    Summary

    There were still a few fires burning here and there. Still handfuls of civilians being guided to healers and places to stay other than the ruins of their homes, murmuring to each other as they moved. Still Venatori and demons lurking in the darker corners, waiting to be flushed out.

    But as Tarquin stared out a window, watching rain splatter against the balcony of one of the still-standing Shadow Dragon safehouses, he couldn’t hear any of it.

    Just the rain, his own soft breathing, and the voice of a Warden behind him.

    “Breathe in.” She murmured. Tarquin’s own chest lifted, but he didn’t turn to see if her patient had listened like he was supposed to. “Hold it, just like that.”

    -

    Post-Elgar'nan's defeat, after nearly losing each other, Tarquin and Ashur's relationship changes; they find their footing together in the aftermath.

    Summary

    They ignored the looks Fenris drew. It was nothing they were unfamiliar with, and they assumed that the Templar Order took its vows seriously, no matter how remote or roughshod the chapter. These men were soldiers of the Divine. Hawke would have trusted his captors with his life.
    Then things began to take a darker turn.

    Summary

    Sometimes the smallest choices can change everything.
    Varric’s decision to hire a blood mage to stop Solas was one of them.

    This is the story of a Rook who isn’t quite what anyone expected. Morally gray and socially awkward, she has little interest in making friends. Enter an Antivan Crow, suspicious of her from the start, and suddenly her plans begin to unravel, threatening more than just her secrecy.

    This is also the story of Lucanis Dellamorte, an assassin turned abomination, the last thing he wants is to work alongside the very kind of mage he once hunted. Enter his personal bane, who’s somehow the most tolerant person he’s ever known, and now he isn’t so sure if he should trust his instincts or his morals.

    “You know,” she said, voice low as she raised her hand to gently brush the ridge of the dagger. “I don’t normally use other people's blood in my spells, but I do use my own. So if you’re ever going to try and kill me—” her fingers drifted to skim the blade’s edge, just shy of drawing blood, and Lucanis pulled back with a grunt. “—make sure to do it in one clean move. Or otherwise, without blood involved.”
