Summary
Convincing Lucanis to let Rook decide if he's worth her trouble is tricky business, but Teia has an idea. (My take on the cut gondola ride and hot springs.)
Target: Deryn “Rook” Aldwir
Lucanis Dellamorte is hereby charged to deliver unto the aforementioned target the “little death,” il piccolo morte, in a manner of her choosing, at his earliest convenience.
(But with the world trying to end, you might wish to hurry.)

Tranquil Age by Windborn

Summary
Most Thedosian technology is powered by magic and enchantments, requiring both harvesting power from mages and stationing Tranquil throughout the world to maintain stability and function.
Wardens have long served as bodyguards and surveillance for leaders of various nations, a fail-safe against abuses of power. But there is something different stirring in the Ferelden wilds, something harkening back to an earlier age, when Wardens were . . . more.
Ferelden is in chaos after repeated southern rebellions have exploded into outright civil war. Like other loyal nobles, the Couslands send their troops to bolster King Cailan's forces, leaving themselves open to betrayal much closer at hand. Blindsided by Howe's treachery, Elissa's family fights to escape their home-turned-deathtrap, while avoiding the disturbing new ammunition employed by Howe's soldiers.
Fade charge makes the Tranquil crazy . . .

Summary
'Her eyes snapped open. For a moment, she was blind, mind so full of white snow and red blood and dull, empty blue she couldn't see what was in front of her. Even as the dream-haze lifted, it left in its wake only darkness.
Another shake, gentler than the one that freed her from darkspawn clutches. "Eliss - Commander?" Dim red light limned the angles of a face, pulled a profile from the surrounding night. Glowing coals from the supper fire sketched torso, arms, hands, holding her upright.
Shame burned in her gut, a few butterflies wending through it, at being caught in her fear. "N-Nathaniel."'
