Completely unharmed. Simply with his lips perhaps a bit better-kissed than before.

And who will be debasing my son?

A charming and beautiful young lady of my acquaintance who has never had the occasion to kiss a boy before.

And you came to me instead of my son?

Is there something wrong with that?

Ask my son. He is an adult by our measure, he can refuse or accept.

But I thought that a father was the keeper of his child's virtue.

Do you have designs on my son's virtue, that I am needed to protect it?

Would you protect it if I did?

Only in the most abstract sense.

What dreadful parenting. Simply shocking. I thought parents were to lock their children in cages to prevent them from any impure encounters. So will you make an introduction, then?

For his coming-of-age, I gave him a knife.

Introduce yourself. Formality is unnecessary. He will find your proposal amusing.

[ A heavy sigh. ]

But this way would have been so much more charming.

My son has far more charm than I. I think you will like him.

Don't be so cruel to yourself. I cannot think of anyone more charming than you.

Hold your opinion until you meet my son. As I said, he takes after his mother.

Ah. And she was a charmer, was she?

And beautiful.

Deceased, from the sounds of it?

Yes.

How long has it been?

Nearly the whole of Legolas' life.

Oh, poor orphan. How did he end up so like her, then?

Is one an orphan in Thedas with one parent living still?

I do not know. Perhaps it is blood telling.

One can be an orphan in Thedas with both parents living. It's a state of mind, dear fellow. But - my condolences.
