Summary
Storm 'Rook' Hawke is nineteen years old. Mage, Gray Warden, and far too powerful for anyone’s comfort — especially his own.
Estranged from his family, freshly recruited by the Inquisition (sort of), and shadowed by a name that once started rebellions, he’s trying to outrun a legacy he never asked for.
Enter Varric Tethras: storyteller, occasional diplomat, unofficial babysitter, and very tired dwarf.
Varric didn’t plan to babysit a Hawke again.
He certainly didn’t mean to mentor Anders and Hawke’s kid.
But when you're chasing ancient gods, fading leads, and bad decisions across Thedas... sometimes your best option is a chaos mage with your best friend’s cheekbones and none of their luck.Lightning. Legacy.
And the very worst kind of intern.Series

Summary
What if Rook were a jaded older Warden with a secret identity? What if she and Varric had known each other for a long time? What if she met Emmrich before? What if...?
"Varric smirks and swaggers over to the drunk's table, drink in hand.
“Well, my friend, if you want the tale of the Hero of Ferelden, then this is your lucky day. I have a firsthand account of the Fifth Blight ...”
Knowing he has their attention, he gets comfortable at the table, props his feet up, and launches into the tale of Warden Amell..."A story starting pre-Veilguard and following the game's plot (more or less) with appearances from characters from all the previous games, I would have loved to see again.

Summary
Takes place after Release, but you don't necessarily have to have read that first.
Rook's connection with Solas is a little more complicated than 'tenuous'. Davrin just wants him to be okay.
Or: Davrin doesn't know what to do with his fear.
Featuring Rook's POV now, too. Rook is a little broken.

Summary
When Quyen ran with her parents from her masters in Tevinter to Antiva, she was sure a better life awaited them. What she didn't know was that the daily grind of poverty in Treviso would drive her right into the arms of the Crows. What at first seemed like an escape from her bleak future only ended up hurting in different ways, and she'd nearly given up on the possibility of anything good coming out of her time with the Crows when Viago De Riva told him about her plans. Could it be possible to change their organization from the inside out? Is there an inherit contradiction in wanting to use an assassins' guild to do good?
For Lucanis, joining the Crows was always a given. Many a Crow had made the mistake of assuming that Illario and Lucanis must have received special treatment as the grandsons of the First Talon. On the contrary, Caterina had ensured that her grandsons trained longer, received stricter punishments, and were held to a higher standard than any other fledgling. It certainly made Lucanis and his cousin tough, but it left scars, both on the inside and out.
