Tears poured from her eyes, and she gripped his hand tightly. He was covered in blood, both his and many others. His body was cold, and she knew he had long since past on. "I should have been there..." She whispered, regret and despair shining dully within her eyes as she stared down at him. "I, I could have done something! I should have done something!" A sob escaped her, and she let loose a wail of sorrow, collapsing against the body before her.

"Why, why did you make me stay behind?! Why did you leave me?!" She screamed, crying into his bloody chest. "You promised we would do this together! You, you weren't supposed to die! You were never supposed to leave me!"

It felt as if she was suffocating from the pain that plagued her. Memories of the time they had spent together ran through her mind. The last words she had spoken to him were of hate as he forbade her from going into battle. She regretted every word. She wished she had spent her last moments telling him how much she cared for him. She wished she had told him that she loved him. She wished he had not died.

"Duncan..."


My series of drabbles for Dragon Age. They'll be about whatever I happen to write that I don't want to post on it's own.

This drabble written about Duncan and some woman who loves him. She's no Grey Warden though. Not gonna give much detail on her. After all, I'm still trying to figure her out! She's not very forthcoming with details. ;D
