California.

[He's probably being played for a monkey, but curiosity is getting the better of him.]

Where you from that you do?

I learned of magic in Tevinter. [ The way he says the name suggests the experience was not a pleasant one. ] My former master lived in Minrathous.

[ It never occurs to him that there might be someone who doesn't know of Tevinter. Everyone knows something about Tevinter. ]

I've never heard of... [ He says it slowly so he doesn't stumble over the word. ] ...California. Where is it located?
