   Summary

   ***On a brief haitus<3***

   Amara Ivenci (Rook), youngest daughter of the corrupt governor of Treviso, has had her hand sold in a marriage contract to none other than the mysterious King of the Dead. She's forced to leave behind the city she loves and the life she's built for herself to wed Nevarra's nameless and faceless ruler.
   Just as she's starting to settle in her new home, the Fade crumbles. Demons slip through cracks in the Veil all across Thedas, only for the fissures to close within hours. When an old friend calls for aid, Rook ventures out with her disguised husband and skeleton butler in an effort to save Thedas from corrupted blight and vengeful gods.
