Synopsis
“Everything I’ve done was for them… and now, no one can stop me. No one, except, perhaps… her".
For centuries, civilizations have been built upon stories. Some sacred, others forbidden. But every story is a form of power. And every truth, a form of rebellion.
For an entire year, Solas, the Dread Wolf, wandered through the sealed world he himself had created, burdened by the weight of his crimes and convinced that there could be no redemption for what had been born under the shelter of his Veil.
Until he met Elentari: the Herald of Andraste, an elf who embodies the very storm he once helped unleash. She is not merely a spark in the fire. She is burning lightning. And unlike the Evanuris, Elentari walks barefoot among the ruins, weeps with the blood of her kin, and carries the weight of a cause she does not yet fully understand.
Because there is no revolution without loss.
And no freedom without history.

It took me a long time to find the right tone and turn for this story. This is the third time I write about them, and the first time it truly feels like the story moves forward.
Solas is a character who touched something deeply personal in me, a thread of rebellion that runs through my own life.
I always felt I owed him a fic. Though perhaps… I owed it to myself.
Writing this was beautiful. A personal journey, through and through.
This is my little gift to the community, but also, to the apostate I became.
“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”
