    Summary

    If her team saw her now, she’d never live it down. But this wasn’t about pride—it was about necessity.

    Solas stopped abruptly, turning to face her. His sharp, piercing gaze caught hers, and for a moment, Rook hesitated. Her breath faltered under the weight of his scrutiny. Slowly, she dropped her eyes to the ground and released her grip on his cloak.

    “I swear fealty to you,” she said. “I will be your blade, if you’ll allow it. I know I’ve kept things from you—my story, even my name—but I swear that whatever knowledge I have, it could aid your cause. This I swear.”

    She raised her eyes to meet his again, and to her surprise, Solas’s composure cracked. His mouth fell slightly ajar, and he stared at her as if she had just done something unfathomable.

    Without waiting for a response, Rook drew her blade from its sheath.

    “What are you—” Solas began, but the words faltered as she sliced the edge of the blade across her palm. A sharp hiss escaped her lips as blood seeped over her skin.

    or

    Rook ends up in the past in the middle of Solas’ rebellion. Not sure how she got there, she decides to ally herself with the Dreadwolf in hopes of somehow changing the future.

    Summary

    “Despite everything I had said, twenty-two years ago my father sent soldiers into an Illyrian camp.” Eris halted in the memory as he turned to his father. “And stole an infant Illyrian-halfbreed from her crib.” Horror dawned on him as he watched Beron smile wickedly at his son, motioning for the door to be opened. “He then spent twenty years-“ His voice shook.
    “-committing horrible atrocities, ones far worse than what was inflicted on Mor, in order to coax forth not just a shadowsinger-” The crack of the whip rang through the cell as a female roared in agony. “-but Lilith’s reincarnation.”

    In which a half-breed finds her way home and heals.

    Summary

    Nicolette has always been a little different. Either feared because of her ability to weave light around herself and disappear, or, if she kept her ability a secret, dismissed for having no power.

    After spending the first decade of Amarantha’s rule hiding anyone she can, Nic was recruited by the Night Court’s famous spy master and shadow slinger, Azriel. After the war with Hybern, she's done - she wants peace and quiet.

    She just wants to be left alone.

    Summary

    The moon asked the sun, “What do you know of love?”

    “It burns,” said the sun. “It brightens. It is something you make and then give away.”

    “Don’t listen to him,” said the clouds. “This big ball of gas doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

    “Yes, I do,” said the sun. “Who but me makes the roses grow?”

    “We do,” said the clouds. “Love nourishes, like the rain. We turn the hills green and fill the creeks so they will sing in their creekbeds.”

    “Why do you ask?” said the sun.

    “I think I might be in love,” said the moon. “I am trying to understand.”

    Summary

    Garrett Hawke is a simple guy. He likes simple things. Things like playing MMORPGs with his friends. Their guild, Wicked Grace, has been pretty exclusive for a while. But, when the guild becomes interested in recruiting a new member - an elven warrior named Fenris - what used to be a "fun way of passing time" becomes "Operation: Hard in Hightown" (or, as Isabela calls it, "Operation: Get Hawke Laid"). Needless to say, this operation is anything but simple.
