Yes.

[gently, but agreeing with the thought.]

Perhaps it would have been possible to wait and find another solution. I don't think we'll ever know the answer.

Right. We can't know how things would go any other way...

... What do you think? [ that's vague. probably she means something closer to 'how are you feeling' but feelings are hard. ]

[she understands, but feelings are hard. she's trying. I think...]

I felt sorry for her. Her freedom meant so much to her. She was suffering greatly, I think.

I find it easy enough to trust that Gale and Astarion knew what she needed. It may not be what everyone else here needed, but it's what she needed.

[ that does help. logic can't outweigh the emotions completely, obviously, but ashlyn really does prefer for things to at least Make Sense in a very particular way.

and that makes sense. ]

... It's more important that she got what she needed than what the rest of us want for her.

I think so, too. And I think, with the letters, with these wishes, all is not necessarily lost.

Her wish is forfeit, though.

Is it? I don't know anything about that.

Going to that other dimension cuts you off from the monster. But it also cuts you off from the wish if you haven't made it yet.

Ah. I did know that, but I suppose I assumed she'd have used it.

I guess she might have.

I do understand waiting. I've been waiting to use mine, too. But I suppose I always assumed that at least if my life was at risk, I'd do it.

Do you know what you'll wish for?

...I'm going to do something about Delilah. So she doesn't come back.

Is there a reason to wait, for that wish?

I suppose not. Other than being a bit nervous - I want to do it right. I don't want to waste it, and she returns anyway.

Well... It's good that you at least know how you want to use it. But I wouldn't wait too long.

There are so few of us left.

...Yes. [she frowns, nervous.] I know. I need to use it before I run out of chances.

You shouldn't have to rush. But... people don't only die on Thursday nights. So just be careful. Be ready.

...Yes. You're right. I don't want to lose my chance because I was afraid.
