Now that's a story and not exactly the sort of thing Dorian is expecting. It's odd to picture. He's met Cullen when he's rather cynical and thinking of him as an optimistic young boy is a bit strange.

"I suppose that does explain it," he says with a slight not. As a child Dorian wanted nothing more than to be a Magister like his father. Those were the days when he thought he would be just like every other mage in Tevinter. How wrong he had been.

"Templars are a bit of a joke in Tevinter," he explains, "The Army is much more respected. I would never dream of enlisting. That's for the lower classes. Yet, here I am with guards and Templars. My life is a very strange fever dream at the moment."

Dorian is not sure he likes it. He misses Tevinter a great deal and yet he's adjusting. It's a strange situation.
