    Summary

    Great figures arise from crucibles of cruel design. When the Blight forces long-disgraced Leandra Amell and her children to emigrate back to Kirkwall, her eldest paves their future with mayhem and reports of apostate behaviors amongst the mercenary circles. Someone that unhinged would crawl under Bartrand’s skin and was precisely the type of person Varric intended to use. Or, at least, that was the plan.

    Updated monthly after chapter three.

    Summary

    Modest in temper, bold in deed.

    That was the motto of House Trevelyan. But as a mage in the Ostwick Circle, Evelyn Trevelyan would only ever be able to fulfill the first half. Boldness was not something the world wanted from a mage. Evelyn had long accepted this fact, even as she dreamed of freedom, if only a fraction of the freedom others enjoyed. When a mage destroyed a Chantry in Kirkwall, starting what would become the Templar-Mage War, Evelyn found herself thrust into a world that required boldness not only for survival, but for the savior it saw in the Herald of Andraste. Can an ex-templar teach her to trust herself and the boldness he sees hidden deep inside?

    Summary

    The Herald is gone.

    Assumed dead for a year, as the Breach and lyrium-sickness spread beneath the Elder One. The world is on its knees and most have all but given up, but Cullen Rutherford has learned that Leliana is alive and held captive by Alexius. He will not leave her to a slow, brutal death by torture.

    Unwilling to wait around until the world decides to collapse in on itself, the Commander of the fallen Inquisition stages a final, desperate rescue attempt. If it results in his death, than he will go gladly into the Maker's embrace.

    He does not expect the woman that he'd silently loved, and prematurely lost, to step out of the shadows.

    Follows the events of 'In Hushed Whispers.'

    Summary

    It is not difficult for Kotallo to think of Aloy, especially when she burns as brightly as the desert sun.

    Yet he has never allowed himself to act on such thoughts, not when she is his commander and he is a Marshal.

    So when she asks him for his assistance on a mission, he battles between his duty to fight and protect, and his desire to touch her.

    Occurs post-game so will contain spoilers.

    Summary

    When Kotallo lost his arm, it was more than just a limb that he had lost. It was his prowess with a bow. It was his utility as a Marshal. His arm was gone, his life a ruin, and nothing would ever be the same.

    It did not occur to him that this could be a good thing.

    It did not occur to him that he could find new purpose in his life. It did not occur to him that an outlander with hair like blood and a spirit as fierce as blazefire would help him find that purpose.

    With Aloy as his witness, Kotallo would find himself again, and nothing would ever be the same.

    ********************
    In other words: a wish fulfillment fic where Aloy and Kotallo fall in love over the course of the game. Canon scenes and dialogue blended and padded out with introspection, cozy conversations, smut, and all the GAIA Gang bonding that we deserved. ❤
