Something I did not pick up on before is that World of Thedas implies Alistair was sent to the monastery during Isolde's pregnancy--before Connor was born. Which means we actually can pretty closely pin down Connor's age, as he was born soon after Alistair was sent away--so in either 9:20 Dragon or early 9:21.

Arl Eamon was a neglectful manipulative piece of shit and I think it was very sexy and cool of Jowan to poison him actually

Modern!Dragon Age AU where Alistair is raised jointly by Maric, Fiona, and Duncan. Loghain and Teagan have a low-key rivalry about being Alistair's favourite uncle. Celia is best aunt. Cailan is on a mission to be the Best Big Brother In The Universe. Anora is Alistair's favourite (Anora is forever smug). Eamon is not allowed within a hundred feet of Alistair. Nothing bad happens. The End.

Everyone talks about Teagan sassing Anora, but shout out to Loghain for calling Eamon “old and fat” to his face

maybe i’m misreading the return to ostagar codex entries, but a couple of times i’ve seen people say they imply eamon was actually suggesting or supporting the cailan/celene match, and i don’t think that’s true at all?
Tumblr media
sure, eamon is definitely saying that cailan should put anora aside. but he’s also saying that he and cailan disagreed over the idea so badly that he hasn’t brought it up again since. this letter was written right before ostagar, so this is fully everything eamon was aware of in cailan’s lifetime. he hadn’t yet talked to cailan again about divorcing anora, and he had no idea cailan was now considering it. nor does eamon mention celene or orlais at all. instead he repeatedly stresses throughout his letter that the whole point of this is to keep ferelden united, the very last thing a match with orlais would do
the letter that truly suggests the cailan/celene match is the overly familar one written by celene speaking of a “permanent alliance between orlais and ferelden”. that’s directly to cailan, and nowhere is eamon’s involvement or oversight suggested. i really think this was cailan’s independent move

sometimes i think about how @wrdn-tabris and i have constructed this elaborate world where eamon and isolde's kids are mages because isolde has a lyrium snorting habit and may or may not be cheating on eamon with teagan and/or multiple templars (?). and then i wonder how the fuck we got here

Can Never Go Home Again
This series is a worldstate, meant to inform and create and influence the world of Thedas as I go into Dragon Age Dreadwolf. Which means I don't plan to Fade To Black after Trespasser. I'm still writing so god damned much on this series AND I have plans now for the Inquisition In Exile.
This story begins to set those plans. It hit me last night after I posted this story and went to work. This is the leadup to the next steps, after the Inquisition is forcibly disbanded by a furious one-armed abomination who knows the Wisdom of letting history remember the Inquisition as what it had done instead of what its Inquisitor was about to do.
It's also solidly in my current angst rut. Every mage is Nevermore Seen Again. This means a mage can never go home again, for if they try they find their families looking on in horror as a creature of magic and madness approaches them with open upturned hands seeking to taste their soul.
Connor has to try. Redcliffe will never forgive him but Eamon retired to Denerim.

