It was coming. She would die. She expected her life to flash before her eyes, but it didn't. Nothing happened. She simply saw Vereor coming in with the blade, and that was it. She couldn't help it. She closed her eyes the last second, but she felt nothing. Nothing! Was this what death felt like? It was incredibly underwhelming. She opened her eyes and was greeted with an angry Vereor.
"I.."
She was promptly raised off the ground, her eyes wide. Her armor clanked loudly as he vigorously shook her. His words resounded within her mind and her face quickly contorted in sadness. Within seconds, she burst into tears. It was completely and utterly uncharacteristic. Tears flowed down her cheeks and she appeared as a small child. Once he set her back on the ground, she sniffed and wiped her eyes.
"You..you wanted to kill me..."
She looked up at him, obviously upset.
"I..I really like you and you.."
She sniffed and gasped, barely able to speak while choking back tears.
"..You just wanted to kill me. I was going to make it easier."
There was no doubt that this abrupt change in demeanor would be enough to floor Vereor. Andraste was completely and utterly blinded from her destiny and the massive amounts of power she possessed. For now, she was a simple, frail young girl way in over her head. She finally quieted her sobs, wiping her sleeve on her face.
"I'm...sorry. That just made me sad. I will p-pay attention now.."
