I think he would've felt very guilty. I dare say he felt pretty bad about the whole thing anyway. Which reminds me, can anyone remember if he says anything to Hawke about his/her loss? My minds gone blank.
i thought for sure he did, but i cant remember what he said....i could be mistaken as well

I can't remember if he offers his condolences for just a dead/Wardened Bethany/Carver or for Hawke's mother as well?

He does, but I can't remember exactly what it is he says. IIRC he doesn't mention anything about mages one way or the other, it was just an expression of sympathy to a friend.

Hmmm. I was trying to find a pic of Cullen angry face from when he was taking Bethany to the Circle.
I was like , "Over my dead body, Templar!!!" Rawrz, and all that. And he stepped up like, "Yeah, Rawrz back at ya, Biaotch!" Lol.
That particular rogue playthru has diff Cullen feel to it. It's difficult for those Hawkes to really look at him. Cuz all they see is the Templar that dragged their sister off to the Circle. And yet there's still that attraction.
Tension. Tension everywhere.
Here ya go!

And Bethany's like:
"Please Hawke, this is what I want!"
... There's no denying, the girls got good taste!

Yankee23, welcome back!
and... you know, I don't remember him saying anything, so if someone can recall, that would be great. I would have said he doesn't. I mean, Sebastian barely mentions anything (just his putting a remembrance at the Chantry banter), and he's a companion.

I'm on Act 2 in my current game, so I shouldn't be far off hitting that quest. I'll pay a visit to the Gallows straight after and see if he says anything.

So, got inspired by your question, Lola! Plot bunny wouldn't let go.
Marian Hawke didn’t know how long she had sat on her bed, staring listlessly at the wall, when she heard someone clear their throat. Looking up with only mild curiosity, she saw Cullen standing in the door.
His brow was furrowed and he seemed to avoid looking directly at her as he fidgeted on the threshold. He was wearing a wine red tunic with the sword of mercy embroidered in gold thread over his heart, suggesting he must be off-duty.
She looked up at the window to notice for the first time that it was dark. What time is it? she wondered. She thought for a moment, frowning. What day is it? She shook her head. She didn’t know. She didn’t care.
She pulled her knees up to her chest, wrapping her arms around them, and continued her silent perusal of the empty wall, the crackling fire, the shadows dancing alone.
Cullen cleared his throat again, but she had satisfied her curiosity about him. Now she just wanted to be left alone. “H-Hawke, you have my deepest condolences for your loss. Can I come in?”
Her eyes narrowed and she glanced at him, shrugging. Taking this as approval, he stepped hesitantly across the room to stop a few feet away.
“I also wanted to apologize. The Order should have done more to avoid this tragedy. Perhaps… perhaps if we had better supported Ser Emeric’s investigation, the perpetrator would have been caught sooner. I take full responsibility for our failings.”
“Thank you for the official visit, Knight-Captain. You can go now.” Her voice sounded listless and creaked a little from lack of use. Strange. She dropped her head down to rest her forehead against her knees. After a minute or two, she realized that he was still there.
She raised her head to look at him, puzzled. “I’m not here officially,” he blurted. “I wanted to make sure that you were all right.”
“I’m fine.” She turned back to the wall.
He wet his lower lip. “Marian, I want you to know… I will do everything within my power to make sure nothing like this ever happens again. I will make Kirkwall safe. Make you safe. I want—”
“Cullen,” she interrupted. “Stop hovering.”
“If… if you really want me to leave, then—”
“Sit down.”
“Sit?”
She sighed. “Just sit down.”
He sank down next to her on the bed, sitting right at the edge with his hands placed awkwardly on his knees like he didn’t know where else to put them. She watched his eyes darted around the room before finally settling back on her.
The corners of her mouth inched up into a sad smile. Well, almost a smile. “You don’t have to fix it.”
He opened his mouth again, but she said, “You don’t. You can’t.” A flutter of emotion started to bubble up inside her, something she’d held at bay. It continued to grow inside, suddenly threatening to choke her.
“I need to try,” he insisted in an earnest voice. “Marian… I’m so sorry.”
“Shh,” she said, feeling her eyes get hot. She startled him by leaning over and laying her head down in his lap.
“Marian…”
“Shh,” she repeated, shutting her eyes tightly, but not before a scalding hot tear squeezed through, dripping down her cheek and onto his trousers. A hand hesitantly touched her hair, stroking it lightly. Then it all caught up with her, everything she’d successfully locked away, and the sobs started to wrack her body.
She didn’t know how long they sat way. Even when her tears ran dry, he continued silently stroking her hair until finally a new day had dawned.

Oooo good find!
I know DG tweeted a few days ago about watching a video in a meeting that impressed him. I also recall a couple of the other devs mentioning something similar. Man, could you imagine if they did release a trailer within the next few days? The fans would break the internet LOL!

So here's the Tweet in question by Manveer Heir regarding the video:
"I just saw a 10 minute video of Dragon Age III: Inquisition. Some really beautiful, amazing looking stuff! Great job by that team. #DAIII"
And here's the tweet from Mark Darrah:
"12gb! Well, I guess I'm gonna fry the connection for a few hours."
I dunno if the two are related, but the fact that there's a DA3 video in existence is good to know! Hopefully it's not just for people within the games industry. Maybe they're just getting bits 'n' pieces ready for when they do finally decide to start showing us stuff? A trailer doesn't usually last for 10 minutes, does it?