Anyway here's the Guerrin timeline as best I can piece it together, if it's useful to anyone!
Updated 7/14/23 with corrections & additions.
~8:84 Blessed - Eamon is born. (The Calling - He's 15 at the time of the Battle of West Hill, which occurred in 8:99 Blessed.)
8:99 Blessed - The Battle of West Hill. Arl Rendorn Guerrin, Eamon's father, is killed in action. Maric Theirin is presumed dead but reappears in Gwaren, which is then taken by the rebels. The Battle of River Dane deals a decisive defeat to the Orlesian forces, though the conflict is not completely over. It will take several more years to completely drive out the occupying lords. However, Emperor Florian officially withdraws support for King Meghren.
9:02 Dragon - Eamon, 18, returns to Redcliffe to claim his place as arl, but find it still under Orlesian control, and works with the rebel forces to reclaim it. Isolde, the daughter of one of the Orlesian governors, is sympathetic to the rebels and becomes infatuated with Eamon, who does not return her feelings; nevertheless, she feeds information to the rebels, and chooses to stay in Ferelden after her family is driven out. Isolde is four years younger than Eamon, making her 14 at the time. (WoT v.2 p. 102, 106)
9:02 Dragon - Maric kills the usurper King Meghren in a dual, officially ending the occupation and winning Ferelden's freedom. (There is a noted discrepancy in the dates between the epilogue of The Stolen Throne, and World of Thedas vol. 1, the latter of which puts the duel at 9:00 Dragon. Given other events, the later date seems more plausible.)
~9:08 Dragon - Six years after their initial meeting, Eamon (24) meets Isolde (20) again in Denerim. They quickly become involved and are married. (WoT v.2 p. 103)
9:10 - Alistair is born to Fiona and King Maric. His parents give him up to be raised at Redcliffe Castle, inventing a story about his mother being a human serving girl. (The Calling.)
~9:20 Dragon - Isolde becomes pregnant with Connor after difficulty conceiving. This causes rumors about Alistair (10) being Eamon's bastard to resurface, and Eamon sends him away to a monastery to spare his wife's feelings. Connor is born soon after.
~9:29 Dragon - Short of taking his vows as a templar, Alistair (19) is conscripted into the Grey Wardens. (WoT v.2 p.79)
~9:30 Dragon - Connor Guerrin (10) shows signs of magic. Isolde hires an apostate, Jowan, to tutor Connor in secret. Eamon (46) is poisoned by Jowan and falls ill. (Origins.)
~9:31 Dragon - Following the Blight, Eamon decides to stay in Denerim, serving as an advisor to the throne, eventually declaring his brother Teagan the new Arl of Redcliffe. (Origins, WoT v.2 p.104)
?:?? Dragon - (If Connor is dead) Rowan Guerrin is born to Isolde and Eamon. After a difficult birthing, Isolde dies. (Potential Origins Epilogue slide.)
?:?? Dragon - Rowan Guerrin shows signs of magic and is sent to the Circle, though her father continues to visit her. (Potential Origins Epilogue slide.)

Fandom: Dragon Age (pre-Origins) Characters/pairings: Maric x OC Chapter: 6/8 Rating: T Chapter CW: pregnancy Fic summary:
Hoping to cool off his charged relationship with Queen Rowan, Maric Theirin has taken his son Cailan to Redcliffe under the guise of a royal progress to acquaint the prince with his future kingdom. When word comes from Denerim that the queen has fallen ill and that tensions are running high thanks to an impending Orlesian embassy, the pleasant trip loses its charm, and bad quickly turns to worse. The only comfort in this sea of madness comes in the form of Gwawr, a Chasind healer working in the castle kitchens. Well aware of his duties and determined not to take advantage, there is nevertheless something beguiling about her, and as their time together wears on, Maric finds himself facing a choice that could have dire consequences for himself, his family, and the kingdom he has struggled for so long to build. Or, how Maric met and fell in love with Alistair’s mother.
14th Guardian
My lord Arl Eamon,
Allow me to overlook the usual formalities. I regret not having a chance to speak with you before I left Denerim, but the importance of my words here cannot be understated. Perhaps it has already come to your attention that His Majesty, King Maric, has found regard in one of your servants: the herbalist who attended Prince Cailan in his illness during the summer. Perhaps what you do not know is the extent to which she has taken this fondness and enjoined the king to serve herself. I would go so far as to say she has acted in a manner not unheard of in these Chasind witches, and charmed him out of good sense.
It is not my desire to gossip about His Majesty’s affairs, but perhaps my lord has already seen the signs of warning in their conduct. This ill-advised infatuation has the potential to cause great damage to Ferelden, and to the state of Queen Rowan’s delicate health. It is my fear that, if she should learn of the affair, it will cause her great suffering not only in the anguish caused by knowledge of it, but also in the secondary effect of hastening the progress of her illness. I write to implore your aid in this matter, for your sister’s sake and for the good of the Ferelden she worked so hard to see freed. His Majesty must see sense before this woman turns his head completely to her whims.
I await your response and stand ready to heed my lord’s advice.
Faithfully,
Loghain Mac Tir, Teyrn of Gwaren
Read the rest on AO3!

