A wardens mosaic


(Closed rp)
You know how there's a hero to every story a tale behind every mosaic someone who helped the helpless stood against all odds fought for peace this isn't that kinda story an it starts with a motto an a crest

"In peace Vigilance
In War Victory
In Death Sacrifice"

These were the nine words the order of the grey wardens stood by they upheld this motto it was a way of life for them the minute you pressed the cold silver of the Joining chalice to your lips an survived swallowing its contents you were one of them and this was your creed, your life, your death and your existence.


The one who started this wasn't a simple warrior, mage, or rogue, nor were they common, nobility or nomadic. They weren't born on Thedas, it was pure chance they were there during the beginning of the blight, that they could see a way to suppress the taint enough to make a difference, to create that final blow.


Many said she died with the first Archdemon, her and her Commander . Many said she didn't and that she would return to end the blight. No one knows the truth, can the truth be found in a simple memory awakened by destiny, no one knows.


Rose cursed under her breath as she tripped over one of the kids old toys. She comes back from heaven with the meeting's off all the creator gods and their council to find that no one did anything for the wedding that was a few weeks away. She went to the palace attic to find the center piece she originally made for Alice and Collin but it never made it to their wedding because Claire had one from their parent's wedding she wanted the couple to use and both Alice and Collin were for it. So Rose just tucked the one she made in the attic until Connor's wedding. But with the way things have changed now she needed to dig it up.


Tripping over a box Rose lost her balance and in trying to stop herself from falling she pulled the cover over an old portrait revealing the painted canvas. Looking up and seeing the portrait Rose gasped, she looked toward the plaque at the bottom and then back at the portrait. Her eyes changed color as she used her site to see the memory this portrait preserved

At first the memory seemed dull a man in a company of ten others were marching into the city the men stopping When the commander stepped forward the crowd gathered He removed his helmet he was rugged an handsome slightly disheveled but he held himself like a warrior his hair was black cut an neatly styled in a peak shape. His dark eyes often showed emptiness to his enemy's in battle seemed to pierce the very souls of his men. He met each gaze individually daring the men to crumble but also encouraging them to stay strong, all this done with no words leaving his tongue. He captured the attention of the crowd bustling with curiosity an the attention of her he spoke finally breaking the silence .

" I am Commander Nicholas Carinus I am here to ask the men of this city if anyone wish to join the grey wardens in our fight against the blight ?"
The crowd bustled but no man step toward she watched a hood on her head as he asked again with the same response she moved her way through the crowd standing in front .
" I will commander "
" an you are if I may ask?" He watched who was brave enough to bear such burden
She removed the hood her eyes a soft teal an her hair as black as night she smiled the crowd gasping at a women of nobility stepping up to join the wardens
" I am Alice Valerious sir an I wish to aid in the blight "
He looked at her in shock how could it be the only brave soul in this city was a women of nobility an a beauty to boot he scratched his head and sighed extending his hand
"Welcome aboard miss Valerious"
Alice smiled taking his hand shaking it
" it'll be an honor to serve as a grey warden commander "

The memory began to shake violently as the hands touched cracking like a mirror that had a rock thrown in it something was wrong the memory it was blocked rose covered her eyes her head pounding, whenever she opened them all she could see was darkness and smoke she felt the rush of a sudden calm touch the smoke lifting like a vale she took a moment to let her eyes focus on who it was only to see Sileny and felt sudden relief the shaking had subsided but the memory within the painting was blocked and broken on purpose questions swirled in her head why would Alice tear apart a memory an hide a painting.

“Sileny you’re the Guardian of the Mind and Memory,” Rose said looking at the silent Guardian. “Does Alice remember this, and if not why did she hide it?”

Sileny bid Rose to follow her handing her the centerpiece she was looking for and led her down back to the main hall where they placed the centerpiece. And then she led the younger Guardian to the police station giving one of the officers a note to have Rainer come out

Rainer came out an sighed giving the younger guardian the ok to lead him he found rose starring at the portrait an took in a deep frustrated breath " I guess even alice has secrets ..... "he looked at her giving him a look he knew all to well "You want me to send you into the memory don't you " he sighed holding up his palm " of course you do we've been friends long enough rose I know you I know you know the dangers of getting exposed so stay out of it no matter what an take a group with you you have two hours to prepare I need to find the timeline connected to the memory " he put a hand on her shoulder" she has to have a reason for keeping it from you rosey"

"Its not the keeping it from me I'm worried about Rainer," Rose said hugging herself. "Sileny said she's keeping it from herself. That's what I'm worried about."

Rainer looked at her he hadn't seen rose this concerned in so many years he looked at the painting running his hand over it a pulse echoed a pulse only he could feel " it was removed whatever memory goes with this painting it was removed ....broken like a shattered mirror Rosey she couldn't remember if she wanted to " He ran his hand over the painting trying to pinpoint the timeline an restore what was scattered
