Anders hesitates briefly, but even if this is a dream, his best bet might just be to play along until he wakes up. If there are demons in this dream, they will also eventually show themselves, by suggesting a deal at the very last. And it isn't like he actually has to worry about demonic possession anymore - there's only room for one extra passenger on this ride - so he actually does feel fairly safe. For now. Unless they end up trying to take his head off instead.
He nods, and then looks around (left, right, up, spotting the banqueting hall. There are enough chairs there, at least. "Over there?" he suggests, sounding almost calm now. The realisation of this place still hasn't hit.
He starts walking, half expecting Hawke to just magically keep up like people do in dreams, but still slowly his pace just enough to let him keep staring at him in disbelief. Now Hawke is next to him it's obvious that what's on his back is a staff, and not an oddly shaped greatsword. He almost wants to reach out and touch it.
"If we've really been brought here by some powerful magic," he says, sounding as if he doesn't believe that for a second. "Shouldn't we be fighting our way out?"
He can't quite wait until he's sitting down to start questioning Hawke on his logic. And it's easier to talk than to focus on the fact that yes, he's now walking horizontally and sideways compared to what he was a second previously. As long as he doesn't fall, he'll be happy. As long as thinking about it isn't what will finally make you fall.
