    Summary

    "You concern yourself a great deal with other's romance, Cole. Why do you think that is?" Maryden inquired one evening near the end of their stay, as she strummed a few bars of "A Garden's Grace." Her tone was curious, with a faint edge of something Cole could not name. He pondered her question from his seat on a stone wall, looking out over the dark water and the shivering reflection of the moon.

    "People need help," he shrugged, "with that, more than anything else. They keep their hearts in cages, safe, but sad. Sometimes they won't admit their feelings even to themselves."

    Maryden hummed – that note again, that little undertone of…something.

    "You would be good at it. You could write a song to weave two hearts together, like harmonies." That brought a smile back to her face, though she still wasn't looking at him, and her next words made him tense.

    "Could I do it for myself, I wonder?"

    Cole wondered who she'd need to snare, that way.


    Cole and Maryden embark on an adventure, and find something more along the way. Written for the DA Reverse Bang 2025.

    Summary

    What is one to do when a war ends?

    They go home. So hero crowned as he is, he goes home -- to lick his wounds and his heavy heart.

    To drown in the many what ifs and things he left unspoken when faced with the need to be a soldier. That is not who he is, that is not who he has ever been. He is a man most comfortable around flowers and the strong scent of embalming fluid and old blood.

    The Necropolis waits for him, as it waits for them all. It may change, but it will always smell the same, it will always feel the same to him. He is a Mourn Watcher and he is home.

    Summary

    After weeks of watching the shipments depart Dock Town and questioning at least a dozen dockhands, Rook and Lyvia finally uncovered their destination. Every vessel that crossed the Nocen Sea carried its stock south to Vyrantium and then went straight to Nevarra City via caravan. Once the route was confirmed, the Crow and her Shadow wasted no time setting their course for the city of the undead.

    "Eluvians," Lyvia whispered as they exited the rippling mirror into the Necropolis, and she looked around them. It had taken a small bit of convincing from Rook that this form of travel was completely safe and a thousand times faster than traditional methods, but once Lyvia set foot into the Crossroads, she was on board with all of it.

    Summary

    Long before Varric Tethras gave her the name Rook, Veryl Ingellvar was just another body amongst those that served in the Mourn Watch.

    Under the cover of darkness she served whims and circumvented chaos. Her role was legendary and never more than a mere rumor.

    Before she was known as Rook, she was never known to be The Spectre of the Grand Necropolis.
