Is it just me or was anyone else more pissed at Endrin than Bhelen for the DN exile? I mean, Bhelen set it all up, granted, but his motives were very clear: he wanted the throne. Endrin never seemed to really like Bhelen all that much, relied on Trian, and adored the DN. Even so, once Trian died and Bhelen's bribery ensured the DN didn't even get a token trial before being fed to darkspawn (was he really that afraid that if she got a chance to defend herself the Assembly would ignore the bribes and find her innocent?) then Endrin was the
only person in Orzammar who could have overruled that decision. He chose not to but couldn't even be bothered to see her off before he more-or-less got her killed. Strike one.
When you meet up with Gorim again, he gives you a note from Endrin apologizing and saying that he didn't believe you were guilty but he didn't want another House to get the throne. That's a perfectly understandable motivation and the most logical thing to do in the sitution. Still, it sucks for the DN that he'd feed her, his favorite child, to the darkspawn just to avoid a scandal and as the only way there
would be a scandal would be if Bhelen was also involved, he knew that he did it to benefit the actual guilty party. Strike two.
Then, when you finally arrive back at Orzammar you find out that apparently for whatever reason (it could be because of what he did to Trian and the DN but since he already knew about that I think it's more likely he realized how progressive Bhelen was) he couldn't go through with putting Bhelen on the throne and had chosen Harrowmont instead. Sure there's no confirmation that Endrin chose Harrowmont but the note seems to indicate that he did and Harrowmont is far too old and traditional to suddenly decide to pull a coup, especially since his House only rose out of obscurity through his ties to Endrin. So basically Endrin never believed the DN killed Trian (regardless of whether she did or not) but he was willing to send her to her death with only a little better equipment then most condemned prisoners get and without a trial with her last memory of him being his ordering her arrest all for the sake of keeping the throne...and then at the last second he decides the throne isn't all-important after-all and he'd rather have a more traditional ruler. In that case, what the hell was the point in exiling her?!?! Endrin was the King so the only repercussion he would have faced would have been a different House potentially inheriting the throne, which he wanted at the end anyway. Strike three.
