!! DATV SPOILERS !!
Dragon Age Awakening crew if they were in Veilguard. My own personal headcanon is that the team gets together one last time to defend Denerim during the sixth blight. I'd like to think that they end up being the few Wardens that stay behind in Ferelden due to their loyalty to the HoF.
(I could go on and on about what I think would happen in this situation, and at this point I should just write the DLC lol)
Hello, how are you ? :) Sorry to bother you ; I wondered if there was a band you would associate with Nathaniel ? I'm drawing DA characters in bandshirts, and I admit I have no precise idea for this good sir... There is hardly someone better qualified than you to answer this 😅
Hi there! I am well, and no worries! You’re not bothering me at ALL! This is actually probably one of the best asks I’ve ever gotten, and I will probably never forget it. I had to take sometime to really think about what kind of music I associate with Nate.Nathaniel is someone who, while being part of the “status quo,” does not really adhere to the standards of such. He’s just slightly left of the status quo, and when I write him, I’ve really listened to a lot of alternative rock, which is rather fitting I think. While I don’t have a particular band that I associate him with, I think it would be fair to say that anything from that genre would be quite fitting!I’m truly honor that you thought to ask me, and I hope that this helps at least a little. I am looking forward to seeing this glorious art! <3
“They won’t make it as a Grey Warden.”
“Commander?”
“The two new recruits. They won’t survive the joining. Tell the others to find some position for them around the keep.”
“Can you be so sure?”
Nathaniel glanced over at the Warden Commander, the one woman in all of Thedas who saw him, not his family name, and gave him a chance. How he wished he could jerk some sense into his younger self for having been so stubborn and selfish, to not see it wasn’t a punishment, but a chance. But even now, seven and a half years later, he still would find himself on occasion questioning one of his dearest friends.
“They’ve not enough darkness about them, Nate,” she whispered, shaking her head slightly. Her hair was getting long, he noted, a bit concerned. Every time her hair got long, she would leave for a few months, only to return with it cropped closed to her scalp once again. He hated those months when she left, the Keep filled with many people, but few who understood him as well as she and Oghren did. Anders had fled, and Valenna and Sigrund were gone off to who knew where. They’d gone and looked, but it was near impossible to find those who didn’t want to be found.
“I’ve seen enough Joinings. I’ve seen enough good people die. Things are coming, Nate. There are whispers on the wind, rumblings in Orlais, and in the Free Marches.”
“You’re taking another solo trip?”
“I’m going to find a cure. I don’t know how long I’ll be gone. You’ll be in charge. Oghren will help. Stroud will mind the new recruits.”
“Ellana.”
She turned to face him, for the first time since their conversation had started. She seemed so much older than when they’d met. He supposed he did too. The Elven mage held a weariness about her she didn’t dare show outside of closed quarters with a very select few people.
“I’m not looking to live forever, Nate. Just long enough to see if I have to save the world again.”
He gave a short snort and shook his head.
“I’ll keep an eye out for a raven then.”
“You know as well as I Wardens aren’t to interfere.”
“And for as long as I’ve known you that’s not been true.”
“Keep everyone in one piece. If Orlais comes looking for more Wardens, send ravens to Val Royeaux and Denerim. One to Antiva if you’re desperate. I’ll get word.”
He gave a nod and clasped a hand on her shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze. Nathaniel didn’t say another word as he watched his Warden Commander, Ellana Surana of Fereldan turn and walk out the door, not knowing what was to come, and praying that it would all work out for the best.
I started this ages ago and finally finished it, since my last Dragon Age Awakening post is getting a lot of likes lately.
Don’t remember if I meant to add dialogue to this but here it is lol.
(Is it too much to ask if they show up again in DA4??)
Also I just find it really funny that both Zevran and Nathaniel were in the final battle with Meredith. Like one of them had to have told the Warden about Anders, right?
