( Neria / Fenris )
He was, but as I said, I had an easier time than most. Where the Templars left me alone, they had a special disdain for Anders. I never really could figure out why. He was a healer. And yet they called him a maleficar. Anyone with sense knows a blood mage or an abomination can't heal. I conscripted him into the Wardens to save his life, because a particularly vicious female Templar wanted to kill him. And Rylock still nearly succeeded. Then, after Amaranthine, we suddenly had Templar Wardens. I knew that it was move on the part of the Templars to act against him, but I couldn't stop it. If I had done more, perhaps they would never have turned to such drastic action.
I do not think you ever truly knew Anders. Not as he was before.
