This is not a complete story, in that it skips or glosses over much of the game’s plot. So if you are not familiar with the Dragon Age Origins game, you may become a little lost. It also contains SPOILERS, should you ever decide you want to play the game. If you are familiar with the game, this format might be to your liking, as it just gets to the heart of the story, and doesn’t re-hash the whole plot.
This also varies from the game — it is the version of the game I was playing in my head while playing Valorien. Oddly, I seemed rather in tune with the game and foreshadowing events in it. Though at times, I had to make up stuff I did not know — for example, how King Maric died. Therefore, expect that it might stray from iron-bound Dragon Age canon, and take that with a grain of salt.
