Summary
Wilda Cousland, the Jewel of Highever, comes of age into a world of intrigue, turmoil, and really awful parties. The one bright spot in her life is the oldest son of her father's dearest friend. But when war, duty, and betrayal rip her world apart, does she have the strength to hold on to their unlikely bond? Or will her heart and her drawing arm lead her to safer shores?
All Origins exist in the world of this series (not both genders, though), but Female Cousland is the Warden. All others either die during their stories or are just normal folks that might show up later. This leads to some canon divergence, obviously. Sometimes MAJOR canon divergence.
This story's title and general feel is inspired by "Moments Before The Storm" by Poets of the Fall. The individual chapters are named after a poem by Dante Alighieri from his Vita Nuova.

Summary
“Do you have any idea what is at stake here?”
The words rang hollow to Varric’s ears. Of course, he knew what was at stake. “Let me guess,” he drawled lowly, “your precious Chantry’s fallen to pieces and put the entire world on the brink of war?”
He lowered the accusing finger he had pointed at the Seeker’s back. “And you need the one person who could help you put it back together.”
“The Champion was at the heart of it when it all began. If you can’t point me to him, tell me everything you know.”
“You aren’t worried I’ll just make it up as I go?”
“Not at all,” she said, firmly.
Varric steeped his fingers. “You’ll need to hear the whole story. And like all stories of this age, it begins with the Blight.”
~~~
Years with only anarchy, bloodshed, and death to look forward to. Solona hadn’t given much thought to her future as Duncan whisked her away from the Circle, shocked by Jowan revealing himself to be a blood mage. If she had known what laid in wait, Solona would have resisted the Warden’s recruitment efforts.Okay, that was a lie. War, betrayal, and darkspawn were a price she would gladly pray for the freedom life as a Grey Warden offered.

Summary
Neither elf had been paying attention to the Amulet dangling from the mage's hands as it began to pulse a harsher red in response to being in direct contact with the shapeshifter's magic. The mage in question had opened her mouth to respond, but she never got the chance. The enchanted amulet reacted, the charm floating up a bit before a bright red portal opened, pulling both women through it with a flash.
The only thing left behind was a burn mark on the floor where both elves once stood.
