( she should have done something. even though if cole knew it wasn't happening there was no chance that she would, the failure weighs on her shoulders. what could she have done? nothing, and yet-- the doubts weight at her mind, one on top of another. she is no dalish elf anymore, her faith lies in tatters, and she must save or kill the man she loves.

it is all too much for her to sort through at the moment. she'll need time and silence, elera thinks, and there's no saying how much of that she'll be granted here. better to square her shoulders and continue on and refuse to dwell. )

( allies. she could use some right about now. )
