Geez, the daughter of a family friend cheated death. She had a burst appendix and it was only diagnosed after over 40 h. She had to have two emergency surgeries. 🫣

I think I've done that. Once. 🫣

Normal people: "Sleeping on the new slatted frame resulted in light to medium back pain."

Me: "After sleeping a night on the new slatted frame, my back questions the necessity of the switch and my general life choices. It'll have to get used to it."

So it was a problem for Krem to serve in the Tevinter military, but not for Tarquin? Make it make sense?

CW: Spoilers: Dragon Age, but especially Andraste and Mythal

She created a counter religion and led an Exalted March against the Tevinter Imperium in an attempt to keep the world from falling to the Blight.

We are approaching the one year anniversary of Dragon Age Veilguard so I think I'm going to squeeze in a playthrough soon. I miss my wife

I think I've never asked that question before.

Solas? What's with all the cheese in your music room?

It contains 23 cheese wheels.

Funny how a melody connected to heartbreak, that makes you cry on a regular basis, can also be a warm blanket, when you embrace the hurt. Yes, I am talking about Lost Elf theme from Dragon Age: Inquisition's Trespasser DLC again.

Still need a birth name and names for her parents, but I need a break. I used FenxShiral's wonderful works as reference.

When a tooltip says "You" on a companion item, do they mean the companion or the player character?

So, if the tooltip states

Your Critical Ability hits leech a portion of damage

Do they mean Emmrich's ability crits or my ability crits?
