Hello readers! This is my take on a female being pulled into Dragon age and becoming the Herald of Andraste. She is pretty much me and how i would act if I fell into Thedas. It is as realistic as i can get, then again...there are some things that i cannot make normal...you know...because its a world of magic, demons and fucking dragons!
sorry i'll stop shouting now

I've heard the tales of people being thrown into another world with just the clothes on their backs. Silly nonsense, I always thought. How wrong I was. Why was I wrong? Well that is because I became one of these people.
I don't remember what I was doing before I was dragged away, walking home, or perhaps I was home, I'm not too sure. After that my memories become even more empty, if that is possible. The last, or first thing I remember is waking up in a strange cloudy place, surrounded by green fog that made my skin crawl. The first thing I thought was that I died and went to hell, but then I thought it was too green to be hell. The next thing I knew I was racing up a steep set of stairs because giant fucking demon spiders were trying to kill me. I have no idea why I was trying to reach for a white glowing woman, but her outstretched hand made me feel that she was safe…well, safer than giant spiders that is. I grabbed her hand then, nothing. Everything went black and I lost all consciousness.
Moving from a hazy green hell to what looked like an old prison was a bit jarring for me. That and the agonizing throbbing I felt in my left hand was fraying my nerves. I looked down and gasped, my hand was glowing! Fucking glowing! The door to this murky prison swung open and an angry woman stormed in, her murderous eyes trained solely on me. Her outfit was strange, like she came straight here from a medieval event. Her scar on her cheek made her seem more intimidating if that was possible.
Behind this intimidating woman followed another intimidating woman. Though she appeared outwardly calm, it was not hard to sense her anger.
"Tell me why we shouldn't kill you now. The Conclave is destroyed. Everyone who attended is dead. Except for you." The murderous woman said darkly, I could see her hand was itching to grab the sword she had beside her.
I looked up at her in confusion "What are you talking about, what is The Conclave?" I decided to not think about dead people, it would make this a lot more frustrating and maddening than it already was.
The woman glared at me and scoffed "do not lie to me, how do you not know what the Conclave is when you were found in said place?"
"I believe she is sincere in her confusion Cassandra" the other woman said plainly.
"Do not be fooled Leliana." Cassandra growled "tell me why you did this, why you were found where all others are dead."
My confused expression turned to anger "you think i'm responsible?" I hissed out.
"Explain this!" Cassandra leant down and grabbed manacles chained to my wrists and held them up as the green glow flares to life again.
She dropped my arm just as I replied "I-I… can't."
"What do you mean, you can't?" she demanded.
"I don't know what that is or how it got there."
Cassandra narrowed her eyes into slits whilst she roared, "You're lying!" she moved to strike me but the woman who I now knew was named Leliana grabbed her wrist and held her back.
"We need her, Cassandra."
I think I let my anger for everything that happened, and the fact that this beastly woman was about to slap me, get the best of me because I growled, "Let me go. Whatever you think I did, I'm innocent, you can't condemn someone for being an only survivor."
"Do you remember what happened? How this began?" Leliana asked calmly.
I tried to force my mind to clear the fog whilst I answered, "I remember running. Things were chasing me. And then… a woman?"
"A woman?"
I continued "She reached out to me, but then…"
Cassandra stepped up and stopped my description "Go to the forward camp, Leliana. I will take her to the rift." Leliana nodded and left the cell.
"What did happen?" I asked as Cassandra pulled to my feet and replaced the manacles with rope. Great, just fucking great.
"It will be easier to show you." was all she said.
Cassandra took me outside. The moment the green light shined on me I looked up to see a massive split in the sky, like the glow on my hand.
"We call it the Breach. It's a massive rift into the world of demons that grows larger with each passing hour. It's not the only such rift, just the largest. All were caused by the explosion at the conclave."
"The fuck? Demons? Are you shitting me?" I thought that if this was a dream and my hand was glowing, then demons should be real as well.
Cassandra glared at me "yes, as vulgar as you put it, you are correct."
"A-and an explosion can cause that?" I was so fucking confused.
She nodded "This one did. Unless we act, the breach may grow until it swallows the world."
The Breach growed and for some reason that caused my scar to flare, I groaned loudly and fell to the floor in pain. Cassandra looked down at me and said, "Each time the Breach expands, your mark spreads… and it is killing you. It may be the key to stopping this but there isn't much time."
I nodded and said, "So if I do what you want, will I live through it?" I was hoping that if I helped I could eventually go home and get rid of this fucking annoying glowing scar.
