War Paint

Ellana Lavellan is a Dalish elf raised by the Avvar clan who killed her family. When Tyrrda Brightaxe begins gathering banners for her war against Thelm the Golden, Ellana's only wish is to prove herself before the Avvar gods. After sneaking in to the war camp at Skyhold, Tyrrda takes Ellana on as part of the army upon the advice of one of her advisers, the scholarly elf Solas.This is my imagining of the Tale of Tyrrda Brightaxe from the point of view of a Dalish elf who yearns to find her place in the world, and ends up finding the Dread Wolf.
