Life Excerpt

He could see him fighting several foes a few meters away. It was certainly a marvel to watch The Iron Bull fight. His skin and leather armor was glistening with blood. And Mahanon knew that it wasn't just enemy blood. A lot of it would be Bull's. The fact that Bull fought harder and more intensely the more injured he got was something that both disturbed and impressed Mahanon. It also worried him. He loved that big brute of a Qunari, and didn't want to lose him. At times like these he regretted not going the healing route. But he'd always had an affinity towards storm and inferno magic. Spirit magic hadn't even been on the map for him.
One of the assassins managed to get close to him as he was distracted by Bull. Mahanon felt a sharp pain in his side as he was stabbed. The perpetrator was quickly dispatched as Mahanon severed the assassin's torso from his lower body using a spirit blade that had appeared as an extension of his arm.
As he started to head towards Bull he could see one of the assassins getting ready to attack his lover from behind. To a spectator it probably looked as if Mahanon disappeared and that the assassin then spontaneously exploded. But what really happened was that Mahanon made himself go out of phase, moved extremely fast over to exactly where the assassin was and then phased back in again while inside the assassin. This released so much energy that the man exploded. Bits and pieces of the assailant splattered all around Mahanon as well as on Bull's back.
As the adrenaline was leaving his system Mahanon became all too aware of the stab wound he'd taken earlier. And in combination with how exhausted he was proved to be too much. Everything started spinning and right before everything went black for him he could see Bull's concerned face.


He awoke at dusk which told him that he'd been out for several hours. He could hear the crackling of a fire and as he turned his head and looked in the direction of that comforting sound he saw Bull putting more fuel on the campfire. Mahanon groaned as he tried to sit up. The pain in his side was excruciating. Bull knelt down next to him.
-"Sorry, boss. I can't really do much about the pain. Medicine isn't exactly my forte..." He scratched his head. Mahanon smiled at him.
-"It's okay, Bull. I'll manage somehow." Bull smiled back, but it was clear on his face that he was really concerned. "What is it?" Bull looked at the fire for a few seconds before meeting Mahanon's gaze again.
-"The weapon was poisoned, and it's stopping your blood from coagulating..." Mahanon sighed.
-"So, in other words I'm bleeding to death?" Bull nodded.
-"Unless we can get you to a healer. Fortunately I know of one that lives not too far from here."


After they had a quick meal Bull all of a sudden lifted him up. It caused Mahanon to groan a bit, but he was too curious to dwell on that.
-"What are you up to, Bull?" The big guy smiled.
-"You'll see soon enough." Mahanon rolled his eyes and sighed.
-"You know I'm not a fan of surprises."
-"Mhm, but I know you'll appreciate this." Bull carried him through a bit of the forest before reaching a clearing that ended with a cliff.
-"Are you planning on getting rid of me?" Mahanon chuckled, then groaned again. "Remind me not to laugh until this is healed." Bull laughed. Then he sat down close to where the ground cut off into nothingness, with the elf in his lap.
-"So...what's the surprise?" He asked Bull who responded by shaking his head a little then motioning with his head towards the cliff. Mahanon turned his head and looked in that direction.
-"What? I don't see...Oh, wow..." It took him a few seconds to realize what Bull meant. Before them the landscape stretched out as far as the eye could see. And all of it was bathed in the light of the setting sun. It was like a masterful painting. Mahanon smiled and leaned his head against Bull's shoulder. Now, that was the kind of surprise he could get used to.
-"You've done it yet again, my love." Bull moved his head a little so that he could look down on Mahanon's face.
-"Done what, exactly?"
-"You knew exactly what I needed right now. And you delivered on it." Mahanon tilted his head up and kissed Bull on the chin. "As you always do." Bull smiled.
-"Anything for you, kadan."
