No but they do have a king. He wears a little crown and sits in judgment.

Here's a better one: the Arishok kills the Viscount of Kirkwall.

If you were hoping for shock and horror, you'll have to try harder; that one I know of. But it's too soon for news to have traveled to... wherever it is that they have mustaches like that.

[whiteknightnecromancer]

I could have sworn that was 35 or 36. [Mutters and shrugs.]

Tevinter if the accent hasn't already given me away. And yes, I am a mage. Not a magister.

[fictionalised]

Is it true you drink the tears of your slaves? Seems a bit too salty for my tastes.

[whiteknightnecromancer]

[Dorian's laugh is forced but not very hard.]

I prefer red wine myself. I'm sure some idiot magister somewhere has tested the restorative powers of drinking tears.

[fictionalised]

Well, it's good to hear the world hasn't changed. I was beginning to fear we were making progress.

What do they say about the Champion of Kirkwall in the future? I'm asking for a friend.

[whiteknightnecromancer]

I think people will continue enjoying wine for centuries to come. Abandoning that tradition would be a regression.

You may want to cover your friend's ears. According to Varric Tethras, he did not die at Chateau Haine. It was a good story anyway.

[fictionalised]

If I died at Chateau Haine, then I'd have no new adventures for Varric to greatly exaggerate, and then where would we be? I can't deprive the people of that.

[whiteknightnecromancer]

Are you saying the Champion of Kirkwall didn't fight an army of ogres and fly away on dragonback? I am shocked to hear it and my life would be quite dull without that mental image.

[fictionalised]

There was a dragon involved... but I imagine it's better when Varric tells it. And makes up lies to make it more interesting.

[whiteknightnecromancer]

Very likely so. His romance serial is an atrocity against books but the rest make for interesting reading. Well, at least he can spell.