Cassandra helped me to my feet and pulled me through the snowy town, I noticed how everyone I walked passed was glaring at me hatefully, I looked at the warrior woman "They have decided your guilt. They need it. The people of Haven mourn our Most Holy, Divine Justinia, head of the Chantry. The Conclave was hers. It was a chance for peace between mages and templars. She brought their leaders together. Now, they are dead." Soldiers opened the gate at the edge of town and we walked out. "We lash out, like the sky. But we must think beyond ourselves, as she did. Until the breach is sealed." She pulled out a dagger and turned to me "There will be a trial. I can promise no more." It was a relief when she cut the ropes binding my hands "Come. It is not far."
"Where are you taking me?" I asked as I followed her up the winding path.
"Your mark must be tested on something smaller than the Breach."
The bridge we crossed was covered in rubble, crates, and various other forms of debris, all caused by the chaos surrounding me. I notice three wounded people to the left of me as I walked past and I showed a saddened expression, I lived in a world where gore and wounds like what those soldiers had are hidden, or fake, I've never actually seen any form of horrible atrocities before. I really don't know how to deal with this.
I was forced out of my depressing thoughts when I heared Cassandra shout, "Open the gate! We are headed into the valley!" the soldiers manning the large gate nodded and did as she asked, we headed out and walked through a winding path
Three men ran by and headed downhill whilst shouting, "Maker, it's the end of the world!" that does not make me feel any easier, and neither does the string of corpses following along the path. They are incredibly gruesome so I began to wonder how horrible these demons are. As we reach the top of the hill, the scar flares painfully and I collapsed to the ground, holding onto my wrist tightly in hopes of cutting off the circulation. Maybe if my hand feels numb it wont hurt.
Cassandra took notice of my pain and waited for it to subside before helping me up and speaking, "The pulses are coming faster now. The larger the Breach grows, the more rifts appear, the more demons we face."
"How did I survive the blast?" I was curious, from what I gathered it should have killed me too yet there I was…yay.
"They said you… stepped out of a rift, then fell unconscious. They say a woman was in the rift behind you. No one knows who she was. Everything farther in the valley was laid waste, including the Temple of Sacred Ashes. I suppose you'll see soon enough."
I frowned "I should be dead, everything that has happened should be impossible" I muttered to myself, if Cassandra heard me speak she decided to ignore it and move on.
I had thought it would be a normal and sort of safe walk, considering there were guards and people with weapons everywhere we looked. What I did not account for was a meteor hitting the bridge we were walking on, everyone but me and my captor were either killed by the meteor or crushed by the bridge. The two survivors, Cassandra and I, tumbled to the icy ground below just as another meteor crashed down before us, only this time the meteor was something I had never seen before. The creatures that looked to be cloaked in slimy, skin looking cloaks were staring at us with their one eye, the aura they gave off was terrifying me. I couldn't move, this was a fucking demon! WHAT THE SHIT!
"Stay behind me!" Cassandra yelled as she rushed off with her sword and shield raised high, no ounce of fear showed on her face. It was as if she had killed many of those creatures, which may not be that far from the truth.
As she faught her demons and I stare at her in awe and fear, a second Shade formed before me. I panicked, having no knowledge of how to fight, let alone defend myself against these things. My martial arts training I did was not going to help me there. I looked around me for a weapon of some kind to help me as the demon dragged itself closer to me, it seemed those demons don't have feet. I looked to my left and noticed a large stick, a staff I think. It had what resembled a mace placed on the top and since I don't know any magic it had to do. The only thing I thought to do was bash the creature on its head as many times as I could, maybe I could give it brain damage. I was once again, wrong. The creature wacked the staff out of my hands and went to take a swipe at me with its large claws, I squeaked and fell back onto the icy ground "shit shit shit! No!" I brought my hands up in front of me, it was stupid of course but I had nothing else to do.
A screech in front of me made my eyes snap open, which I had no idea I closed. I watched in shock as the demon in front of me was writing in pain as it was burnt to a crisp. I stared at it dumbly as it turned to ash and its remains scattered to the floor "I…what?" I forced my wobbly legs to stand and turned to Cassandra who was pointing her sword at me.
"You are a mage?" she asked, a hint of disdain lacing her voice.
"What's a mage?" I asked breathlessly, what happened to me before was still in my head, was a mage like the class you can play in World Of Warcraft?
"What's a ma – what do you mean? I watched you shoot fire from your hands" she stared at me with dark eyes.
