Summary
In Southern Thedas, before the events in Kirkwall brought about change, when a mage child's magic manifested the Templars forcibly took the young mage away to be locked in a Circle for the rest of their life. Much has been written about the effect this had on the mages, but what about the families who had their children ripped away from them?
The Chantry would have people believe they were all happy to do their duty to Andraste, handing their children over because the Chantry said it was necessary. As Bann, Emil and Jasia Trevelyan couldn't object when their son was taken, but Emil's personal journal tells a different story.Series
