    Summary

    This series takes place in my mage world state, and will contain stories about my Inquisitor Loryen Trevelyan (with the exception of "I'll Be Good" - see notes -), mostly from 9:37 Dragon to Trespasser and beyond.

    The title of this series is a line from a beautiful poem, Typewriter Series #2518, by Tyler Knott Gregson. If you want to see the full poem, which is such a great description of my Inquisitor's outlook on life, you can find it here.

     

    See Series Notes below for a breakdown of the projects it comprises.

    Summary

    The Circle burns, every Grey Warden in Orlais is hearing the Calling, and the youngest Trevelyan takes on a responsibility that the Hero of Ferelden didn't have enough time to see through to the end.

    Ysara is a former Circle mage, welcomed into the ranks of the Inquisition by her elder sister during the mage-Templar war. With her newfound freedom, she willingly takes on the almost impossible task of attempting to find a cure for the Taint, which causes almost all Grey Wardens to meet a premature end as they begin to hear the Calling. Most of her life having been spent in the Circle means she has to learn how to navigate a lot of new things for the first time, for which senior Grey Warden Alistair is more than happy to help with.

    Summary

    9:25 Dragon

    Years before he became the Hero of Ferelden, Aedan Cousland competes in the Tantervale Grand Tourney melee final against a surprising opponent: fierce, sharp-witted, and unmistakably talented Marie Trevelyan of Ostwick. And he can’t help but feel a little bit smitten when she clobbers him. Lucky for him, there's a banquet afterward.
    ****
    “I want a square victory,” she says, settling into her heels. “You had best not hold back, Cousland.”
    “Now why would I do a thing like that?” he answers, grinning behind his bevor.
    “Some misplaced sense of chivalry perhaps?” she counters, eyes twinkling like serpentstone gems.
    “In this case, I believe the chivalrous thing to do is to make you work for it,” he says, flipping down his visor just as the yellow flag falls.

    Summary

    Theo Trevelyan swore he was through saving the world, and intended to retire to Ostwick to mope, while his husband, Dorian Pavus, cultivated a new life as a Magister in the Tevinter capital of Minrathous. When a Titan stirs in the deep below the Storm Coast, and the Old Gods begin whispering in the darkness of Minrathous's streets, Theo and Dorian must overcome the hurt from the past, and work together to uncover the threat lurking in Tevinter's shadows.

    But Theo and Dorian are involved, which means nothing can be simple...

    Summary

     
    "Yet everything that touches us, me and you, takes us together like a violin's bow, which draws one voice out of two separate strings." -Rainer Maria Rilke-

    Welcome to my version of a mage Trevelyan/Cullen pairing. This story will be based mostly during the events of the Inquisition, without touching too much on in-game quests and as such, it will not quite be a literal retelling of the game story line.

    Expect a generous sprinkling of world-building, in particular the Ostwick Circle, and a cast of well-developed characters.

    Told from the POV of my Inquisitor Loryen, a musician whose soft and kind nature is at odds with the demands of the Inquisition, and of our beloved Commander Cullen - without a doubt my favorite DA character to write - who discovers he doesn't have to punish himself forever for the errors of his past.

     

    PLEASE NOTE THAT AS OF 2025, THIS FIC IS NOT ABANDONED, JUST PAUSED. Currently revising the already written but not yet published chapters, in the hope I came resume updates more regularly soon.

     

    As always, thank you to anyone reading this! It's a labour of love! <3

    Summary

    Cam Trevelyan was born cursed. A templar initiate with magic who wears a sister's dress does not make a favorite first child. The solution? Tranquility. Magic, however, does not rest so easily. Freed and given power unlike anything she has ever known, Cam must discover which is better: the agony of living, or the silence of tranquility.

    Summary

    It is Dragon 9:37, and war has begun. For two years the mage Viscountess of Kirkwall, Caitlyn Hawke, fought violence and obstruction as she expanded mage rights. But at last she and her husband Anders assassinated Meredith Stannard and declared the Kirkwall Circle independent, inspiring more Circle rebellions. Now the chantries of the northern Free Marches have declared a schism due to Divine Justinia’s support of Hawke, with former Grand Cleric Elthina as its “Divine.” Justinia cannot help, as the Templars and Seekers who aren’t joining the schism only care about keeping the other Circles in line. Caitlyn, Anders, the rebels, and their allies must fight the war alone.

    Challenges arise at home too. With an ambitious anti-war Coterie boss undermining Caitlyn from one side, mage supremacists from the other, and Grand Cleric Petrice urging Caitlyn to deal with foes ruthlessly, she is tempted more than ever to be a despot. Anders wants to help her keep to the light... but by 9:39, he has his own struggle, a dark voice that will not let him or Justice alone.

    (Canon-divergent Mage-Templar War that’s still mostly compatible with Asunder. Reading Parts 1 and 2 of the Spells series is advised.)

    Summary

    You’re not an unfamiliar sight. Mages from noble families are given more leeway. Besides, Ostwick’s Circle had a reputation for being rather sedate.

    Evelyn Trevelyan knows that her life in the Circle hasn't been all that bad, considering. But as the rebellion spreads throughout Thedas, everything begins to fall apart.

    Summary

    Sylvanni Lavellan has been acting as Inquisitor for so long now that she's not sure who she really is anymore. She's lost her clan, and with the pressures of leadership from all sides, she's set herself aside for the good of the cause. But when a report comes that the tragedy of Clan Lavellan's fall might not have been the unfortunate accident she'd been led to believe, the Inquisitor will find justice for her clan, and hope to find herself along the way.
