When the truth that a Grey Warder had to die in order to properly defeated the Archdemon, the first thing Alqua thought about was Zevran. After freeing him from the Crows and rejecting his earring becase he wanted a sign of their affection, after declaring to him his love and winning back his heart, the two of them spent the last night before the final siege together and Zevran offered the earring back to Alqua, saying that it could even be a proposal and that he wanted a future for them. After all this, Alqua couldn't bear the idea of leaving Zevran... He contemplated the possibility of letting Alistair sacrificing, but Alistair was a good friend, he was with him from the beginning and he had become something like a brother to him. So... what to do? Morrigan offered a way out, a ritual that would have allowed both he and Alistair to live. But Alqua had to be sure that Morrigan's intentions were sincere and that she would not have used the child, later on, to threaten Ferelden or the Grey Wardens. She seemed to him sincere in her intent to preserve something so unique and ancient - the soul of an Old God - finally untainted by the Blight. From his Mage and Elven perspective, Alqua even thought that something good could come from the ritual...
... And this is why I agreed to Morrigan's ritual
