Understand this: I will brook no threat to this nation…from you or anyone.
“Why don’t I save you some time? Yes, I wish I could have saved my family from Branka. I wish I’d been a better mate. Maybe she’d have stayed at home with a belly full of baby Oghren and never gone for the anvil. Maybe I failed her. Yes, I came to the surface because I’m barely a dwarf anymore. My family is dead. My honor as a warrior is long gone. I’ve lost my caste and my house and I have nothing else to lose.”

↳ “I don’t really have to save the world, do I? Oh, Creators, I do. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. I never wanted to be a warden. I never wanted to leave my clan. I hate the warden life. I hate this. I hate everything. Am I a coward? I suppose I am…But I don’t want to die and if I ignore the Blight, I’ll probably end up dying regardless. Sigh. I guess I’ll save the world then…if I have to…”
Varric apparently has tried his hands at making webcomics (Under the name Varric Hussie) and told me to read this one he just started putting out called MAGESTUCK. I’m kind of offended by the title. In fact, the first act or so is nothing but a MAGE being opressed and stuck inside the circle tower. Apparently templars and wardens are supposed to come in at some point but I can’t get over John Magebert right now and how desperately I hope he finds his way out of the tower. The plot is also rather confusing and nonsensical, almost as if Hawke is helping Varric write it.
I also feel as if Varric is mocking me with this comic in some regard - like he thinks that the plight of the mages is some kind of joke.
JOHN MAGEBERT, YOU CAN UNSTUCK YOURSELF FROM THE TOWER. FIGHT FOR YOUR FREEDOM. JOIN THE MAGE REBELLION.
