A taste of my story for 'Alistair';
She watched as Fenris disappeared into the crowd, and shook her head with a small smile as she thought about what he was getting excited about. Candied apples were all the rage in Fereldan at the moment, so naturally, Kirkwall and most other southern towns in the Free Marches were well supplied. Hawke herself was slightly...well, slightly addicted to the sweet caramel-covered treats, but tha was nothing compared her beloved's affection for them. The mage moved to run her hand through her hair, but was halted by the fact that it was not loose, as was the norm, but instead had been braided with beads and feathers. The night before this work had been done, quite tediously, by Isabela and Merill. At the thought of her female companions, Hawke scanned the crowd, but saw not a hair of either. So instead she leaned against a nearby building to wait for Fenris, until a voice called to her...but it wasn't her name it called.
"Irma!" The voice called. At first, Hawke ignored it, as her name was
Faline, not
Irma, but her attention was forced towards the speaker as he came running towards her. He was a tall, broad-shouldered man, obviously a warrior, with long blonde hair tied back loosely, some fringes falling into his face in a way that made her think of Anders. His hazel eyes surprised her, as they were filled grief, joy and doubt. But what surprised her most was when this strange man who she did not know grabbed her by the shoulders excitedly - something that scared the small mage - and cried cheerfully, "Irma! I thought I'd never see you again, love" And then the stranger bent down and kissed her.

Exciting, eh? >

I wonder whoever this strange man who keep calling Faline 'Irma' could possibly be; and why the heck does he look like Anders? And more importantly, where the f*** is Fenris?!
