Another two month's his men and still no trace of her could be found and his spell that brought Cassandra Cullen and Leliana to the fade had caused a bit of an overreaction for his spies reported now an army of Teventier and College of mages were working on new spells and defenses to "protect' the leaders of the Inquisition from his evil grasp. The thought made him want to laugh, the only thing he wanted from them was his heart returned to him. A request they did not wish to grant. Since then his agent's found much in the way of the murders. And it was not the Venatori as once through, no the hands behind this act were much more powerful, and placed his heart in deeper danger and he knew the Divine closeness to the real killer (weather she knew it or not) he had to find her.
So many plan within plans, and now the Inqusition was a full enemy, no matter his spies had managed to get him a parting gift from skyhold. He smiled looking at pages of Master Alexius time research. With Fiona at the college Dorain well off being Dorian, and Vivian for some reason that still did not make sense to him reestablishing the Circle in Kirwall of all places no one else left would know the difference in the fake notes and the real ones. The spell was surprisingly complicated.
"Fen'harl we have word from Lynais the inquisitor has been located" the old sliver haired woman said handing Solas a note. Odd, it was Lynais handwriting he remembered it well teaching the his friend as a child to write but he rarely sent a written report of his finding, no that was usually done in person. The reason behind the report was soon clear as a dark look covered Solas face. "You are to pull our best spies from Starkhaven, the Anderfells and Lotherin, they are close enough to get there quickly and not known enough to noticed. Send them to Kirkwall as quickly as possible. Have them do a full inflation shops bars the alienage and this estate here in Hightown. Place our best warriors nearby. Tell them to be ready at a moment's notice on MY command"
The woman looked at him strangely "YOUR command sir."
"Tell Lyanis I will handle this personally to keep doing what he's doing. Also have our people in Denerim start some kind of complaints. Nothing that will cost lives but something that will get Ferldands and the Inquisitions attention and tell Bria's people if she wishes to continue our agreement. . . Keep her empress enthralled until this matter is done."
The woman turned and headed out as he placed Alexius notes into a locked metal box on his desk "I'm coming Vahean just a little while longer." Well at least now why he knew why Vivianne was in Kirkwall.
Kirkwall two weeks later
"So the arrow struck the Monster where he stood saving the children of the village. And the children made the thanks to Fen'Haral, and they never saw him again."Arays voice trailed off. "Again. Again" the little dalish boy exclaimed. "Sorry dalen, it is time for you to go home, or your mother will hunt me down. And so would my dinner guest now be off with you" Arya said as the boy slide off her lap she waved goodbye to him with her right hand as her left was still hidden under long cape. The small boy with thick black hair turned and waved "Goodbye Comtess."
"You know I think I am losing my mind darling if I didn't know any better Id think you were mooning over Solas." Viveanne said, Arya sighed "Sometimes its hard to believe. . . I still miss him so much." She sighed, the last thing she wanted to discuss for the 400th time this week was her feelings for Solas. One because she was not sure how she felt two because it was none of their business and three something just felt off. "Very well darling though why you come out here every day I swear the smell alone could kill a dragon." Arya did all she could to hide her offense, she wondered if Viviane did not care for others and did not see their plight, either way it bothered the Inquisitor. "Because Vivienne they are my people. And they are suffering. I am one of the highest placed Dalish in this world. It would be wrong of me not do something better their plight." Viviane just sighed "Well at least the Divine sent you such handsome protection." Vivienne smiled winking at the tall blond drink of fine Antivan wine that was Zeveran the Crow and his crew.
Zeveran bowed as the women approached with a smile "Good evening gentlemen. I am ready to return home now thank you for waiting for me." Arya said with a polite smile. "Of course Inquisitor. I mean Comptess it was no trouble. Will you be stopping at the Hanged tonight to dine with the Vicount this evening?"
"No I am tired plus Varric has a lot of paperwork to finish before the Nobles revolt or he has them all killed one." Arya replied rubbing her eyes. Perhaps it what she was not facing about Solas and Coles death but lately she was tired. So very very tired. As she opened eyes she noticed a tall silver haired dalish man with shoulder length and bright green eyes standing behind Zeveran. The Antivan noticed Arya looking behind him "Ah yes this is Manrin I call him Rin he is new to the crows. Rin this our charge the Competess recently known as Inquisitor Lavellen." Zeveran said looking back at the new comer winking relentlessly at Rin. "Welcome aboard Rin I look forward to getting to know you better." Arya said with a smile as Rin grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. "Oh a gentleman, there may be your answer to getting over Solas."Viviane whispered into her ear and with that she withdrew her hand back under there long cloak. Vivian's words made her ill, she didn't want anyone else. "If you're ready malady" Zeveran said extending his arm but Arya just pulled her cloak over her head and walked toward the exit of the Alieanage. As she reached the clearing she felt a tingle trail slowly down her spine closing her eyes for a moment as it slowly moved down she was in the exalted plains staring into his eyes. . . . Solas. The same feeling she had as he would move his fingers down her spin as they kissed "Solas" she sighed gently
"Comptess?"Zeveran voice rang out bring her back to reality. "Comptess is everything ok?" Arya just nodded as they continued on down the alley into Darktown fading into the distance as Solas stepped out of the shadows his head covered in his used when traveling "Ma Vehnan I found you."
