Just as a question, let's say you romanced Morrigan and you *did* chase after her once the story is over. What would you expect to happen if you found her?
I find it hard to believe that you would honestly expect a reunion where you run towards each other across a field of grass, arms open to sweep each other up? Morrigan says, "you found me, you big silly! I know I told you to never come after me, but I was totally wrong!" And then you go off to raise your demon baby in a nice cottage with a white picket fence?
Or you think that, having found her, she will answer questions for you then? Do you intend to offer child support, what? I know that you were hoping for something *more* -- but that's part of the point. I obviously have my own ideas on where the story will go, but now I'm just really curious as to what sort of romantic reunion is being pictured here.
My mind has pondered on nothing but this since I beat the game a few days ago. I indeed did romance Morrigan. And as much as I love the reuinion in the flower meadows idea, don't think it's Morrigan's or my character's cup of tea.
First the ending to me, was a heartbreaker. In my senselss romantic haze I was sitting in through my 60 hours of plaything through my first time, I had my heart so set on showing Momo love, and was half heartedly expecting some typical, "I've shown you the true face of love" kind of thing going on with Morrigan towards the end, maybe her turning around on her ways. I was ... pretty wrong =X. Not a bad thing tho, it touched me, and that's what I think any artist strives for.
But what kind of reuinion am I seeing, so glad you asked

As with the whole game, things would probably go any number of ways, these are some that I see, thinking how I feel about the situation.
Find Morrigan through Flemeth. As Morrigan said, even if you killed her, I too doubt Flemeth is really dead. Either way, Flemeth could potentially find Morrigan for you. Morrigan of course, would be pretty pissed I assume if you showed up to her cave with good ol Mother. A number of things could come from this, including getting Morrigan killed, Flemeth taking the child and leaving the two of you for dead, you know.
The ring, Morrigan can sense you through it. In time could this not be used vice versa? Morrigan can also sense you approaching through it, but I think a plan could be hatched. Main character could decoy & move on her position, something. Of course she is uber pissed for not listening to her, maybe even attacks you.
For me, what I truly want, is for Morrigan to bend under my pressure, and recipricate some love. The reuinion scenarios above affect this massively, but when it comes down to it, it really just depends on what Morrigan herself is actually planning.
If she is indeed planning evil, I want to be able to convince her I'm on her side, willing to lay waste to everything that I just saved, all for her. Evil tool pretty please?
If she isn't doing anything bad, just raising the child alone. Some kind of stalker situation, she doesn't know I've found her, and am watching over them. Maybe Flemeth returns to exact some discipline on her daughter, maybe take the child, or something of the disatrous sort. Main character shows up to save the day, very typical I know, but I think even I could hatch something creative from this, if I knew future key things.
But I do know, I'd rather have Morrigan kill me, than never see her again

and judging from what the main character has accomplished so far, I can and will see her again.
EDIT** I would also like to say I don't think the love story, or any continuation of Morrigan would fit in a DLC. I, like a lot of people here, think it's sequel or expansion worthy material. I'd pay another 65 bucks for a collectors edition expansion or sequel, if it brought me more Morrigan.
