Summary
"The trick to any good story, Varric once told Hawke, was figuring out how it started.
"Sometimes the dwarf went for broad strokes, the big picture, then narrowed in on finer details. Kirkwall, the City of Chains, rising from the Waking Sea, a mountain of stone and steel and centuries of accumulated blood. The Hanged Man, a bar in Lowtown whose picture is in the dictionary under 'dive,' its armored namesake swaying upside-down in the briny ocean breeze. People filing in through the entrance, into a room whose floorboards would smell of beer and bad decisions until the place burned down by chance or malice. In one corner, a bar; in another, a fireplace. And in the corner farthest from the door, a stage--just large enough to accommodate a drum kit, a keyboard, and a quartet of women who have to keep their thrashing in check so as not to elbow each other while they play."

Summary
After Wisdom had gone, I hadn’t been sure that Solas would ever return. In time, he did, offering no more explanation than to say, I could hardly abandon you now. Even then the word seemed to catch in my ear. Now. Maybe once before and perhaps one day soon, but not just yet. On that point I had no illusions. Solas was not a man to promise forever, though he was afraid of dying alone.
Chapters 68 through 82 cover the Protect Clan Lavellan war table mission, the canon story resumes with chapter 83.
