‘ okay so you’ve just listed three of my advisors. well, you dropped leliana leaving us with two, but still that is two too many, ’ evee smiled with fear in her eyes. ‘ cassandra is a scary lady, i don’t think you want to go messing with her. ’ she almost brought up the fact that the seeker had her in chains the first time they met, but she didn’t think that was an appropriate story for someone her age. ‘ why not try someone nice like blackwall or dorian? ’
❝ Mister Curly is a target too ! No one’s safe from me. ❞ EVEN IF Cassandra held a terrifying aura about her, it was Lelianna who frightened the girl more. With the former, she could hide away when in trouble but the latter ... she was too used to the shadows, making Holly too exposed even in complete darkness. ❝ She needs a smile not a scary frown. ❞ LITTLE PAUSE. ❝ Mister Blackwall gave me a wooden toy, so he’s safe, and Mister Dori ... He tells good jokes. ❞

“ don’t worry , maybe if we ask nicely the kitchen ladies will teach us how to make them . i’ll be there with you all the way , alright ? ” honestly aetlus himself wasn’t familiar with sweets outside of his life within the dalish clan . so it was going to be a brand new experience for him to learn at least . one should seek knowledge – no matter how small it may seem – when he has wandered far away from his home . the inquisitor was then prickled by the child’s sudden question . “ well , sometimes the bad thing was something that they thought they had control over . then , it turned out that they couldn’t do anything when they had it – so it makes them feel sad & heavy in their chests for the rest of their lives . ”
❝ Won’t they be mad ? I stole from them ... ❞ THOUGH WITH the idea of knowing how to make the little treats was buzzing within her mind, the little girl knew of the trouble she was in. Thievery was best left to those with better skills at it, one being her mother &&. others ... people she did not know the names of. ❝ That’s not fun or happy ... Can I make them happy ? I’ve got frogs for everyone ! Maybe they need sweets too, sweets make me happy when I’m sad. ❞

maker, no, she immediately thought when holly mentioned sera’s name. she really ought to keep a close eye on who it was she was spending time with. evee wasn’t exactly sure if sera was a good influence on a growing child. though in all fairness, even she knew that even with sera’s influence holly was too smart for her own good considering how crafty and quick witted she was, just like her mother. it scared evee to death.
‘ i don’t know, kid, ’ she sighed like an old man. ‘ who do you even want to pull a prank on? ’
❝ Miss Josie, Miss Cassandra, pa, everyone is a target ! ❞ MAKER WATCH over whichever poor souls little Holly had her heart set onto prank, to toy with. Something Sera had mentioned, pranking is to be fun &&. rather harmless ; to a degree. The rogue had even been so kind to present ideas forward for certain people. ❝ Mess with Miss Josie’s quills, glitter in dummies for Miss Cassandra ... Miss Leli is scary so she’s safe from pranks. ❞
EDITS: 1/??

“ again ? well , da’len , since you asked so nicely … ” her enthusiastic nature is positively infectious and heart-warming , a treat for the inquisitor ; hazel carries the same smile on his face as he sits on the ground and focuses his magic , pulling at the fade , tugging across a small fog that swarms around them . he then casts a small ball of light that dances around her playfully – almost like it had a life of its own . “ you know , if you ask it nicely , it might show you where the sweets are . after all , it always guides one’s way when they’re lost . ”
❝ Does it have a name ? ❞ NEVER DID smile falter, naive gaze swiftly following the orb as it bounced about. Like a wisp, something she had heard in a story long ago, with such luminesce that she had never quite seen before in her short life. ❝ Really ? But I’m not lost, neither are the sweets. They’re in the kitchen. ❞
blightmantra.
‘ that it is, ’ fergus chuckles, allowing holly to droop the flowers over his head so that it looped around his neck. he made sure to adjust the necklace before giving her a scolding look, attempting to stifle the smile that so desperately wanted to seep through. ‘ you know the gardeners don’t like it when you go tearing at the flowers in the garden patch. did you make sure they didn’t see you this time? ’
❝ I hid in the shadows and in the gardens too ! I’m small, no one saw me. This time. ❞ MORE AFRAID of the look certain adults gave, though she did hold some guilt for rummaging through the gardens and destroying the work of others. But she wished to gift a handmade gift to her father. So, she had mustered all the skills of secrecy that she had learnt &&. snuck her way through the underbrush. ❝ I promise to fix my mistakes. ❞

