…killed to get, she has chosen to look at it in a new light. It might have been Falon’Din’s vallaslin, but now she wears it as the mark of one who walks the Vir Banal’ras—“the Way of Shadow”. And Falon’Din himself can pry it from her skin.

…who were no better than the Tevinter scum who’d erased her clan and family. She doesn’t talk about how hard that was to internalize and understand, but it almost broke her. Now, even though she can’t rid herself of the vallaslin she…
