Sunshine Challenge 2020 #1

sunshine_challenge : Prompt 1: Red

Red reminds me of...(wait for it)...Dragon Age. Big surprise right? Actually thinking about it though opens up a well of ideas I haven't previously discussed (to anyone who isn't my best friend that has to listen to me rave about DA for hours on end).

( RED! )

These two things tie heavily into my Hawke character that I like to write fanfics about 😊 And I have a paragraph that relies on the Red themes in Dragon Age.

Meredith’s shrieking stopped when the lyrium closed her throat and solidified her body into stone. Red light peeked through spider cracks in her form like veins full of blood pulled to the surface. The shimmering light drew Aviel forward. He looked down at the husk kneeling on the Gallows floor and briefly wondered if he, too, would one day be consumed from the inside out. Like Meredith. Like mages who lost their lives to blood magic and demons.

Aviel is very special to me 😅 And I love exploring how both anger and love and all things red shape him 😊
