You'll have to tell me more about it. [ Later perhaps. If she felt up to it.
He gives the curiosity of her's another grin moving on as she asks her questions to set up more of their camp. ]
Spirits and demons represent the virtues and vices of people. Sloth, envy, Desire, Compassion, hope, faith.
Spirits are more benevolent but don't take much interest in people but demons are as you said; malicious. They seek to cross the veil, possess people so that they can be apart of our world. When that happens it's never a good thing.
However, spirits and demons are very similar. A spirit can become a demon if it's denied it's original purpose or one expects to be a demon.
[ There's a small pause as she asks that question. Now...that would be a difficult question to answer, Solas was far more an expert on Spirits and demons than he. But, he had picked up enough to say something on the subject. ]
Theoretically, yes. If a spirit is twisted against it's purpose with a binding and turned into a demon it can be restored to normal if the bindings are disrupted.
Otherwise, it's hard to say. They're affected by us in the physical world as well and our emotions so unless we all had pure and good thoughts no spirit could be corrupted. Alas, people are not that simple.
I'm almost finished. [This whole time, she's been working on them, on sealing off the exits, though she seems to be able to come and go between them freely.
After some time, she enters the chamber again.] I would like to believe that there is nothing that is truly beyond redemption like that.

She's quiet for a moment, thinking.] Is it possible for it to go the other way?
Can a demon be redeemed?

But that's only a demon that was turned from a spirit. An entity that starts life as a demon is doomed to be evil for its entire existence, I take it.
That's quite sad.

If demons didn't exist, well, perhaps people would believe mages were not so dangerous.

How are the wards doing?
