Chapter 11: Desperate Measures
I'm excited about this chapter because it's one of my first major deviations from the standard DA:O storyline. The "Return to Ostagar" chapter was my own addition, yes...and I've made my own minor changes throughout the story...but the sacrifice that is made is one I'm pretty sure isn't allowed in game....

I like it so far. Glad you were able to work in some backstory for the shapeshifting!

Haha. Why thank you, my astute reader! 
I hope the later explanation made my idea of shape-shifting fit a little bit better with what Morrigan said about that magical art.

I like my Artalise realizing things a lot apparently. Short summary: Artalise ponders what occurred in the Tower, has a bit o' a chat with FE Irving and then meets some of the Circle Elves...where she makes a startling....realization

Chapter 20: Duty and Loyalty
Chapter 20: The party argues over the validity of pursuing the Urn at Brother Genitivi's house causing a rift between the GWs to form, and Master Ignacio questions Zevran about his motivations for the GW contract.
Edited to say: I recently added a chapter summary page at the very beginning, thus all the previous links no longer work. However I've edited this link to work and the links on the very first page to work with the new chapter set up. Sorry about any confusion that it could cause.

I've decided to make a companion collection called "Always Comes the Spring" that will be highlighting Devona CousCous's experiences in the ACTD world. Her story isn't pleasant...it is rated M and not for fluff (at least not yet...)
Always Comes the Spring
Chapter 1: Convergence
Their home in flames, their husband and father dying, Eleanor and Devona desire only to kill as many men as possible before their inevitable deaths. Too bad Arl Howe wants differently

Chapter 22A: Two Mistakes
Chapter 22A: I was told there was a distinct lack of Zev dialogue in the previous chapter. So here is a chapter with not only Zev dialogue- but from his perspective as well during the skipped "interrogation" scene.

I was actually really surprised when I first went there and I saw that there were a lot of requests that really weren't that....kinky. I was so disappointed impressed that people actually used it to see how interesting ideas would work out. 
Whoever put that request in must surely be pleased with the product, knowing your talent!!
In regards to that Chapter: Filly, if I may....just doing my part to make Dragon Age live up to its claim that it is a "dark fantasy"

Chapter 24: A Dream Destroyed
It's a story sandwich - IE the big stuff goes on in the beginning and the end (revolving about what happens when the taint goes unchecked - in both humans and for the land) Inbetween, the Artalise sets up camp and teaches Zevran how to set up a tent (I hope it is more interesting than it sounds!)
