[align=center][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px; width: 400px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt]Perhaps Alistair's first, real wake-up call to the harsh reality of life was the day he was sent to the monastery, sold to the Templars to join the army of holy warriors commanded by the Chantry, demanded to catch rogue mages and drink liquid magic in order to stop magic from touching him. Of course, drinking liquid magic and doing any actual rogue mage-catching did require him to have completed his training, though, yet even before the training, he had felt a bitterness, living in that monastery. He had been unhappy, and he'd thought it unfair that he'd been sent away simply because of his adopted father's wife's jealousy, and so had turned his adopted father away, believing it was all his fault.
But he had found safety in the training, and had been so, painfully close to taking his vows and receiving that first draught of liquid magic, of Lyrium, when he bitterly twisted his fate in a series of duels that lead to a Grey Warden rescuing him from his unhappy fate as a Templar. Becoming a Grey Warden had been a good choice, and he'd revelled in it, in fighting the Blight, in assisting kill the archdemon, even if it had brought about the death of his recruiter, Duncan, an almost second father to him, as well. Now, though, the Wardens had turned against him, and he was counted as a criminal for speaking out against illegal practises of magic, hunted down for Warden-Commander Clarel.
The leopard was safe in SunClan, though, or so he hoped, and he found he liked his temporary home. Like Steve, he was out at the border, though he was scouting for potential joiners, rather than enemies (even if they did linger at the back of his mind), and instead came across the canine; he slowed to a steady walk as Steve came into view, blinking hazel optics at him. " Oh, hello, " he greeted, voice awkward but friendly, and he managed a smile, nodding his head.
