A lot of pressure to live up to.
Some people may feel that death is an escape, you're right.
But it's also a responsibility he has to other people.
To Kirkwall.
Who's Varric?

His wife.

[ THATS A JOKE. ]

His greatest friend, a writer. He wrote the book about him. About us. Our time in Kirkwall. It wasn't finished by the time I was executed, but I read it here.

[ HELP. honestly she wouldn't even think twice about this, she's so used to thinking of her boys as a solid unit also basically married to each other. ]

Was it everything you thought the story would be?
I guess the question is if Hawke doesn't go back to be the Champion, what would happen?

It's an interesting book. It cannot decide if I am a doomed but romantic revolutionary that is destined to die for his cause or a lunatic abomination who has no control over himself anymore, but I suppose that is accurate to reality.

It's an odd feeling to be written about. Varric was my friend too. But he decided he was done with me, at the end.

Hawke has already been forced out of Kirkwall, and I imagine the world will keep turning. The war is raging during his time, though I am long dead. I do not think he has the power to save the world anymore. Or at least, the forces that threaten it are too large.

I guess the question is if you see yourself as either of those, none of those or both of those. But I also suppose that stories aren't always quite so accurate to life. Even if they're based on real events.
I'm sorry to hear that though.
... when you put it that way it sounds a bit sad to think about.
Even knowing this is the state of the world after you're gone.
But I also don't think it's wrong to realize that perhaps things really have changed.
