First, most of the romance endings are quite happy... maybe not perfect in the whole "and they had children and married and...", but then everyone should know that expansions or sequels are in the pipe-line. Considering that it states the PC is still a major factor in more historical events if that PC survives, it should be expected that any future content intends to touch on those events.



Also, the "for the time" blurbs always read in my epilogues as "they travelled together for a time" then quickly followed by a "this isn't the last time the world heard of...". That seems to insinuate that they travelled in peace and then were called back into action, not necessarily that anything dire happened.



Anyway... on the soul: as another poster has stated, Riordan never directly says that the soul of the warden is destroyed, merely that it takes the soul of a warden to destroy the arch-demon. Though I would not be surprised if Bioware screwed it up and went that route... I mean they already went the route of "the arch-demon has no soul"... of course maybe that is just an in-world misconception that the writers will play with.



Keeping that 'ideology' would be extremely dangerous since it is a limiting and narrow concept of the soul. Maybe a better term would be spirit or "spark of divinity"... demons have a soul but no "light of the creator" kind of distinction. Otherwise they would have to jump through hopes to explain how not only an old-god, but any being in general can exist without its immortal, eternal foundation of being.



But all that aside, it simpy means that my surly dwarf is waiting on the other side for his fiery and beautiful bard.

If you think these romances have bad endings then try Baldur's Gate 2.

That said the BG2 romances were bad from start to finish.

I will agree to that (damn Viconia)
Anyway, I'm not really complaining, I just thought there would be a few stayed together etc till some issues occurred and they went off together to battle/settle/witness/whathaveyou it. Just checked the ending again.
"Leliana chose to remain in Denerim with her love... at least for a time"
So it could be taken either way. Maybe I'm just a pessimist

But yeah, wasn't really complaining. I just really came to like Leliana's character (well, hardened Leliana) after that playthrough, so it was more a grumpy *hurumph*.

Hmm, can't edit for some reason. Anyway, I chose to stay in Denerim to help Alistair get settled into his rule. It was more an RP thing, but after that was finished I imagined I would go adventuring. So that is why I stayed in Denerim
