Since I dont see anyone doing the same or a thread stickied to discuss it I will give my review!

I started this DLC with my Warrior Princess Hawke who is aggresive but kind to her Warden sister Bethany and will become the Viscount of Kirkwall and unite with Rivalmanced Sebastian in Starkhaven.

Going in decked out with my Armor of the Fortress from Legacy DLC I was stylin and Duke Prosper knew it!

I find all the parts to attract the Wyvern, help a guy find his dogs, get killed by a sky horror 5 times and finally snag my Wyvern. Then Mr. Fancy Pantz frenchie shows up trying to steal my kill and I annihilate him. I tell Duke Prosper I dont care and he goes free.

At the Castle courtyard there is a big party in place. We have to find a key but knowone seems to have it. I find Bann Teagan with Lady Isolde and he says hes there because King Allistair and Anora are busy. I meet Lady Elegant who is there for business, I meet Senerschal Bran with Unisex elf girlfriend, and I meet Leliana.

Leliana and Tallis seem to have a hidden agenda so I stay suspicious.

We finnally find the key after the 10th time and after I make my wishes in the fountain. Lady Hawke seduces dukes son lol.

I stealth my way through then we get thrown in prison anyway, yay.

Tallis goes on about how shes with the Qunari and wants to prevent some political incident. We escape,Bethany remarks on how Im with Sebastian in a cutscene and smiles, I kill some crazy mimes with daggers, solve all the puzzles and we come back to the forest.

Mr. Frenchie farts in your general direction comes back and trys to kill me and fails hard. I get a sexy blue and yellow gothic shield.

Tallis kills Tal Vishoth and we come to her Qunari pupil and Duke Prosper exchanging secrets at the top of a cliffside ruin. The Qunari wants to give Duke Prosper a list of all the Qunari agents or sleeper cells or something in Thedas but he doesnt know what he has, wanting more military strength. Duke Prosper kills the Qunari leader with his Wyvern and then we stop him. I try to pull him up from the cliff but he tries to swipe at my feet with a dagger. So he slips and falls to his death.

Tallis takes the scroll that has the names I ask her for it, she says no. I see that there is an option to kill her but dont take it. She gives me the Jewel of the Many which gives +3 in every attribute and goes on her mary way. Cassandra is dumbstruck and Varric says "What do I know, I just tell stories" THE END

Score 8/10
Replayability: HIGH
How this will effect the grand scheme of things I have no clue

Also Bioware added Murlocks from World of Warcraft to kill............yay

So Tallis isn't a permanent companion. 'Swell' ../../../images/forum/emoticons/andy.png
I take it there's no  ditching of that ridiculous
time limit for stealth...
... no don't tell me - I'll pass anyways because the
darn direct money transfer has hickups to no end
- no bioware points purchase possible for me.

I didn't find the mimes anywhere or the extra puzzles and god damn it seems Fenris romance got shafted AGAIN because Bethany made no remark about Fenris and my Lady Hawke - and yes, I had both Bethany and Fenris in my party.

I flirted like mad the whole way with Talis but either she's not into chicks - a first for DA2, lol - or the fact that Fenris kinda growled a bit here and there may have turned her off, just a bit, lolol.

That's the one. If you bring along your romance (a romance other than Isabela, that is), they will warn Tallis off that particular path.

The statues are a quest for Isabela if you bring her along.

On pc, hold the tab key to hilight entries or items.
(no idea which button does the trick on xbox)
In some cases you or your rogue need to get close to
hidden doors or trapdoors to discover them.

This DLC was great! It seems to also represent alot of replay value, but it provides us really nice amount of Orleasian and Qunari lore, the DLC also seems prettier than Legacy's did and it had alot of humour in it, which i loved.

And once again Hawke looks like a fool.

Well.... at least we know who is to blame if the Qunari curbstomp Thedas thanks to the informations of their spies. To bad that all Hawke cares about seems to be shiny stuff.

I'm already getting excited for the next DLC. I want to know at what Hawke fails next. Darkspawn, Qunari.... maybe he could help some Tevinter Blood Mage Magisters next time, thanks to his indifference.

Eh, so there isn't the option to take the information yourself for the good of all Thedas?

I haven't seen one. Hawke goes all "Give me the scroll!", Tallis says "Nuh uh!", throws the jewel to Hawke and leaves, end of the DLC.
Maybe with an all out aggressive Hawke, but I doubt it, since MotA Is happening befor DA: Redemption, if I understood it right, and Hawke won't get the scroll from Tallis without violence.

Actually I think it's rather hilarious that the Duke is presented as the Big Bad of the DLC. In my opinion he was doing the right thing: Trying to find ways to fight the Qunari invasion that will surely come.

But... the good of all Thedas? What are you talking about, man? Hawke has got the shiny jewel! That hat to be worth something!
