Cullen arrives at his first assignment to the Kinloch Hold Circle Tower on Lake Calenhad, in his home arling of Redcliffe and just a few days and a ferry ride from the village of Honnleath. But his whole life is different. Cullen begins to learn to operate in a world where Fereldans must cooperate with Orlesians and humans with elves, where mages usually speak about Templars rather than to them, and Cullen's entire experience of reality is filtered through the lens of a lyrium dust.
In the first few weeks' of his time at Kinloch Hold, Cullen is still making an impression on the inmates of the Tower, mages and Templars alike, when he observes something after the rest day service that pulls him into a series of events that will make him unforgettable to them all, as well as show him exactly what he has signed up for with the Templar Knights.
