"Everyone seemed rather surprised. Especially the Inquisitor... especially you."
Bull touched Dorian's face, remembering vividly the anger, the hurt the mage had expressed the moment Bull revealed his hand. He remembered the coldness, too, but he could not blame Dorian for that.
"I know that you don't remember what I do, but I want you to know how torn I felt in that moment." The truth was flooding out, and Bull could not stop it. He touched Dorian now because he had not been able to in those memories, not really. "I had suspicions that the Triumvirate had not approved the Viddasala's full mission... but it was too late. You knew it, and I did. I was a dead man either way."
Bull frowned, then leaned close to touch his forehead to Dorian's. He closed his eye.
"You were the only one that could do it, kadan. I am sorry for that, too."
