Varric as an unreliable narrator is a real mess.
Like... I sometimes see people commenting on how their Inquisitor had a certain expectation how Hawke would be based on Varric's story and I ask myself:
Which version?
The book he wrote?
The book he published after edits?
The story he told Cassandra on the fly?
Because the *book* - The Tale of the Champion - is very, very different from what he tells Cassandra (what we experience). And that could also be very, very different from the truth.
I admit that I also had my Inky pick a favourite from the "characters" in Varric's story. From the - very fictional - book, because Fen'Revas didn't get the Cassandra treatment of being told that "actual events" until later.
And it's Justice/Anders 💙
Which probably triggers Varric to say "Well, actually... What really happened was..."
Doesn't change his mind, tho...
