Lyrium is dangerous at the very least. You can argue it is evil. That's the same argument about bloodmagic.Yrkoon wrote...
Lyrium is evil then. lolAlexXIV wrote...
It's ancient and if it makes people crazy it is obviously evil. .Yrkoon wrote...
Wait... this isn't true. Or at least you're stating an opinion as fact.AlexXIV wrote...
Yes and I tell you why even before I go to that link.
First off devs said this: DA2 is not about fighting an ancient evil like DA:O. Meep. Wrong. You fight Meredith possessed by an ancient evil.
We don't know what the hell the Idol is. You're assuming it's some living spirit or 'ancient evil" that takes over Merideth. But there's exactly Nothing in the game that points to this. It's an idol of lyrium. And lyrium isn't evil. it's an element that makes you crazy if enough of it it gets in your blood. We learn that in DA:O.
Makes people crazy? Check (see: 'lyrium addled" See: The Codex Entry for Lyrium. See: the crazy dwarf merchant in Orzamar).
Next up: Proof that posession occured with Merideth (your claim), rather than, say, Lyrium induced psychosis. Get to it.
It is the old phrase: Power corrupts, ultimate power corrupts ulitmately.
What the idol does is giving you power and at the same time loosening your morale code. This is bound to make people do evil things, no matter how good their intentions. For all we know Meredith could have been alright to the point she got her hands on the lyrium idol. I always wondered if using lyrium is really so much better than bloodmagic. You could see Lyrium as the life blood of the world. It flows in veins through the earth.
