[ Guess who's back? Back again?? Etc., etc. ]

Hello, my fellow... cheerful... captives. After about a month of having no-bloody-idea who any of you lot are, I'm happy to report that Confusion's put me right, and so my memories have come back. Lots of gratitude there, obviously. It's an absolute nightmare to not remember how to do anything, in case you've never experienced it before.

So... yes. Memories are back, many thanks to Confusion, and I never did get to comment on our new home, did I? Listen - [ The Inquisitor shuffles a bit, the video skewing somewhat sideways. ] I've been here... over two years, and this is the first time we've had an actual sun. Comes with the whole leaving-the-caves situation, obviously, and while I'm glad for a bit of a change -

[ What was her point? Cecily pauses, then exhales roughly. ]

I've lost where I was going with that, so I'll just ask: what's edible and what isn't? More specifically, what here won't turn you into a maniac when you consume it?

He loves being on the surface again, there's so many new things to sniff! But I've gotta watch him so he doesn't dehydrate.

You want to go out with our pups when it's a little cooler? He'd love the exercise.

[closerift]

Exactly. Pup is well-behaved, thanks to Cullen, but I worry about the heat.

[ Dogs can't be in extreme heat, right? Or... is it just that none of them should really be out in this weather? ]

Yes, I'd like that. You are still staying with us, aren't you? We can meet outside of the house beforehand.

[paragonbrosca]

Yep, I sure am! That works for me, so I'll see you then.

[ When Aren gets back, Cecily is standing just outside, Pup rolling around on the ground nearby. ]

Nice to see you again. And to know who you are. [ She chuckles, shaking her head. ] I've never lost my memories like that before: it was utterly disorienting, as you might imagine. Hope it doesn't happen again soon. Or ever.

[Barkspawn goes over to lick Cecily's hand before immediately wrestling with Pup afterward.]

So, in case of memory loss, find Confusion? They didn't want anything in exchange?

[She's not going to bother to hide her wariness from Cecily, who of all people here can understand why beings called Rage, Fear and what not have her thinking of them as Thedas demons.]

[ Cecily chuckles low at the dog before wiping it on her trousers and turning to Aren. ]

Apparently. I'm damn lucky she agreed to it in the first place. [ It could have been much more difficult for the Inquisitor, otherwise. ] Actually, no, she didn't want anything, which surprised me. Confusion said I've been providing her with power since I came back, so I s'pose she owed me a bit.

[ And now they're even, she thinks. ]

[paragonbrosca]

[She wrinkles her nose at that.]

Creepy...but if it works, it works. I'm still going to take a lesson from this and try not to die, though. It sounds really annoying.

[closerift]

Having died twice now, I can confirm that it is, in fact, 'really annoying.'

[ Both had been awful, but to then come back without her memories? Insult to injury. ]
