Fenris didn't take much notice of it consciously, but the smell was slightly calming, as at least his subconscious wouldn't associate it with any ill intent.

"I see. If it is, I wouldn't know that. Still, even though Thedas - that is the land I come from - is all that the people of Thedas know, they acknowledge that there are other lands. Qunari had come from another place, after all, if we are to believe historians."

Seems to consider something for a moment.

"This could be useful information for both of us. I hope you're not offended if I assume you also plan on leaving this place as soon as you're able. Tell me: who lives in your land, apart from humans? Have you ever heard of the Qun?"

The fact that she is human, or mostly human, and so, humans must live in that place seems obvious, so Fenris doesn't even consider not making that assumption.
