Mage Scorned (Cullen Rutherford/Solas)

When the fall of Kirkwall's Chantry ignites a brutal war between mages and templars, Arishara fights to protect the innocent amid the chaos. Skilled with a bow and guided by Cullen Rutherford's steady presence, she becomes a steadfast guardian in a world unravelled.

As the Inquisition rises from the ashes, Arishara finds herself drawn to Cullen. Not just as an ally, but as something more profound, a source of strength and solace in uncertain times. Yet, it is Solas, the enigmatic elf, who unsettles her in other ways, challenging her understanding of what it means to be elf, warrior, and part of the Inquisition. His quiet wisdom stirs questions about the nature of magic, her past, and the truths she's long kept hidden.

Caught between the certainty of her bond with Cullen and the unsettling truths Solas reveals, Arishara must confront a shifting world... one where loyalty, identity, and duty blur into a fragile, uncertain path.
