-- know not how this device operates or what means that it broadcasts information... though, I have heard voices come through. I can only pray that this message is heard and whatever means I had to relay it has come to the ears of those that may help me.

My name is Sebastian Vael. I am a Brother in Faith at the Chantry. If you know not know what it is, that is ... fine, for the message I have is not one of the Maker but one of my own ... concern.

I wonder if memories are fluid when we arrive to this world. Can they change and alter as greatly as the tides do? I ask this for there are ... discrepancies between myself and another who is from my world, who I know. I must know if this is a common occurrence... and if it is... what can be done to return my memories to what they should be.

... I will accept that burden, regardless of what it will mean. To live in a lie, though a happy one, is unacceptable and the work of demons, at best.

Please, tell me that the message was --

I'm afraid that I'm not following you, Aveline. Hawke is neither male nor a mage. I recall her sister being one, though.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

Bethany died before we ever got to Kirkwall, Sebastian. Someone's replaced your memory with lies.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

No. I cannot allow that to be true... but the alternate is -- I will seek out the one that has caused these disturbances and return us all to how we should be. I feel that is what Hawke would do if she were here.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

Hawke is certainly the nosy type, but I'm still not getting where you're coming from with all this.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

... the Hawke that I know is a woman and my wife. As such, I feel it is my duty to find out what I can about our memories together.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

Your wife? Even if Hawke were somehow to be female and not a mage, he doesn't seem like your type.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

I believe in this particular situation... looks can be deceiving.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

So in whatever weird reality you claim to be from, are you not a Chantry Brother?

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

I find that to be a bit harsh... [ He says in surprising good humor, odd given the topic, but somehow he does find it. ]

I am. I remained a Brother in Faith, and Hawke became a Sister. Our marriage is a chaste one.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

[That's...How is that marriage?]

That never struck me as Hawke's thing, but clearly you know a different...side to Hawke.

[The female side.]

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

I suppose so.

I am sorry that you could not have known that side of her.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

It sounds like the kind of thing best kept between the two of you.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

I suppose that you would know, being married yourself... or did that change, too?

[Voice]

[canandhave]

No, I was still Wesley's wife, and now Donnic's.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

I see.

I'm glad that is still a truth.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

Just because your memory seems misplaced doesn't mean mine is.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

My memory is just fine.

[Voice]

[canandhave]

Regardless of how you want to phrase it, you're remembering things that didn't happen.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

So, can I count on your assist in finding out what is true?

[Voice]

[canandhave]

I already know what's true, but if Hawke shows up here we can ask him, and if not work with others, sure.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

But surely you are curious about the source of this disturbance...

[Voice]

[canandhave]

From what I've heard we've been in...'stasis' for over a hundred years. I'm not sure we can find out anything.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

... For so long? That sort of magic...

[Voice]

[canandhave]

That's what I've been told. I don't know if it's true or not.

[Voice]

[ex_placates75]

So there is still hope.
