Alden's jaw turned slack.
When she was younger, the Keeper of the End had loved Alistair…?
'W-what?'
For the second time in as many minutes, Alden felt overwhelmed with shock. The Keeper was bombarding him with revelation after revelation that stunned him. He wasn't sure if his heart could keep up. Shaking his head, the young man tried to stop the surprise from showing on his face.
Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain as Morrigan's sad smile deepened.
"It was just a one-sided crush. Alistair wasn't like the other boys. He was- is a good man. Elara is lucky to have him. They make a good match."
She sighed a little wistfully, her wrinkles deepening as if to reflect her emotional state.
Then, before he could pry any further the Keeper changed the subject.
"Are you aware of how this world was created?"
Alden blinked at the unexpected question.
"No."
Morrigan smiled knowingly.
