#maybe he gave it to her when she agreed to help with the blight idk

@weptlore liked for a starter

It was morning, by Solas’ estimation, though such things were never clear in the Crossroads. He'd spent what passed as night sitting beneath the twisting vines of the brass tree he'd fashioned into a listening post. The lyrium dagger hummed in his hands, the blade resting on his outstretched palms. The hollow voices of the evanuris swirled and echoed with their arrogance, delusions, and typical infighting. They decried the rebellion and derided him, but none revealed a knowledge of the move the rebellion planned to make today.

He missed Felassan's footfalls as Mythal's voice rose above the din. Derision, dismissal. He cut the communication short, shoulders sagging, and allowed his eyes to close for a brief moment before realizing Felassan was there.

Solas hadn't slept. He wasn't sure if Felassan had.

He rose stiffly, posture falling back into something more resembling a leader of a rebellion. He hoped he did not look as haggard as he felt. "They seem unaware," he said by way of greeting. "That should buy us time for the extraction."

He drew a hand over his brow as if to push the relentless exhaustion from his mind. It was always thus. A small skirmish against impossible odds. A dozen people saved, perhaps, at the cost of dozens more. He'd cared about that once, deeply. Now, he just wanted to see it done. They could mourn when this was over.

"Andruil's hold over the land surrounding the village is strong," said Solas, as if either of them didn't know that all too well. Even here, tucked away safely in the labyrinth he'd created between June's modified eluvians, he said the god's name in a low voice. Their people's names held power. The Dread Wolf. The Slow Arrow. It was as much incantation as moniker. Best not to throw such things around casually. "I expect she'll make an appearance. I will draw her off," he added heavily, "but you must move quickly. She cannot be evaded for long."

He glanced past Felassan at the Vir Revas, and then finally met Felassan's eyes. There was always the risk before these little battles that the look would be their last. "With luck,” he said, doing what he could to affect a lighter tone, “we will be back before nightfall, and you can complain about how I was undoubtedly reckless."

Stay with us!! Yandere Luz + Amity x male reader! + Some of my TOH ocs (Also I don't condone yandere behavior this is just fiction!!)

!Requested!

Characters:

Luz Noceda: She/Her (more of a obsessive yandere)

Amity Blight: She/her (possessive and aggressive yandere-)

Y/N: He/Him (Bruh he doesn't want to be here-)

Kamora Firethorn: He/Him (Friend 1, has a pet Griffin named butterscotch)

Denndy Yumo: They/Them (idk-)

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

It was a beautiful day in the boiling isle, you got out of bed and did your normal daily routine, but during it, you couldn't help your two best friends Luz and Amity, they were acting really strange since a week ago when your classmate confessed to you, and when you made a Grudgby team with your other friends, Kamora and Denndy, you said you'd think about it but it scared you! But you got your mind of it and went to school, but before you could open up the door your best friends showed up

"Hey Y/N how are you? Are you okay do you feel well?!"

"Amity give him some space!"

"Oh right sorry... But Y/N why are you in your school uniform?"

You question them and they said their was a incident at the school again so school is off! You secretly questioned it because you didn't get any information that the school was out but since you didn't have to get thrown in the detention pit again you're completely okay with that!

"But hey can we come in? We have a surprise your you!~"

You agreed, when they stepped inside they gave you a small fairy pie,

"we mad sure to get it perfectly!"

"yep, and the ingredients are very fresh."

you took a bite but it tasted weird... Sleeping nettles..? Was this a prank, but before you could do anything you fell and we're losing consciousness

"Awww!! The plan worked!!~ Their asleep!"

"and there so cute when he sleeps! But goodnight Y/N...~"

And with that you fell asleep, but when you woke up, you were in a nice comfy room, but you were tied to a chair you were panicking, you started screaming for help but only two people came, Luz and Amity...

"Hermosa what is it? Are you hungry?"

"N-No I'm not, where am I? Did you bring me here?! LET ME GO!!" you tired to get out of the ropes but they were strong (amity got edric to fortify the rope)

"but... You're safe here! You'll never have to worry again!"

They hugged you, Amity even gave you a kiss on the cheek but you didn't want this... You wanted to play Grudgby with your friends! Like Kamora and Denndy ! You wanted to go home!! You stay there for days, maybe a week, only Amity and Luz could see you, but when you heard something but down the door you didn't expected to be your friends! it was your friends!! It was Kamora! And Denndy-

"Dude your here?! You've been missing for 2 weeks!"

