Summary: Past Featured Story

Sierra can't sleep.  Not since the defeat of the Archdemon.  That's when the nightmares started...but are they really nightmares, or something more?  She must risk it all to find the truth, and possibly save the one she couldn't save on the top of Fort Drakon.

I love this story so much already.  The way you have seemlessly joined the game's storyline with your own, it's as if it is hard to tell where one begins and the other ends.  Beautiful.

Athras was most definitely the right person for this conversation.  He didn't sugarcoat it.  He told her what she needed to hear, and was a true friend to her.

My heart catches in my throat when I read about Alistair enduring such torture.  Brilliantly written.

Sierra is really starting to go off the deep end.  Great update!

I <3 Topher!  He's a fantastic OC for this story.

Yup, still loving Topher!

The Ghost kiss was sweet and strangely hot.  I never did like Anora!

I laughed my ass off at Gorim in this story!!!  TOO FUNNY!  Your depiction of Leliana is spot on, too.  Great job so far!

Alistair's torture is painful to read.  Well done!

Possibly my favorite chapter so far.  Alistair was utterly sigh-worthy.

Sierra voiced my own concerns for her in this chapter.  I am anxious to see how (or, I suppose hesitantly, if) you manage to pull a happy ending out of this.  I have a few theories, but I'm keeping them to myself for now.

I think it's funny how Sierra spilt all that information without realizing she was doing it.

Hmmm....not sure what I think of Morrigan in this story.  Looking forward to The Fade!

I just realized you're all caught up posting over here!  YAY!!!  I loved this chapter.   I haven't played where Zev turned on me, but I could imagine the guilt from that would be hard for him to bear.  Especially if he harbored feelings for her the way that he seemed to in this story.  You wrote him beautifully.  Loved it.  :)

This chapter was phenomenal!  The emotions from all the characters, even Victor, were so palpable and real.  Questions I'd had all along were answered  It was everything I'd been hoping for in the climax!  Now you just have to figure out how to give them a Happily Ever After and it'll be perfect!  Well done!



Author's Response:

Thanks!  I really enjoyed writing that ending bit with her and Alistair.  I feel like I might have rushed it a bit, but I was so excited I couldn't stop myself!  :)

OMG I loved the banter between them in this chapter.  It was sweet and touching and funny and heartbreaking all at once.  Good job!



Author's Response:

Glad you liked it!  Those are pretty much all the emotions I was going for :)

OOH -- I think the Old Gods are going to reward her for freeing them!  This was a fabulous chapter.  You did a really good job with the pride demon!



Author's Response:

I'm so glad you liked the pride demon!  I was afraid everyone was going to think it was totally random, but I wanted the Fade to feel like a really dangerous place, for more reasons than the obvious, you know?

 

I always forget to write chapter titles when I post on here, lol.

Why, oh why wouldn't Alistair let her die so she could be with him???  Dumbass.  Still digging Topher.  Love how Pria had to pull him back from going to Sierra.  I would think, considering how selfless her requests were, that the Gods should be able to find a way for her and Alistair to remain together forever. 

Love this story so much!!!



Author's Response:

Ahhh, I know.  As easy as that would make things, you know Alistair would never let her do that.  I'm so glad you love Topher.  I love him, too!  I wanted this innocent, in-no-way-cheating undercurrent of sexual tension between the two of them.  :P

Reviewer: Lillie Cullen Signed

Didn't see that coming!  Don't they know the Old Gods are probably eavesdropping?  LOL

Yup, still love Topher.  Though I'm glad Pria dragged him away...that goodbye was never going to end!



Author's Response:

I hope the last few things I have up my sleeve are just as unexpected for you!

 

Ah, Topher.  What can I say?  He's the great guy waiting in the wings if your man should ever break your heart, lol.  Which, of course, Alistair would NEVER do :P  So I guess Topher will be forever waiting

That crackling sound you hear?  That's not the fire...that's my heart breaking...  painfully beautiful, darlin'.



Author's Response:

Thanks.  Ahhh, i cried the whole time I was writing it *sigh*

That's an interesting development, to be sure!  Can't wait to hear what Morrigan has to say.  :)

YAY for the shout-out and cleaning up unfinished business!  I freaking LOVED the flashback in this one -- laughed so hard I woke my husband up!  And sheesh, woman...talk about a cliffhanger!  I still love this story so much.  :)



Author's Response:

Lol, I freaking love that you woke your husband!  Glad you enjoyed the flashback as much as I did!  It was a sudden whim that was too good to ignore.

The summary said F!Cousland/Alistair, didn't it?  This seems to be more F/F so far.  Also, I'm having a hard time relating to this heroine, although I can't quite put my finger on exactly why, so I'm afraid I'm not able to offer you any constructive feedback on that point.  Still, it was nice to see a full length DA story here!
