There are hundreds of stories the people of Thedas could share about the Grey Wardens, Their founding, and putting an end to the first blight after it lasted for a century. The final battle of Garahel over the Freemarches, atop his feathered mount. The Hero of Ferelden, who against all odds ended the fifth blight with the least Wardens in history. Or even Rook, who ended a double blight, and three gods. But this story isn't about any of them. The Warden's here are known only to each other, and those they gave their lives to defend.

Death, Dragons & Dumb Decisions
Surviving the Riders Quadrant is hard enough, but surviving it while keeping a massive secret? That's just plain reckless. Nyx Greycastle-well, that's the name she's using-has spent her life surrounded by dragons, but pretending to be just another first-year cadet at Basgiath War College is proving more difficult than she expected. Between sadistic instructors, bloodthirsty rivals, and an annoyingly handsome wingleader who keeps looking at her like he knows something, staying under the radar is impossible. Oh, and there's also the minor issue of not dying before Threshing. With secrets, enemies, and an ever-growing number of dumb decisions piling up, Nyx is in for the deadliest three years of her life. But if she wants to claim a dragon-and live long enough to turn the tide of a secret war-she'll have to prove she's more than just a name. Because in the Riders Quadrant, survival isn't guaranteed. It's earned. Updated on AO3 first under the same name. I do not own the characters, only Aelin Tauri/ Nyx Greycastle, please let me know if you are enjoying
