Then, Now and Always is a Motherland: Fort Salem Sarah Alder/Tally Craven story by nomisunrider. Roughly divided into three arcs, the story follows Tally and Sarah following Tally's kidnap and injury at the hands of the Camarilla. A slowburn canon divergence AU that explores topics of forgiveness, anger, redemption, and disability in the Motherland: Fort Salem universe.
nomisunrider also put together a playlist for the work.
Summary
Five years after the re-emergence of the Camarilla, Sergeant Tally Craven goes MIA in the Michigan Upper Peninsula. With the disappearance of Tally Craven, General Sarah Alder finds herself facing old ghosts and even older wounds. On the twilight of witchkind, Alder and Tally fight a war, reopen a connection long since abandoned, and find out just how much more they have left to give.
Reactions and Reviews
I truly don’t think I will ever recover from this absolutely incredible story. I mainlined it in two days and I wouldn’t trade my lack of sleep for the world. You have crafted something beyond any words I could use to describe it, or my love for it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so SO much for writing this. To borrow words from the musical Wicked- this story will stay with me forever. Like a handprint on my heart.[1]
There are not words to express how much of a journey this fic has been. I'm glad I trusted you to give us a happy ending, and I appreciate that it didn't come easily. This fic is an investment, and one worth the time. Thank you for sharing this work with us all and giving us such a better time line of events than what the show was able to give us. You took a world that was half finished and created such rich lore and world building. This fic is one or the best I've ever read, and also probably the longest lol. I'm so impressed with how you were able to build it and execute it, and I look forward to seeing what you do in the future, if anything. But rest for now, you deserve it![2]

I would say give Then, Now, and Always a try by Nomisunrider. Set slightly in the future and is a continuation of the series but is SUPERB. Very long.
