Summary
illustrated by vjatoch
A story about the Blight, about four treaties and a battle. A story about war—and about falling in love.

It is fully pre-written and illustrated, and is being published in a serial format with weekly updates beginning in September of 2024. Currently on posting hiatus (end of year 2025 to early-to-mid 2026).

Summary
His words are choppy and discordant in her ears, but she can make sense of some of them. She’s known, they’ve all known, that Illario held her with a measure of disapproval, that he didn’t feel the street rat who Viago had quite literally snatched out of mid air and dragged back to Salle hissing and spitting and biting was worthy of becoming a Talon’s protégé.
She hadn’t realised he may have coveted her in other ways, ways that are becoming clearer and clearer as his hot breath skates across her throat and he bites down hard enough to make her cry in pain. She can smell the blood in the air.
“Vi—ago,” she spat, though it came out more as a soft slur. “Will — kill you for this.”
-- -- --
Flashes of light.
Head pounding.
Bile in her throat. Clawing at her, trying to escape. She wants to wretch but she is floating and can’t find purchase to turn.
No— not floating but... being carried? Who has her? She tries to squirm free, but her limbs refuse to respond.
The movement stops.
“Hush, uccellina, be still.”
A voice she knows, a voice she trusts— she lets it guide her back into the abyss.

Summary
In theory, Vero Solano is living every hockey-obsessed kid’s dream. After surviving a string of hazing incidents, they’ve clawed their way to the Show – the Thedas Hockey League. When Vero is traded mid-season to the Antiva City Crows, they’re preceded by their reputation as a stand-offish loner who prefers anonymous hookups off the ice to team bonding. To everyone’s surprise – including and especially their own – they soon find themself connecting with Viago de Riva, the Crows’ enigmatic goaltender whose on-ice brilliance has earned him respect despite his own eccentricities.
A 14-year THL veteran and the cornerstone of the franchise, Viago has spent his entire career barely tolerating his teammates. Still, there’s something about Vero’s careful detachment that’s entirely too familiar. Despite his misgivings, he finds himself offering the Crows' newest defense player post-practice advice that quickly evolves into something that looks dangerously like friendship – and maybe more.
(Actual fic length is approximately 54,500 words. The rest is footnotes/glossary.)

Summary
In the wake of her mother’s murder and the Qunari invasion of Kirkwall, Flora Hawke is adrift in grief and guilt. When she rescues a hapless drunk and fellow Fereldan from attempted murder in the midst of a street brawl, she’s astonished to learn the man had once pretended to the Fereldan Throne.
Six years exiled from his homeland, freshly installed in Kirkwall in search of work and purpose, Alistair wakes from a rough night in an unexpected predicament: stashed for safekeeping in the home of the Champion of Kirkwall.
Holed up together in Flora’s empty home, the pair work to uncover an assassination plot against the would-be king before it catches up to him. Tangled in parallels and coincidences, still battling their own shadows, Flora and Alistair surrender to the pull between them and find their way back into the light.
