Angel hummed as she heard the question, leaning against the arm of the chair as she tried to work out what the tone meant in terms of the Divine's question. The question seemed simple enough, so far she'll bite. "I feel that, I owe Him my life.... Twice in actual fact.... For I think He made sure that I would be found at the doorstep of one of the Houses of his Followers, and to find a family with them... And then again, when Elthina bade me to leave her behind...." She paused at this with a heavy sigh, before continuing. "I believe He sets us down our paths for reasons only He knows.... And I ahve faith in Him, but some times I question the state of the paths he sets us down on...."
She stopped as she looked at Justina, not sure if she'd actually answered the question or misunderstood it. For with the older woman, nothing was ever that simple.

Justinia's smile persists. She doesn't seem to change anyway whatsoever. She nods."The Chantry believes the Maker has left us. Surely you've heard that?"
She continues. "How do you feel about it? Do you think it's true?"

Angel nodded slowly at this, "Indeed I have heard....." She replied to the first qustion.
Then the second question.....
Angel bit her lip a little as she heard the question as she pondered on how to phrase herself, "In all honesty.... I don't really know what to believe..... I feel that.... Although the Maker has left us, physically; I don't think it means he has entirely.... Broken away from us, but that he watches over us, gives us a..... 'Nudge', if you will, to help guide us...." She paused before looking up again, "That's how I feel anyway...." Her voice softened as she looked back down again.

"A warden, paramount even among his already gifted kin, arose in a time of deep darkness to end the blight with only one other Warden companion, and yet did it so before any other Grey Warden - With armies at their side from the start - managed to." She muses for a moment before continuing. "He has not left us, no, I feel it. He watches over us still, and that is why I know all will end well."
Her smile is ever comforting, as if telling Angel that there is no wrong answer to her questions. She proceeds.
"How do you feel about the mage's rebellion?"

Angel smiled as she listened to the short tale of the Warden, she always loved stories and hearing them from the Priests, almost as much as she loved to hear the Chant, almost.
Her smile fell a little at the words of the Mage Rebellion, "I.... I feel that, the fighting is wrong, I mean I understand that the Mages have to protect themselves but.... Why should we go against something that the Maker himself gave? Some of the Mages who I met in Kirkwall were just trying to help people as much as they could in the Gallows..." She sighed as she looked at Justina, "I'm hoping that this can be ended peacefully, not with more War..... We've seen enough fighting for a couple of lifetimes..." She finished her answer with that, not wanting to get too deep into things.

Justinia nods. "Magic is to serve man, and not rule over him. What do you think this phrase means?"

Angel sighed, "I don't believe those exact words...... Though I certainly do not think that Magic should not rule Man.... But necessarily to serve them either..." She started before explaining, "I think that Magic is meant to be used to help Man..... Magic is surely a Gift from the Maker, just as some of us are wiser than others, or are born with a Talent..... Why should we question the Gifts that Maker gives us?" She reasoned.

Justinia let out a pleased hum at those words. "You understand the Chantry better than our Lord Seeker, it would seem.
Magic exists to serve man - It was not worded such, man and not men, for no reason.
What was meant by that was not that mages should be confined or never allowed to rule - It was simply that mages were never to allow themselves to be ruled by their own magic.
Magic was made to serve man - To serve it's spellcaster - and not to rule over him - To take control, as blood magic and demonic-possessions do. The only true heresy of a mage is if he is a Maleficar or an Abomination.
And even then, there are exceptions, I hear."
Justinia seemed to be done with her little quiz. She smiled warmly at Angel.
"It makes me glad to see the world has young people as bright as you, lovely Angel. It gives this old woman both hope and vigor to keep up her fight."

Angel smiled as she listened to Justina's every word, taking it in and understanding her words before adding, "Yes i have heard about some Mages who could have been named as Abominations but were not, exactly, Abominations.... Wasn't there one with the Warden?" Angel asked, a little curious as one does.
Angel's smile brightened a little at Justina's words as she replied. "And I wish to help you with that, your Holiness.... With anything and everything that I can possibly do to assist, I will." She stated, completely honest and open as she always was with those who she came to care about.

"First, I need you to hold onto this." She says, producing another sealed letter to hand to the Sister. "Don't open it, though! Trust me. You will know when it's safe to see what's inside."
She smiles, nodding softly. "Second, I want you to pray for us all. And spread the Maker's word, so that one day the other Sisters of the Chantry may follow. He guides us still."

Angel delicately took the letter in her slightly dainty hands, "But until I know that day?" She asked as she looked at Justina, she wouldn't open the letter till such a point though it puzzled her of when exactly is safe enough to open something that was obviously important for the Divine to entrust it to two people.
Anegl nodded slowly, "I shall try... Though it is difficult to try and tell them such when many believe that He is truely gone....." She sighed a little at this, "But I will try.... Even if I snap my Bow into twine." She promised.
