Reviving the Dormant Seed
Based off a fanfic idea from Tumblr user @artistic-bepp (Post to said idea here)
9:52 Dragon. The last of the Evanuris have been defeated and the heroes of the Veilguard successfully prevented Solas from tearing down the Veil and flooding the world in unspeakable chaos, though it had to be done without their beloved leader. Bryony "Rook" Laidir, a Lords of Fortune dwarf, was pulled into the Fade at Tearstone Island and despite the best efforts of her companions was never heard from again... Until two young elves, driven by the desire to save the world from the threat of the Devouring Storm, decide to take it upon themselves to pierce the Veil and free a much needed but despised hero from their prison... Rook finds herself over a century into the future, in a Thedas she no longer recognizes but is once again on the verge of imminent disaster, playing catch up with her immortal lover, all the while coping with not only the changes throughout the world but within herself. After all, one does survive in the Fade for a hundred and ten years and not come out without a few new quirks...
This is an AU/Split branch path from my other fanfic, Nyctinasty, an Emotional Interlude. Where Rook fails to figure out the Fade to participate in the final battle against Elgar'nan. Be warned, for a time skip has occurred and shenanigans are abound. (Also, there will be several OCs in this piece, so, if that bothers you, my apologies.)
