But he did lie knowing full well what Anders had done and how deeply it hurt me. I understand why when we were strangers but once we became intimate that reasoning shouldn't have held.
Honestly, he should have told you sooner, I will fault him that. He should have talked to Marc and shared that with you, but you have to remember that for him protecting Marc is more than just important to him than anything. It's part of why he came to be, it's probably something he will never be able to shake his need to do.
It took me a while to wrap my head around it, but those two are closer than siblings, closer than twins. They're integral to each other.
And I'm aware he's not a spirit it is simply the only real understanding I have of how Steven came into existence. A scared, hurt, young boy called out and Protection answered.
It's okay to hurt though and to be caught up in that feeling, to need time, what's important is finding the gumption to move past it. Hopefully together.

He is not doing well, is he?

No, but Marc and I are taking care of him. What about you? How are you, Hawke?

It is... quiet without him in my life.

Tell him I will talk to him again. I do promise that.

And I will pass that along.
