บท 42: Arbor Wilds and Sealing Corypheus

Daveth runs around Adamant Fortress with the other looking for their friend finding him at last. Faren was in a cell waiting for punishment for disobedience against Clarel. "What happened up there?" asks Faren and Daveth says, "The Inquisition and our ex-commander taking care of business. Now let me set you free to take you back to Morrigan and your kid." "Are they alright?" asks Faren and Daveth says joking around, "They look and smell better than you. Also yes they are fine in Skyhold you will also come to like it there until our enemy is dead."

Then both reunite with the rest. After a week of marching, they felt like when they were back in the old days fighting for their lives and to end the blight. Telling each other stories about their lives while they weren't together. Catching up with everything.

Morrigan and Kieran hearing from a scout that the troops were returning run out to look at the gates to see if Faren was between them all. Logan and his companions entered together and then Logan picks Faren up like a kid and throws him up and catches him and Faren says, "Let go of me Logan I'm not a kid." "Come on its fun," says Logan joking about it and everyone in the group laughs while Morrigan and Kieran run over and then Logan let go of Faren who gets hugged by them. "Don't do that ever again," says Morrigan and Neria says, "You got soft who would have thought I would see the mighty Morrigan hug a person that isn't herself." "Oh shut up," says Morrigan looking at Neria and both begin to laugh.

"Why do we not feel the Calling?" asks Faren and Daveth says, "Logan put a giant seal around the ground making us invisible for Corypheus so he can't control us until everything is over." "Now we only need to wait for it to be over," says Neria and they all walk to the barracks made for the Wardens in Skyhold. "So what will be the next thing?" asks Neria looking at Logan, who says, "Don't look at me I know that the next battle will be important but it is not me who commands here I'm like you all just a simple soldier."

Then a scout came saying, "Logan, Abigail, and Morrigan you are needed at the War Table." Then the scout leaves and Daveth says, "Yes just a simple soldier I can see that." "See you all later then," says Logan and he leaves with Abigail and Morrigan towards the War Table inside Skyhold where they meet with Leliana, Cullen, Josephine, and Ellana.

"I heard you met Shura in the Fade is that correct," says Leliana and Logan says, "Who do you think can make a giant demon disappear as its nothing with just a snap of his fingers. 'If we were somewhere else they might have said Thanos but here it isn't a thing.' Now, why are we here for?" "We don't know what Corypheus could want now that we took his Demon Army and prevented the death of Empress Celene," says Ellana and Logan says, "In the Arbor Wild there is an Eluvian they are pretty rare I destroyed one before but the wife of my brother-in-law reconstructed one the same goes for Morrigan here. With these Eluvian you could enter the Fade too if you have the key that's it. Merrill's Eluvian isn't connected since she doesn't have the key but Morrigan's can be used just that she won't use it for now because of her mother. There is also one in the Arbor Wild where Corypheus will be going for but not only for the Eluvian also for the Vir'abelasan a very powerful but also harmful thing. It is a lake with power at least it looks like it but the one who jumps into it will be bound to Mythal forever. You will have every memory that came before you and you will hear the voices of these before you talking to you all their wisdom passed down to you. So we can't let him get it."

"So be it in three days we march towards the Arbor Wilds. Prepare everyone it will be the last battle to destroy his plans to become a god," says Ellana and Cullen says, "Should we use the Wardens in this?" "It would be best to uses everything we have. Every last thing in our power for this battle since it will be hard. Also, not only the Red Templars will be there but also the Guardians of the Temple we are going." says Logan and Ellana asks, "Dalish?" "No like said Guardians they are like the elves of old. Immortal bound to the Vir'abelasan and to Mythal they go to sleep and awaken when someone approaches the Temple if they pass the tests given they are allowed to continue showing respect to the tradition and their God. Now the hard part someone needs to drink it and become its vessel." says Logan and Ellana says, "Who do you suggest?" "Ellana you should do it," says Logan and Leliana says, "Are you crazy with everything you said it looks like it will be harmful and she would be bound to a God."

