Sorry, I'm a nerd. This is a detail I need help with for a story.

Hawke is called both, yet I don't understand when to use serrah, or messer. Is there a reason why both are used? I've looked everywhere for the lore involved and can find nothing. Thanks for whoever can give me some help.

Both are gender-neutral forms of address used in the Free Marches.

"Serrah" is common usage, something you'd call an equal (or someone of lesser status). "Messere" is a term of respect.
