[He doesn't watch her go, losing himself in thoughts until she speaks again. There's not an easy answer to her question, and Anders frowns for a moment.]
Are you still hiding things from him that would impact how he does his job?
[Being a good leader means so much to Nate. Anders is therefore a little invested in this answer, though he'd never imply that she should be beaten for leaving something out.]
[She watches him for a moment, considering. Finally,]
I don't know.
[Her life sufficiently tangled in falsehoods that, at this point, Teren can't confidently give an answer to that. There are things she hides every waking moment of her life, and for all she knows, they might be useful to Nate.
But in a way, there's pride in that. She will always be her own, no matter what blood she drinks or to whom she reports. Giving a weary shrug of one shoulder, she turns and continues away. Anders can draw his own conclusion. It's the best she can do.]
[He'll have to take it. At least it doesn't seem like she's doing it to spite Nate anymore. He watches her go this time before his mouth overrides his brain.]
Please be careful around her.
[Anders doesn't trust Wren as far as he could throw Boots. Not like that's entirely uncommon when it comes to Templars, but she's in a special category for him.]