"If she doesn't do it then we will lose I'm already bound to a God does it look that harmful," says Logan and Leliana says, "Yes I remember how you began to bleed from your eyes after the blight." "But Shura and Mythal are different don't forget it. Shura is a born God while Mythal is an elf mage that was looked at like a God by the elves back then like Solas they can die," says Logan and now Ellana asks, "How do you know she won't harm me?" "Because I know her pretty good we crossed path often and talked with each other. Also, she is known as the God of Justice by your people isn't she," says Logan and Ellana sighs and says, "That right but you met her before you said where?" "In the Korcari Wilds," says Logan and Leliana was the first of the four to say, "You don't mean Flemeth do you?" "Yes, she is it. I helped her long ago and with killing Solas I saved her live like promised. She isn't like you think a crazy witch. Flemeth is calculated and keep secrets there you might be right but she isn't either good nor evil." says Logan looking at them.

"What do we do?" asks Josephine and Ellana says, "Why not Morrigan?" "Because I'm on the run from her for a long time," says Morrigan and Logan says, "We have no time to discuss this now just know she will not use you as Shura uses me. We need to move now." "*sighs* So be it then let's move out," says Ellana and Cullen send a scout out to prepare the troops to march again.

After marching 4 days and meeting with the Orlesian army in the Arbor Wilds. "How is the situation?" asks Ellana and Cullen says, "We can confirm that the Red Templars are here you should take this after Arcanist Dagna looked into the thing we found in the Temple of Dumat she found a weakness in Samson's armor that could help you win the fight. Also, there is a third enemy like Logan said the Guardian awakened to defend the temple so Godspeed Inquisitor."

Ellana with Cassandra, Dorian and the Iron Bull accompanied by Logan, Ryu, and Morrigan moved towards the temple fighting the Red Templars and the Guardian, while the other helped making a way for them. Killing Red Templars and Guardians that attacks them. Arriving at the doors of the Temple of Mythal they enter and they have to clear some riddles to open the next door to catch up to Corypheus they clear it and enter seeing Corypheus fighting the Guardians then he gets blown apart by a mechanized that the Guardians used and retreat inside the Temple while the Red Templars follows them inside then Ellana and her group followed only to see how a dead Warden that was under Corypheus influence suddenly changed into Corypheus itself. Scaring the group except for Ryuu who saw worst in his training and Logan who know that it would happen. Then the same dragon appeared that also appeared in Adamant.

Logan says, "Ryuu and I will take care of this you five of the rest. Counting on you that the Red Templars don't get it. Escape with the Eluvian after you are finished here." "Just be careful don't want to tell your wife you died here," says Ellana and Logan and Ryuu begin to laugh and Ryuu says, "I can finally go wild again." Ryuu changed into his dragon form and charged at the other dragon while Logan walks over to Corypheus and says, "Long time not seen. How many times do you think can you still revive." "The puny human from my prison you thought you kille-" says Corypheus, who gets interrupted by Logan, who says, "Nah not really I knew you were still alive and that you took over Larius body after your other body died as you did before. I know everything and that throne you saw isn't empty I already met its owner before. He just didn't like you much that's why you were sent back. What would you do when someone breaks into your house? Now let's begin this fight I almost sound like the villain here."

Logan then takes out his sword and fight Corypheus. He rushes at Corypheus and slashes his swords against Corypheus. Corypheus tries to block it with his arm only to find out he couldn't block it and his underarm falling to the ground. "I would not try this again maybe there will be no next time then," says Logan joking about it and begins his slaughter after destroying this body Corypheus jumped to another body and escapes while the dragon escapes and Ryuu returns into his human form and says, "You sure about letting them go?" "Not really but what can we do let's hope they finish fast. Let's go home," says Logan and both disappear from there.

Arriving at Skyhold they wait until the others arrived. "How was it?" asks Logan and Morrigan asks, "Yes now what do we do?" "Well we call for your mother at her shrine and we should get what we want," says Logan and Ellana asks, "What would that be?" "A dragon for yourself so Ryuu and the dragon can kill the Archdemon looking dragon while we take care of Corypheus well better said I do it this time definitely and you get all the glory to your name," says Logan and Ellana asks, "And what about your glory?" "I had it once don't really need it once we are over here I will try to make Leliana the next Divine," says Logan and Morrigan asks, "Why her?" "Equality for all be it Mage or Elf Dwarf Qunari everyone will be equal to a normal Human. That was what at least my world tried to be, hope this world can succeed at it," says Logan and grabs Ellana and Morrigan and leaves right away.

