I think the Inquisitor will learn who he is someday. But I have a feeling it will never come from an honest confession. I think either Solas will be backed into a corner, either by the Inquisitor, Morrigan or another elven god, and the truth will come out. 

 

And cue the Well of Sorrows...

 

(thats my theory anyway. and part of why I dont let my Lavellan drink. i want her to learn solas is an ancient elf but not that he is a 'god', unless he decides to tell her, eventually. But shes got enough truth-bombs to go through as it is with that guy ;)

I really want my inquisitor to find out who he really is,no matter the race(Lavellan finding out is going to be priceless though).But most importantly I want to hear/see the reactions of our companions,every single one of them.

1000 times this.  Especially Cassandra. Oh poor Cassandra.  She puts her faith in people and then they pull out the rug from under her.  Look what happened with Blackwall.  I usually ran around with her and Solas(she was so my bff in the game) and their banters were my favorite.  I feel she will be just as heartbroken as a romanced Lavellan would be - not for the same reasons perse -  but she really respects Solas and he clearly really respects her.

For me, it's Memories by Within Temptation and Still Here by Digital Daggers. And a few others as well)

Since you mentioned within temptation ,if you have to fight him or something I was thinking what have you done ? :)

I still feel strongly about Solas wanting the Inquisitor to find out on their own who he is, and what he plans. Simply telling the Inquisitor...they'll think he's mad, friend or lover. It's a large truth to even consider swallowing. You find out the truth better on your own, because you can accept it in your own time and way instead of someone holding your hand to influence your decision. Solas wants the Inquisitor to find out and come to him on their own terms.

 

Maybe the Inquisitor and Solas will somehow meet in private and she will confront him.

Or, they'll come running as a ritual is taking place.

 

oh god give us the choice to be with him

I want to do something similar to how the Inquisitor got their memories back while in the Fad that will allow us to get snippets of what went down in Arlathan and the events that followed that will lead up to some sort of reunion with Solas or something.

 

True! But, I don't know if that really means he'll give an explanation of what happened. It just seems that being Solas is too valuable a disguise to remove until he's ensured success in whatever it is he's after. Presumably when he said that, he thought he would regain his orb. 

 

I wasn't necessarily saying he would give an explanation (because I don't think he meant he would explain anything when he said "all will be made clear"; too ominous and "you'll know soon enough"-y), just that his identity would be inevitably revealed due to his actions whether he wills it or not.

The Well of Sorrows is interesting. Theoretically, you'd think that having drunk it, Morrigan or the Inquisitor would realize who Solas was because Mythal knew who he was. It could be something they might explore further down the line, as it is implied that Morrigan/Inquisitor can't properly digest everything they learned at once.

Songs that make me think of Lavellan: "Swimming" and "Heavy in Your Arms" by Florence and the Machine, "Oh My God" by Ida Maria, "Let Go" by Frou Frou.

 

Ha! If we talked about songs that remind me of Lavellan... we, well, er I... yeah, I'd be here all day.

 

It's like Pokemon, accumulate more as you go and you've gotta catch 'em all.

 

For my Lavellan particularly, it's currently: "Young Blood" by Bea Miller, "Blinding" by Florence and the Machine, "All Eyes on Me" by Goo Goo Dolls, "Cool Kids" by Echosmith, "Suddenly" by Leann Rimes, "All We Are" by One Republic, "Caught in the Storm" by Goo Goo Dolls, "Break Free ft Zedd" by Ariana Grande (Jon Electra remix), "Masterpiece" by Jessie J, "Flaws" by Bastille, "Harbor" by Vienna Teng, "I Was Born, I Have Lived, I Will Surely Die" by Young Guns, "Who You Are" by Jessie J, "Kings of Medicine" by Placebo, "This Is War" by 30 Seconds to Mars.

 

I think my current Solavellan playlist is fifty songs and that's without going back through the thread to find all the awesome suggestions or digging through that awesome Solas youtube playlist. :wub:

That would be a really cool way of explaining some of what happened. As it is, I feel like if we do ever learn about Solas's identity from him, we're in for a painfully long exposition dump. Having some sort of visualization would be nice.

