Summary
Before Alistair Theirin was King of Ferelden, before he was a Grey Warden and hero, he was a little boy. A bastard. Unwanted. Until somebody wanted him.
I began this for Alistair Appreciation Week 2018 ... and it's expanded into a five chapter WIP.

Summary
Five years before the Fifth Blight, young King Cailan suspects a conspiracy against him on Ferelden's northern coast. He sends his most trusted agent to investigate. Red Jenny is waiting.
This story is one of adventure and intrigue (plot-heavy) with canon-typical violence. There is an atypical love story between two atypical adults, so look for the fluff and atypical smut.
[AU: Non-Warden Cousland.]

Backstory Short Stories by Absinthiana
Fandom: Dragon Age (Video Games), Dragon Age - All Media Types, Dragon Age - Various Authors, Dragon Age: Origins
16 May 2018
Summary
Heroes are everywhere. But if nobody sees them being heroic, is a person still a hero? This series is dedicated to minor and pre-heroic characters who do their thing when nobody's looking. All stories are based in the Dragon Age universe, timed before the start of the Fifth Blight, often told from a Ferelden-centric perspective and shuffled into vaguely chronological order.
Blessed are they who stand before
The corrupt and the wicked and do not falter.

Just marvelous. Quick-paced one-shots that flit through a series of Cousland AUs.