his attention dropped at once from the work before him, and down instead to the small voice near his knees. the trebuchet could wait - there was a more important task at hand. ‘ of course ! you just stick with me. ’ a grin broke out across his face as he held a huge hand to her in offering. ‘ what d’you want to do, m’lady? we cooould … go to the stables n’ pat the horsies? or go raid the kitchens? - i could give you a piggy back there ! ’
SMILES OFTEN were contagious, for when the girl witnessed his grin, she could not help but return one. Any fear she felt before seemed to have vanished now that she had a guardian who could properly defend her, even more so when he brought suggestions of schemes and entertainment. ❝ Can we ride the horses too ? And raid the kitchens ! ❞ Here she happily takes his hand and swings their linked arms, jumping on the spot. ❝ Yes please ! ❞
CLASS: MAGE.
Holly is revealed to be a mage not long after her sixth birthday, which was rather much a surprise to her mother. While her magical abilities are rather limited, weak almost, and that she practically shows no signs or talents in any element, she does make it aware that she wishes to help people just as her mother and family do. At one point, when she is a little older, she beginnings teachings in controlling her new found talents and later wishes to become a healer.

“ of course ! you’re smart to know that now aren’t ya ? & it’ll be okay … we can always make more sweets , ” again , with the reassuring – it comes so easily for him to care & comfort someone like an older brother , or even a father if the inquisitor didn’t think that fatherhood was so out of reach . “ to say you’re sorry can be difficult for some people , sometimes its because they did a very bad thing & think they’re not allowed to be sorry . ”
❝ I don’t know how to make them. ❞ WORRY ADORNED little features, the thought of being lectured for her thieving behaviour sent a slight panic throughout her system. Maybe if she were to hide from certain people, she could avoid the punishment, but then there would be even more trouble than just pinching sweets. ❝ What kind of bad things ? ❞
sekilat.
“ but you know what you’ve done is bad , that makes you good , ” a hearty chuckle was let go as aetlus finds it adorable for the child to worry about stealing some sweets from the cooks . something he’s done too many times – but mostly because he was running off with food to feed some stray cat that he’s found . “ to be honest about your mistakes is something good people do , because often it meant that they’re sorry . ”
❝ But it’s bad to take what’s not yours, right ? ❞ THAT IS what she was told throughout her short life, yet now it merely made her confused on the lessons. Do no harm, take what is not yours, do not let bad people do bad things. Be the good person, try and help others. So many she had to remember. ❝ But what if I’m not sorry ? They were really good, but it’s bad to take and not ask first ... I’m in trouble now. ❞

“ there’s people who are good , ” children will stay naive , when they were allowed the chance even as the world falls apart around them . the inquisitor knows , he was a child who once wasn’t aware of how much the world hated people like him . like them both — life is difficult as an elf , no matter if you’ve spent it in an alienage , travelled the land or neither . “ & there’s going to be more good with young ‘uns like you , ye ? ”
❝ Like you ? You’re good too ! ❞ INQUISITOR, BRINGER of hope and beacon of good. Someone she believed would become a hero in one of the stories children like her read about. Though, when he said that she was good, she could not help but hold a rather guilty expression to her features. ❝ I can’t be good. I took treats from the kitchen and that’s bad ... ❞
❝ It hurts. ❞ POOR LITTLE finger, a minor injury present to it. A pout sat sadly upon the girl’s features as she held up her injury for the woman to see. A rule was to not pluck thorny flowers, otherwise situations such as these would appear, but would she listen when there were many beautiful flowers ? No. ❝ Can you fix it ? ❞ / @bloodyd
❝ In storybooks, the world is brave and good. ❞ NAIVE WAS she in the ways of the world, a childish view on all she met and heard of. People whose names often brought fear to adults, when all she could think is what kind of flower or frog they would like. ❝ Are people good too ? ❞ / @sekilat
❝ Do it again ! ❞ LAUGHTER ERUPTED from small form, giggles and smiles ever present as she witnessed his talents. Still young, untampered by the world and its views on those gifted with magic, Holly held such a curious nature towards it all. She had heard stories of people with magic, but rarely got to interact with anyone who could use it. ❝ Please, uncle Tae ? ❞ / @dlishmagi
HAVEN WAS a new place for her to explore, though she was fearful without her mother nearby. The Inquisitor had summoned her for a mission away from the newfound sanctuary, leaving the girl in the care of a Chantry Sister. But Holly held no trust in said person, she preferred to find someone she felt that could protect and entertain her. ❝ Ma told me to stay safe. ❞ maybe he could do a better job. ❝ Can I stay with you ? ❞ / @battlesworn
