Summary
Afterwards Solas feels light and unbound, in disarray, lying cocooned under the covers with Felassan, both of them overflowing with bashful smiles. It seems so warm and safe. And so when Felassan passes a hand through his hair and whispers softly to him, somehow he finds all his secrets spilling out of him into the gentle twilight that has come over the room.

Summary
Felassan wanted Solas from the very instant that he laid eyes upon him.
The general was - delicious. There was no other word for it. He stood on the dais in the training yard, delivering orders to the assembled officers, and his thighs shone like the sun in that beautiful golden armour. Felassan's eyes locked on the curve of those thighs and would not let go.
***
Felassan and Solas started a rebellion together, and then Solas left Felassan behind. Felassan waits for him. But the centuries pass, and Solas doesn't wake, and Felassan can't hold on to his love alone.

Summary
A spirit is called from the world that dreams into the world that wakes. He is given the name Solas, and then he is told to forget he ever was a spirit at all. He grows up as the son of a washerwoman, a servant of Mythal the All-Mother, and knows no life but the life of the incarnated. Until his brother is kidnapped by Andruil, on the hunt for fresh blood to feed her Champion's vile experiments. Solas attempts to petition Mythal for his brother's release, but is offered an alternative instead: work for the Mother of the Evanuris, rise through the ranks, and gain enough power to free his brother himself. But unknown to him, and to the other Evanuris, history is being nudged (or perhaps shoved), and Solas will soon find himself in the position to change the course of Elvhenan forever.
Note as of 31/10/2024: This fic does not follow Veilguard’s established backstory for Solas, as it was drafted and outlined (but not written) much earlier than the game’s release.

Summary
After nearly three hundred years of elven independence, 2:09 Glory saw the attack on Red Crossing ignite the mounting tensions between the Dirthavaren and the Chantry, resulting in an Exalted March against the Dales that would shake the foundations of Thedas for centuries to come.
Perhaps, though, history can be re-written, if a rebel and a knight can wake the Dread Wolf six hundred years ahead of schedule.

Ellana does not go quietly into the night. Having survived the horrors inflicted on her by humans, she navigates the Inquisition with resolve and cunning. Unwilling to compromise who she is—a Dalish elf—she finds herself pulled by powers both within and beyond herself.

In her pursuit of immortality and a desire to live with her beloved in peace, she seeks to shatter the Veil—with or without his aid.

Summary
Mihir's Keeper tells her fireflies are unafraid of the burn of their lanterns because they steal from the licks of light to scare off pests and perils of the night. She's never felt their kin, prone to shadows as she is. She prefers the comforts of the Fade. She met the Dread Wolf there.
He taught her all she knows about the world before leaving one day, without a word. His return, now, comes with an ask: to help him retrieve a magical relic he calls the orb. Mihir, forever starved for approval, agrees without a moment's consideration.
Her Keeper, unaware of the relationship Mihir built with the Dread Wolf in the Fade, sends Firra, her soon to-be husband, with them as safeguard.
They wend through woods familiar to Firra, unfamiliar to her. The journey forces revelations Mihir has never wanted to face regarding her own nature. Still, she perseveres in hopes that she may return to her clan as the First they deserve.

Summary
When Hope finds themselves twisted from their purpose, it is not the light of the sun that saves her; rather, it is the kindness of a stranger, and the hope that burns eternal which pulls her from the brink.
What follows is a look behind the curtain into the largest historical event the world has ever known, that will become muddied and muddled into the legends that praise the victors, and leave the very fabric of existence changed irrevocably.

Summary
'Mythal will ask herself, someday, as he will kneel for her not in blind devotion but in exhausted loyalty, face bare and eyes sharp and brow furrowed, how he had ever been that soft. She will ask herself, in thousands of years, when the echo of his unbloodied fingers tracing the curves of her in pious prayer has become nothing but a memory, if sharpening him to the keenest of blades truly had been worth the loss of such purity.'
Mythal is plagued with a horrible migraine. Solas decides to show his devotion in more ways than one.

Summary
"Here lay the world in ruins, littered with the remains of once mighty armies and terrible cities. Brought to its knees by the Dread Wolf. The Dread Wolf, who was all pride and no wisdom, all guilt and no atonement. "
---
Inquisitor Lavellan saved the world, lost the world, then saved it again - loved and lost, loved and lost. Cruel joke upon cruel joke piled atop each other under the disguise of destiny and fate, until the curtains fell on him and Solas with their blades piercing the other's heart. It was a disgustingly poetic end.
And because his luck was rotten, he wakes at the moment before it all began.
A second chance or a second doom? Lavellan wasn't sure which he preferred.
---
"Uncover the past, little raven, the Wolf is not the liar here. Those who walk the shadows never leave."

Summary
Ellana narrows her eyes. “How could you possibly know that?”
Solas stills, midway through chewing his mouthful of Seheron spicy noodles. “It was… uh, revealed to me in a dream,” he says sheepishly.Ellana Lavellan has learned not to ask too much of life. That is until a series of strange events makes her question everything she thought she knew about the world.
What’s with the bizarre documents she finds at work? Who is the neighbour leaving increasingly passive-aggressive notes on her door? And, most importantly, did ancient elves really build the Nevarran pyramids?The answer to all this, and more, is found in this modern AU, imagining Solas as an elfroot-smoking conspiracy theorist eager to tell Lavellan all about ancient elves, Pink Floyd, and the Fade.

in all my dreams before my helpless sight by virshiral

Summary
They had never kissed before, so perhaps the moment should have felt strange, unexpected. But it was so gradual and tentative and soft that it felt like just a continuation of the way they held each other. Their mouths brushing in the darkness, then brushing again, and then tipping over into something else; breath mingling, skin sliding over shadowed skin. Felassan's mouth was warm and smoky and his hand stroked along Solas' jaw, his fingers trembling. It was blurred and yielding and shatteringly gentle, and Solas wanted to weep, but he could not because he was not supposed to be afraid.
Afterwards, they didn't speak of it. Nothing changed; and yet everything did.
(Solas x Felassan, set in an AU Thedas in a period roughly equivalent to WW1)

Summary
All monumental stories have varied beginnings, like so many intersectional points on the roots of a great tree, but this one in particular began the moment he realized he might actually care about her; a Dalish elf named Da'lah Lavellan, who the shemlens called the 'Herald of Andraste'.
