I've always wrestled with the things that Anders claims about the Grey Wardens after his departure from them. So I've finally decided to write out what happened between Inara and Anders before Anders made his deal with Justice and fled from the Fereldan Grey Wardens. This fic will explain why Anders' trust in Inara breaks. Why he feels he can't reach out to her once he reaches Kirkwall. Why he speaks of her with some anger.
