ROGUE🖤 (Cole x OC! Lavellan) ✓ [COMPLETED]

Ch. 10 *Here Lies The Abyss*

COLE
⚔️⚔️⚔️

So many Grey Wardens, all controlled.

Nalia kills a demon before ducking out of the way of a Grey Warden's blade.
I fight as fast and as hard as I can, stabbing them in there most vulnerable spots, watching them fall to the ground, lifeless.

Cullen runs up to us. "Alright, your through. Get in there and find Erimond!"

Suddenly, we hear a man screaming above us. Our heads look up, only to see one of our soldiers get thrown off the battlement by a demon. It looks at us, snarling before running away.
Cullen curses. "We can't get soldiers up there without demons attacking us!" He looks at us. "If you can kill the demons on the battlements, we'll cover you."

Nalia nods. "I'll be fine. Don't worry! Come on!" She runs ahead, disappearing through the doorway with Stroud hot on her heels.

I linger behind, listening to what Cullen shouts.
"Maker be with us!"
He runs back into battle, doing a war cry as he kills whoever comes across as a threat.

⚔️⚔️⚔️

We slaughter so many demons it makes my head spin. All the soldiers who were fighting before we arrived are wounded, but they can still wield a blade if necessary.

Nalia runs faster then I've ever seen her run, attacking with such a force it makes my eyes widen.

She cuts into the next demon, slices, stabs, screaming as she does it. Her face is covered in blood, just like her hair, she wears demon and Warden blood without shame.
The demon falls over, and when Nalia pulls out her daggers, she shouts a cry, looking around at everything as if it's a threat.

She's not herself in this moment... she's vengeance.
I stand still, watching her. She is so frightening in this moment, but I'm not scared. Instead, I hold a high respect for her.

When the moment goes still, Solas runs ahead. "Quickly! We must find Erimond!"

She wipes at her mouth, nodding before taking off after him. We've done all we could up here, now Inquisition soldiers can enter the battlements without any risk of dying.

We run down the stairs, dodging demon hands and Warden blades. We kill whoever is against us, and help those who are fighting the corrupt Wardens.

"No! This isn't right!" A Warden woman shouts as she fights her Warden brother. "Don't do this!"
She isn't one of them...

Nalia kills the rest of those standing, turning to face those who fought back. "Help Inquisition soldiers!" She shouts, running away. "Stay away from the mages!"

"We will. Thank you, Inquisitor!" A man says, but I'm too far gone to know what else happens.

It's now me, Solas, Stroud, Hawke, and Nalia, grouped together and standing in front of the large wooden door that keeps us from reaching Erimond.
Nalia begins to kick as hard as she can, whereas Hawke shoots balls of fire into the wood.

Once the door is burnt through, we all run towards the crowd of corrupted Grey Wardens.

A group of Mages are in a large circle, arms outstretched to where a rift is being torn open.

I see Erimond stand beside Clarel, who slits the throat of a man before she lays his body on a table.

"Blood magic," I think.
And just like that... everything is about to go terribly wrong.