"Yeah, and I had to cover your work!!"

You explained the Amity and Luz situation and how they basically kidnapped you, she used magic to cut the rope

"Well I'm here dude, now let's get out of here!! I only managed to get in here bc of butterscotch, but let's get you out of here!!"

"Yeah you know that big fat Griffin Kamora takes care of?"

"He's not fat >:0"

"Is!"

"is not!"

"is too!!"

Kamora took your hand and started to make their was out of the house, there and antics always put a smile on your face but it wouldn't last for long... Bc when you were outside a abomination grabbed Kamora and Denndy, while you were grabbed by Luz

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

"Hey let go of us you psychos!!"

"Amor are you okay? Did he hurt you!?"

"NO LET GO OF ME!!"

You tired to get out of Luz's grip but to no avail until

"BUTTERSCOTCH!!"

Then a Griffen showed up and started fighting, tbh it was a shit show before you managed to use a electricity spell to get out of their grass before getting to Kamora, then they got on the Griffen

"Y/N NO! Stay with us!! You'll be safe- WE can keep you safe!! Please!!!"

". . . ."

". . . I'm not.."

Kamora wasted no time getting up in the air, you were free..! But for how long... But you shook your head, you were with your two friends, you new best friends...

[tenebraetrash17]

UM OK BUT I WAS ACT IN TEARS OVER THE THINGS YOU AND GIVELIGHTNINGHERHAREM DID ABOUT BABY LIGHTNING AND RAVUS, SO I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT INSTEAD OF DYING, LIGHTNING SAVED HIM BEFORE HE COULD FIGHT THE BROS AND THEY LIVED IN DUSCAE TOGETHER AND EVERYONE JUST THOUGHT THEY BOTH DIED AND ONLY THE BOYS KNEW THE TRUTH

HI, I’VE NEVER PLAYED RED DEAD BUT I AM A L L FOR THIS, FAM.

Sorry it took so long to get to! I really wanted to think about this one..and failed because I got sidetracked, I’m so sorry, I’ve been half asleep lately ;u;

But yes!!! 100% all for this!!!

Fun fact tho! Ravus’ English VA is Dad Kogane!!! The guy who got a stone cold alien lady to fall head over heels for him? Yep, that’s Ravyoli!

You might think I’m mentioning this because I like to recognize voice actors and what not, sorryifanyonehasseenmegeekoutoverthem, but actually! I find it kind of interesting becaaaaaaause….Krolia is a whole lot like Lightning, I’m just gonna put that out there now!

Now we don’t know much about Dad Kogane other than he was a firefighter who lived alone, but we can see he was a pretty family oriented guy who was always willing to risk his life for the greater good and for his family! Which is pretty Ravus-y! Kind of-

So yeet, just really random trivia fact! Which might tie in?? Idk- I’m rambling at this point, LET’S JUMP RIGHT INTO IT!

Alright! So from what I’m getting from this…

An alternate timeline branch from the main game where instead of dissolving into nothing-ness, Lightning went and banished the blight?? Oh hells yes! And actually, them settling down in one of those abandoned farms tucked away somewhere in Duscae wouldn’t be too far fetched! Besides, no matter what good Ravus did, he still would be fairly unliked by the people of Lucis, unless they’re those horny chicks who were perving on him, he did a lot of bad things to them which might not be so easily forgivable! So what you said about him changing his name and turning over a new leaf is quite plausible!

Although, I can’t imagine Ravus being anyone other than a Ravus. He looks like a Ravus. Looking very Ravusy. A Ravusy Ravus (where am I going with this?). BUT LAST NAME HOWEVER! It would be possible that instead he would take on Lightning’s last name! His name would then translate as ‘Gray Thunder’ Which is cool until you consider that when you look it up, it also means gray sooooo…. “Gray Gray.” good name change, Gravy.

AlthoughRavusALSOmeanscharming,butIcan’tmakeGrayGrayjokeswiththat

THAT’S NOT TO SAY LIGHTNING WOULDN’T DO THE WHOLE NAME CHANGE TOO THO! Actually, she might just go back to being called Claire! After all, the name ‘Lightning’ is a bit famous around Eos, I’m certain! So Lightning goes by Claire now, and it doesn’t bother her half as much as she thought it would! Not to mention that Ravus never called her Lightning per say, so hearing the name ‘Claire’ coming from him isn’t a foreign sensation. Although it is pretty hard for her to register it, and anyone besides Ravy might have to say her name a few times to get her attention.

