leliana  does  not  even  notice  cassandra’s  presence  until  she  feels  a  hand  upon  her  shoulder.  gentle   and  firm   ,   if  the  two  could  ever  coexist.  she  doesn’t  need  words  to  know  what  cassandra  is  going  to  say  ,  her expression speaks on its own.   “   i  know  what  you  are  going  to  say,   ”    she  starts  with  a  small  sigh.   “   i  cannot  simply  relax   ,   not  while  corypheus  is  still   out  there.   ”
