    Summary

    This is a continuation of 'In the face of your light'
    | Part 1 can be found here! |

    ---

    A year after Corypheus’ defeat and the revelations of Lavellan’s past, the world continues to turn.

    But the journey is far from over. Lavellan now faces the ripples of the changes he’s made and the waves that they can become, while an old friend returns, challenging everything he knows of the world and of himself.

    But their old friend doesn’t return quite right and ancient enemies stir from the shadows.

    Hopefully, this time, things will come together instead of falling apart.

    Summary

    Every story’s got an ending. This one just came a little earlier than I’d planned.

    Rook wonders if Solas feels the same way as the Dread Wolf’s closes — as his new one with Ellana Lavellan cracks open to its first page.

    It was a good ending — a poetic ending — the Inquisitor taming an impossibly ancient grief to walk hand in hand with her lover into the Fade.

    Forever bound together; forever sharing the love they’d built between them — unshakable and iron willed and impossible to break in spite of the decade that hung between their last meeting and the flare of green that accompanies their dematerialization.

    It was nice, and it was peaceful, and Rook has been left standing in the ashes of a blighted Minrathous — broken, bleeding, and bitter.

    In the moments following the defeat of Elgar'nan and the redemption of the Dread Wolf, Rook is dragged into another unwanted, unpredictable magical shit show. After being given a vague order and an even vaguer plan, he's thrown into the past — much further than anticipated.

    A time travel fix-it fic written by an author obsessed with dashes and italics.

    Summary

    There was a time when Mahanon Lavellan failed to save the world.

    He died trying, but got a second chance.

    It just turns out knowing the future isn't as much help when you're the one trying to change it.

    Summary

    They call it the Great Filter. Civilizations rise, they discover the miracle of Element Zero, and they unknowingly accelerate the decay of their own suns. The Reapers aren't just destroyers; they are the firebreak, arriving to harvest advanced life before it burns the universe down to the last star.

    For Shepard, the invasion manifests as more than just a war—it is a physical agony. The sky over Earth has turned violet, gravity is unspooling, and his Vanguard abilities are no longer a weapon, but a liability. In an atmosphere thick with dark energy, every Biotic Charge risks tearing a hole in reality and burning him out from the inside.
    Shepard can’t charge his way out of the heat death of the universe.

    Reunited with Kaidan Alenko, Shepard finds that their biotic resonance is the only thing capable of quieting the static screaming in his blood. Together, they must convince a fractured galaxy that the Reapers are merely a symptom of a much larger disease—and find a way to fix the sky before the lights go out forever.

    The Dark Energy Ending rewrite.

    Vanguard!Shepard, Sentinel!Kaidan, Biotic Resonance, Dark Energy Lore, Entropy, and mShenko romance as the center of gravity.

    Summary

    "Here lay the world in ruins, littered with the remains of once mighty armies and terrible cities. Brought to its knees by the Dread Wolf. The Dread Wolf, who was all pride and no wisdom, all guilt and no atonement. "

    ---

    Inquisitor Lavellan saved the world, lost the world, then saved it again - loved and lost, loved and lost. Cruel joke upon cruel joke piled atop each other under the disguise of destiny and fate, until the curtains fell on him and Solas with their blades piercing the other's heart. It was a disgustingly poetic end.

    And because his luck was rotten, he wakes at the moment before it all began.

    A second chance or a second doom? Lavellan wasn't sure which he preferred.

    ---

    "Uncover the past, little raven, the Wolf is not the liar here. Those who walk the shadows never leave."