Ok! Onto life and how it all came about I guess?? Idk, did you want a story-ish analysis or was it just a hell yeah??

ANYWHO. 

I really like the way you put it for everyone thinks Ravus and Lightning died in Niflheim but only the bros know that’s not the case. Given that they would have to lay low for awhile to allow injuries to heal, Ravus would have been able to grow some stubble to at least alter his appearance somewhat, plus remove that fancy armor on his prosthetic. And I bet Lightning wasn’t often seen in photographs so it wouldn’t be easy to recognize her, even if she didn’t change anything! 

During that time period, I bet Prompto would be the first to visit with news of what happened to Noctis, as well as what the deal is with Ardyn. Now, Lightning is most likely to be compelled to go after Ardyn and stop him, but it’s most likely the thought of leaving Ravus in his current state will be what keeps her back, albeit reluctantly. Ravus would probably try to encourage her to, however, with something along the lines of. “Don’t let me hinder you with my burden. I can tell you want to go.” although Lightning would be having none of that and just grab his face and be all like “Listen, I saved your ass, so now I have to make sure that you don’t go and ruin my work.” which is basically her trying to say that she still wants to stay with him. Thankfully with so many shared years, Ravus understands and will only mention it in passing at times.

Don’t worry about Lightning though, she keeps her skills sharp in hunting the local wildlife, since they are trying to lay low for a few months, she relies mostly on Ignis for cooking supplies as she provides what to cook. Since Ravus is healing during this duration, (I mean, he got his chest cut open and then was twisted into a 9 foot tall monster, he’s going to be in recovery for awhile,) Lightning is going to most likely be the only one able to do much about the place. She gets cooking lessons from Ignis during his spare time, which entails him telling her what needs to be done, since he’s blind and stuff. She becomes surprisingly adept at it, much to Ignis’ delight.

Since Lightning gives Ravus nothing to do around the place, he tries to scheme up ways to help integrate them into society. More often than not, he finds that their identities would be unveiled, so it’s rather quickly shot down. Eventually he comes up with the idea of selling vegetables and meat at Lestallum, to which Lightning only raises an eyebrow.

“Are you saying you want to run a farm?”

“Not exactly….? More of….an occupation such as that is the best way to get a positive reception from the Lucians….”

“Ravus, just say you want to run a farm.”

“….I would like to run a farm.”

Whenever Lightning gets too apprehensive with the idea, namely when Ravus, the man who can hardly move without wincing, suggests that he goes to find seeds to plant, he always finds something to make her pause.

“What happened to the little girl who thought it would be fun to run wild in the woods of Tenebrae? Knowing full well she was by the serpents cave?”

“She grew up.”

“And yet, she also thought it would be wise to try to save someone who was corrupted, and has the ability to possibly turn her into very tiny pieces?”

That image is not welcome to Lightning so she often times doesn’t bring up that argument anymore. Which thus begins the start of their regular walks! Brought on by Lightning saying that she needs to be around in case he provokes some demon, or he’s some sort of werewolf who gets all goopy at night, which are steadily growing until there’s only an hour of daylight left.

When Ravus is fully healed, he and Lightning take turns going out hunting, although by now, there is nothing but night so eventually they decide to just head out together. They’ve adopted a stray dog at this point and he helps guard the house. Along with Ravus’ rites to make their little farm act like one of the havens Lunafreya set up, although it is considerably weaker, even with Lightning to help boost him. They’ve both been reluctant to move to Lestallum, after hearing the news that Gladio gave them about it being a safe place. Ravus still is wary of the Lucians and wants nothing to do with them, other than the occasional selling and buying he originally had the idea of when beginning the farm.

However, his outlook changes when Lightning becomes pregnant, they’ve both never experienced anything like it, and with no-one around, it’s no mystery that they’re both scared. Ravus eventually comes to terms with the fact that his runes aren’t strong enough and he doesn’t want their child to be in constant danger. And Lightning readily agrees.

Ravus does have to swallow his pride and go to Lestallum, being recognized by none surprisingly, save for Cor, Monica and Aranea, who remain silent on the matter since they were briefed by Ignis. They integrate rather well into society, even if they are a bit awkward at trying to act normal. A group of mothers soon noticed Lightning is expecting and they end up overloading her head with way too many facts and making the poor girl paranoid.

