Summary
Haunted by a violent past she’s desperate to escape, Finley is dragged into the Inquisition when her best friend becomes the Herald of Andraste. She wants to leave, but something makes her stay. Maybe it’s the hope of redemption, or maybe it’s Cullen, a former Templar who embodies everything she despises.
As the Inquisition grows, she battles both demons and the shadows of her past while Cullen forces her to confront not just the war around them, but the war within. Her pursuit of redemption leads her toward sacrifice, but Cullen’s presence makes her question what salvation truly means.
Tormented by the sins of her past, Finley must decide whether she’s destined to be a weapon or something more. But redemption comes with a price, and she’s not sure if her soul will survive the cost.
New chapters are posted about once a week! :)
