    Set during the events of DAI. Two women. One, a noble human who believes she is destined for greatness. The other, an elf who doesn't think she's anything more than a weapon. Both thrown into the Fade, both cast into the path of a danger greater than they could imagine. Both are needed to defeat a foe that is seemingly unbeatable.

    Summary

    "My eyes don't feel wet but they feel raw. Four hours is enough for my voice to crack, usually, except it doesn't. The same way my fingers are not sore enough to bleed.

    They should be."

    Abigale Walker died.

    Abigale is under the firm impression that she should have stayed dead.

    Abigale is wrong.

    Summary

    Casey Wainwright lost her best friend and childhood love years ago. He didn't die or anything--he just became a real prick.

    When she arrives in Skyhold to repair the crumbling fortress on behalf of the only people bothering to fix the damn hole in the sky, she is not pleased to find that the last person she ever wished to see again is now the Commander of the Inquisition. And he's not exactly happy to see her either. But the contract has been signed and the two must work together until the world ends or demons stop dropping on their heads.

    Alliances will be forged, truces will be declared, embarassing childhood stories will be shared...and Cullen Rutherford will learn that the road to regain all he has lost will not be an easy one. Not if Casey can help it.

    Summary

    Aislin Lavellan was set to become the next First in her family, after her father before her. She was strong-willed, confident... a gracious leader, and fit the role of Herald of Andraste perfectly. She would make the perfect figurehead to the newly formed Inquisition.

    Too bad the Mark of the Rift, and the Dread Wolf, took her rebellious twin sister Mellan along for the ride.

    A "What If?" fic based on the premise: "What if there were two Lavellans, with one being the ideal 'Bioware Protag' and the other being the opposite?"

    Summary

    A scouting mission to the ruins of Haven brings a wash of wounded refugees to Skyhold. Ness is not a healer, but she'd rather the Inquisition twist her skill with alchemy into that than push any further into her past.

    Summary

    Othain is many things - a powerful mage, a hedge witch, recent traveling companion to the elvhen apostate Solas - but he is wholly unprepared for the events that take place at the Temple of Sacred ashes. How could he be, when he himself only recently fled the Brecilian Forest for the first time in over a decade?
    Now he's thrown into the mix of events that shall shake the very foundations of the world from which he has been hidden away, alongside a careless, thoughtless, reckless and (admittedly) charismatic warrior.

    He's certain this isn't what he signed up for when Solas asked him to attend the Conclave.

    Summary

    In those moments of darkness, we found one another...

    When the Conclave between the mages and the Templars is called, Bann Ferdinand of Ostwick sends his eldest son to represent the family, and Ostwick, at these talks. But when they hear of a tragedy of untold proportions unfolding in its midst, his daughter, Lady Amelie Hargrove, sets out to Ferelden to bring her brother home – dead or alive. When she arrives at Haven, she finds herself in a new world, one so different from her quaint life in Ostwick, and where the machinations of Corypheus, and her developing affections towards the Inquisition's commander, threaten to change her life, her family, and her world, forever.

    Summary

    The objective is to return home.

    Back to Earth, to normality, to neon signs and smog, to a world entirely united in its indifference. Japan or America, wherever, as long as it's REALITY.

    Nothing else matters.

    (In which a Modern Girl in Thedas ends up being turned Tranquil, a fact which bothers her not at all.)

    Summary

      When she loses her life in a freak accident, the last thing Elizabeth expects is for the very thing who seized her life to offer a second chance at it. Driven by the anger over her sudden demise and the whispered words of a Pride spurned by the fiend’s arrogant nature, she accepts the bargain.
     Next thing she knows, she’s hurled down to a world that shouldn’t exist outside her young years fondest memories.
      But there’s no time to question her arrival or marvel at the wonders of the magic filled realm; the sky is falling apart, Corypheus’s threat looms on the horizon, and she has an Inquisition to infiltrate. Armed with the foreknowledge of the events to unfold, a switchblade and a half-baked plan, Elizabeth hops on her horse and heads to Haven.
     Between unexpected collateral effects of her arrival, a world set to Nightmare difficulty and the harsh reality the Advisors are way less friendly when you’re not the world’s savior, Elizabeth is sure of two things:
    1: Ferelden should use salt;
    2:Solas is a territory she will not trespass. She will not.

    “All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.” ― Edgar Allan Poe

    Summary

    There is more to him than she expects. What with his drawn face, the soft academic cadence of his voice. But perhaps it is just so, the staff he wields so heavy and solid, that he would have a warrior’s body. The soft rounding curves of his muscles, the hard, imposing line of his form. He is slick with sweat now, as though he’s exerted himself. The hearth at his side illuminates him only in pieces. His back, the round of his shoulders, the long incline of his neck. But beyond him, there is another fire, the one that first drew her here, that she had seen from under the space beneath the door, reflectant across the tall pines beyond the wall. It does not move as fire moves, undulating, curling around the air. And it is pale, almost greenish. Unearthly as it falls over his profile.
    She should go. She has lingered in the rafters too long. But she cannot. It is as if he has her in thrall. He turns, just slightly, just the barest incline of his head. And though his eyes are still cast in shadow, she can feel his gaze upon her.

    -or-

    Girl meets boy. Boy is secretly an ancient god with armageddon on the brain.