“I haven’t seen you look so worried since you had accidentally thrown a frog at Regis-!”

“HOW DO YOU STRETCH, BUT NOT STRETCH TOO HARD?!”

“What-”

“Mrs. Smith said that if I don’t stretch, the baby won’t grow, but if I stretch too far, it’ll hurt the baby!!”

“I think maybe you should relax-”

“HOW CAN I RELAX WHEN YOUR CHILD IS GIVING ME ANXIETY?!” 

Ravus eventually came to the decision to join the Kingsglaive and hunters in the quest to gain meteorshards, although in doing so he had to drastically change his style so no one would notice. Lightning was a big help to him in that as she helped him grow comfortable in using said weapons, as well as teaching him a different way to use his sword so he wouldn’t be recognizable. He also taught himself to tone down his strength unless no one was around. 

Ravus has also picked up hunter slang, Lightning stared at him for a good minute the first time he used it. He says it made him sound normal, she begs to differ.

Lightning also helped make up a story abut how he got his prosthetic.

“’So, a daemon bit me, and I was sure to perish, yet! My wife came in and chopped off my arm! Stopping the blight from spreading and I remain indebted to her forever!’”

“I don’t sound like that at all! And I’m cutting out the indebted part!”

“Well, maybe you only owe me a kiss and that will pay off everything?”

Oh yeah, Lightning’s mood swings include her yelling “I NEVER THOUGHT I’D MISS THE FUCKING SUN!” and scaring poor Ravus half to death.

Ravus made sure to take at least a month off from the hunters when their baby was born, which was both a thrill and bittersweet for him and Lightning since their child would grow up without the sun. Along the course of the nine years they spent in Lestallum, they ended up with five kids, most of whom had Lightning’s mischievous nature.

Once Noctis returned, the kids were smitten with him, and although they had to act like they didn’t know each other, Ravus attempted to crush Noctis’ hand when he went in for a shake, leading to a silent battle of wills that Lightning had to break up.

OK BUT YO, THE LIGHT IS BACK. IS NOCT DEAD? IDK, I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT WOULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN BECAUSE AU AND STUFF.

So! Since the sun is back, the daemons are vanquished, Ravus and Light can go back to their farm with their new little army, all is good! OH LOOK, NOW I CAN ACTUALLY GET TO THE FARM PART.

Ok, but Ravus immediately tends to his garden once they settle in. He needs produce to sell after all, and given his family’s success with flowers, he raises some of the best veggies around. It’s not uncommon to see Ravus with a few of the kids as he shows them how to plant seeds as Lightning sits on the porch with the baby.

There is a notably more softer version of Ravus and Light, ngl. Ravus mumbled something one time about it being those damn kids, only for his daughter to run in and show him a flower she found, making him smile like an absolute nerd.

The dog will often be the one to round up the kids while they play, which is helpful because more than likely the minute Ravus or Lightning catch one kid, the one they caught previously is gone as well.

Ravus woke up one morning to see that Lightning had went and gotten him a bunch of plaid shirts, she played innocent but he acted unamused. Which is one of the reasons why he chased her through the house and throughly scared the kids when he managed to catch her and his so called ‘attack’ was just a kiss, and kisses are gross y u c k.

Speaking of the farmhouse, Ravus had to get used to having stairs right after the door, since they were on the upper floor, or the repurposed attic, there were stairs right outside the door. Ravus, having lived in a palace all his life and when they did live in the farm, it was never upstairs because they hadn’t repaired it yet, so needless to say- it took awhile for him to remember. It wasn’t uncommon during the first few days to be awoken by a scream and some colorful words as Ravus had taken a step and tumbled down the stairs.

Lightning keeps up appearances by hiding their weapons on the top shelf in the kitchen. Noctis visited once and was surprised to see them nowhere around, although with a glance up he did notice, and Lightning tried to play it off as just some china.

Snow and Serah are regulars to the farm as they love the homegrown feel to it. Serah often talks about how she would like to run a chocobo ranch, which surprised Lightning because she thought her sister wanted to be a teacher. Although eventually Serah confessed that she was thinking that if she had a chocobo ranch AND a school, it would attract more students for her to teach.

HOLY COW, I’M SO SORRY, I WENT SO FAR OFF TOPIC????????? I WENT INTO THE WHOLE ORGINS OF THEM GETTING THE FARM, WENT INTO WORLD OF RUIN FOR SOME REASON, BUT COULDN’T COME UP WITH ANYTHING ACTUALLY BASED ON FARMER RAVUS.

