Why I should never click on unknown groups

My dear beasties,

this journal is supposed to hold some basic educational value. We will see.

You (probably) know never to talk to strangers, open mails from addresses that look fishy, avoid suspicious foodstuffs and whatever. But did your parents teach you not to click on DA groups you do not know?

Well, I am from this unfortunate age group who came too early.

Accidentally, I found myself screaming and running away from a certain DA group which shall not be named. Because, while fairly tolerant, there are standards all should recognise. Like, porn.

Especially porn involving such stars like Loghain, Varric, Sten, Wynne and the Architect.

Yes, you read correctly. I am leaving this as a word of warning. Do not click on foreign groups you haven't heard a word about from some reliable source, children dear.

Also of note, does anyone remember Imrek? Yes, this rat-looking guy who's sent by Loghain to seek alliance with Orzammar and eliminate any trace of Warden influence. In the game, he has, like, ten lines?

After a serious intake of spicy chicken, "Death's Turbid Veil" and the finals of the 17th International Chopin Piano Competition, he and his cronies grew into a bunch of comical characters, pushing our lil' merry group of misfits into the background as they argued about payment inconsistencies (among other things). I had a whale of a time writing them, although it was completely unplanned. I will be curious to see your reaction to Luc and his spellcasting "bro" - and their unlucky boss. That's what - among the innumerable other aspects - is wonderful about writing: you never know what truly happens until it does and you stare in disbelief at the black-spilt pages.

And to this person asking if there is a fitting song for a romanced Morrigan, well, try this:
