Hey! Not Sure If You Know, But The Post You Reblogged Here Actually Features A Mahariel/Zevran Ship,

Two orlesian elven kids having some happy time.

So I drew my ocs Almael (white haired kid) and Tamril (brown haired one) during their childhood. They were best friends and grew up together. After Almael’s magic manifested at age of 9, he was sent to the circle of Montsimmard. After long time not seeing each other’s, they meet again (mostly by chance) in adulthood. At this time, Almael became a Mage working for the Inquisition (which allied with Mages), while Tamril became a secret Agent of Fen’harel.

The PC approaches the elf outside of the Gull and Lantern

Lysas: You’re from the Inquisition. I didn’t think you’d still be here. Were you really looking to ally with us?

Dialogue options:

General: Yes. Mages should be free. [1] - Sera disapproves - Cassandra slightly disapproves - Vivienne slightly disapproves

General: You sound doubtful. [2]

General: No. Mages should be contained. [3] + Sera slightly approves + Cassandra slightly approves + Vivienne approves

1 - General: Yes. Mages should be free. PC: I want this war to end without sending you back to the circle. Lysas: There has to be a way, right? We’re not what they think: all blood mages and abominations. We just want to be normal. Have families. Use our magic to… help grow crops or something. We never wanted war. [4]

2 - General: You sound doubtful. PC: Is that so hard to believe? Lysas: Everyone blames us. The templars left the Chantry, too. That’s worse, isn’t it? They took an oath. Yes everyone calls it the “mage rebellion.” We’re the ones they hate. [4]

3 - General: No. Mages should be contained. PC: This rebellion is doomed. I offered your leaders a way to end it peacefully. Lysas: There was no other way! Do you think any of us wanted this? On the run, everyone hating us… What choice did we have? Stay and be slaves? [4]

4 - Scene continues:

Vivienne: There are better ways than war to affect change.

Solas: Sometimes to achieve the world one desires, one must take regrettable measures.

Lysas: I… I hope you can do something. Tying ourselves to Tevinter…? That can’t be the right way to end this.

5 - Dialogue options:

Investigate: Tell me about yourself. [6]

Investigate: You don’t like Tevinter? [7]

Investigate: When did the magister come? [8]

General: Be careful. [9]

6 - Investigate: Tell me about yourself. PC: You seem young to be part of this. Lysas: I’m Lysas. I came into my magic when I was nine years old. Templars came into the alienage and took me to the Circle. They didn’t even let me say goodbye. It’s not right. I studied hard, I passed my Harrowing, I sing the chant. But I’ll be locked up the rest of my life. [Back to 5]

7 - Investigate: You don’t like Tevinter? PC: You don’t approve of the Grand Enchanter’s decision? Lysas: I was there when we voted to leave the Circle. She really seemed to care what we wanted. She was ready to rebel, but she wasn’t going to unless it was the will of all mages. It’s hard to believe she’d go behind our backs and sell us to the magisters. [Back to 5]

8 - Investigate: When did the magister come? PC: How long has the magister been here? Lysas: A day or two after… after the Conclave, he arrived. Come to save us from the wrath of the templars, he said. But this doesn’t feel like safety. [Back to 5]

9 - General: Be careful. PC: Take care of yourself. There’s something strange going on. Lysas: I never thought the Grand Enchanter would swear to a magister.

my warden & inquisitor for me 8-9 years ago

CONFESSION:

I know it's insignificant and unlikely, but I've been wanting to go to Tevinter since my family was sold into slavery in DAO and, like.... I just want to know if Valora is okay? If Bioware could put her name above an NPC's head or something, I'd be happy. My poor Tabris never got to rescue her, and I need closure.
