Summary
He tells her half-truths of the anchor and how she might close the rifts, assures Cassandra that though she is a mage, she is not capable of such extraordinary magic, and laughs genuinely when she asks if Varric is with the chantry. He makes himself fit in.
The world is fractured beyond repair, these people are little more than tranquil, and the fade is locked behind his creation. If this woman, this interrupter with the markings of the all-mother is to be the key to their salvation, so be it. He has made more from less.

It was never supposed to happen like this, for either of them. But it did, and everything will change because of it.

Summary
Solas,
How many letters have I written and left unsent? How many books lay littered around homes I’ve come and gone from since Skyhold, all full of things I longed to tell you? I lost count years ago. I imagine a bookshelf dedicated to them in the Vir Dithara and that someday, wandering the Crossroads, you will stumble upon the musings of a woman who loved you to the point of madness.

Eight years pass and they both keep track of it, words they didn't share but should have. Words that might have made all the difference.

Summary
“The things your body does to me, Morinne,” he growls the words, wild with smoke and need, “there’s nothing I would deny you. For you, vhenan, I would give and give and give.”
---
His pride longs to lay claim to her, to show she's his. It's the smoke that makes it easier to admit.

Summary
“But you didn’t,” Rook cuts in, and Morinne takes a steadying sip of her wine. “I mean, you were never one of his agents, you never joined him.”
I wanted to, I tried, I sought him out to join even years later, Morinne thinks, but bites her tongue. No one wants to hear how the heroic Inquisitor, legend of the long gone Inquisition, left the world to burn in the name of love.
“No, it was always a bit more complicated than that.”
---
It hurt for ten years. It doesn't have to for much longer. The ritual goes wrong, blights threaten the world, and still, love remains.
A continuation of Requited, connected to Letters We Should've Sent, but no spoilers for either - this fic stands on its own and is intended to see the love story through to its end in the Fade.
