Warden: “Would you love me if I were a worm??? 🥺”

Sten: *exasperated sigh* “……Yes Kadan, I’d love you if you were a worm.”

StenxWarden ; she was kadan, where the heart lies.

Seheron was a strange place, filled with strangers whom looked at her funny, although she did not blame them.

She was a dwarf amidst the kossith, a bas interacting with the qun.

But she was kadan, where the heart lies. So she accompanied him anyway, the scents of Seheron wafting around her, sea and incense.

Everything was unusual to her, even with Sten's assistance before they arrived.

Exclaiming "By the Stone!" in the streets when you first arrive in docks filled with Qunari is not a good first impression. Sten said nothing, did not smile, although his eyes betrayed his slight amusement. She was nothing but embarrassed.

She eventually began to understand, being educated and learning. Slowly, but she was. She learned to speak some Qunlat, and ceased using dwarven expletives in public, although when she was around just Sten, she did.

"Kadan, you are learning this faster than I expected, considering your outburst when we first arrived."

She took this as a compliment, having a small smile grace her face.

"Should I take that as a compliment?"

"Take it however you wish; it is an observation."

Despite letters asking her to come back to court and take up the Warden-Commander position again, she refused. Politely.

The Arishok died as she was to leave for Ferelden. Seheron was locked in mourning, or as much as the Qunari mourn. No one walked the streets, whether kossith or elves or viddathari. Sten seemed lost, meditating and separating himself from her. She attempted to comfort him, although her methods were futile. He appeared to appreciate them, one of his rare smiles was seen until he began deep meditation of the qun once more.

Eventually she left Seheron, unwillingly, as Alistair had threatened to come take her from there himself. Sten escorted her to the ports, where she stood on a crate to kiss him gently.

She left, and Sten watched her ship intently until it disappeared beyond the horizon, touching his lips gently and curiously.

"Dwarves have such strange methods of showing affection." he muttered under his breath, a ghost of a smile on his face.
