    Summary

    For librarian Lottie “Rook” Ingellvar, the pandemic was not the only darkness that swept over her life in 2020. An act of unbelievable betrayal and violence has left her numb as the world begins to thaw and life returns to normal. Struggling with equilibrium, her boss in special collections proposes to relieve her of her usual duties and set her up with a more flexible job - assisting a professor in his research.

    In the distinguished, older Professor Volkarin, Rook finds a stability she’s never known and an easy charm that soon develops into a roiling, back-breaking crush that threatens to upend the careful walls she’s erected around her heart and body.

    Summary

    “I think it’s too late anyways. I think I’ve already painted you both on my heart. And I’m terrified.”

    Dana Laidir has never been one to deny herself the things she wants. Not after going from slavery to servitude to the well-intentioned but overbearing adolescent years in the care of her adoptive aunts and uncles. Not when she’s spent adulthood perfecting how to obtain the things or people she most desires. But what she finds herself wanting the most, who she finds herself wanting, is not so easy to obtain. It’s more than the fleeting lust or desire she’s familiar with, and she knows that should scare her.

    Summary

    “What would Varric say if you did complain?”

    Lilya pitched her voice low and put on a poor Kirkwall accent. “’No one wants this job, kid, but you’ve got it. Use what you’ve got: the team, their connections, and your skills. You don’t know when to quit, so keep going.’”

    Lucanis allowed himself a quiet chuckle at her weak impression but nodded. “It’s good advice, save one thing.”

    “What’s that?”

    “If you don’t know when to quit, perhaps you need someone to tell you when it’s alright to stop.”

    “But—”

    “You’re no good to anyone if you push so hard you break.”

    Summary

    The payment for defeating blighted gods should be a few months to recover and at least fantasize about retirement. Instead, Rook and Lucanis must shoulder the weight of impossible expectations, navigate new strains on their evolving relationship, and cope with the fallout of an assassination attempt in Treviso that threatens to reopen every old wound. Couple that with Spite's increasingly erratic behavior... and it may be time to brew another pot of coffee.

    Summary

    A rewriting of the story of Veilguard helping Rook and Taash find themselves and giving them and the story some of the depth they deserve. There will be some divergence in how events play out in the main story, but nothing that changes the main story as a whole.

    I am but a humble fan who wants to see more than what we were given, so I will over invest myself.

    Will contain spoilers as some chapters will be named directly after their quests in-game.

    -

    She snorts a surprised laugh, causing Taash’s eyebrows to shoot up.

    “Why the heck are you wearing makeup?”

    Rook swears she sees the qunari’s pupils reduce to slits before an inhuman, draconic growl emits from her throat.

    “Fuck you.”

    Rook hears Harding’s disappointed sigh and Bellara’s sharp inhale as Taash palms her face, lifting her head slightly before smashing it back against the stone, turning her whole world black.

    Summary

    Something is haunting Thedas. Over the past few years there's been a string of assassinations and murders committed by an entity rumors call the Blood Crow. Whether specter or real person, no one knows. The Blood Crow is said to take only the worst of the worst across Thedas. Is this entity something to be feared or venerated?

    When rumors begin to spread that the Blood Crow may be a member of the Antivan Crows, Lucanis Dellamorte is determined to track down the truth. In the midst of this he and the rest of the Veilguard worry over the missing Rook who vanished without warning.

    When Rook reappears two years later, offering Taash a way to get Lace Harding, the Veilguard must determine if it really is Rook, or if the person claiming to be Rook is something far more dangerous.

    Summary

    Everyone bleeds, and so do Antivan Crows.
    The wings are sprouting through the back, and the only thing that reminds him that he's alive is the blood, hot on his skin. The magic forces her to get on her knees, and the only thing that reminds her that she's alive is the blood dripping through her scars.
    Everyone dies, and so do Antivan Crows.
    Maybe, in the end, he died in the Ossuary, and it's the Demon who controls the body. Maybe, in the end, she will die — or maybe she already has, and the world simply hasn’t told her yet.
    Not everyone survives the possession, but the two Antivan Crows did.
    The single Demon is loud in his head, never leaving him alone. Too many Spirits are always with her, and yet she's still alone with her thoughts.
    Everyone loves, in one way or another, and so do Antivan Crows.
    This is a love story.

    Summary

    Dawes 'Rook' Mercar has long accepted that his life would be a grueling and bloody-knuckled fistfight. He dreams of a new Imperium, of slavery abolished, of the Venatori eradicated; but his blind vengeance for the murder of his mother muddies the waters of his intentions.

    A chance meeting six months ago delivered him Scout Lace Harding, and impossibly, a reminder that goodness can still be found in some hearts. While he works through the brambles of his own mind, he asks her, selfishly, to wait for him.

    In the throes of the Sixth Blight, his traitorous heart has other plans.
