Summary
The air had the bite of a coming winter, and the fallen leaves were thick with the dew of a melting frost as she hung still and patient in the branches of a tree, a rope harness tied around her waist, hips, and thighs tethering her to the trunk in two places, feet on a branch, her bow held easily in one hand, an arrow nocked and held in the arrow rest, ready to draw.
As the codex entry says, Lavellan became a hunter at a young age, growing into a respected protector and provider.
It had been the journey of years, as her Huntmaster had told her, she felt strong, centered, confident, and all the peace and confidence in her skill as a mature hunter and in herself had been put into her vallaslin.

Summary
A short story about my tabris, dealing with the last day/night before the final battle in the game; he's dealing with like a lot of anxiety and guilt over both rejecting Morrigan's offer, and also like what will he see in Denerim. I've got no creativity when it comes to names, so that's why his name is Darian. This lack of creativity when it comes to names will be an issue throughout my work lol.
Dead bodies are described, in a way that I don't think is too graphic, but also I'm not too sure to be honest, so I thought I'd give this warning -- if you're unable to deal with the depictions of death by the blight in the games, then maybe this is not for you to read? Dead bodies aren't described too frequently, but it's present.
Also apparently AO3 doesn't like tabs when it comes to formatting, or I don't know how to add them, so apologies for the formatting...
Also, if you have any feedback (particularly with the tags or like if it did need a warning), PLEASE let me know.

Kylara's Origins (A Dragon Age Origins retelling... with my own little twists!) by JCHB322
Fandoms: Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age (Video Games), Dragon Age - All Media Types
20 May 2024
Tags
Summary
Welcome! This is my first FanFic. Based on one of my Dragon Age: Origins characters, Kylara, Human Mage, and her adventures as a Grey Warden in the land of Ferelden. It starts off similar to the original game, but past Chapter 3 things start branching off. A few changes I have made: my character already knows Wynne, as she was Kylara’s former teacher in the Circle Tower. Another change is that I moved the Golem Shale from Honnleath to a town of my own creation in the mountains northwest of Rainesfere. Since fast travel is available in the game, but not in the story, I had to make it more plausible to be able to recruit Shale without having to travel days south, away from all other points in the game. I also used horses and carriages where I thought they would fit into the lore. Mage spells, when written out, are in Scottish Gaelic (long spells already translated) Some characters have had some personality tweaks… A lot of things will not be canon, but I hope you will like it all the same. There is Mature Content. FEATURING ART by some amazing creators, and SCREENSHOTS from my special 10th Anniversary YouTube Playthrough. It can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRrhwAvf-ZXjGkciiod5Mmx0u3UDJXuAL

The Ballad of the Queen of Ferelden by Torn_to_be_born_again

Summary
A novelization of my favorite playthrough with many liberties taken with the source material. This is my first posted work so be gentle :).
The youngest Cousland child had an ulterior function to fill within the Kings court, a protector of the prince that none would suspect. Enemies would evade guards and soldiers, even other noble and royal men. But who would suspect a young Teyrna withing the young prince's inner circle of being a threat to all who wished the boy harm? The Divine traditionally had a left hand, why not the heir to the Ferelden throne. Cirilla Cousland was once the shadow of Ferelden's throne until she was released from her service three years ago. Now a blight threatens the wilds of Ferelden's south.

Summary
Duncan was the most influential person in Alistair's life and it pains him that Ellery does not view him with the same awe and respect that Alistair does. It also makes him worry that if they can't see eye to eye on that, how are they supposed to see eye to eye on anything else?

Summary
A Warden's path takes many forms, but the destination is always the same. We descend into the deep, to the roads that even our Dwarven brethren have long abandoned. When my Calling came, I was relieved, truth be told. I am responsible for many things. Perhaps in death I could find forgiveness.
Why is it then that I was found at Adamant Fortress with no memory of how I arrived there? How is it that the Calling that plagued me for so long has simply vanished? I was ready to die, to atone. How do I live, knowing I will have to face it all over again?

Summary
Elissa reached the monster first, causing Alistair to halt in his tracks. She ran the weapon along the monster’s tall neck, making it rain blood and gore. The head of the monster fell to the ground, still rumbling and spewing out blue flame. Before he could reach her, she screamed out, lifting the sword and plunged it deep into the dragon’s head, sending a shockwave that sent everyone sprawling to the ground, darkspawn and human both.
Alistair's POV, the night before and after the beast is slain. The Final Onslaught.

A Long Awaited Crescendo by zelarain

Summary
For all that they were once again sleeping beneath canvas in the freezing Ferelden spring, Zevran had never been happier in his life. Which of course had the result of making his stomach curl with dread every time he caught himself smiling. If his time at the Val Royeaux Ballet Company had taught him anything, it was this: nothing so wonderful that it made his heart soar could last for long.
A continuation of my Dalish mage origin mod playthrough fic. Zevran was a ballerino while undercover for the Crows (and delightfully good at it), so dance plays a role throughout. Not a standalone - reading the prior parts is strongly recommended. This Part is complete.
This arc is now completed! The story continues!

Summary
"It is I, the Great Zevran, assaulter of forts and rescuer of wayward wardens, at your service," he said, voice filled with bravado as he took a flourishing bow. His ankles were crossed, his arms swept wide. But the cocky grin on his face did not reach his eyes. Those glittered as if he were still in the killing mood.
Wherein the Dalish mage warden learns about resilience, and Zevran Arainai applies pointy things to bad men and wicked creatures.
Completed arc, but the full story updates in parts. A continuation of my Dalish mage origin playthrough. For background and context, I do recommend reading the whole series in order. Manages to bemostly cannon.
