Summary:
First part to a bundle of fics (varying sizes) to a dungeons and dragons au for Far Cry 5. There isn't truly a main character in this so take that as you will.
It really is short so if you don't want to go to ao3 there's the whole thing under the cut. This whole this is an experiment so let me know what you think, constructive criticism is appreciated.
They say she appears when you are at your most vulnerable, she whisks you to her brothers and you do not return the same. Something changes about you, something is different now.
He's trudging along, worse for wear, escaping imprisonment from the beast of the mountains, he prays to his God that what he had to do will be forgiven. He prays there is hope where he is going.
He heard of a safe haven from the angle, the beast, and the Baptist, no one warned him of the siren that stands in his way now.
In the distance he hears... bells? No- chimes, hooves crunching in the dirt, and a woman humming. Mist surrounds him and floating lights dance in his vision. A feeling of calm engulfs him, he almost doesn't notice the ever-present feeling of unease gripping his soul. It tells him to run, to hide, to get far away from it. He can't, he instead turns to the direction of the humming.
A woman with long blonde hair, and green eyes approaches on a white horse. She wears a white dress that almost floats, she looks ethereal. A gentle smile plays on her face.
Are you lost, little dove?
Her voice coos to him, and he almost cries, he is lost. Of course he is. There is no map, no compass, he can't eve see the stars. He tells her this, and she looks at him concerned. This feeling is the most comfort he's been given all day.
She reaches out a hand to him in response.
I can make sure you never feel lost again. All are welcome in the Bliss. All can be found in it.
He hesitates, even as he feels the joy he feels scared, why is he so scared? What could possibly be wrong? He asks her what the catch is. She giggles, like the very idea of there being a catch is silly. Her laughter is like bells.
So long as you have faith, you may walk the path without fear. Without pain.
Her hand is still outstretched. He is injured, and sore, and so so fucking tired. If all it takes is to walk...
He takes her hand she floats up, and he flies with her. Pain leaving him as he flies.He takes her hand she floats up, and he feels himself flying with her. He closes his eyes as he does, at peace.
He is never seen again.

So the “it’s gotta effect our mcs in someway or most of the audience won’t care” thing applies to most story beats, but anyways-
(Disclaimer: this is just me brainstorming at 4 am cuz I can’t sleep)
(Just a work in progress idea) Imagine if we got to follow Theresa and Siegfried’s dreams? Like, maybe Theresa’s is just basically Cooking With Valkyries, and Himeko, Otto, and Cecelia are all alive and they just get to hang out with each other again. Otto is just a regular mischievous grandpa with no ill intent, St Freya is just a normal highschool, and all her students have to worry about is their upcoming midterms instead of the end of the world. Theresa only starts to notice somethings up when a second Kiana appears. Somehow, Siegfried and Theresa find each other and realize that they’re the only two people that are actually real in their now merging dream, so they decided it’s time to haul ass out of there and find their real kids/students. Unfortunately, the path out is the memories of each of their loved ones deaths with a heavy focus on the parts that they feel guilty about.
For Cecelia, maybe Siegfried resents himself for not being their with her and later “loosing” their biological daughter, and Theresa feels she could’ve prevented the whole Sirin incident in the first place if she acted against Otto sooner. With Himeko maybe Theresa regrets not looking for her, or that maybe she could’ve survived if they’d gotten to her sooner, or maybe just wishes she could’ve ever found Himeko’s body and given her a proper burial. And Otto… oh boy, Otto. He was a terrible person and they both know he’s a terrible person, but he’s still family to both of them. He raised Theresa and helped bring together Siegfried and Cecilia (even if it was to forward his own goals), plus he’s a member of one of the three major houses, so Siegfried has probably known him his whole life. They probably both have a mixture of fond memories, ingrained respect from childhood, and a certain level of resentment towards Otto, and a writer who’s thought about this more than I have could probably think of a scenario where’d they’d have to confront all that + his death and their new found responsibility to lead the new generation.
Didn’t the Herrscher of Bindings ability have something to do with locking people in dreams (or was that just PE HoC)? Either way, maybe have Theresa gain binding on the way out. Also maybe instead of having Grey Serpent guarding the dreamscape, it’s Hare and they gotta fight her to get out
Imagine if we got to see Kevin’s dream and have him break out of the dream by realizing that the future Dr.MEI planned for him isn’t actually something that’s been good for him. Idk, I just want nice things and character development for Kevin
TLDR: Ara Ara AI-chan was a mistake, Mihoyo should’ve just let Theresa and Siegfried figure this shit out on their own, and Hare should’ve been their enemy to face, not Bronya’s.
