'No Line On The Horizon' U2. 4:12
"Maker's breath," Alistair whispered. "I did not know, forgive me." he placed his hand over the elf's heart.
"It is irrelevant," came her stony reply. What happened to her in the Alienage did not need to be spoken of at this moment in time. The elf leaned closer to the Templar's ear. "Every night I have the same dream, I'm hatching some plot, I'm scheming some scheme. I want to get away from this place," the two sat in silence for a moment. Kallian spoke of leaving the Grey Wardens. "It is me who wants to get away." she continued. Alistair stopped her with a kiss. Let the Blight come, he would have his love.
"There is no line on the horizon." the Templar remarked as they stood up and looked down the endless road. The lovers walked away from it all.
'Fugitive' David Gray. 3:43
The wind howled past Zevran as he walked down the lonely city alley. He was a mud streaked fugitive. No longer wanted by the Crows and no longer needed by the Grey Warden. Something had to give when the Grey Warden married Queen Anora. The elf rubbed his arms to warm him from the winter's chill.
"When will you realize, my friend, you can not take your love with?" Zev muttered. "Just have to live, no?" Was the love a lie? No, it couldn't have been. If only for a second the Antivian could see the Grey Warden's love for the assassin twinkle in his eyes. Every day was just a different version of how their loved had to endure. Sadly though, it endured no longer.
'Fire Woman' The Cult. 5:12
"Fire woman," Anders grinned as he watched his commander practice one of the fire spells she knew. Every since he set his eyes on the mage he was wound up, he couldn't sleep, he couldn't do anything right. Just because of the way she moved, the way the flames leapt to reach her. Anders focused back on the commander. That certainly was no spell they taught at the Circle, so where did she learn it? Anders's body shuddered. The way his commander controlled the heat and power made him trance like a cat on a hot tin shack. "Shake it," he licked his lips. He must have made some sort of noise because the commander had turned to him and was coming closer. Anders could feel the heat run off her body in waves. He pushed his lips onto hers. "Fire woman, you're to blame." Anders murmured as flames and magic crackled from both of them.
'The Other Side' Scissor Sisters. 4:22
"You grow as grass under their feet. No one will ever know your name, except for as the villain. And still, you lie here," Anora wept onto the shallow grave. In court she was Queen and now she was merely a daughter crying for her dead father. "Everything good that I have received has come from you. This world should not go on in the way it has been without you Father," Anora told the grave. "If it takes all my life I will restore your name, I will make you the hero you so rightfully are. Wish me good luck Father," the Queen stood up. "And I will meet you on the other side."
'Saint Isabelle' The Nightwatchman/ Tom Morello. 3:31
The Maker surely shined on Amyr Cousland. Because it was the Maker who led him to the beautiful Leliana. "I will always stand beside you, defend you, mend you, I'll hold you, keep you, and fight beside you," he had told her. "I will never let you go," the Bard would smile back at him. "Maker, please make her road straight and true. Lady Leliana is coming through." and when they fought side by side, her song urging him on, Leliana would always say:
"I'll follow you down love, I'm right behind you." and that gave the man just enough to vanquish any foe.
'As Time Goes By' Billie Holiday. 3:13
"If you are going to remember only one thing, my love," Zevran told her one night as they stretched out in the grass. "You must remember that a kiss is just a kiss. A sigh is just a sigh. Nothing changes as time goes by. This," he motioned to their bodies that were entwined with one and another. "Doesn't mean anything." Elissa looked over to him, her face turned into a frown.
"But what about love? What about moonlight and love songs? What about hearts that are full of passion and jealousy and hate? You cannot deny that. You cannot deny love."
"Ah, yes but that is the same old story," Zev mused. "Things said when you are in the moment, no? I, personally, do not mix pleasure and love together."
"But the world will always welcome lovers." Elissa said as she nuzzled into the crook of his neck. "Maybe you will come to see love and pleasure together. Maybe I can show you that as time goes by."
'You're A Cad' The Bird & The Bee. 3:10
Leliana glared at the Grey Warden, her eyes boring into him.
"I know the truth, and I will not waste my youth! You are a rascal and a rogue." she spat at him with her heavy accent. "I cannot believe you slept with that....that...witch!" The Grey Warden looked down sheepishly.
"I'm sorry. I was reckless with your heart." he apologized. The bard sighed. She should be better then this, she should not be like a fish tugging at the Grey Warden's line.
"You are a villain...you slept with Morrigan. Out of all the companions here...it was with her!"
She should be better, but she was worse. The Grey Warden pulled her into a deep embrace.
'Relax (Take It Easy)' Mika. 3:44
The natural hot spring felt wonderful, it was that kind of place that nobody ever goes to. All the pain and the stench of dying was gone and Natia could just relax. She wasn't scared, or terrified and the last thing on her mind was to leave. She was going to take it easy. The dwarf sunk deeper into the water and a sigh of contentment escaped her lips. There was nothing that this spring could not do. No one was bothering her, no one was trying to kill her, no one was blaming her, no one was shooting flaming fire balls at her, no Darkspawn clawing at her body. This truly was the best thing on the surface world.
'Snakes And Ladders' Joss Stone. 3:35
"You can't do this to me Zev," Neria cried. "You're neither in, you're neither out. It's like you think this is all some kind of game." the Antivian tsked at her.
"The whole world is rushing by, you see? You have to play it as a game, no?"
"I don't want to play this game any more then! What am I giving my heart for?"
"You do not wish to play any longer?" Neria gave another wail.
"We're never going to take that last step together. I don't want to do this any more!"
'Shame," the assassin murmured. "Because I play to win." with that Zevran turned around and walked away.
'Find My Baby' Moby. 3:59
"I'm going to find my baby." Alistair growled to himself as he clung to the rocky ledge. He had nothing to live for anymore. Nothing to live for but the child that was conceived with Morrigan. The Grey Warden and Anora now ruled which left Alistair to the task of hunting down the witch and getting his child back. He was going to find the baby before the sun comes down. Sweat poured off of him and wiped it away with the back of his hand. The Templar did not look down, if he fell the drop would kill him. How long had he been searching? Months perhaps? He did not know. Alistair felt his stomach weakly growl for something, anything to eat. How he would kill for a piece of cheese.
