Five years after the Exalted Council and the Inquisition yet stands. The Inquisitor, having found love in the most unexpected of places, starts his life away from the politics, leaving much of the responsibility in Cullen's hands. Living with the woman that he loves and the children that he's fathered in a country that inspires him, there is nothing that Lavellan feels his cannot conquer. However when he is asked suddenly to return to Skyhold, he may find the tension there quite different from that of Corypheus' days.
