He sounds so exhausted, and even though he's being pretty friendly (with someone he doesn't like no less) you can feel the weight behind everything he's saying. A few causes, he said. Just how many causes?
Also...did Bioware forget that Dalish elves are apparently supposed to know a limited vocabulary? The Dalish protagonist understands a lot of Elven they maybe shouldn't? Except when plot (coughconversationinFade) decides otherwise, that is.
It might depend on the Clan, they all know bits and pieces of Elven lore maybe Clan Lavellan has a better grasp on the language? Or as a First you know more of the Clan's knowledge than everyone else?
It would seem that Solas has been doing his Fadewalking (and possibly traveling through the Crossroads) for a very long time. Given the cruel streak that the rest of the pantheon seems to have Fen'Harrel doesn't really seem to fit in, since we haven't really seen any lore that shows him doing anything outwardly evil. From the sound of that dialogue, he's been used to being called a fool and a madman (trickster also fits) for a long time.
As for causes, it very well could be that he was Shartan. The complete Saga of Tyrdda Bright-Axe talks about her "leaf-eared lover" who she "lays with at night, only to disappear in the morning" which given his familiarity with the Fade could be Solas. Although, given that the saga mentions that Tyrdda's bloodline will one day give rise to a child named Morrighan'an and references to "whispers" Tyrdda was most likely the first to host the spark of Mythal that Flemeth (and now possibly Solas) now holds.
