. She couldn't do it, you know.

[riftmarked]

I'm glad you've... ah, matured.

Somewhat.
