Summary
Across the outpost, Fenris looked up and locked eyes with Hawke.
There was nothing. No flicker of recognition, no hesitation. Hawke stood there in shock, reeling.
It felt as if the elf had reached into his chest and crushed his heart.
Hawke had wanted to end Danarius from the first night Fenris sat in the abandoned manor and spoke of what had been done to him over a bottle of Agregio. Even when they weren’t talking, when everything between them was painful and unsaid, Hawke would have done anything to protect the elf.
He never got the chance, and of all his failures in Kirkwall, it was Fenris who hurt the most. There had been no closure, no finality - just an awful absence at his side.
Until the Inquisition, and the Venatori. Until the Warden Tower in the Approach, where they come face to face again. Except Fenris isn’t Fenris any more. He’s Danarius’ Little Wolf, and he’s entirely on the Venatori side.
