"Now come on, would I lie about that? Of course she did."

"So we head down to Dumat Plaza, on the tail of Neve Gallus. She was a detective, specialized in finding people, and we had a someone to find. Of course, it can never be easy; just as we were setting off, the sky starting pouring down demons. Can you imagine? Total chaos in the street, people screaming everywhere, and you won't believe it, but the Archon's palace wasn't any help at all."
Did the high and mighty ever really stoop to helping to common man? Not as such, not in Varric's opinion. Everybody wants a piece of the pie after all, and the bigger your pockets the larger your slice. Who cares what's left for the little people, right?
But we get by.
"We caught up to Neve at the Plaza, just as promised, and she led along to where she'd last heard our man had been hiding, far outside the city— Damn, if you can believe it, he was all the way out in Arlathan forest! And when we got there, what we saw put the mess back in the city to shame."
