Summary
This is the sequel to More of a Rook than a Crow, which in turn is technically a sequel to Dragon Age the Veilguard. This means major spoilers for Veilguard!
Thedas is saved, which means that Isabella can return to the fold as Lucanis begins his new work as well. However, with a strange letter addressed to her at Villa Dellamorte, she is asked to discuss something that Viago was hoping to sweep under the rug.
The King of Antiva has learned that Rook was a Crow, and Rook has been summoned for an audience with the King. Only, Isabella hasn't gone by that name for several months and very few people knew who Rook really was. Is it a trap, or does the King really just want to extend his personal thanks to her for saving the world?
And when cloaked figures appear to pave the path for those from across the sea, it seems that Isabella might need to get the Veilguard back together to find out exactly what is going on.

Summary
Their resistance was starting to come together, she thought. She didn’t need an army or spies, even though it would be nice, what she needed was a network, and the people that had already saved Thedas once before were stepping up to help her save it again.
~
She leaned her head against his chest, listening to the sound of his heart pounding beneath her cheek. She wanted to memorise the feeling, the sound, in case the mission went sideways. She hated herself for what she was about to ask him to do. “Ar isalan na to gara galin tor vis min goes telam.” I need you to get everyone out if this goes wrong.
~
I really wanted to expand on the feeling of regrets and how Solas uses that to manipulate Rook into taking his place. The consequences of Rook's choices will be featured and explored. I intend to recount the game and fill in some gaps, reintroduce lore from the old games and add scenes I thought were missing, like breaks after major missions (HELLO, ROMANCED COMPANION DURING PRISON OF REGRETS). It's as lore-accurate as possible to the old games, but I have taken some liberties. Characters from old games will have bigger roles to play. Rated E for eventual smut.

Summary
It should be a quick, clean job. Get in, get what he needs, get out, move on. But then, Lucanis should be in Treviso, not riding a crowded Minrathous rail line towards the inner city. On several fronts, things are off plan.
Lucanis works alone (except when he doesn't). Rook isn't supposed to be working at all (except she kinda is). Teaming up would be ridiculous. Crazy. It's not going to happen.
(It's happening.)

Summary
Lucanis breezed past her. For half a second, she thought he was going to sit next to her, but instead he began descending the stairs.
Just stay, she thought, unprompted, and it prickled her flesh with goosebumps.
He stopped a few stairs lower than she sat, as if she had said that traitorous thought aloud, but she knew she hadn’t with how tightly her lips were pressed together again.
Looking up, surprised, she watched him turn and lean a hip against the railing against the circular wall, leaving them at roughly eye level. He folded his arms tightly around his chest as he so often did.
She was oddly glad he’d given her that space. And even more relieved he hadn’t left.In the aftermath of the decision to save Treviso over her home, Rook has difficulty facing the team, especially Lucanis. When he stumbles across her having a physical reaction to the day, they talk, and his unexpected kindness makes her cross a line.

Summary
What a disaster. Like with all things that Lace and Varric had found themselves in over the past several years, this was going about as horribly as one could expect.
“Harding, do you think there will ever be a time when we don’t end up in a place where there is trouble?” Varric asked as they followed.
“I think if that moment happens, it’s because the trouble finally won,” Lace replied. “Would ya rather be in Kirkwall doing viscount duties instead, Viscount Tethras?”
“In Kirkwall, yes,” Varric deadpanned. “As for the Viscount duties, ehh, not so much. I like this Warden, though. She might fit the bill.”
-----
During an eventful night fighting darkspawn, Warden Lilja Thorne is recruited by none other than Varric Tethras and Scout Lace Harding. Dismissed by the First Warden for not following orders, Warden Thorne joins her fellow dwarves in their search for a friend, Solas, a trickster elven god trying to end the world. When their search finally reaches its assumed end, the ritual they are trying to stop turns into a whole new set of problems and Lilja Thorne is left to build a team and save the world.

Summary
Nora thought she and Solas were going to restore Elvhenan and ride off into the sunset. Instead, she wound up in the Ossuary—imprisoned, experimented on, and turned into a demon factory.
Now she’s loose with terrifying new abilities she barely understands, a Blight spreading like wildfire, and a pair of elvhen gods dead set on world domination. Add in some unfinished Inquisition baggage, and her plate’s more than full.
Good thing she’s made some new friends.
If only they didn’t think she was the enemy.

Summary
Constance de Riva’s self-control hangs by a thread, and Illario Dellamorte knows it.
Sister to Viago de Riva and one of the King of Antiva’s rare bastard children to choose the Crows over exile, Constance is haunted by her mother’s execution, and the watchful eye of the crown’s Adjudicator ever since. A mage with a perilous connection to blood magic, she intrigues Illario as much as she vexes him, and he finds himself irresistibly drawn to her. But just as he begins to slip through her defenses, Constance is forced out of Treviso on a punitive contract for foiling a Crow operation, despite her best intentions. In her absence, Illario is consumed by an obsession with blood magic, falling deeper and deeper into inescapable regret and Venatori corruption.
A year later, Constance returns seeking the aid of the Crows’ best assassin, Illario's cousin Lucanis, long presumed dead. When she discovers him very much alive, everything Illario thought he’d come to terms with is upended, and he must desperately try and right his wrongs while bending her loyalty, and power, to his side.
If only feelings, and conscience, didn’t keep getting in the way.

Summary
Davrin and Rook get off spectacularly on the wrong foot. He doesn't trust her and tries to take her to Weisshaupt, which does not go over well. With the griffons missing, and an ongoing crisis threatening all of Thedas, they’ll have to find a way to put their differences - and similarities - aside and work together. It won’t be easy, but perhaps with time, they can learn to tolerate each other, maybe more than they had planned.

Summary
Description:
It's been a year since the fall of the last elven gods Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain, since Solas willingly sealed himself in the Fade to protect the Veil.Between the Final Blight, the incursion of the Antaam, and the fall of no less than three sovereign nations and (possibly) two religions, the team have their work cut out for them, as they now must help rebuild Thedas from the ground up.
In the midst of all this, Atash Laidir - better known as 'Rook', protege of Varric Tethras and leader of the intrepid team - makes a monumental discovery:
She's pregnant.
Atash and Emmrich now find themselves facing a terrifying question:
How can you bring new life into the world, when that world is still in pieces?
A long-form, post-DATV fic about rebuilding a broken world and wingin' it.
There will be:
1) babies
2) general angst
3) (some) Origins-era horror
4) (a lot of) DA2-era snark
5) sprinklings of Inquisition politicking (and Dorian)
6) lots of character cameos from previous games (are they cameos if they play a significant role in the story, though..?)
7) tooth rotting fluff in between the grimdark bits
