I'm not one to normally comment, but I just had to here. I am absolutely loving this story! Elissa's character development; the sibling dynamic between her and Aedan; her relationship with Leliana - all just *chef kiss*.
Please keep updating because I really want to keep on reading!

I like your writing and this story overall!

My criticism so far would be this:
I really hope this talk (and the mages' tower) will lead to some character development, because Elissa's interaction are painful to read.

And I believe that you are thinking of Leliana as genuinely caring person, but to me she sometimes feels like really manipulating person who butt's into things that are really non of her concern :/

I like it

Excellent!

I like the description in this chapter.
Nice character depiction too...

This is pretty good, I actually like the storytelling and writing. Keep that up
