This is AU and rated M just because parts of the story are.

DISCLAMER: BIOWARE owns DRAGON AGE Characters. The Warden is mine.

For you people who nag about grammar and spelling. I am not out to be some kind of author. In addition, so you know I do have dyslexia so that makes things worse.

Morrigan took quill to parchment and began to take account of her time with the one person who slain the archdemon.

Journal Entry 1: My first encounter with her.

I for some time watched the woman from the safety of shadows of the Korcari Wilds. I watched as her and her companions wonder the Wilds. They are in search of something yet I have not a clue as to what it could be.

None has ventured so deep into my Wilds for quite some time. There is nothing here for them except darkspawn and old Grey Warden ruins.

As I watch, her and her companions make their way to the chest that once contained old treaties. She is the one who approaches the chest, peered inside, and found nothing. I now know why they have come into the Wilds. They are Grey Wardens in search of the treaties left in the chest so long ago.

I quietly approach them before I speak a word I allow them to sense my presents. As I suspected she did and she slowly turns and stands to face me. She matches every step I take with her own. I then engage in conversation with her. I taunt her first in my usual way.

"Well, well, what have we here? Are you a vulture, I wonder? A scavenger poking amidst a corpse whose bones bones have been long since cleaned? Or merely an intruder come into these darkspawn filled Wilds of mine in search of, easy prey?"

Two of her companions where afraid I would turn them into toads and put them in a pot. The one called Alistair however, was afraid of barbarians swooping down upon them. I informed them after I had my fun that my mother was the one who has the treaties they look for.

I then led them to my home so they could speak with my mother and retrieve the treaties. After mother gave them, the treaties they left and I didn't think I would see her or her companions again.

Morrigan did not know it at the time but that day in the Wilds would not be the last she sees of the woman and her one companion Alistair. The woman Morrigan had met at time that day was not a Grey Warden as of yet. Later that night just before the moonrise the joining had began and in that moment then and only then one can become a Grey Warden. Not all who went through with the joining would survive. After the joining, the fight broke out between the darkspawn and King Cailan's army. In the mist of it orders were given to light a beacon and in doing so that one single event trust Morrigan, Alistair and a freshly made Warden together.

Journal Entry 2: A night later.

It was just about a night or so later from our first encounter that I found myself in her presents again. My Mother to my surprise had rescued her and Alistair from a tower filled with darkspawn.

While in the tower trying to locate and light the beacon she was greatly wounded by the darkspawn. Mother made it my task to look after her and tend to her wounds.

That was also the first time I realized she was an elf. It didn't dawn on me the first time around. Her hair was down and covered her ears. The markings on her face were not strange to me as many Chased Folk have makings similar to hers.

She has white hair and deep bright green eye that shimmer almost cat like.

Mother has said she peers to be one of the people. So a Dalish elf is she. How strange for one to venture outside of ones clan and become a Grey Warden.

From that, moment on Morrigan would become a traveling companion of The Warden and Alistair. She knew a little of things to come but most things were even a surprise to her as well.

Journal Entry 3: Lothering Meting Leliana and Sten the Qunari.

We left the Wilds and made our way to Lothering. On our way, we came across a dog in which The Warden decided to keep it. I made a witty commit about keeping it.

"We now have a dog and Alistair is still the dumbest one in the party."

I did however get a chuckle from The Warden. We arrived at Lothering, bandits met us, and they were quickly dispersed, by outwitting them.

As we were in the village, we came to a cage that held a Qunari named Sten.

For some reason The Warden decided to not only free Sten and then take him with us. We decided to send Sten ahead with the dog that was now named Volker.

We gather some supplies and some coin from doing task that was listed on the Chanters Board. Before we left then we went into the tavern and were stopped by a group of Loghain men that were looking for any surviving Grey Wardens.

There was a fight and we let them go do to some persuasive talk from a Chantry Sister named Leliana. Some how she also managed to talk her way to join us.

"Perhaps your skill was cracked worse than Mother thought."

I got a chuckle from Alistair on that one. Alistair also made a commit about it. Something about more crazy and being all filled up. I however didn't find that funny because it was applied towards me.

So now as things would have it Morrigan finds herself a traveling companion for not only The Warden, Alistair and a dog. Also now, she has to travel with a Qunari and a Chantry Sister who is not a Sister at all. Morrigan also found herself gaining respect for The Warden. They were camping and traversing all over, Thedas just to get people to honor the treaties made so long ago. It was some time that Leliana reviled that she was in fact an Orlesian bard. The Chantry was a way Leliana was making amends with her life or so she said.

Journal Entry 4: Two weeks later at camp.

I have been watching my companions closely over the last few weeks. Sten is quiet and lost in a way as if someone took his soul. He is agitated about something that of which I don't know. Alistair is good at keeping watch. However, he could use some help in making food that is more tasteful and grayish brown in color. Also, Alistair is the senior Grey Warden but he would prefer to fallow instead of lead. Giving how he was after my Mother found him and the eleven Grey Warden. I am glad that he does not lead. Alistair is not one to be consistent in sticking to a decisions wither it be easy or hard. An example of that would be what he was going to make for tonight stew. As for Leliana, she is a bard and has been trying her best to gather information about Sten and me. As for the Elvan Grey Warden, she is much to my surprise somewhat like me. She studies us also and keeps mostly to herself. She however is the only one in our little group that I do not know the name of. It is not for the lack of trying on my part. There is not much I have been able to get out of her. Alistair has also been no help. All I can get out of him is that the Warden Duncan that found her in tainted ruins deep in the Brecilian Forest. Alistair asked her name once but she refuses to speak of anything about her or her life. So for now I refer to her as Warden. It is most unfair that she knows much about us be we know little to nothing of her.

While out on a journey to the camp of another Delish Clan. The group was ambushed and an assassination attempt was mad on the Wardens lives. In the process, the Antivan Crows Assassin Zevran was recruited into the group. Morrigan was sure that this business with the treaties could be handled differently. Morrigan was also surprised that much of there time was helping people for whatever reason. Not only that but, it seamed that the Warden had a habit of taking in strays.
