When Fenris arrives at his temporary clinic, in need of a healer, Anders intends to help, leave, and avoid several very obvious problems.

Unfortunately, Fenris has never been one of his easier habits to break.

Rating: General Summary: Marillia "Lia" Theirin is the imaginative child of Alistair and Anora Mac Tir. The heir to a kingdom, she spends more of her days daydreaming and pretending her life were a fairy tale than focusing on becoming a great future queen, much to her mother's disappointment. All of that changes when a mysterious black bird comes to her window seeking refuge. "Rook" is a strangely intelligent bird intent on finding the King of Ferelden and delivering an important message only meant for his ears. These two unlikely friends navigate the uncomfortable spaces between childhood and adulthood, as they discover that the parents they had idealized may be fallible humans after all.

Rating: Mature Summary: Merrill is alone.

Martha made sure the clan held no home for her. Hawke made his distance clear, and his friends followed suit.

Only the demon to keep her company in Kirkwall, her days and nights are consumed with her mission.

And if a wolf stalks her dreams?

It's nothing. She made a promise to herself, and she will pay the price of what it costs.

Rating: Mature Summary: The truth is, no one on this side of the Veil really knows what it looks like when the blorbos are put away. Where do they go when we are not actively imagining them in– situations?

Rating: Explicit Summary: Solas has been stuck as a painting since he created the Veil over three thousand years ago.

Rook de Riva enjoys liberating objects from their current whereabouts (definitely not pretty paintings that catch his eye on his way to assassinate a target).

Can one assist the other without unleashing something irreversible?

Together, they're faced with complex obstacles built by the God of Craft himself, that bend the rules of time and space, in search of something that would give Mythal's army control of the eluvians.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/85358526/chapters/225448776 Hi everyone! We're back with our twenty-first piece for the Dragon Age Big Bang 2026! We had an uneven number of works this year, so one day only gets one work, and that day happens to be today!

So let's give it up for author SeigePhoenix and artist Shayslounge-Art; they did incredible work! Go check out their efforts over on Archive of Our Own, and we hope y'all enjoy!

Rating: Mature Summary: Outside of Thedas’ borders lies the Donarks mountain range. Nestled among the thick jungle undergrowth is a temple dedicated to Ghilan’nain untouched by time. Isabela followed Merrill as her lover searched for the Vallasin’nadas, an artifact left behind by the mother of the halla. As they explore the temple, Isabela quickly realizes all is not as it seems in this temple. Strange voices and frescos depicting twisted and grotesque monsters plague her as she follows Merrill deeper. Until they reach the belly of the beast and they learn that Ghilan’nain was not the mother of the halla. She was the mother of monsters.
