    Summary

    After the fall of the Evanuris and everything that happened with the Veilguard, Rook, Emmrich, and Lucanis are stepping into the unknown, trying to build something real, something that is truly theirs. The past lingers, and external pressures threaten to pull them apart, but together, they face the hardest question: How do we live with what's happened and keep moving forward?

    Summary

    Their resistance was starting to come together, she thought. She didn’t need an army or spies, even though it would be nice, what she needed was a network, and the people that had already saved Thedas once before were stepping up to help her save it again.

    ~

    She leaned her head against his chest, listening to the sound of his heart pounding beneath her cheek. She wanted to memorise the feeling, the sound, in case the mission went sideways. She hated herself for what she was about to ask him to do. “Ar isalan na to gara galin tor vis min goes telam.” I need you to get everyone out if this goes wrong.

    ~

    I really wanted to expand on the feeling of regrets and how Solas uses that to manipulate Rook into taking his place. The consequences of Rook's choices will be featured and explored. I intend to recount the game and fill in some gaps, reintroduce lore from the old games and add scenes I thought were missing, like breaks after major missions (HELLO, ROMANCED COMPANION DURING PRISON OF REGRETS). It's as lore-accurate as possible to the old games, but I have taken some liberties. Characters from old games will have bigger roles to play. Rated E for eventual smut.

    Summary

    This fic was inspired by the video game Wanderstop.

    Evara "Rook" Mercar, a former operative of the elite Shadow Dragons. Has walked away from a life built on blood, precision, and unrelenting usefulness. After a near-fatal mission and being forced into burnout recovery, Rook retreats to the remnants of her childhood—her late parents' tea shop, “The Veil & Vine,” long preserved by her estranged brother Solas.

    Now, a few years later, she is Rook Ingellvar who lives quietly in the city's magical district as a tea shop owner. There she meets Professor Emmrich Volkarin, a respected forensic anthropologist with a gift for corpse whispering and an all-time tea lover. He is invited to Minrathous as a guest lecturer.

    Summary

    After a chance encounter a year before Solas’s ritual, Rook did not imagine meeting her dance partner again, let alone him becoming a valuable member of her team. Now she must navigate saving the world and the excited feeling she gets anytime her Crow companion looks at her.

    Lucanis thought he finally went crazy as he stared at her -at the woman he thought about every waking hour he could between his escape plans. Lucanis also thought he could never fail a job. Now he must figure out his toughest contract yet, under the command of the most beautiful woman he has ever seen while sharing his body with a demon she can apparently hear too.

    Summary

    The years had been hard but wonderful in equal measure. Countless battles and the ever-present danger of being one of Sister Leliana's closest were balanced with friendship, with the common cause of fighting for something larger than themselves. Finally, after years of simply drifting, she felt useful. Like she had a true purpose.

    The disbanding of the Inquisition felt like a rug pulled from under her feet. Like being pushed unexpectedly from the highest cliff. Leliana was named Divine Victoria. Sidhlairiel was free to seek new ventures.

    Sidhlairiel "Rook" Lavellan has struggled to find her place in Thedas since the disbanding of the Inquisition. Perhaps that's why she doesn't feel daunted at the idea of running off to Tevinter when a familiar face appears at her door

    Summary

    In a freak twist of fate, after killing Ghilan’nain and unleashing a lethal amount of magic, Rook does not find herself in the Prison of Regrets. Instead, the magic creates a pseudo-rift and spits her out the other side.

    Stuck in the past, she has several options but only one real conclusion: the Inquisition had done fine the first time. They certainly didn’t need her assistance. The fate of the Veil still hung in the balance, and she had vowed to keep it there by any means necessary. Solas had been helpful up to this point, but she’d known he was plotting—scheming to escape his prison.

    He had used blood magic on her. He’d hurt Varric. He’d cheerfully kill her given half a chance. This younger version hasn’t done anything yet… and doesn’t know to be wary of her. Rook wasn’t above using him, and then killing him with his back turned.

    What was the Dalish saying? May the Dread Wolf take you? Not if Rook took him first.

    Summary

    By the time Elgar’nan is dead, Rook is the last of the Veilguard standing. Solas succeeds in killing him, damning the world, but Rook succeeds in killing Solas, too.

    The world is going to end, but at least Rook’s taking the Dreadwolf out with him. If not for the fact that his lungs were filling with blood, he’d laugh.

    And then, Rook wakes up (mostly) alive 12 years in the past. He’s not sure how yet, but this is probably Solas’s fault.

    Summary

    For being such a ruthless assassin, you certainly have a light touch." Rook murmured, tilting his head aside as a silent invitation for Lucanis to take, if he so wished.

    This was the bait.

    And Lucanis was the unfortunate prey that had been caught long before the trap was sprung.

    Summary

    Noura De Riva is the ideal Crow underdog — fighting her way through a difficult upbringing and a cruel Cuchillo house to be a high-ranking Assassin in House De Riva. However, this is made complicated when she screws up a major operation with the Antaam and ends up on a whirlwind adventure to save Thedas as “Rook.” On top of everything, her feelings for a certain handsome necromancer force her to confront her own emotions, her past, her present, her desires, and what role she wants to play in the life she has.

    Generally canon-compliant longfic that I’m mostly just writing because it’s fun for meeeeee

    Summary

    AU of Emmrich Volkarin - university professor with years of experience in morgue as forensic pathologist. University, to make "real science" more accessible for more people opened few years back an introductory course. A bit of biology, chemistry, history of criminology... Something to give people the taste if they want to continue.

    Siggin Laidir, late as a fashion dictates, 25 years of untamed adhd, deciced to take this course. It doesn't make sense if he majors in dancing and art history and his past-time is making reels for social media, right?
    Right.

    Then why he smiles the way that makes Emmrich feel something for the first time since the divorce?

    Summary

    Lucanis Dellamorte has been the captain of the Crows’ failing ice hockey team for the last sixteen years, and has yet to achieve his dreams: of winning the Cup; of honoring the organization that took a chance on him; and of coming out as his queer, authentic self in a world designed to hate him for it.
