Cullen, Lavellan, and Mabari

"Riku, what do you mean your hc with the mabari?"

Well, more like symbolism but the crux is why Cullen is so symbolically a mabari in so many accounts. Yes mabari are very much Fereldan but their uses within human society, as creatures of war. They are symbols of status and guarding humans from everyone, including elves, ie City elf origins. To use intelligent creatures as means to harm others? I get the feeling that many Fereldan city and dalish elves have strained opinions on mabari because of how often they are used on them. The association to mabari and wolves does not help either, a reminder of dear ol' Dread Wolf. All things considered, I don't doubt there is an instinctive fear of mabari, but here's the thing- Medea, my Lavellan, absolutely doesn't. Her father, a former Fereldan city elf, tried to warn her of the mabari even though there really is none in Kirkwall. But when Medea finally meets one as a child?

She loves them. She finds them adorable

And cute. She loves animals, how can she hate one that is so extremely intelligent and loyal? But when she grew older and became an apostate, it wasn't uncommon to encounter a few, led by Kirkwall Templars, that went hunting for apostates, brought over from Fereldan. So she begins to have complicated feelings with mabari

She does not blame what they are, but they are a reminder of who she is and what life she now lives as a runaway apostate. It's not their fault they were bred and raised for the nobility, chained to a life of loyalty to the wrong person. So Medea still loves and cherish the mabari even when they bite and snap because she knows they can be better with the right person. They deserve kindness and freedom from a constant life of hurt.

Do you see what I'm doing? DO YOU SEE THE PARALLELS AND DOTS CONNECTING-
