Oh! Andaran atish’an! This is such an interesting way to talk to people, don't you think? I can see your face and you can see mine! It's like a mirror, but it reflects other people back at you.
[Merrill waves, smiling broadly, her large eyes sparkling with delight.]
My name is Merrill, and I'm looking for my friends. I appear to be a little lost. [She swings the tablet around too fast to really see anything useful. Just a lot of stone.] Did you see that? I'm lost. But I have friends who can help me become, ah, not lost.
Sometimes, when I was lost in Kirkwall, Isabela - she's one of my friends - would swoop down from the top of a building and tell me where to go. She's very pretty, with dark hair and a lovely blue bandana. Oh, and a necklace. It's quite hard to miss her necklace and what's below it. And there's Aveline, but sometimes I worry she doesn't like me. She has red hair, like the sun, and quite a lot of freckles. I like her freckles. I wish I had freckles... [Merrill trails off, tapping her fingers against her cheeks as if counting freckles. She comes back to herself suddenly.] I'm sorry, I tend to get lost in my thoughts. I think that's how I ended up here. Do you ever do that? You start thinking and then you just don't come out. What was I saying before?
Oh, yes, my friends! I have quite a few of them. Isabela and Aveline and Varric! Varric is a dwarf, and he's very funny, but his stories aren't always true. He tells me stories about pirates, but Isabela says they're mostly made up. And Fenris, he's elvhen, like me, but--that's not going to be trouble, is it? In Kirkwall, they make us live in alienages, and they're very dirty. I had a nice house, but it was very small. No one in Thedas seems to like the elvhen very much, and living in the alienage is very uncomfortable...
[She stares past the tablet screen for a moment, thoughtful.] I hope there aren't any alienages here...
If you know my friends, would you tell them I'm looking for them? Ma serannas for your troubles. Or, if you recognize this place-- [She ducks out of the frame, an alleyway filling the screen for a few seconds before she fumbles the tablet and then drops it. Merrill's face pops into the frame again, a worried expression on it.] Oh, dear, I hope I haven't broken you...
[ooc: Feel free to engage the very lost Merrill in actiony posts. As a Dalish elf, she tends to speak in the elvhen language frequently. You can hover over the text with your mouse to get a translation!]

Varric was always at the Hanged Man, and we would go there often for drinks. There were always strange people there, and they would pinch Isabela, so she would attack them, and then there would be blood everywhere. Aveline would give the owner coins - I don't think she thought I saw - and Hawke would calm everyone down.
Sometimes, we went to Hawke's estate in Hightown. The humans there were very nice. Once, someone had their dog chase me! It was a fun game, but the man wasn't very happy when I outran his dog.

[And...she pinches the bridge of her nose.] "Fun," right. [She has to ask:] Do you need a chaperone, by any chance? Someone to keep an eye on you.
video;
Varric and Hawke do a good job keeping an eye on me, and Anders, too, though he won't admit it. He gets mad that I don't wear shoes. Must be a human thing.
