“Those are fantastic, Chuckles. You’ve certainly an eye for composition. More inspiration for your murals?”

“You didn’t miss anything, Daisy. We’re just debating whether we’re happy or glad which of us are losing this impossible game. The Rivaini seems to have this in the bag…” *staring on his fourth tankard of ale seemingly still sober*

"Just down the hatch, Daisy. You'll feel better, trust me. And don't worry, I'll walk you home later so you don't have to worry about any weirdos following you home."

"Says the guy nearly naked like the rest of us. Suppose you don't have much to lose since the Rivaini's already seen all of you, Hawke. Doesn't leave much to the imagination."

Sighs heavily and takes off his jacket as well. 'We're getting down to bare bones here. I'm just putting it out there right now that my necklace is non-negotiable, it's a family heirloom." Takes another slug of his ale, reluctant to continue playing the game.

"Full of shit, yes. Cards lined up my sleeves or....wherever...no. I'm good at talking my way out of shit, but not hiding things or whatever you're doing." *took another gulp of the ale as it just arrived at their table*

“It doesn’t matter how much you practice, the Rivani always seems to have the upper hand…” *squinted at the pirate suspiciously*

“It’s bad if you want to go home with some dignity, Daisy.”

“The pirate captain over here won the hand….AGAIN.” *shaking his head* "Just a little too convenient, don't you think?"

The Hanged Man - Kirkwall 9:34 Dragon --------------------------------------------- “You’ve gotta be shitting me. Again?” *throws his cards down on the table in frustration* "That's the fourth time in a row, in case no one has been keeping score." @merrillthefirst.bsky.social

*chuckled in his ale* “That’s not all we lost to Isabela, especially you, Hawke. Ancestors, what didn't you lose to her?”

“You’re asking the wrong guy, but I got you.” The dwarf went up to the barkeeper and returned with a few drinks each for them. He sat back in his chair and took a big gulp, then sighed. “This is good, but not as good as The Hanged Man. They had way stronger shit there.”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

“What can I say? It’s the place to be to hear all the gossip. Can I buy you a drink?”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

“Did I say that? I didn’t confirm I wrote that particular series. Though after talking more to Ruffles about her experience, I did consider writing a series about nobles and court intrigue. Could be an interesting change of pace, try my hand at that.”

“And by ‘everyone’ you mean yourself? Even if that were true — which is isn’t — I wouldn’t even give you that satisfaction.”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

“If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you are projecting, Rivaini. Seems you are the one most intrigued by Hawke’s….’assets’…”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

“Of course that is the first conclusion you come to, not the fact that it has anything to do with my height, mind you.” 🤨

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

*sighed* “What are you going on about, Rivaini? You spreading more rumors down at the tavern again?”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

"Good choice, Seeker. I wouldn't want my buddy here leaving too soon. We still have business here." Varric patted Hawke's back.

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

“Great, Hawke. Why not just dare the Old Gods to try and stop you?” Justinia looked at Cassandra. “If you would, please tell Leliana, “I am sorry. I failed you, too.” The spirit flies into the giant monster, incapacitating it, and the party begins the fight against the aspect of the Nightmare.

“I guess things just float whenever they feel like it here. Wonder what’s up there. Or maybe it’s best we never find out.” 🏹

“I don’t know what to tell you. There are a few good ones, but an awful lot of the Wardens I’ve known went crazy.” 🏹

“You saw spiders? I saw creatures corrupted by red lyrium.”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

The Nightmare continues to taunt the party. “Perhaps I should be afraid, facing the most powerful members of the Inquisition.” The Nightmare laughs manically. “Once again, Hawke is in danger because of you, Varric. You found the red lyrium. You brought Hawke here…”  “Just keep talking, Smiley.”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

“What fool filled your mind with such drivel? The only one who grows stronger from your fears is me. But you are a guest here in my home, so by all means, let me return what you have forgotten.” The Nightmare was enjoying taunting the Seeker, trying to weaken her resolve.

110

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

“Ah, we have a visitor. Some silly little girl comes to steal the fear I kindly lifted from her shoulders.” The voice of the Nightmare continues to taunt Cassandra. “You should have thanked me and left your fear where it lay, forgotten. You think that pain will make you stronger?”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Stroud scowled. “A demon that steals fears from the minds of men…after what it did to my fellow Wardens, I pray we fins some way to strike it down.” They continue deeper into the Fade, and a deep voice emanates from an unknown source.

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Varric was silent when he saw his gravestone, continuing forward with the rest of the group. “Sounds like it preys on fear. Stealing people’s memories. That’s low, even for a demon. Memories make us what we are. A monster that takes them away? I don’t want to think about that.”

110

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

“That wasn’t what I meant…” Varric said folding his arms. “I know. But for now, it is the best answer I can give you.” The Divine then looked at Cassandra. “I hope you understand I am trying to help. You should know best of all as my Right Hand, Cassandra.” 🏹

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

— Deep Roads…the Nightmare has fed well.” “You mean the big demon Erimond was trying to bring through?” “Yes,” Justinia confirmed “It’s nearby?” “Yes.” “Well, shit.” Varric looked at the others for their reactions. “Okay, so…how do we kill this thing?” 🏹

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

“I don’t think they want us to go that way….” Varric retreived Bianca from his back and loaded one of his bolt arrows in the chamber. “Then let us show them we are not to be messed with.” Stroud lunged forward and attacked the demon, his sword not making contact as it went directly through it. 🏹

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

"Is this really what it’s like when you dream? How do you people ever sleep? Remember last time we ended up in the Fade, Hawke?"

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

“What? Didn’t get your fair share of them back in the underground tunnels of Lowtown and the docks in Kirkwall?”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Varric groaned and opened his eyes, rubbing his head. He'd landed on top of his crossbow in The Fade. “Where the Ancestors are we? If I didn't know any better, it looks like..." 🏹

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

“He’s my best friend, of course I’m looking out for him too. I’m not letting him go that easy, we’ve been through too much shit over the years.”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

“Right? You’d think he would have learned by now.”

-- around Hawke. The dwarf made his way over to him and patted his shoulder, pulling his arm to help him back up. "Shit, Hawke. Don't scare me like that. You can't get away from me that easily." 🏹

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Varric gasped when he saw Hawke was overwhelmed by enemy forces. "Hawke! Hold on!" He pushed through the enemy with all his might, his crossbow loaded and fired once he broke through to an opening. As he reloaded Bianca, he through down some caltrops and a poisonous gas grenade to clear a path --

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

“Holy shit….careful, Hawke. You don’t wanna piss her off. Ancestors know I’ve had my fair share of the Seeker’s wrath.” Now that the path was clear, they made their way to the next level of the fortress. Varric shot his crossbow bolts at his archer counterparts shooting from atop the battlements.

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

“I’ll cover you, Seeker! Keep on doing what you’re doing, don’t mind me. Bianca’s got it covered!”

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

"Understandable. Now that you mention it, you and Aveline do have a lot in common. Suppose that makes sense since Hawke tried to flirt with her a while ago." He chuckled. "She was so busy as Captain of the Guard at the time she didn't even realize it. They're still good friends, though. We all are."

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

"That's our Isabela, always poking and prodding to get any sort of reaction, that's what she does. You should have seen her and Aveline go after each other back in Kirkwall. Ha! It was quite entertaining watching them bicker whenever we went...well...anywhere. Hawke couldn't help but laugh, too."

Varric Tethras 🏹 🪶 @varrichousetethras.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

“Yeah….she does that….” “You can tell we had a blast back in Kirkwall.”
