Summary
Valeria "Rook" Ingellvar had never left the Grand Necropolis in her life. Since being found there as an infant, she'd been taken in by the Mourn Watch and had devoted her life to their teachings. She wanted nothing more than to study the necromantic arts for the rest of her days, and maybe even become a professor of the subject. And then an uprising between undead nobility had thrown everything into chaos and ruined her life. Varric Tethras had taken her in when no one else would have, and had given her a new perspective, and for that, she owed him everything. And just when she was beginning to think she had her feet underneath her again, the world had thrown her another curveball.
Now, with Varric hurt and three ancient elven gods to contend with--one of whom is hanging around inside her head--Valeria must be the leader that she never wanted to be, and that Varric insists she was meant to be all along. All she wants is to go home--or maybe she never wants to go home again. So, how will she handle it when a piece of home, in the form of Professor Emmrich Volkarin, makes his way into her life?
