If Fergus had walked away and left Nathaniel to his misery, Nathaniel would not have blamed him. Even Fergus had limits to what he would and would not permit in the name of love. Nathaniel always felt one such limit was the subject of his father. And now faced with a very real reminder of the...

Nathaniel’s nose easily could have lead the way to the fishy feasting but it was Fergus that guided them to the fish cart. He noted with a question, "The fish it is. Is there another smell that interests you once we finish raiding this one?" Mischief sparked within grey eyes, the urge to lean...

“Your duty led to the conscription of two templars. The right of conscription is absolute, but that does not mean that it has no consequences. Threatening to evict templars from Amaranthine and conscript detained apostates also has consequences. Part of those consequences are that you would not...

“You’re really going to turn this back on me?” What was good enough for Nathaniel was quite good enough for Mara in his mind. A corner of his ghosted upward as he waited on what came next. "Alright, let's talk about me.” Mara added. “I’ve every right to this anger, Nathaniel. You may have...

"It seems you've done the same.” Unmoving stone, Fergus made no movements toward the staggering Nathaniel. Then tension in his features threatened to snap, a harshness of tone Nathaniel was not used to hearing from Fergus powering his questions, "What the void are you even doing? Why keep...

"As you say, Henry!” Fergus kept with the ruse, doing his best impersonation of an Antivan accent. "I'm sure these people would be kind enough to direct us to the market. We are looking for your best food vendor, at least the best one that does not serve sugary delights.” A grin bloomed upon...

“My health is well, although I could stand to get more sleep,” Breanna replied. "Rainesfere certainly has been more active in the past few months.” Nathaniel had to admit he knew relatively little about Rainesfere. That area of Ferelden was not one he had ever visited nor did he feel especially...

I nominate All I Wanna Do is Have Some Fun because it is just fun and I'm ready for some 'Nice Boots' jokes. I nominate Those Left Behind because that's no easy bit of information to share with Niamh and it is making for a great read. I nominate Caught Between a Rock and Another Rock because...

The gentle pat of Delilah’s hand was enough reveal Delilah’s answer to Nathaniel before she could speak it. “I can’t, Nathaniel. As much as James might love that, he would drive everyone mad with questions.” Her seat abandoned, Delilah rose to her full height to take Nathaniel’s hand in hers...

"Might 'splain it," Niamh conceded to Nathaniel’s point. "Right after such close fightin'. Both having the fears of normal folk 'an the poison churning in our blood." Fatigue pulled at the posture Niamh appeared determined to steel, "Ain't nothin',” her gaze panned down to her injured hand...

“Does anything ever work out for you?” Mara asked, unable to pass up a good scab to pick upon. “You missed the point, Nathaniel - loneliness isn’t just about love or whatever you had with Fiona, it’s about being around people who get what’s fucked up about us. You wouldn’t want to lose that...

“They are,” Cauthrien responded plainly. “I can handle them. Take her home, Nathaniel.” Home. Vigil’s Keep was filled with ghosts. Each walk about the Vigil brought a resurgence of recollections, both good and bad. There were the places he played as a boy with Thomas and Delilah. There were...

“And I am the King of Ferelden.” Check but not quite checkmate. “And when two powerful and autonomous organizations are having a pissing match on my front lawn, I cannot afford to be seen just wringing my hands and asking everyone to play nice.” With a sigh, Alistair sank further into his...

“You are not your father,” Cauthrien said, “and you are not to blame for her death. She was killed in a robbery that had nothing to do with who you are or who she was. Setting her aside would not have protected her from this.” Words. Nothing Cauthrien said was false, but neither did Nathaniel...

The spiral set its claws within Nathaniel, tugging him further and further down into the morass incrimination. And he did not resist. He welcomed the pain, the condemnation, the judgement. Nathaniel let out a deep breath and peered through a dark fan of his undone hair at the painting before...

A dusting of laughter escaped Niamh’s lips. "I ain't gonna say nuthin' 'bout that. 'Cept that Asha might try to get me arse outta bed fast-like so as to toughen me up." Niamh had an excellent point there. Velanna was certainly one to push rather than coddle. She would not put Niamh in any...

“Duty. You keep talking about that, but is that really what’s holding you back?” Mara paused, taking a moment to consider her words. “I mean, you’re so attached to it. I just...I don’t exactly know what you mean. The only thing binding you to the Wardens is the Taint.” A flicker of a frown...

This character would be for a post-Trespasser timeline as she is still a child during DAO/DA2 time periods. Character Name: Eunice Howe Gender: Female Race: Human Age: Born Solace 12, 9:24 Personality: This is up to the individual. Eunice, as a child, was stubborn and quite willful. How...

“How lovely.” Alistair was as thrilled as Nathaniel to hear of upcoming visit. “I’ll make sure that Ingram has a fruit basket for them.” A crack in the overly formal veneer, Nathaniel was unable to stifle a snort as he imagined their warden visitors’ reactions to such a welcoming gift. Would...

Nathaniel's demands went ignored. Cauthrien spoke the very word he bade her not. “The only duty you have right now is to her.” Without asking, she plucked the whiskey bottle from Nathaniel's grasp before he could stop her. His hand thrust out to reclaim his prized whiskey only to slash through...
