Summary
When rock-legend Emmrich Volkarin of the Mourn Watch needs a fresh sound to be the opener in their revival tour, he spends weeks listening to demos and scouting potential bands. It is during a chance encounter in a dive bar that he finds the Veilguard– a nobody band with an alluring frontman that goes by Rook. With barely an album to their name, the Veilguard is hardly the established musicians Emmrich had in mind. But there is something about the Veilguard’s performance that captures his heart, perhaps in more ways than one.
To Rook, the offer to go on tour with the Mourn Watch is a dream come true– finally, the chance he and his friends have been waiting for, the chance to make a real career out of music and not eat so many instant ramen noodles. And if he happens to have a crush on the lead vocalist of the Mourn Watch, well, nobody needs to know.
A self-indulgent and in-no-way-accurate-to-the-music-industry fic about Emmrich and Rook. Set in a modern time, but with magic and qunari and dwarves and elves and everything. Enjoy!