Yeah, it'd be best if he gave us the highlights of the events by showing us through the Fade. I'd love to see more of the Fade as we say it in Haven as it is, having it occur with Solas...

I'd love to see their faces. We were posting earlier who our team for searching for Solas would be. From Inquisition mine would be Cassandra, Cole and Dorian. My dream team, though, would be Mahariel, Merrill and Ariane.

Aye they'd better give us that choice! Judging from what he tells Cole, though, I think the last thing Solas wants is for Lavellan to realize who he is. Not so much because she might reject him- her "wisdom and subtlety" probably reassured him on that point. My interpretation is that he breaks it off because he realizes their love will bind her to his purpose, and he can't live with that. Maybe he'd been thinking she would help him (using the mark), but in the end he won't do that to her, even if she's willing. Ar lasa mala revas.

I had settled on having Morrigan drink, but I kind of miss angry Solas after you drink. All that passionate worry. It also makes him asking what she'll do with the power of the well make more sense.

And my current Solavellan song is "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush. It reminds me of Lavellan searching for him.

*cackles* Oh, that would/will be fun.

 

I think Solas wants the Inquisitor to figure it out. I also agree that he won't outright tell them unless pressed/forced. Every promise he makes about us finding out is conditional on experiencing it over hearing it i.e. "you'll see". More ominous than anything else. I think he wants them to know because he doesn't want to lie but also doesn't want them to know because that means it all becomes real and then he has to deal with the fallout. The best solution, for him, is to let them figure it out for themselves (he wants them to, but is confident they won't). Unsurprisingly, he has dream state problems.

 

With the Well, they might. Without the Well? I'm not so sure. If Morrigan figures it out, she probably won't tell the Inquisitor unless she absolutely has to or sees herself getting something out of it. She is the exact personality that would try to blackmail him with the information to learn what secrets he's keeping because his are infinitely more valuable. The Inquistor doesn't have much to offer in that regard. (Does she even translate those Ancient Elf codex entries if you don't drink from the Well? I don't remember?)

I was thinking more...erogenous spot sensitive. If I had elf ears they would totally be erogenous spots. 

 

I think this is the part where people usually say "I'll show myself out" so...

I must be an elf cuz my ears ... uhhh I'm not gonna finish that sentence!  lol

I can see ears being a thing for elves, totally.

Yeah but Mythal had power over the one who drunk. I would think she had also power of what would be revealed to them. 

So even without knowing that Solas was with the Inquisition (did Flemythal know he was with Quizzi?) she would think it smart so minimize the information Quizzi/Morrigan would have.

 

What happens after Solas took her power would be interesting...

I don't believe she translates them for you. Only the Inquisitor can read them. 

 

 

This has nothing to do with Solas, but- does anyone know where the Dalish heavy armor schematic can be found? I see online that it is listed as random or ???. Is it truly a random drop? Has anyone gotten it somewhere?

Maybe Morrigan decides she needs to get into the Fade, or needs the mark for something else? Or maybe she just realizes she needs someone with a big stick to hit the Dread Wolf with, and the Inquisition is one giant stick. Who knows what she'll decide once she figures something out.

 

 

Yeah but Mythal had power over the one who drunk. I would think she had also power of what would be revealed to them.

I wonder if the control aspect of the Well comes from Mythal's power or her divinity. If she were able to lock away/give away the latter, Solas might not have any control over what the Well does.

Thinking about the back masked dialogue. "Go to him... the calling." Maybe The Calling was a way that the elven gods/ old gods communicated with each other. Once nobody was there to pick up the phone, darkspawn started doing it. This could be how Corypheus faked out the Wardens- he's using Solas' cell phone. Maybe that's also why Mythal didn't contact him earlier, because until the Well she thought it was spam calls from Corypheus.

Aren't the Old Gods the ones that call though? And Lyrium? OK actually maybe Dragon Age is actually one giant musical.

I don't know if the elven gods created the calling, but it is interesting to think that it might have once served another purpose.

 

There's also the thought that- lets say the elven gods really are corrupted by red lyrium or the blight. That means either they are the calling, or, they are also hearing the calling. If they are hearing the calling then...who is the one singing to everyone?
