Description

I hear the darkspawn  have still not gone away? They are like houseguests who overstay their welcome, no? I am saddened you have to deal with such business without me. I must deal with the Crows, but when I return to you, not even sharp razors will be able to separate us!

Until then, you remain in my dreams. Especially the naughty ones.

Yours always,

Z .

It was an instinct to crush sheet of paper and with it those uncaring, meaningless words, so casual, without any trace of deeper feeling, like she was only one of his many conquests.
"You damn assassin, I need you  here" She looked at the letter, her face expressed heartache and disappointment, and somewhere deeper was this insecurity, gnawing at her soul. She asked herself many times, if it is wise to love him. The answer was one, that her heart could not accept.
Between darkspawn, traitorous nobles and Nathaniel Howe, she did not know if this feeling had any chance to flourish. Maybe it did not, maybe Zev knew it all along...



This piece expresses my disappointment with romance part in DA Awakening or lack of it.

I actually loved that letter - it's so in character for Zev to completely mask what he truly feels beneath casual banter, and trust you to know the truth.

The letter was fine, I'm just angry because in Awakening there is no option for romance.

And in my story, after The Blight, Zev disappeared, leaving note that he must settle some unfinished business in Antiva. So I guess, my Cousland can be a little angry.

Exactly my thoughts about that letter. (And Nathaniel Howe ) I'm also working on a thingie inspired by this situation... Quite distressing, really.
Her face is very expressing, and I totally understand her, my mage had the inclination to tear it into tiny pieces as well.

I know it's not Zev fault ( I blame Biower ), but I was so frustrated with his cameo in DA Awakening that I push his beloved warden into Howe strong arms.

Yep, it's not mainly the letter itself - it is the fact that he is not there to help. (Though he might have some serious issues in Antiva too, but that is up to the personal headcanon, I guess. )
