    Summary

    After swearing himself to the Grey Wardens as a child, twenty two-year-old Dalgar Thorne is finally allowed to take The Joining. He and two other recent Warden recruits head out into the Wandering Hills under the guidance of Senior Warden Olivier du Lac; there they will bring down their first darkspawn and prepare their vials of darkspawn blood for the ritual, shrouded in secrecy.

    At least, it's a secret from most recruits. Dalgar has known the hard truths of The Joining for years, and he is more than willing to make that sacrifice to secure his place among the Grey Wardens. But his fellow Warden recruits may not agree.

    Once their small party is deep in the wilderness, the two other recruits—a young human named Conrad and Sybil, an elven graverobber—reveal that they each have very different plans.

    Summary

    Contents of this fic: 1 Zevran: smooth as all-get-out, miserable, and totally unused to kindness. 1 Rhodri: appallingly awkward, embarrassingly kind, laughs at own jokes. Mix the two gently and carefully until combined, and point and laugh/despair (delete as applicable) at their boundless foolishness for added flavour.

    I'd say bon appetit, but honestly, 'good luck' seems more appropriate here.

    Summary

    Following the end of the Darkspawn Civil War and the subsequent attacks on the City of Amaranthine and Vigil's Keep (as told here in All But Broken), Renya is rushed back to her new home, wounded and unconscious. Leliana, unaware of what has transpired in her absence, arrives at Vigil's Keep to the commotion of the frantic return of the arl. But Renya's recovery is plagued by attempts on her life and safety, and when she uncovers a letter from an unlikely source at the Chantry, all evidence begins to point to Leliana as the one pulling the strings.

    Summary


    That's the world. Everything you build, it tears down. Everything you've got, it takes. And it's gone forever. The only choices you get are to lie down and die or keep going. He kept going. That's as close to beating the world as anyone gets. – Varric Tethras, Dragon Age: Inquisition
     
    I should start this by saying, I really should have known better. There’s no such thing as coincidence; it’s an illusion, a fabrication we create because we just want to move on with our lives as if nothing happened. For the longest time, I clung desperately to that illusion, to the belief that being reincarnated into a world I’d once known as a game was nothing more than a coincidence.

    It sounds so foolish, now that I think about it. I was so foolish. My only defense is this: the power of denial can never be underestimated.

    Yes, it’s a poor defense. Especially for me. Especially after what I’ve done.

    So here it is. A compendium of my life’s memories, jumbled together in the hope that someone, anyone, finds it in themselves to understand.

    Summary

    Everything was bathed in blood-red hue. She saw remnants of what could only be described as Arlathan. Beautiful cities are now laying in ruin. She slowly walked through the torn streets cautiously, constantly looking around thinking something was going to pop up and ambush her. But her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a monstrous roar. Several actually and the sound of a wolf. Amanatha sprinted towards the sounds, leaping over and sliding under the debris until she found herself blocked by what appeared to be mutated plants. The roars sounded again, and she spotted the source ahead. She saw what looked to be several corrupt dragons, even more massive than the dragons in the waking world. Something stirred within her. Something familiar and terrifying. A dark howl ripped through the sky. It was defiant but singular and radiated a power she had not felt before, yet it was familiar. Her eyes widened in surprise as she rounded a corner. A wolf as black as night with six eyes as red as a burning fire stood before the several dragons.

    Summary

    When people think of the Warden Order they often think of Blight and battles, of the heroes who have come and gone and the songs sung in their honor. Many a minstrel has played the lute in the halls of kings and spun tales of those who slay the archdemons. Of the great Lyna Mahariel, who gave her life in service of her people and the world. How she bravely struck the beast down and ended the Fifth Blight in a most dramatic fashion. And I should know, for I was there.
    Such names are etched in the sands of time, never to be forgotten in this life or the next. They are carved into the very fabric of the Fade, like the scar that once tore the sky asunder.
    But rarely do we remember the common folk, the ones who keep things running day to day. But these are their stories, told for your pleasure.

    Summary

    From the lesser known Warden of the Grey Wardens that survived Ostagar, somewhere between a memoir and a guide, this volume offers a unique collection that is a must read for any aspiring new Grey Wardens. Prefaced by best selling author, Varric Tethras.
    King Alistair Theirin looked at the book lying on his opulent desk as if it was an archdemon. In fact he would prefer it if it were an archdemon. He knew how to deal with those.

    Summary

    Storm 'Rook' Hawke never chose the Wardens.

    Weisshaupt was supposed to be training. To Storm, it felt like indoctrination—chants about sacrifice, banners dripping with death dressed up as duty, recruits calling it glory when all he saw was a countdown.

    Seventeen, youngest in the barracks, already too cynical for most, Storm kept his sarcasm sharp and his distance sharper. But Weisshaupt had its own rituals: drills, mess games, oaths. A culture built to break recruits down and rebuild them as one.

    He told himself he wouldn’t believe it. Wouldn’t belong.
    But belonging has teeth.
