  It is very dark.
  
  You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
  
  > Death by Grue.
  You did not leave the dark Eastern Stairway. This was a mistake.
  
  The grue has sharp, gnashing teeth. You are experiencing this close up - Possibly closer than you might really like.
  
  I'm sorry: You have been eaten by a grue.[Themes: fan fiction, serious, fantasy, humor]
  
  Over the last few weeks the tension in the Garrows grew rapidly, when Knight Commander Meredith and First Enchanter Orsino had been at each other necks. Meredith convinced that Orsino was hiding every blood mage in all of Kirkwall and Ferelden and kept on pushing all of the mages she could possibly, get her hands on. Her job became her obsession and some of her Templars having doubts when they brought in many mages within a few days that she classified blood mage. (Your Name) had quickly, gathered Anders, Merrill and Fenris for the task of bringing peace to both the mages and the Templars. Her other friends had stop by noting the disturbance in the city that grew allot more over the years.
  
  "I will have the tower search top to bottom," Meredith heart was set. The circle must be harboring such vile creatures. They just have to be! Her Templars couldn't find no chase of them in the city beside their crimes.
  
  > cut in to Orsino Defense
  "Meredith, Stop pushing them so far. If he says that there isn't no blood mages in the tower, then there isn't. What proof do you have?" You snapped at The Knight Commander who looked very taken aback on how you spoke to her. Orsino smiled smugly at your support.
  
  "What else do we do then (Your Name?) I have a city to protect. I cannot take risks. What will you do in my place?" She asked you, sorrow filled her voice.
  
  Anders flinched next to you.
  
  > say "I wouldn't kill innocent mages"
  "I wouldn't kill innocent people, Meredith!" You snarled at the Knight Commander
  
  > NEXT
  Orsino looked taken aback, angry, at her demand. He knew she was insane, but to push this far is saying something. She had no right, no right to accuse his circle as such and no logical reason or evidence to provide for her to search the tower. Know looking at the Knight-Commander, any small thing might set her off now into ordering the Right of Annulment.
  
  "You cannot do that you have no right!"
  
  Meredith took a step forward threatening, as you just reached beside them. Anders flinched beside her, and her gaze looked at him questioningly. He refused to look at her, or even glance at her. The argument before them held his attention.
  
  > What's going on this time?
  "What's going on this time?" You demanded at the two, but Meredith ignored you and advanced toward
  
  Orsino.
  
  "I have every right. You are harboring blood mages and I'm intent to root them out before they infect this city." Meredith snarled, as her Templars came closer to them.
  
  (Your Name) Hawke didn't know what happened next when she tried to calm both sides down, not taking a side. She feared for her...and Anders safety, since they were both mages. She knew deep down this was selfish, but then suddenly, Anders took a step forward catching their attention.
  
  "There is no compromise,"
  
  > Anders what did you do?
  "There is no compromise,"
  
  That comment caught Hawke's attention. Her heart wrenched against her chest feeling dread.
  
  "Anders...what did you do?" (Your Name) uttered when he finally glance at her sending her a sad and depressing look. Before long the Chantry exploded into a whirl of light and dark pink light destroying everything within and around. The ground shook and Hawke almost fell. Shock and betrayal ran deep within her.
  
  (Your Name) Hawke cried.
  
  The battle was over. Most of the mages were killed, and Meredith had been dealt with.
  
  Anders...
  
  > Cry
  Hawke dropped to her knees at the fallen mage side. The person she grew to love over the years, fallen when he helped her slay a few Templars after defeating the abomination that Orsino had become in desperation and anger.
  
  His eyes were closed; his face grew pale and bruised. His lips dried with blood. Hawke wailed even louder. She imagined all the times she wanted to kiss him and to hold him close to her. Merrill took a step to her, and embraced Hawke.
  
  Her entire heart shattered.
  
  He's gone. He's dead.
  
  > seek Comfort
  Her mind went into frenzy, as she pushed Merrill off and made a grab of one of the fallen Templars sword. No, she wouldn't let it end like this.
  
  Her mind was clouded, this was all Justice fault. If Justice... Vengeance haven't push him, haven't influence him so much Anders wouldn't have done all of this. Meredith would have fallen another time a few weeks at most to another blade to her own Templars once Cullen realized her mental state.
  
  "Hawke" Isabella called,
  
  > answer Her
  You nodded your head to the pirate woman feeling weak and drained.
  
  Your hands still craspped his robes.
  
  "Are you going to be allright?"
  
  > Shook your head crying
  Hawke placed the blade to her wrist startling everyone.
  
  "Someone stop her, she's not right!" Aveline cried, not too far away as Varric and Fenris tried to move by Hawke's side to grab the blade away from her, but it was too late. Hawke slice her wrist and soon blood scattered all over them. The clouds above turned more stormy and purple, as Hawke sobbed more violently from the pain and grief.
  
  "Maker," Fenris breathed.
  
  The dark clouds swept down around Hawke covering both her and Anders.
  
  Hawke had lost her mind. It was expected since she had lost almost everyone of late, most of her family, but no one could have predicted it would be like this.
  
  Blood Magic.
  
  The group couldn't see for a few minutes.
  
  Isabella coughed violently, as the smoke filled her lungs and before long the clouds and the sky settled peaceful, and before them all was no more Hawke, but Anders still lay there lifeless and limp.
  
  Hawke was nowhere to be seen.
  
  "I...I remembered something." Merrill whispered, more to herself confused at a sudden memory that just appeared in her mind.
  
  > wake Up
  The sun blinded her when she opened her eyes. Hawke found herself in a strange setting. She lay on a grassy ground, bloody, in the middle of nowhere. Trees seemed to go miles on end, when she managed to gather her strength to sit up. Her wrist hurt greatly, and her head still spinning.
  
  What happened?
  
  Why was she covered in blood?
  
  She glanced down at the cut on her wrist, she couldn't remember anything.
  
  Something wasn't right, something wasn't right indeed. Was she in the middle of a battle? Her throat felt very hoarse. A branch snapped and she brought her hand straight to the staff on her back.
  
  "Who goes there?" Her voice was weak; it didn't scare off whoever or whatever it was.
  
  An elf appeared.
  
  A girl with dark brown hair with strange markings on her face, with pointy ears. She looked down at her with worried, concerned.
  
  "I...thought that I heard something. Are you alright Asha?" The young woman asked, unsure, and not comfortable in Hawke's company.
  
  Hawke hissed in pain feeling dizzy, and weak. She soon passed out into the dark abyss.