"I did?" I looked down at my shaking hands "I-I've never done that b-before"
"We can discuss this later, perhaps the scar has triggered your mage abilities" she picked up the staff I had dropped "you may be terrible at using it as a weapon but it is better than being unarmed, I cannot protect you, and I cannot expect you to be defenceless." She sighed deeply "I should remember that you agreed to come willingly." She pulled out a small pouch and handed it to me "Take these potions. Maker knows what we will face."
"Thank you" I nodded to her and take the pouch, I looped the long leather handle around my belt loop attacked to my black jeans. Once I was done I hurried after Cassandra "Where are all your soldiers?" I asked.
"At the forward camp, or fighting. We are on our own, for now." She said solemnly. We trudged through the ice and demons, I stayed back as I had no idea how I conjured the fire and let Cassandra fight. We had managed to get pass the small horde and were heading up a flight of stairs when we heard the sound of sword clashes and various other sounds "We're getting close to the rift. You can hear the fighting."
"Who's fighting?" I'm hoping its people who won't die and can help us get to safety.
"You'll see soon. We must help them." She pulled out her sword and shield and rushed up the last of the steps, I followed shortly behind.
At the top of the stairs, Cassandra and I rushed into the fight. The soldiers that were fighting were slaughtered, only a small muscled man shooting from a really cool crossbow and a tall, thin bald man shooting spells remained. He made it look so effortless, maybe he could help me. I didn't think on it too much as straight after the fight was done the bald man rushed to me and pulled me to a large glowing thing in the hair "Quickly, before more come through!" he pulled my hand with the scar on it up to the rift and held it there as I struggled. The pain was excrutiating, it felt like someone was trying to pull my hand off my body, I bit my lip as I tried not to scream or whimper in pain. The tall man must have seen something change as he pulled my arm back which caused the green thing to close.
"What the hell did you do?" I demanded him as I clutched my glowing hand to my chest. This man was handsome, like fucking crazy sexy. I don't go for bald guys but this guy was…yummy, his eyes were intense, and the ears! He must be an elf or something like that, I'm not sure, I was only guessing here.
"I did nothing. The credit is yours." He gave me a kind smile but it did not reach his eyes. Oh, so he was a polite guy huh, doesn't really care but acts polite and kind so no one will pay him too much attention. I can respect that.
I looked down at the scar, smiling at it "So I can help" I felt terrible that I was standing still whilst everyone fought.
The elf seemed pleased and approved of what I said "Whatever magic opened the Breach in the sky also placed that mark upon your hand. I theorized the mark might be able to close the rifts that have opened in the Breach's wake – and it seems I was correct."
"Meaning it could also close the Breach itself." Cassandra looked happy, maybe she was thinking I was finally useful too.
"Possibly." The elf said to her before he turned back to me "It seems you hold the key to our salvation."
"Good to know! Here I thought we'd be ass-deep in demons forever." I looked to the small man who was walking over to us as he put his crossbow on his back "Varric Tethras, rogue, storyteller, and occasionally unwelcome tagalong." Varric winked at Cassandra, who scowled.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Danica Fey, Nice crossbow."
Varric smiled "Ah, isn't she? Bianca and I have been through a lot together."
"You named your crossbow Bianca?" I asked, I've heard other people called things names too, I used to name the cars I owned back in my world.
"Of course. And she'll be great company in the valley." I nodded in relief.
"So, I closed the rift. What now?"
"Now we go to meet Leliana." Cassandra replied.
"What a great idea!" its seemed that Varric liked to annoy and tease Cassandra and Cassandra hates him.
"Absolutely not. Your help is appreciated, Varric, but…"
Varric interrupted the shield woman "Have you been in the valley lately, Seeker? Your soldiers aren't in control anymore. You need me." Cassandra replied with a disgusted noise.
The elf stepped up and dissolved Cassandras anger, more like placated it "My name is Solas, if there are to be introductions. I'm pleased to see you still live." He gave me a smile that made me want to melt, god, this is what happens when you have a dry season for more than 3 months.
"He means, 'I kept that mark from killing you while you slept.'" Varric chimed in.
"Thank you" I said to Solas, who nodded back "You seem to know a great deal about this mark."
"Like you, Solas is an apostate." Cassandra said.
"Yeaaa, I don't know what an apostate is" everyone looked at me weirdly "Oh come on guys seriously? I'm not from your world, look at my clothes" I was wearing a shirt that said 'fuck you, you fucking fuck' for Christ sake, if that doesn't tip them off I don't know what will.
"I did not want to assume…" Cassandra trailed off "I have never seen a Dalish elf before, I thought it was their style."
