"You're too kind." Anders wondered if Altair would think that about him if he knew what he'd done in Kirkwall. Altair bore no love for the Chantry, but how would he feel if he knew that Anders had destroyed the one in Kirkwall and killed their Grand Cleric, along with a handful of sisters, mothers and Templars?

A lot of people blamed Anders for the current situation. Some of the Loyalist mages had even blamed him for the fact that they now had to live as fugitives. Yet, the war didn't officially start until almost a year after the Kirkwall rebellion.

He allowed Altair to pull him aside and fell silent. He soon heard it too. He resisted the urge to peek from around the trees to see if it was Templars or not. He didn't sense the taint, so they weren't Grey Wardens, anyway.