WOW, I AM SO SORRY!!!

BUT IT’S A BEAUTIFUL IDEA YOU HAD, ANON!!!! I HONESTLY COULDN’T ADD ANYTHING TO IT TO MAKE IT BETTER!

Although I do want to share this little tidbit from the Lightis discord, idk why but it amused me! “Alright, farmer life it is.”

I HAVE NO IDEA WHY BUT IT MAKES ME CHUCKLE?

I chuckle at random things, I’m sorry.

Any how, I hope this weird storyline-headcannon thing was at least a fun read?? I’m so sorry I couldn’t add anything of value!

DRAGON AGE

Alright, so I’ve been wanting to talk about this for a while, now that I’ve gotten back into dragon age origins and since I’m about to start doing a shit ton of fanart and fic simply bc I’m getting back in the swing of it, I figure I might as well start actually making a post about them, rather then just making a one-off post and talking about them without out any context lol.

Ok so, in this AU that I’m working on, Duncan realized that, hey, maybe only one recruit for like the end of the world in his order of grey wardens, is not the best idea, and then goes on to recruit all of the characters from the origins.

So, he swings by Orzammar first, getting Brosca and Aeducan. In this au, the name of my Brosca is Tsoyo and the Aeducan is Sariah. I’m gonna post pictures of every one of my warden later, but for now, I’m just gonna say who they are. Tsoyo and Sariah knew each other before, since Seriah hired Tsoyo’s...services in the past. Seriah doesn’t really think much of the casteless, but she does like that they can do some dirty work for her and go basically undetected for it. So, in terms of time, Tsoyo goes to the proving and wins, just like in the original, and Duncan recruits her, but in this, Duncan stuck around a little longer as the Aeducan family still had business with him and he needed to go to the deep roads to make sure that this was a real blight and I mean, hey, what better way to test the new recruit right? 

So, while Duncan is getting Tsoyo ready for what’s to come, Seriah goes to the new provings that takes place as they redid it because they couldn’t fathom that a casteless could ever win and this doubled as them holding it in honor for the Seriah getting her new post as a commander. Seriah didn’t really rise to Bhelen’s bait and didn’t go after him like Bhelen had hoped, even though she realized that there was no way that the mercenaries could’ve gotten the ring unless it was from Trian. It was quite the surprise to see her brother, dead in front of her and her father and Bhelen walking in and being accused of his death. 

She gets sentenced to walk the deep roads and meets up with Duncan and Tsoyo and from there they scout for a bit before going off to the circle. Because I mean, hey, one mage is equivalent to ten soldiers, right? 

So, Duncan gets there, with Tsoyo and Seriah in tow who are really uncomfortable being around each other as they’ve had a less than clean relationship in the past (murder, blackmail, and other stuff). Duncan gets to the tower for recruits and in this au, both ‘Surana’ and Amell are there. I’ll explain why I put the ‘’ around Surana in a minute. 

So, Amell, who’s first name is Daylen, Jowan, and ‘Surana’, who’s first name is Acici, are all there. Jowan is going through with his little plot to escape the circle and Acici has literally just had her harrowing, a few nights ago before Duncan had gotten there. Daylen has his harrowing the night before Duncan arrives to the tower and his goes very...differently. 

I’ll go into this a LOT more in a second reblog, since I want to go into everyone’s backstory in a bit, person by person, with pictures, but since I’m going with the abridged version, I’ll just put it as, Acici had the normal harrowing that we get in the game, give or take, and Daylen thought it was fun to fuck around with things that he shouldn’t. So, Duncan has his eye on the both of them and Acici, being the actual loyal friend goes around bolstering her image and getting the rod of fire, killing spiders and charming the old man to sign the form for her. She had him sign the form, but then figured that if she curried favor with as many senior enchanters as possible, then it would probably be good for her in the long run. 

As for Daylen, well, he’s sitting there like, ‘why do we have to get dragged down with Jowan?’ and goes to Senior Enchanter Irving and tells him about it. Sure, he feels bad about it, but the deal was this: if he goes along with this plan, then he and Acici have to be pardoned and get off scot free for helping with taking down Lily and catching Jowan in the act. Irving agrees and he plays double agent. And well you know how that song and dance goes, Jowan gets away, and the others are left holding the bag. Irving tries to pacify Gregoir, but he hates mages so Duncan conscripts them both into the order. Meanwhile, Tsoyo and Seriah are just really confused with all the magic bullshit going on. And then there were four recruits. 

