Summary
Imagine, Sylvanas thinks, how merciful my death would've been had a Lich Queen been chosen over a King. Jaina Proudmoore has no need of a Banshee. I would have been slain cleanly, as would all of Azeroth. Efficiently.
"A marriage of state," says Jaina. "A mutual surrender for a mutual victory."

Summary
"Caduceus walks as quickly as he can back home, and he thinks about flatmates who are at once too much and not enough. He thinks about arms, wrapped tight around his back, and about himself, a bedroom ghost, sitting in a room that’s not entirely his, and won’t ever be."
𓆱
In which Caduceus has started a textiles course, because he needed to get out of a house he hadn't left in years. Because.. he's not sure. He's trying to figure it out. It's a lot though, and friends are hard to come by.
Things change, though, when he meets Beauregard at the library and she offers him a room at the housing co-op she and her friends are setting up. There's connection there, but still... it's a lot. And, still, he's not sure what he's doing away from home at all.- Language:

Summary
Book One in the series dedicated to the histories of Lady Inquisitor Sinclair. Former Ostwick Mage Olivia comes from a life of disturbing secrets and devastating loss. Once the daughter of an up-and-coming Orlesian house, her abilities led to a life of ostracized irrelevance to both her nation and her family. Years later, tensions in Thedas between Mages and Andrastian Orders have come to a head. The perfect setting, it seems, for a corrupted Tevinter Magister to stake his claim of chaos. By virtue of rotten luck Olivia finds herself thrust in his path, imbuing her with magic beyond her imagination. Now, she must learn to balance her own hunger for justice with those of the world's most mistreated, as leader of the reborn Inquisition. Tense alliances become friendships and old friendships are tested. Will she concede to the reputation the world has defined for her, or will she forge her own, even if it means great sacrifice?
