    Summary

    Tarquin seeks change like a dog sniffs for scraps at the docks. Perhaps it's the familiarity of the path. From place to place, prize to prize, always trying to hunt down the end of it. Because there is an end, right? A city, a person, something. It wasn't Ventus, and it wasn't the military. It wasn't the Templar Order. The Shadow Dragons—now that's close. Names and faces and drinks to share and stories to laugh over. A man with a mask and many names and blue eyes, with a soft laugh and a sense of purpose so brightly burning he would've put Andraste herself to shame. And Tarquin feels that way, like a moth drawn to a flame. Can't get too close without getting burned.

    Then a couple of corrupt gods escape their prison, and the Sixth Blight begins, and suddenly there are worse things he could throw himself on than a walking conflagration of divine ambition. Tarquin closes his eyes, because the heat of a hearth feels the same as a pyre when you stand this close.

    A character study dressed up in the raiments of porn-with-plot following Tarquin as he realises he's stupid in love with his boss.

    "His flesh could be given true wings. And a face that better suits one who carries a demon."

    Lucanis said Ghilan'nain was welcome to try.

    She does.

    Summary

    A wedding musician and a mortician with an occupied casket enter a chantry during a snowstorm.

    An explosively nasty meet-ugly, a dead car battery, and a power outage later, they find themselves trapped together for the night.

    Will they be able to resist the allure of *shared body heat*? Or will they strangle each other first?

    Featuring a sassy and slightly bitchy Emmrich Volkarin and the impudent, antagonistic Maren Mercar.

    This is a completed work and will be 3 chapters total, updating every couple of days as I edit.

    Summary

    A year after the disbandment of the Inquisition, the Arlathvhen comes to the woods of Montsimmard.

    In exchange for removing the tattoos that are killing him, Fenris reluctantly agrees to protect Solas’s agents at the Dalish celebration — with Hawke by his side to help double-cross them in the end, of course.

    Merrill travels to the Arlathvhen to share the newfound truth of the Evanuris with her people, only to find them unwilling to listen to the pariah who caused the death of her Keeper.

    Though the festival is filled with reminders of his slaughtered clan, Nebel Lavellan attends to protect his people from Solas and stop them from learning the horrific history of their Creators.

    And a chance encounter between them all forces Nebel to face the truth of what it really means to love a former Ben-Hassrath.