After that, Duncan and the four recruits go to Highever, to recruit Ser Gilmore because I guess Duncan wanted a basic ass bitch (idk, I’m not gonna lie, I haven’t finished the human noble to this day. I’m still trying to, but I really didn’t see any appeal in Gilmore like that, he seemed like someone good to have as a second, but not someone you’d send to kill an archdemon when there’s only two grey wardens left) and Cousland, or better known as Luna the heartbreaker, isn’t really interested in the wardens or anything. I mean why would she be? Duncan is fine and all, but she gets to rule over a castle by herself, why the hell would she want to leave? But then, it’s not really up to her when mostly everyone gets killed anyways. So, at this point we have five recruits, good job Duncan!

Their next stop is (drumroll please) DENERIM! (wasn’t expecting that were you?)

Duncan was like, shit, lemme go and get Adaia, at least that way I know that I can have someone who knows what the score is and she can help the others and Alistair as someone who’s been around the bend and seen some shit. Only, that’s not what happens, obviously because Adaia was killed by humans a while back, but he is just in time to witness a double wedding and get threatened by a one of the brides (lol). And also see them all get carried off to get raped by the arl’s son and his guards. Luna is cross, but like ‘hey, shouldn’t we do something about this?’. Tsoyo is a bit surprised because she thought that elves were all a bunch of fig eating floofies that just lived in happiness, not squalor and fear of death, so she seconds it. Acici is ready to murder Duncan when he says that they can’t get involved (for that same reason that ‘Surana’ is like that) and hands a sword to Nelaros and Soris. Go get ‘em boys!

And now the estate is running with blood, Nelaros is dead, Shianni is traumatized, one of the bridesmaids is dead, and Tabris, Sauda the bride, has literally learned all the different ways to kill over seventy men with a dagger and how quickly rat posion kills three adult human men. Sauda, not willing to let Soris get hauled off, says that it was all her doing. Which...isn’t really an exaggeration, she tore into those fuckers like she was getting paid to do it, Soris gave back up with his crossbow, but she was very eager to spill blood for the kidnapping of her, the others and Nelaros’ death. Also Vaughn was killed, as was his friends. Horrifically. 

And now we have six recruits!! Way to go Duncan, you always find the lively ones!

This recruit wasn’t planned, as Duncan was planning to cut through the Brecilian forest to save some time, and came across two elves that are just heavily tainted. That’s right, in this au, Tamlen lives. So Mahariel, Yeva, and Tamlen are just sick as fuck, but still alive so Marethari is like, ‘let’s get a fucking move on’ and Duncan conscripts them, when they both try to weasel their way out of it. But what can you do? At least Tamlen isn’t dead (a split second decision, I’m not gonna lie). So, Duncan comes to Ostagar with seven new recruits and most of them just....do not give a damn about the king (lolololol get fuckin’ rekt Calian). They go into the wilds, save a few mabaris (mabari? mabaris?) with some wild flowers, Tsoyo gets a big gay crush on Morrigan, then they come back and do shots with the darkspawn blood in the joining. Daveth and Jory die(wah wah) but everyone else makes it out alive (Tamlen...barely made it. Bitch nearly pulled a Daveth) and then they were sent to the tower. 

The reason for them all being sent to the tower was simple. Cailan realized that a lot of the new recruits just did not give a fuck about the crown or his authority or was in grieving over their lost loved ones, and was like ‘hey, that way there’s no way that the tower ISN’T going to be lit and I don’t have to worry about them on the field’). And then he died. Duncan didn’t die tho, are you fucking kidding me? The leader of the grey wardens? Dying? I don’t fucking think so. He makes it out, but it’s a little after the battle and he makes it far enough into the wilds that Flemeth saves him. The other wardens have already left with Morrigan and they’re on their way to Lothering, but Duncan had to stay with Flemeth for a while due to the severity of his wounds and how long they would take to heal, even with magic. 

Duncan joins up with the other grey wardens around the time that they get captured by Anora’s captors (I have to play to see who would get captured or not, as most of these characters are fucking warriors and some of them in their own personal runs might actually be able to take them down where others can’t) and I haven’t decided what happens at that point. 

That’s all that I have right now, but once I get some character portraits up, I’ll update this a bit more.
