If we're doing math about it, then I am the consistent factor in each problem, however.

If I didn't want things so badly, I might have gotten them. Well-behaved mages are allowed to leave, sometimes. Play at having power at a court, or allowed to research under supervision. If I hadn't wanted Hawke so badly, I might not have scared him so much.

That's playing into oppressive rules that you've said yourself are awful. I wouldn't fault you for it out of self-preservation, but you aren't wrong to want better for yourself.

In life. Or in love.
