Previously:

"That's Divine Justina's voice" yells Cassandra concerned. We pick up the pace and charge down the set stairs that leads to the pit where a few soldiers and Leliana wait on guard.

We notice a rift above them that looks closed but is still pulsating wildly. My hand starts to flare up again and glow similar as we get closer.

"Someone… helps me!" the voice repeats gain.

"What's going on here?" a distorted version of my own voice answers.

"That was your voice. Most Holy called out to you. But…" Cassandra responds quickly but is interrupted by a white light that blinds all of us.

Chapter Four: Where the chaos began

All of us are engulfed by images of what happened at the beginning before the breach came to be. A strange force is holding Divine Justina in the air. A strange shadowy figure with glowing eyes walks towards her. I see myself enter the doorway uttering the same phrase we heard before.

"What's going on here?" I ask looking directly at the being and Justina.

"Run while you can! Warn them!" she begs.

"We have an intruder… Kill her now" he barks as if there were others with us in the room.

Before we could witness anything else the white light brings us back to reality.

"You were there! Who attacked? And the Divine, is she…? Was this vision true? What are we seeing?" frantically stammers Cassandra as she begins to pester me on what happened.

"I already told you… I can't remember…" I try to be reasonable with her.

"Echoes of what happened here. The Fade bleeds into this place…" Solas begins to comment before an argument can flare up between us.

"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" Reports Solas looking in Cassandra and my direction.

I don't respond and look up at the rift getting ready to open it.

"That means demons. Stand ready!" commands Cassandra

I point my hand straight at the breach. The mark pours a green stream which inter twines with the breach and it begins to cause loud noises from the other side as a large demon gets ready to attack us.

"Now!" yells Cassandra as I rip open the rift connecting our world to the fade.

A large demon tears itself through the portal charged with electricity. There are rather large horns on its head and it has small beady eyes. The demon growls as I release my hand and get ready to attack. Cassandra stands guard as I ready my weapons. Arrows are flying through the air landing on the beast trying to pierce its hide but with no avail.

"We must strip its defences! Wear it down!" yells Cassandra.
"Were giving everything we've got. Any ideas?" I yell.

"Use your mark" Solas retorts

"Quickly! Disrupt the rift!" she yells back stabbing one of the minor demons that followed the beast through.

I raise my hand up again and magic starts to interact with the rift as it did before disrupting the portal for only a moment between our worlds. It weakens the main demon causing it to bend drops to its knees.

"The demon is vulnerable – now!" commands Casandra as we assault the demon with everything we've got.

I release my grasp on the rift, charging past Cassandra and I try jumping towards the creatures shin to try and immobilize it for as long as possible before it powers up again. I wasn't quick enough and the demon throws me to one side. As Leliana and Varric continue to fire bolts at the creatures head.

"I've got you" comments Solas as he helps me up. I narrowly dodge the whip as it slashes straight towards us. I nod in response to show my gratitude and charge forward again slashing wildly at the minor demons that had gathered near us.

"Now's your chance" yells Varric spotting another chance as they all kept the minor demons busy.

"Be careful… this demon takes after the sin of pride. It will try and get the best of us" comments Solas.

I slice through the minor demon in front me as I tried to advance to a clearer spot. The giant demon chuckles mockingly as it whipped electricity across the ground injuring Cassandra in the process.
She continues to fight like it didn't affect her. At this point she seemed to be fuelled by sheer will power and her hatred towards the creature. I manage to find a clear line of sight between me and the rift as the last minor demon was killed. I place my hand up the air and allow the mark to take full control of the rift.

"Give that thing everything you got!" I yell as my voice sounds hoarse and strained from the fighting.

No one comments back at me barking orders but they can see that the pride demon is almost defeated. The demon falls to its knees with arrows sticking out of its hide. It continues to growl and lashes out constantly as Cassandra charges forward and slashes at the creature with all her strength. Killing the creature as it begins to fade into dust she yells. "Now! Seal the rift!"

I don't even nod in response and charge my fist upwards closing the rift with all my remaining strength. I hear the rumbling from the breach as my head begins to spin. My arms drop by my side and I feel myself falling backwards hitting the ground hard. The last thing I hear is the muffling noises of the others talking.
