    Summary

    It is the final day of the siege of Suchdol. Judgement Day, some would call it later on. The Praguers' camp had been razed to the ground by reinforcements arriving from Rattay: with Markvart dead, the rest of their forces flee.

    Yet, despite being taken back, no victorious hymns echo through the fort. Mortal silence falls upon them: in the heart of the inner courtyard, Sir Hans Capon of Pirkstein kneels, unmoving, on the blood-soaked ground. No words reach him—no hands are strong enough to pull him away. Those who try to approach him cross themselves: the young lord is blind to the world.

    It is only Father Godwin’s prayer that breaks through; his palms shaking, spread over Hans’ head: Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificetur nomen tuum; adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua.

     

    Fiat voluntas tua, he repeats, and waits.

     

    Sicut in cælo et in terra, Hans finishes, his voice breaking. He raises his eyes for the briefest moment—as Godwin kneels down to gently pry his hands away.

    Henry’s body in his arms is already cold.

    Was it not the utmost privilege of lovers—to follow? Through that final, indecipherable door?

    Summary

    When Cullen is sent outside of Kinloch Hold to investigate apostate activity in Amaranthine, he gets more than he bargained for when he meets a rather handsome and obnoxious mage who only barely cooperates with his captors. (templar!Cullen/apostate!Dorian)

    For a long while, Cullen looked to the flames crackling in front of him, tongue tracing over his lips, pulse racing as he recalled the kiss they had shared. More than once, he found himself grinning at nothing in particular, the mage's inferred promise enough to put him in such a giddy state.

     

    We'll need to do this again sometime.

     

    And by Andraste, he intended on seeing that to fulfillment.

    Summary

    20:38 Innovatus - Nearly a decade after the first android is released on the market in Tevinter, all of Thedas is experiencing a new era of technological innovation but at the cost of mass poverty: alienages, once home to city elves, are now overrun by humans and other races, many organics replaced by cheaper, more efficient, synthetics. It's in the alienage of Denerim where recovering lyrium-addict, Cullen Rutherford, finds unlikely companionship in a synthetic he can rent by the hour.

    "... I'll forget who I am,” the android says. It entwines their fingers, pressing the coin against Cullen's hand. “And you.”

    Cullen isn't as slow to catch on as everyone thinks. He's just slow to act on it.

    "You came here to kill me, didn't you? So do it."

    "Cullen--"

    The commander sank to his knees suddenly, staring up at the three of them, the fires making deep hollows of his eyes. His eyes, where tears sparked at their centers.
