"So you remember two lives?" Varric looked at me questioningly.

"Yea. I know that I am actually from Earth, not Thedas. Well at least one of me. I feel like I'm going insane." I take a drink, crinkling my nose. "God this shit is disgusting."

"Haha, don't I know!" Varric laughed heartily.

"There's one thing I didn't mention.." I trailed off, gazing past Varric at the dark wooden wall behind him.

"What could be worse then the fact that you aren't from our world?" He grinned reassuringly.

The sounds of the people in the small tavern laughing around me leaked into my now pointed ears. "This world in the other world... is um not real. It's a game. I also know everything that's going to happen.."

Varric laughed loudly gaining the attention of the tavern. "Oh! That's a good one!"

I stared at him until he realized I wasn't laughing. "Well it's obviously real. I mean I'm here," I reassured him.

"Don't tell anyone else that. I would also advise if you were going to tell anyone tell the elf. He may know something." Varric smiled softly as he took another drink. I returned the smile watching him.

"I never thought I'd get to meet you. Wow.." I looked around me, my mind being blown by the fact that I was really here. Thedas.. it is so much prettier in person.

"Yea. Don't say stuff like that. But hey thanks for the sentiment."

"I'm sorry. I just..." I sighed, running a hand through my hair. My breath pulled raggedly into my lungs.

"Yeah, kid."
