Here is my idea of how my Lavellan and Solas are gonna meet:
Solas Thread - NOW OFFICIALLY MOVED to Cyonan's BSN (link in OP)

It sounds nice to get surprised like that, coming back to Skyhold tired from a mission, heading to talk to Leliana and then, poooof, Solas is back in his office, sitting on his chair and drinking his "lovely" tea. That would be sooo perfect. He would be like:
Solas: Inquisitor, may I have a word? I wanted to...
...gets suddenly interrupted by Lavellan who covers his mouth (and whispers "Stop") and then kisses him like in the Fade, he pulls back (like always) and then he kisses her back with passion, slowly moving towards the couch and then...you know, love happens.

I guess it depends on how long he's been away for. A few months and she'd probably be quite relaxed, just figuring that he needed time after Corphyfish's defeat to think things out. But if it's closer to a year or longer, I can imagine she would be a lot more formal and probably quite suspicious at first. Anyway, if he's away for almost a year, I don't doubt my Lavellan would be in the process of moving on and she'd need a pretty spectacular explanation to bring her around to rekindling things.

On Solas leaving...
In one dialogue option, he promises that "if we both survive" the battle with Corypheus, then he'll tell her why he had to break up with her. I can't believe that Solas is lying to her there. He's never flat out lied to her before. He's definitely left out the whole truth in some statement, but he's never directly lied. Now, we have no way of knowing if he'd tell her the whole truth, but do believe he intended to give her some kind of answer. He probably would have left the Inquisition after that, but not before talking to her.
As far as his manner of thinking - I think, at this point, he has no way of knowing how the fight with Corypheus will go. He could very well be killed, so could Lavellan. There's no telling if either of them will make it. Also, if he does live, he believeshe's going to get the orb back, and that's going to make his goal easier. He can spare enough time to give Lavellan a quick explanation and then leave to do his work.
But, the orb is destroyed. And things suddenly get much more complicated. For one, he now knows he has to kill Mythal (I think he always had this in the back of his head as plan B, but was hoping not to use it). And he's crushed by this. And realizes he can't give Lavellan an explanation - either he's just too emotional at this point, or things have gotten too complicated to explain, or whatever.
But I do think he meant to give her some kind of an explanation.
And I think the orb breaking was the moment he changed his mind.

I've always wondered about everyone saying he promised to explain. Are we talking about the part where he says if they survive, "All will be made clear" or something like that? Because I interpreted that a little more vaguely, and perhaps a bit ominously. "All will be made clear" is much more like "you'll see" than "baby I can explain" ...
(Edit to clarify that I don't necessarily believe he did not intend some sort of explanation or hope one would be possible, but was only questioning the Promise to Explain in case it was specifically stated elsewhere.)

Yeah, 'all will be made clear' in that context reads a lot more like 'you're going to understand why I did this and you won't like it'.

This has been discussed in the elven pantheon thread. In my view it is something of a call to arms a revolutionary manifesto if you will and shows similar characteristics to Solas's creed "Cause and effect..."

To clarify, I only believe his motivations in ending the relationship with Lavellan at the moment he does to be fear based, rather than done out of a need to "protect" her, or for anything else he logically supposed before hand, as he was planning to keep the relationship going before the whole thing went to **** in his hands. I'm sure he has asstonnes of good reasons for leaving the Inquisition, the break-up with Lavellan or friendship/rivalry with Inquisitor aside entirely. And I'm very interested to see where they're going with this.
Hey. I seem to like this Solas guy.
I think this is where the romance/friend path diverge a bit. Technically he owes the Inquisition nothing at the end. He promised he would stay to help defeat Corypheus and he did. Leliana and a friendly Inquisitor are understandably suspicious because he left so suddenly and he was so distraught, but otherwise he owes them nothing and is free to leave.
Regarding a romanced Lavellan: I agree that he panicked when at the Fire Swamp. I think it's more nuanced than "I want to protect you" - though I think that's the basics of it. It sounds like whatever he is going to do is bad. May not just be physically threatening but may require him to make some really ugly decisions. So he's probably standing there and is like "****, what am I doing. I can't drag her down with me."
@Siha - I agree though. Despite his dayof careful planning on telling Lavellan the truth, I think it was more fantasy than anything. I have a feeling - as we find out what the hell is going on -he had no choice but to leave. There is something bigger than him going on - I maintain he didn't just wake up, rather someone woke him up. So as we find out, I think I think Lavellan will be all "This is a **** show, Solas. I do appreciate not being included in this...honestly!"

It's possible this has been discussed before but...I remember reading this codex but didn't think anything of it at the time.
He spoke to me later in the day, and asked that I call him Corypheus, as it was the name he would take for himself after a ritual. Master - now Corypheus - told me that my people, the elves of old, were tied to the Fade, and that in order to carry out the will of Dumat, he would need to call upon the magic that lives in our blood.
I'm desperate for more lore. I mean, Coryfish liked to listen to himself talk. We could have sat down over a nice cup of tea (with Solas sneering in the background) and discussed things like adults.
After I stabbed him a few times.
Now we have to wait 4-5 years for another game?
Solas would be serving your tea pretending to be a waiter and listening in...

We've talked about it on the elvhen pantheon thread about what this means. But that codex - to me - reads as a manifesto. It's has the same rhetoric of communist/revolutionary ramblings.

I agree that the protectiveness probably extends not just towards physical protection from death or harm, but protection from the truth, protection from ugly things he may have to do. And there's probably a certain freedom in going into it alone because he can be singularly focused on the task, not allowing himself to be distracted by her safety or her state of mind.

That's my favourite theory on the matter thus far. I think you guys have the right of it.

It's mine as well. (not just because it's ours). it sings to my tiny socialist heart and makes solas about 1000x sexier to me some how. also the guy that wrote the codex - even though he comes off as a total looney- i want him to be just...AMAZING. i love the first line, it's so powerful. all passion. loose cannon. saxual revolutionary mohawk elf hair. (I have not thought about this extensively AT ALL)
right now i just want to go hang out with fen'harel in arlathan setting **** on fire. i want that story.
