 I really don't like how Bioware gave us the comdemd or scott free option or the comdemention for The mages and Templars..
Here I am in all of this asking.. where the hell is is  the Mediate or Middle ground Button in an all of this?

So... Im advocating for a middle ground for both the Templars.. Though I think this option is more biased to the mages' freedom..

Maybe I could convince Bioware to put this option in the story.. ya know.. because the world's gone to war.. and BOTH sides are just kinda unreasonable... I don't want another Imperium... or the mages to be locked up.. but what more can we do?

So....

I propose a middle ground in all this!

Mages should be free, but as free as the average ordinary citizens... Like citizens can't kill, or do anything illegal, and if they do, they would have the police or gaurd after them!

Templars and the chantry should make special laws and a mage trialing Council with the templars acting as the mage police and special task force is a mage turns criminal! Then the mage is Tried before the chantry council, and his judgement is decided.. like.. wheether to make him tranquil.. kill him.. or send him to the mages' prison... Like the a worse version of a circle...

But, all in all.. it needs to start slow...

like First, allowing Mages to exist the circle with a guard of Templars making sure they don't do anything bad... like they would all go to the tavern.. and the mage and templars could have some bonding time to make each see that both sides aren't so bad as they make it!

Then When Mages are Free, Make laws for them..

Like... Blood Magic is highly illegal.. and, No casting offensive spells in public or crowed Areas... and if you do cast an offensive spell in a public crowed area, then that person is charged 10 soveriegns and has to serve a week of community service of helping the chantry with the poor!

I just hope something like this could be added in the next edition of the story...

But if all of you BSN people have anything to add, by all means, do so! :wizard:

You forget the fact that being neutral means that you won't directly interfere with anything and can't negotiate a peaceful solution if it was available. Not to mention the fact that some might view your neutrality as not helping them and thus see you as a target ala Grand Cleric Elthina. You're the Champion of Kirkwall and already were influential in the city so you had to deal with issues relating with mages to keep the peace so you were already helping the issue whether you like it or not. When the Chantry was destroyed, the people would have been in uproar so you couldn't just sit back and let this go unpunished, and Meredith was already insane so you would've been attacked if you chose neutrality anyway.

Sometimes you simply can't mediate between two parties that are determined on fighting each other. Have you ever tried to stop a fight irl? Sometimes you can talk people down, sometimes both guys will hit you to continue fighting each other.

It's plain and simple and probably the story deserved something else, but it is also a possible and perfectly logic outcome.

Had Ser Thrask gone to the Champion instead of Grace to form his group of templars and mages working together, I can see the "middle ground" being a reality. I thug he was a good guy who understood both sides as a templar and the father of a mage. The Champion, has a popular figure (and possible apostate) who has gained the respect and trust of the people of Kirkwall, could have provided legitimacy for this group.
