I'm always late to the thread :P sadly you people post the most when I'm asleep xD

Wait.. I didn't know that If you didn't pick Cullen for the Mission about Clan Lavellan the clan wouldn't die!! Nooooooooooo! I thought it was the same !
What do they say then? Does this have any other repercussion on the game?

On a side note, I couldn't sleep last night, and was browsing on my phone and noticed it was looking a bit dull. I have then decided to transform the phone into a Solavellan theme xD

She is offering him an "orb" and he offers her a flower in return :D In the menu page there is what looks like an Halla, the message page looks like the Arbor Wilds and the keyboard is somewhat ok together with the rest :D

God I have too much spare time... :/

There's no reaction to the clan dying because the War Table missoins were written after the dialouge.  Weekes indicated in his twitter feed that this is something he'd like to see added in a patch.

Speaking of fanart. I actually saw one that made me think of you the other day, Colonel. It's not Cass, but I think you'll appreciate it:

Malfunctioning Internet aside, I'm only thirty pages behind.  :lol:

This comic is magnificent. :D I love how you just know Grey Warden Loghain would have quite happily fought Teyrn Loghain, both being as ruthless and pragmatic as possible in their goals, with both having plans spiraling way out of control!  :lol:

I'm a proud member of the Society for the Preservation of Loghain. :P

I am SO happy David Gaider is writing the next DA novel! I honestly do not mean to offend anybody here who loved Last Flight, but I really did not love it (or like it much). It's not a horrific book, but it bored me to tears and I really like the other novels written by the guys who actually work at Bioware. The author of Last Flight might be more an actual fiction writer, but the entire story was bland and dry for me, although the 'Griffon' game was strong and very well written. I just have had way more fun reading the books by Weekes and Gaider, even if their specialty is not in writing fiction. I could barely finish Last Flight (although the end is really good).

I didn't notice the timeline issues, but to me it was the least boring of the DA novels. In fact as I was discussing with Colonel, the action in the book is superb. The only issue I had was that the characterization was very light. I ate the book up, honestly, whereas I struggled to finish both Asunder and The Masked Empire. I think I just hate Orlesians. A book full of Orlesians and their crap did nothing for me. A book full of badass elves and griffons, oh yes! Also it really made the horror of the Blight clear, whereas Origins made the Blight seem kind of a pushover.

But, as always, mileage varies. Are we sure that Gaider is writing a DA novel?

Has anyone speculated on where Solas/Fen'harel was asleep all this time? I have to admit, I'm rather getting obsessed with his recent backstory....

 

I was just replaying Act 1 of DA2 and realized that there were ancient elves doing Uthenera on Sundermount, as Merrill mentions, but also, this is the same place where, as Hawke, you summon Flemeth/Mythal with the amulet. When she appears, she talks about needing to keep an appointment one year after she saved you outside of Lothering from darkspawn, and by this, I'm led to believe she's talking about meeting up with Morrigan. Morrigan, as we know, never shows because she thinks Flemeth is going to possess her body and/or take her Old God baby away from her, if he exists.

 

But, this whole thing about why she was summoned on Sundermount and how Keeper Marithari was able to just know she had to move her clan there at that time is interesting. She claims she knew because she listened to the wind and such mystical things like that. Why would she only go there just for Flemeth's summoning? Not only that, but she doesn't move her clan on to other places, but sticks around for another 6 years (very suspicious).

 

This led me to wonder if this is where Fen'harel was asleep all those centuries. From a codex entry that had to be decoded, which can only be picked up in Act 3 of the game, you find out that Fen'harel would be awakening with an eclipse, which suggests he woke up during Act 3 (9:37 Dragon). Also, Sandal says some weird crap only during Act 3, which is basically a prophecy that D. Gaider intentionally put in there because he knew where the story would be headed, so he decided Sandal would say something cryptic to creep the player out.

 

Okay, but why believe Fen'harel was on Sundermount of all places in Thedas? Because D. Gaider also mentioned from the same interview that Corypheus weakened the Veil because of his close proximity to Kirkwall, making the mages very susceptible to being crazy. But, Corphy does not awaken at any specific date that I know of--only between 9:31 and 9:37 Dragon. You get to choose when to go kick his butt in the game. But, Fen'harel seems to have awakened during a specific year that corresponds to Act 3 of DA2, thus 9:37 Dragon.

 

Added to this that if Fen'harel were also very near Kirkwall, then an absolute awakening of an ancient Elvhen god would REALLY weaken the Veil and cause an explosion of sorts. Sounds like Anders blowing up the Chantry, which happens at the end of Act 3, 9:37 Dragon. The best thing to indicate an eclipse actually occurring in DA2 is when you see that in Act 3 of the game, the sun is dimmer in the sky than it is during the other previous two acts. At least it is in Hightown. I always wondered about this. The sun is not low enough in the sky to justify how dim it is outside. Also, I've finally taken notice of how it magically gets dark outside right after Anders blows up the Chantry. Isn't that weird? Why is it suddenly dark out when not more than a matter of minutes went by from the time you first went the the Gallows and then went back to Hightown?

 

A full solar eclipse was probably taking place, but the game simply failed to mention it happening and/or the characters were too distracted to even take notice of it. It's Fen'harel awakening near Kirkwall, causing mages and the lone Red Templar to act like crazy freaks, I tells ya!

I love all of this. I'm torn between Sundermount and Skyhold and...

Pride's Fall was the name of the demon's cave on Sundermount, wasn't it? Hmm.  :huh:

As for the Chantry explosion, the air darkening could just be dust kicked up from the giant building that just got kablooeyed.

If Solas actually did awaken at that exact moment, or just before it, and the Veil felt bad for him so it loosened up for old time's sake or what-have you, then that makes Act III so much cooler:wub:

Aaaand back to trying to catch up.  :P

If there are still ancient temples/sentinels devoted to the elven pantheon couldn't there still be ancient elves devoted to the forgotten ones? Assuming the forgotten ones are elves, anyway.

According to the Wiki on the Forgotten Ones and some Codex entries, some cults to the Forgotten Ones do spring up. More curiously, it seems they do get strange powers and unnatural strength, suggesting that something is answering them.

Or perhaps it's simply the Dalish's more religious-toned way of explaining their beloved leaders becoming abominations to their children. *shrug*

EDIT: If the Forgotten Ones were elven, I'd love to see their Sentinels. :D

But if they were the gods of the dwarves.

Well.

Imagine Mr. Dwarf Abelas Thighs.  ;)

Do we have good reasons why the forgotten ones aren't the old gods of Tevinter? I'm asking for legitimate reasons- I forget. lol.

 

I was pretty stuck on the forgotten ones being the dwarven deities- and they still could be, though I think I'm leaning more now to the Titans being something other.

 

But there's got to be some connection with these archdemons and the forgotten ones.

Speaking of the Forgotten Ones... did anyone post this before? If so, I apologize, I was out of the loop - and out of the forums - for quite some time. That's from "The Last Court".

Edit: so apparently the Forgotten Ones have their own vallaslin. Which means... what? That they were legitimate members of the pantheon, once? Hm.

I've decided to re-watch The Prince of Egypt (again), and I cannot help but associate Moses with Solas. A prince, raised into the life of luxury, hot-blooded and irresponsible, who later becomes a fighter for freedom of the oppressed. I can totally imagine Solas going all "Let my people go!" against the rest of the pantheon... Alright, this one is just my overactive imagination, but I can't help but see parallels here.
