Once the four of them had walked a good distance away from the house Ester paused and turned around to look at them. She knew speaking her mind would probably get her in trouble but she did so anyway. "I don't think we should collect the lyrium." She began, crossing her arms.<br/><br/>"But you said--" Tal began, but was cut off after the elf continued.<br/><br/>"I think we should go and<span style="font-style: italic">get</span>the lyrium and keep it for ourselves. After all, me and Valehna need it to keep our mana high. Those children are not benefiting from what the spirit is providing them." She finished, hoping that the children may tip the decision over into her favour.<br/><br/>She didn't trust the spirit at all, it clearly was doing the children more harm then good. She wasn't really sure how the four of them could save the little ones, they could barely keep themselves alive after all, but preventing them from living a lie was a good start.<br/><br/>Tal sighed, scratching the back of his head as he thought the whole thing over. The supplies would surely come in handy and the kids seemed to be fine living in their fantasy world. They were happy at least. His mind thought back to the illusion the old man had set up for them. He wondered what the others saw. Surely they didn't all see his workplace, that would be pointless.<br/><br/>"Did you guys-- What did you see back there? When he created that brief illusion?" The Qunari asked, wanting to know what the spirit knew about each of them.
