Summary
After rejecting her half-brother, Alistair, Goldanna is left with regret for what her choice might have cost her children. After a bedtime story and with the help of her daughter, Rue, it becomes apparent that there might be a path forward with Alistair after all.
Note: I fully acknowledge that Fiona is Alistair's actual mom and both Goldanna and Alistair were the victims of a ruse to hide that fact. They aren't actually related by blood, but nobody in my DA:O canon ever knows that.

Summary
A MDZS/Valdemar crossover for the April 2026 challenge (unlikely pairings)
…….
A white horse walks into the Burial Mounds and calls Wei Wuxian Chosen. He tells her she’s made a mistake. She says Companions don’t make mistakes.
When the Sects finally come for his head, this horse-yao offers him a way to save himself and the Wen refugees. It just requires leaving everything he knows and everyone else he loves behind.
Wei Wuxian has never been very good at taking the easy path. He's far better at attempting the impossible. Admittedly, with mixed results.
……
Sometimes it feels like Vanyel is fighting this whole damned war alone. He’s holding the borders together with power that is slowly burning him out. The war is never ending. His control is slipping. And there's no one else who can do what he does…
…until a newly Chosen trainee is dropped on him by a Companion that went further afield than any others dared. He is nothing like what Valdemar expects a Herald to be—foreign, sharp-tongued, and wielding a power that rivals Vanyel’s own. But he might be exactly what Valdemar needs. What Vanyel needs—if he doesn’t strangle him first.

Summary
He should be back at his dingy little flat, cutting mold off a crust of bread, eating that crust of bread while staring out the window, then falling asleep with a lit cig in his hand. He didn't need to be here. But having something to dangle over Ser Petro's head, maybe that was worth the trouble.
Exhausted, chain-smoking templar Tarquin decides, against his better judgement, to look into cases of unusual demonic possession occurring in Dock Town.

Summary
Coupé is going to kill Robert Robertson. She’s got the time. The date. The method. He is a dead man walking and nothing—not even several other assassins trying to kill a normie dispatcher for some reason—is going to stop her. AKA: Coupé tries to kill Robert and accidentally saves him instead. God. So embarrassing. Ugh.
