Thought she desperately wanted to engage him and try to pull him along for more, Lana was careful during their continued travels as they headed north.  She used her magic to calm his mind as he rested, but she slept a good few feet from him each night that they camped.  She wished to give him the time he needed to work through his past and his present, without having to worry about any feelings they might have for each other.<br/><br/>After three days, they finally reached the small town that sat on the edge of Sulcher's Pass.   The sun had already set behind the high mountains around them, but gave of a little light yet.  As they approached the town, Lana took note of a cloaked figure making his way toward them.  The man seemed to slight to be a Templar, bulky armor would slow clearly beneath the cloak.  She did not reach out or say anything to Ellion, surely he was alert enough that he would notice the figure as well.<br/><br/>As the man neared them, he suddenly rushed toward Lana.  She was about to focus her magic through the walking staff she carried, when he man pulled his cloak back and revealed who he was.<br/><br/>"Thane!" Lana exclaimed as the man pulled her up into an embrace and swung her around.  He was a tall man, about ten years her senior, with dark hair that had started to get flecks of silver in it.  Despite the cloak, he had a very refined air to him.   He swung her in two circles and then deposited her back to the ground, smiling down at her.<br/><br/>"How did you find me?"  She asked.<br/><br/>Thane gestured to the necklace she wore.  A teal colored stone seemed to pulse for a moment against her chest.<br/><br/>"I saw that you left Redcliffe a few days ago and I assumed you were successful in your mission to report what you'd found.  I thought you might like a hand from a visiting diplomat...But I see they already provided you with a chaperone..."  Thane replied, glancing at Ellion.<br/><br/>"Ellion, this is Thane Thalrassian, a magister of Tevinter."  Lana was still figuring out the politics of Tevinter, but she knew enough to know that the Thalrassian clan held a good amount of sway within their home country.  Thane considered himself to be a rebel of a sort, but she felt he was a very benevolent rebel.<br/><br/>"This is Ellion."  Lana finished her introduction and the nod Thane offered provided evidence that Lana had spoken of the man next to her before.<br/><br/>Thane offered a sudden bow and confirmed it.  "It is my pleasure.  Lana has told me much about her time in the Tower..."
