Wise Delegation

Prologue

Upon receiving word from Divine Victoria that the Chantry required a detailed record of the Inquisitor's life before the Breach at the Temple of Sacred Ashes; Josephine requested that she do as they asked for once.

So here she was, writing down in a journal the first twenty-seven years of her life. It was a tedious task, bringing up some awful memories, some bittersweet and some…truly precious.

"Hard at work?"

Anna glanced up, finding her husband walking up the steps to their quarters. He looked exhausted, probably from putting the children to bed.

"Nothing more exhausting than trying to recall the early years of your life," Ana responded with a tired sigh. She put the quill down and stood up, walking towards him and into his open arms. "Just sitting there and writing them down makes it feel like a dream. That none of it had ever happened."

"Like reading one of Varric's novels?" he asked and she chuckled, burying her face into his warm, firm chest.

"Not even Varric can come up with stuff," she murmured, closing her eyes and enveloping herself in his warmth.


For those who read Running Wild which tells the tale of Artemis from her point of view of the whole Inquisition thing, you'd know who Ana is. She'll be the Inquisitor in this tale and I've began writing her version of things unfolding from her view. So the two stories will often interlock with each other but this one is a TrevelyanxCullen fic because Curly needs love.

Anyway, enjoy~!