I blanched "What…elf?" my hands snapped up to my ears and I gasped, my ears were pointed like Solas' "Holy cow!" I must have looked really strange, fondling my ears.
"We have no time to talk on such matters" Solas cut in, he too felt confused by this woman, there were powers at play here that he could not hope to understand in one conversation alone.
"He's right" I continued "there are demons falling from the sky, we may be overrun before we reach safety."
Cassandra nodded "Understood. We must get to the forward camp quickly."
"Well, Bianca's excited!" Varric shouted happily.
Cassandra motioned to a path obscured by a broken fence "This way, down the bank. The road ahead is blocked."
Solas nodded "We must move quickly." Immediately after we began walking down the rubble path. We continue down a steep, narrow path. More corpses lined the path. So much death, I thought sadly.
"Demons ahead!" Solas yelled as he brought out his staff "stay behind me Danica" he ordered, I nodded.
"Glad you brought me now, Seeker?" Varric taunted, he was ignored by the shield maiden but you could see she slashed the demons harder. The demons were quickly dealt with, I wished I could have helped.
Farther along the frozen riverbed there was a burning cabin on the west side of the river. "So… are you innocent?" Varric asked me as we walked up more stairs, I'm glad I kept up my cardio, otherwise I would be panting on the floor.
"I'm as innocent as a newborn in this regards, then again, I don't remember what happened." I say solemnly, maybe I did do something wrong. I probably did something by accident, being in a new world might have frazzled me.
Varric snorted and said, "That'll get you every time. Should have spun a story."
"That's what you would have done." Cassandra shot back.
"It's more believable, and less prone to result in premature execution."
"Well…when you put it like that..." I trailed off as Varric chuckled.
We fought more demons blocking our way before we finally reached another rip in the air "Another rift!" Cassandra shouted.
"We must seal it, quickly!" Solas shouted as he looked to me "stay near Cassandra, she will lead you to the rift so you may close it" I nodded and stood behind but far enough away from the shield maiden. The elf threw what looked to be a barrier around me which helped deter the demons, I was of some use when a demon got too close to me I bashed them over the head with my staff mace which disoriented them enough for either Solas or Varric to take them down "Hurry! Use the mark!"
Once I was close enough I repeated the action Solas made me do to the last rift and stood my ground, I ignored the pain and used all my strength to pull back, shutting the rift forever. Then again, when one door closes another one opens.
"The rift is gone! Open the gate!" Cassandra shouted to the guards on the other side of the gate.
"Right away, Lady Cassandra!" a soldier shouted back.
"We are clear for the moment. Well done." Solas walked up to my side and gave me a smile, I nodded back at him in thanks.
"Whatever that thing on your hand is, it's useful." Varric said on my other side, they seemed to become like guards to me, I was needed to close the rifts but it was comforting to know that these two powerful men wanted to keep me safe, even if it was to save the world.
As we approached, I overheard Leliana and a man in what I think is a religious garb, arguing "We must prepare the soldiers!" Leliana shouted angrily at the man.
"We will do no such thing." The man shot back harshly.
"The prisoner must get to the Temple of Sacred Ashes. It is our only chance!" I like Leliana, she seemed nice, I wish she didn't call me prisoner though. You're a prisoner when you do something wrong and I had done no such thing.
"You have already caused enough trouble without resorting to this exercise in futility."
"I have caused trouble?"
"You, Cassandra, the Most Holy – haven't you all done enough already?"
"You're not in command here!"
"Enough! I will not have it!" the man looked over to me and sneered "Ah, here they come."
Leliana turned around and looked relieved "You made it. Chancellor Roderick, this is–"
Roderick stopped her "I know who she is. As Grand Chancellor of the Chantry, I hereby order you to take this criminal to Val Royeaux to face execution." I glared at him nastily, I fucking hate religion and it seems this world is ruled by it.
"'Order me'? You are a glorified clerk. A bureaucrat!" Cassandra hissed at him.
"And you are a thug, but a thug who supposedly serves the Chantry!"
Leliana looked offended on Cassandras behalf as she says, "We serve the Most Holy, Chancellor, as you well know."
"Justinia is dead! We must elect her replacement, and obey her orders on the matter."
"Don't talk about me like I'm not here." I snapped at the short man, he was in no way threatening and if this was in my world I would have punched him right in the face.
"You shouldn't even be here!" he snapped.
"I know! But falsely accusing me of homicide is wrong! You have no evidence and no power over me!" the man looked like he was going to step back but chose to ignore me instead, the others looked impressed but said nothing.
