I honestly think we don't appreciate enough how much this whole sequence says in terms of Sera's characterization

Right from the incredibly transparent "wrong kind of elf" phrasing and down to the "let's help him in a way that's consistent with his beliefs so he can live well, but also let him know that being threatened with being ostracized for literally being disabled it shit and offer help there too"

#also? this is a good look into her relationship with other believers when they are NOT directly connected to personal trauma #dalish religion gets her loud and hostile with denial 'cause it's a personal trigger and she immediately feels attacked #here? well she still does not respect it much clearly #but this is much more akin to a response you'd have to someone in a cult y'know #'here's what you need to thrive now - but if you ever want out here's also my number. it's not all there is. but your choice entirely'#which imo only underlines that the whole 'Sera wants you to deny your faith' debacle is entirely #about her fear of how that faith could be used to hurt her (and you. and you two together.)#and not the faith itself really
