Summary
When Rook gets trapped in a memory, they are sentenced for breaking into Dirthamen's library. The last thing they expect to see, is Solas wearing Mythal's vallaslin. That is, however, nothing compared to his offer. Solas promises to free them in exchange for guiding him to the Dread Wolf's place of exile.
With no choice but to agree, Rook goes on a journey that threatens to alter more than their perception of the mage who seeks to tear down the Veil.

Well, This Is Shit by AquaticQueer

Summary
One could say that Varric was not having the time of his life. Spending over a decade tracking down your ex bend on tearing down the Veil. Shit. Getting stabbed by said ex's lyrium dagger. Shit. Harding claims that the dagger ought to have killed him. That Solas had pierced his heart. All utter nonsense for he was here, lying in bed, about to head to sleep.
Though maybe he should have agreed to let Neve take a look at him prior to closing his eyes. Then again, why shouldn't he add dreaming and magic to the already heaping pile of dung he found himself in?
Varric wanted to jump across the gap between them. Walk over to him, place a hand on his arm and squeeze. Assure him that it wasn’t too late. Everything would all turn out okay if he just left the Veil the way it was. The Echo wiped near his eyes and it just… He did not want to see Solas like this. Did not need to see Solas like this. He shifted his feet. Dug his toes into the sand. The Echo wasn’t Solas. The Echo wasn’t real. The real one—the actual fool—must have gone into hiding. Scheming. Cooking up another way to end Thedas.