"Call a retreat, Seeker. Our position here is hopeless." he said to Cassandra.
"We can stop this before it's too late." She replied.
"How? You won't survive long enough to reach the temple, even with all your soldiers." Roderick challenged.
"We must get to the temple. It's the quickest route."
Leliana spoke up, "But not the safest. Our forces can charge as a distraction while we go through the mountains."
"We lost contact with an entire squad on that path. It's too risky." Cassandra shot back.
Roderick seemed like he was losing his patients, and frankly, so was I "Listen to me. Abandon this now, before more lives are lost." As if to prove his point, the breach expanded and my hand flashed.
Cassandra noticed this and looked to me "How do you think we should proceed?" she asked.
I was surprised that she wanted my opinion but I guessed since I had the mark I was the one to make the decision so I thought about this carefully, going through the Mountain path could be dangerous, who knows what happened up there, they lost their men, who's to say we won't lose our lives as well. Charging seemed to be the most practical option "I say we charge. I won't survive long enough for your trial. Whatever happens, happens now."
Cassandra nodded and said, "Leliana. Bring everyone left in the valley. Everyone."
"On your head be the consequences, Seeker." Roderick said to us as we passed him, I was satisfied that nothing he said changed anything.
We pushed our way through more demons, well, more like the others did whilst I stood back and occasionally hit a demon when they got close to me. Soon enough we managed to meet up with the soldiers and we helped them to close the rifts. "Sealed, as before. You are becoming quite proficient at this."
"Thank you Solas, its all in the wrist" I smiled at his deep chuckle.
"Let's hope it works on the big one." Varric said shortly after, I nodded as a man jogged up to us. He was quite handsome aswell, he had a nice mop or curly hair that looked like it had gel combed through it, he wore a cool as set of armour that suited him nicely.
"Lady Cassandra, you managed to close the rift? Well done." He had a really nice voice, though not a rich and smooth as the elf standing beside me.
Cassandra nodded at the man and said, "Do not congratulate me, Commander. This is the prisoner's doing."
"Is it? I hope they're right about you. We've lost a lot of people getting you here."
I sighed at his slightly rough tone, I understood his pain at losing his men but it didn't make me feel any better about people dying on my behalf "I hope they're right too."
The commander nodded, satisfied with my words "The way to the temple should be clear. Leliana will try to meet you there."
"Then we'd best move quickly. Give us time, Commander." Cassandra said determinedly.
"Maker watch over you – for all our sakes." The commander turned and helped an injured soldier hobble away. So they call god Maker here, not beating around the bush, are they? Then again neither does my world. God is a God, Maker made them.
"Let's get this done" I say to the group, who nodded silently and followed after me, weapons still drawn.
"The Temple of Sacred Ashes." Solas said after a moment of silence.
"What's left of it." Varric replied, looking around at the scorched area.
"That is where you walked out the Fade and our soldiers found you. They said a woman was in the rift behind you. No one knows who she was." I wasn't listening to what Cassandra said to me, I was too shocked and on the brink of tears as I stared at the hell before me.
There was a bunch of burned corpses and scattered bones. I counted at least 30 burned corpses, 30 skulls among the scattered bones, plus one relatively intact corpse. I'm sure there are more corpses in other areas.
I wobbled slightly and grabbed onto the closest thing to me, which happened to be Solas.
The elf stiffened when he felt a hand grab onto his arm, he looked to the small elf and frowned at her horrified expression, she truly did not remember what happened. And judging by her sincere expression, she was not the cause of this. That eased him somewhat, that the mark was not in the hand of some cruel, heartless being. He placed his hand over hers and gave it a reassuring squeeze.
I sighed deeply and gave Solas a nod of thanks at his gesture of comfort. I followed Cassandra to the railing and stared at the Breach. It was massive! Larger now that we are closer.
"The Breach is a long way up." Varric commented as he too stared at the massive tear in the sky.
Leliana approached us from behind with some soldiers "You're here! Thank the Maker." She said in relief.
Cassandra looked at Leliana and said, "Leliana, have your men take up positions around the temple."
Leliana nodded and walked away to give directions. Cassandra then turned to me "This is your chance to end this. Are you ready?"
"Is one ever truly ready for something like this" I said back "I may not be truly ready but I will do it."
"That is a saying that possess more wisdom than it implies." Solas looked surprised and impressed.
Cassandra nodded and said, "Then let's find a way down. And be careful."
