"I know that man... but this Elder One..." Cullen trailed off as he stared up at the monster on the hillside.
Krishna stared openly, knowing she would much prefer a bow at the moment. Distance was exactly what she wanted from this thing. The creature put her in the mind of darkspawn, a corrupt...
Falon looked around quickly, the sudden burst of screams and the bell filling his ears. He followed Cassandra to the gates were all of his advisors had been standing. He soon caught a glimpse of Krishna running to the group. Falon turned to look at her, panic filled his face, however not a...
The opposite was true of him. He didn't understand how someone could talk so much all the time. Crow had barely talked in the rare moments of free time he had allotted. And when they did, it was a command, an instruction, a criticism. There was no such thing as idle talk. Even after a while, he...
"You are right. The threat still remains and it will be our duty to seek it out." She paused, and said, in a unusual moment of optimism, "However, tonight was a victory. And a victory of alliance, at that. One of few in recent memory. With the Breach closed, that alliance will need new focus."...
"I believe dinner will do me well. I have been tending to the wounded all day and it has taxed me." She took her husband's hand before quickly calling out to the others, "I will see you all tomorrow."
After receiving farewells from her friends and coworkers, Noita followed the Companions to...
It never occurred to him to make this hideout more homey. The more abandoned it looked, the better. Settling was never an option for Owl. In all this time alone, he never thought to leave his training behind and just... live. Instead, he remained a ghost in the night; invisible, alone. And lost...
Before he could say another word, Varric called out to the Tevinter mage. "Hey Pavus, Sera ran off to go through your stuff again."
"Oh son of a-" He sighed and looked at Falon. "Sorry to cut this short, but I put an enchantment on my chests. I really don't want to have her blow anything up...
"That's not my fault," he replied offhandedly.
"Regardless, why don't we finish up here and head home," Noita said, ready to have this discussion over with. "I'm sure Kodlak is waiting for all of you and it's nearly time for dinner."

He led the prisoner through the town, flames...
"Oh, there was plenty of that too. The only country worse than us in that regard is Orlais. If you want to talk about dramatic, that's exactly what you should think of."
He looked at the Herald over his mug as he took a drink. "Well, hiding in a forest after helping save Ferelden does prevent...
She laughed as he covered her in kisses, his stubble tickling her skin. It took everything in her not to tell him "down, boy." When he set her down, she smiled at him and squeezed his hand.
"Don't worry, Aela, she's tougher than she looks. I mean, she has to be to train the Dragonborn, right?"...
"We are actually much alike," he said, forcing himself not to laugh. "I'm sure he will like you as well."
The Argonian yawned as well. "I am as well. I will see you in the morning. Good night."
It occurred to him again at that moment that they would in fact be sleeping right next to each...
Violence and death served as background noise for the pair as they walked. That was nothing new for him, but he had to wonder, given her demeanor, what Darling was used to. Whatever it was, it was certainly quieter than this. He wouldn't say a Vault, she didn't appear that lost. Somewhere far...
It may not have been for the same reason, but he knew a good deal about trying to be okay. You act like everything is fine, that you're just sailing along. But in that moment between consciousness and sleep, you know you're drowning. And then you go out and pretend everything is alright, like...
"It may not be quite like the parties I've attended at home - less deception and assassination plots - but this is just as nice. I think it's more the reason we're celebrating, than anything," he added. "And I'm sure you're having quite a good time. You're the bell of the ball tonight."

Sometimes Noita wished that she and her brother-in-law would get along. It would make things much simpler. But, she also didn't like him as much as she should, which made getting along difficult. But they tolerated each other for Farkas' sake, and they both knew how much he meant to the other...
Growing up in the household he did, it was obvious that Nerandros had been free to explore his interests without fear of rejection from his family. It was something he was very comfortable with because of that. Once again, he knew that he was very lucky to have the life he did.
The Archmage...
Like her, Owl kept watch for anything that may have attempted to sneak up on them. He was usually the one sneaking, but now he was the one watching the shadows. As one who typically assumed the role of an apex predator, he knew how easy of a target lame prey could be. However, nothing came forth...
He smiled. "Hey there. So you're the new guy, huh? Well, welcome to the academy, since I'm guessing Fitz didn't really give you that great of a welcome. I'm Max."
He held out his large hand for the other to shake.
"I heard there was another new kid, a girl. I was hoping to show both of you...
