"i dont want to ruin you." beldur said as he looked up at her and smiled back at her "and im not fretting. im just musing. i dont want the happiness gone from you. your happy enough for the both of us vin" he said shaking his head slightly. when he laughed it was cold and almost emotionless and his voice deep for an elf and blunt. his eyes constantly sad or angry but he was never violent unless he had to be. the village was now at peace and in the few long moments before the dawn beldur looked happy "i like the sunrise. it puts the past behind it with such ease." in camps he didnt sleep much he kept an eye out for anything that could harm him and the recruits. while he wasnt a good leader he protected the people who followed him often shaking his head in quiet laughter as vin sometimes stayed up with him "besides. im not letting you fight becuase your horrible with instructions. how many times have i told you to sleep and you have not done so?" he winked to her a little knowing it made her happy. and it was one more thing he had to preserve he thought. seeing her as the shell he is now would have saddened him once again but he made himself smile once more. "we will stay here for a few days and rebuild the village. the chantry in denerim will be sending some more templars. you will watch over them and make sure they are doing their job. i will be with the chantry elder and the village elder about having some food sent to us. she insists on paying for our help. now once more. go get some sleep we have a big and busy day ahead of us" he spoke as he went back into the building and fell asleep. dreaming of the wars he has seen in the past year dint give him comfort but it iorned out his will to succeed this time once again