Leliana accompanied us as we made our way down to the rift, I stumbled over large chucks of stone but with the help of Varric and Solas I made it down without injury. As we got closer, we heard echoes surrounding us.
"Now is the hour of our victory. Bring forth the sacrifice." A deep and sinister voice sent shivers down my spine.
"What are we hearing?" Cassandra asked, looking around for the source of the sound.
"At a guess: The person who created the Breach." Solas replied.
Varric chimed in when he saw red glowing crystals climbing the walls "You know this stuff is red lyrium, Seeker."
"I see it, Varric." Cassandra shot back, though she was not angry at him, warier of the crystals than anything. I wonder what's so dangerous about it? I would have to ask later.
"But what's it doing here?" Varric sounded frustrated.
"Magic could have drawn on lyrium beneath the temple, corrupted it…" Solas said to the short man, which I had learned from Cassandra that he is a dwarf when she used it as an insult. Where's his beard? Did it fall onto his chest?
"It's evil. Whatever you do don't touch it." The dwarf said it more to me than anyone else, he noticed my curiosity.
"Keep the sacrifice still." The sinister voiced returned.
"Someone help me!" a woman's voice shouted desperately.
Cassandra gasped and said, "That is Divine Justinia's voice!"
We finally reach the end of the path and down some stone stairs into the ruins, with the help of Solas, I jumped down into a pit where more corpses and skulls lay. We approached the rift and my hand flared.
"Someone help me!"
"What's going on here?" wait, that was me. That's creepy.
Cassandra whirled around and faced me, the murderous look I saw on her face when I first met her returned "That was your voice. Most Holy called out to you. But…"
She was interrupted by a flash of white light, followed by ghostly images of what you thought was Divine Justinia floating while being held in place by red energy wrapped around her arms. A large dark figure with glowing red eyes loomed over her. My eyes widened when I saw myself walk into the area.
"What's going on here?" I repeated.
The image of Justinia looked to me "Run while you can! Warn them!"
"We have an intruder." The image of a monstrous form looked to me, my ghostly image "Slay the elf!" there was another flash of white light and the ghostly images disappeared.
Cassandra began shouting at me "You were there! Who attacked? And the Divine, is she…? Was this vision true? What are we seeing?"
"I don't remember!" I snapped at her, I was freaked out and I did not need this brutish woman yelling at me.
Solas stepped up and stood between us, standing closer to me so that if Cassandra attacked he could knock her away. He would not let the woman's temper kill the only person who could save Thedas "Echoes of what happened here. The Fade bleeds into this place." He replied to Cassandra, hoping she would calm herself "This rift is not sealed, but it is closed… albeit temporarily. I believe with the mark, the rift can be opened and then sealed properly and safely. However, opening the rift will likely attract attention from the other side."
"That means demons. Stand ready!" Cassandra's earlier anger at me was now focused on the danger ahead.
Soldiers and archer stood around us, all at the ready. Solas motioned me to open the rift. With a mighty sigh I brought my hand out and tore open the scar in the air. Instead of a few demons, out came a huge fucken behemoth that scared the shit out of me "Danica! Get back!" Solas roared to me, I did as he was told and rushed to his side as Cassandra rushed in, gaining the demons attention.
"Now!" all the soldiers and archers started to attack "We must strip its defences! Wear it down!" I watched helplessly as many soldiers and archers were slaughtered by demons and the behemoth, I stood with Solas and Varric, a barrier casted around me. I was able to be of some help as many demons came to attack me, I was getting better at swinging my mace staff and hitting the monsters, I had even managed to kill a few of them with the force of my swing. I still hadn't manage to find out how in the world I casted magic, hopefully if I survive Solas can help me. Every time I could get in I raised my hand and disrupted the rift which disoriented the big demon, this gave the opportunity to attack him as his shield was gone.
"Now! Seal the rift!" Cassandra shouted to me the moment the big demon fell, I raced in with Solas hot on my heels. I raised my arm and awaited the pain. It was the most painful thing I have ever felt, I thought the smaller rifts hurt like a bitch. This felt like all forms of torture were being done to me. I fought through the pain, ignoring my loud scream I hid behind a roar. With the last of my strength I pulled back and closed the breach.
All my strength left me and the world around me went black. I did my part, if this was a dream and I would wake up, or it is real and I die. I'm happy, I did my part and hopefully the people are safe.
Please tell me how that was, I changed some of the dialogue to suite my character and the conversations that she would have to have progress in this story. I will put you in the next Author note if you can guess who her romantic partner is going to be? aha
See you next time