Just because I am curious, why do you hate Arl Eamon? Lol
sorry i've been sitting on this for a bit, brain no work, lol
i am also sure others could explain this far more eloquently, and i know others already have, but also i do have a lot of feelings here so… (also i am terrible with tone in text so please know that i do just have a lot of emotions here and am at no point trying to come off as too over the top or aggressive or anything)
but anyway yeah, eamon "i am going to create a child who is so unloved and unwanted" guerrin is definitely not my favorite
i won't lie, i despise isolde far more for the fact she pretty much just hated alistair on sight purely for existing (i still scream every time she does the whole aggressive "what are you doing here" shit to alistair when you first meet her in redcliffe) while eamon was just a negligent pushover, but it still pisses me off to no end that eamon was charged with taking care of this child and then isolde came along as he was just like…nah, i'm good, i choose her, surely there will be no negative consequences to this child's psyche here (and i also find it a bit cringe that he would marry someone with so much disdain towards alistair to begin with; i mean who knows, maybe she hid that part in the beginning, but it very much has the same energy to me as when the kids hate the step-parent and the bio-parent just doesn't seem to care when they should 100% be putting their children first, if that makes any sense? and i get alistair wasn't actually eamon's kid and that it doesn't seem like he really had much choice about taking him in, but then how much of his own disdain was there already and how much more complicit in how isolde treated him is he? at this rate, would it maybe actually have been better if he'd never even tried to "raise" alistair?)
and the way alistair blames himself for the fact that eamon eventually just stopped visiting him in the chantry after they sent him away because he was sad and angry and acted out—which is honestly fair because he was a child who was straightup betrayed by his guardian—like eamon as the adult should be the mature one here, as alistair was, once again, a child… and yeah it was more on isolde as far as we can tell that alistair was just thrown to the wolves chantry to start with (the way "eamon guerrin bashing" was already an ao3 tag but i had to be the one to create an "isolde guerrin bashing" tag for my one alistair/warden fic is still wild to me, lol), but it really just bothers me so much that he met alistair's hurt and not knowing how to handle that hurt with basically just being like "okay i'm not wasting any more time here then bye"
i will also acknowledge there's potentially some fuckery here from bioware's continuity errors—eamon needing to hide his parentage because his existence coming as a result of king maric having cheated on queen rowan being in the da:o codex but then the calling giving us the background that rowan had already passed and fiona didn't want alistair to grow up burdened by the knowledge of his royal blood, which eamon then presumably went ahead and told him anyway since he still knew about it—so who knows how the story could have gone if they'd thought of the events of the calling earlier and if bioware could just be consistent about their own lore, but even with just the way alistair talks about his childhood in da:o alone i spent the game wishing i could end that motherfucker's life
long and short i just think the dude sucks and that alistair deserved better, and it is very much the guerrins' fault he may well never believe that

there’s enough (deserved) shitting on Eamon but it’s INSANE to me that i only just found out Teagan can apparently marry Kaitlyn (the girl from the Redcliffe chantry whose little brother ran off to get their grandfather’s sword)
this same girl who, if you talk to her after the battle in Redcliffe, mentions that she and her brother are both going to end up in an orphanage now that their parents are gone

Isolde and Teagan Guerrin, on Connor (and Alistair) at the Duke's estate in Mark of the Assassin. All variations. This dialogue only plays if MotA is played in Act 1, so 9:31, less than a year after the end of the Blight.
[Connor died, Isolde lived]
Perrin: How is your husband, Arlessa? I imagine the news of your son must have been terrible.
Isolde: We are at a party, Bann Perrin! This is no place for such dourness.
[Connor lived, Isolde lived (the ritual to enter the fade was performed by First-Enchanter Irving)]
Perrin: How is your son, Arlessa? Does Circle life suit him?
Isolde: He is well, thank you. He is glad to have proper tutors, and they say he is a very good student.
[Connor lived, Isolde died (the blood magic ritual to enter the fade was performed by Jowan)]
Perrin: How is your nephew, Bann Teagan? [if: Alistair dead]
Tegan: Connor is… a teenager now, Maker save us all. My poor brother is tearing his hair out dealing with the boy.
Teagan: He'll grow out of it. Or Eamon will kill him. Either one. [if: Alistair alive]
Teagan: Which one? Connor is well enough. He's almost through the most trying years.
Teagan: [Alistair king] Alistair, on the other hand, seems to be just entering them. Again.
Teagan: [Alistair exiled] While Alistair… that boy is going to make me old before my time.
Teagan: [Alistair warden] I haven't heard from Alistair in some time. But he's a Grey Warden. He should be able to look after himself.
