They can be, though I think it's tough to talk about the Dalish as if they were a unified group with similar philosophies and goals.

I agree,the dalish population is rather diverse,although I must admit that so far we've only seen clans and individuals that are either moderate or hostile.
I'm intrigued to see a clan that get's along relatively well with the local human population like the one in Rivain,they'll offer an interesting POV.

Man... I feel like I can't even begin to comment on any of this til I finish TME. I'm so baffled as to how the timing of all this works based on snippets of spoilers I've seen... Need to power through that darn book!

That's a very good point. To be honest, each clan can vary in agressiveness. It's a case by case situation.

Trust me, it'll all make sense once you make it through.

Yeah, just going by snippets and admittedly pieced together speculation, it just makes me say, "oh, oh".  From what I understand, I will apparently have to pick side between the Dalish and the Orlesians.

 

Now, what I don;t understand is the make up of the elves that are the majority of the Halamshiral populace. Are they considered Dalish, or City? But with having this very minority human noble population in the area essentially occupying the area, if something pops off---the first place to get razed would be the human noble area.

 

True, it may not be all the elves--Dalish, or City, but it doesn't take alot of ppl to srsly eff some stuff up. Idk, but it just seems to me that being hold up at that noble area/Winter Palace place would be a choice target if I had revolution in mind.

 

Then this image from forever ago.

It's DA2 Anders, but he looks haggard and haunted and just worn down. :(


Omg, I finally saw it! YIKES!!! Heartbreaking! Terrible. I'd have knifed him for sure out of mercy! Screw running away together, he looks like he's almost dead! Man sorry to bring OT but geezus! :(

we're OT anyway.

 

So, one of the questions considered by Gaider iirc, was would Justice being in Anders mitigate the Taint in him, or would the Taint in him affect Justice?

That's right where I had to stop reading (until I get my iPad back), the chapter that opens with the two Halamshiral elves. I'm not even really sure what this place is; it's a city, I assume, and it's in Orlais? I am guessing that it's mostly elves with the "rich golden center" of the city being occupied by humans? 

 

That does scream revolution to me. In fact if this were a typical fantasy book, our main character would probably be a young elf living in the slums.

 

EDIT: Actually, let me rephrase that; the main character would probably be an outcast noble HUMAN who sees the plight of the elves and chooses to help them *rolls eyes*

I think Justice's power as a Fade spirit could have waylaid the Taint, just as Faith could halt Wynne's death.

Halamshiral is an Orlesian city at the very edge of the Dales, the forest. It is also home to Celene's Winter Palace. In the olden days it was a city in the Arlathan empire.

I won;t have to pick sides? (I kinda hope not. i kinda thought it would be a choice between Celene and that Duke guy). But the devs made it sound like I wouldn't be able to have both.

Oh no, you will have to make choices and pick sides, I was just saying that the two you mentioned are not necessarily gonna be the options you are given.

I dunno why, but this reminds me of a NSFW fanfic I read once between Cullen and a female mage Hawke where he discovers that he can replace lyrium with regular sex with female mage Hawke because of all the magic coursing through her, LOL!

 

Mage!Inquisitor: Cullen, I think we need to sleep together.

 

Cullen: ...Inquisitor?

 

Mage!Inquisitor: You need lyrium. As it happens, I drink a lot of lyrium potions. So if we exchange bodily fluids...

 

Cullen: I... I don't think that would work.

 

Mage!Inquisitor: Oh, really? You ever tried?

 

Cullen: But... but...

 

Mage!Inquisitor: For the sake of your health, Cullen!

So, talking about Cullen and the dark circles around his eyes, would you prefer him to still have them or not? I think I'd like them to still be there if only faintly since that's part of his signature look: the curly/wavy hair, the goatee, the amber eyes and the purple/red circles around them.

 

I'd like to see him still have the dark circles but have them be lighter, to suggest that he's a little sleeping better these days now that he's put Kirkwall behind him.

Speaking from experience, the dark circles may have nothing to do with not sleeping well. For me it's a family trait, so they're there all the time. However, when I don't get enough sleep, it looks like someone punched me in the face! :lol: So, I think I'd like to still see the dark circles on Cullen.

The Dalish in Orlais I highly doubt are passive.

Ah, I probably used the wrong word. I think they will wait for Gaspard and Celene to weaken each other, and then they will wait for the flat-eared to do some more damage to human empire, and only then they will, perhaps, gather to discuss their plans of world domination. They are in no hurry to get killed :) If some elves are doing to attack the winter palace, I think it will be the city elves, although (TME spoilers)

Aww, these are my babies! She even sent me the original, and it's waiting to be framed and put on the geeky wall in our new place! I It will remind me of SweetCandyRain, she's been offline forever because of health issues, but I'm still hoping she will come back. I really miss her.

Now, I've finished re-reading Asunder this morning, and in the end there may be a hint on Cullen's fate (big spoiler)