They appear in the Arbor Wilds but not near the temple but somewhere more isolated from the world lost in time. "Now we are here I will be there until this is over," says Logan while pointing to a corner and goes over there. Logan observed them when Flemeth appears out of nowhere and talks to them. Then she disappears and appears next to Logan and she says, "How have you been Logan I heard from a bird that you have children now." "Yeah I have children all special for me and another is coming maybe. Now I took care of a problem for you Solas is dead well his body his soul I don't even want to think about," says Logan and Flemeth says, "I could feel when his soul left this world. Now, what are you going to do?" "Kill Corypheus and take the orb and exchange it for something maybe I don't really need it and it is better, that I have it then someone else don't you think so." "Yes, that would be good if you leave it somewhere out of reach. It's time to say goodbye then I hope we meet again," says Flemeth and disappears and Logan only says, "Maybe."

Then a dragon appears and Logan hits it hard then it submits to Ellana and it flies away again. "Will it come back?" asks Morrigan and Ellana says, "Yes I could talk to it. It will come when we will need it." Logan then drags them back to Skyhold. The next two days nothing happened but the third-day the scare in the sky looked like it was about to open again and Logan says, "Ready for the final fight." "Always even though I won't fight it," says Ellana and Logan says, "Don't worry now I will finish it as fast as possible just hold everyone back until I return."

The arrived at the Valley of Sacred Ashes and Logan says, "It's been long since I was here." Then Corypheus stood in front of them and when he sees Logan he says, "This time it won't end like the last time since I have the orb with me" "*yawns* Can we begin." says Logan and Ryuu changed and attacks Archdemon looking dragon then another dragon appears and helps Ryuu. Logan runs forward and attacks Corypheus. But Corypheus dodges him and uses the orb in his hand to attack Logan while saying, "You might be a Warden but even they can't survive such an attack with this much corruption." "Oh, really I should have told you before I'm no human after all," says Logan walking at Corypheus as if the corruption isn't doing anything to him and continues while transforming into his Devil Trigger form saying, "I'm a demon how do you want to corrupt me when I'm corruption myself."

Then Logan attack and cuts Corypheus arm with the orb of the body then Logan takes the soul stone out and finishes Corypheus being while the Archdemon looking dragon falls from the sky dead because of Ryuu's attack while both souls enter into the stone. Then Logan picks up the orb and says, "Could I sell this for some AP? What do you say Justice?" "That I don't know I don't have a sell function in me," says Justice and Logan sighs and says, "Let go back store it away until we meet with Shura again."

Both then leave for the exit while Justice disappears again. Once there Ellana asks, "Is it over?" "More then over he and the dragon got sealed and the orb is destroyed so don't worry about it," says Logan then they return victorious. In Skyhold Logan then says, "Should I seal the Anchor for you or do you want to keep it. Be warned if you keep it in two years it will begin to hurt you and you will have to amputate it." "I will keep it for a while. How can I contact you when I want it sealed? Just send a letter to Varric he will know where to find me." says Logan then he retreats and begins looking for his family.

"Is it time to leave?" asks Gabriel and Logan looks at them and says, "Yes it's time to leave we are going back to Kirkwall I think we did enough they can take care of the rest." "Not fair you had almost all the fun," says Gabriel and the other two nodded to that making Abigail laugh seeing this and Logan says, "Yes but sooner or later we will have to fight again so don't worry. Time to say goodbye don't you think so too Leliana?" "How did you know?" says Leliana and Logan says, "You are the Spymaster I know you would have an eye for me once everything is over we will leave after saying goodbye to everyone don't worry. Also, I need you to become Divine what do you need to do for that I will leave you this clone here he will help you with everything until you become it then he will disappear." "Thank you," says Leliana and she leaves with the clone while the family goes to the party and say there farewell to their friends. And they leave for Kirkwall.
