I'm obsessed with purple hawke's relationship to god. that scene when you side with the mages and talk to bethany, and she's finally reached the certainty that she is as the maker made her and that it must be good, she must be good, because the maker is good. and her older sibling is just standing there hollow-eyed and haunted like 'oh. I was just thinking that god is not only indifferent to human life and suffering but actively, deliberately cruel and malicious and that all of creation is nothing more than a stage stained with an eternity of blood and grief where we act out our tragedies and tear each other apart for His entertainment. actually. but maybe you're right. who's to say'

#god does play dice with the universe and he'd sell us out quicker than uncle gamlen did the estate.#like bethany I am so happy for you and you are so right. but these two are at very different points emotionally at that stage fhdskjfhsa #dragon age #hawke #dragon age 2 #something about the 'don't know whether to laugh or cry' religious despair of it all hits different lol #I do think purple hawke brings up the maker more than any of the other personalities #but mostly as the setup for a joke. or a glimpse into their harrowing existential crisis. they are the same thing for hawke
