Giving him the best father-in-law imaginable and ensuring that he lives the rest of his life in wealth and comfort? I'm sure he'll survive. 

 

He did just fine in my world...on the throne and married to my Warden.

oh god that post was so garbled here I will fix it

Oooo.....want to imagine a serious turn for the sadz in the life of Solas?

 

Lavellan is the character we play in the next game and you have the option to move on and love someone else. Felessan is the first Tranquil companion and his little companion story is the quest to cure his Tranquility. After no longer being Tranquil, Felessan can become a LI.

 

Lavellan romances Felessan.....and Felessan finds out about Solas and Lavellan.

 

Then Solas and Felessan have a conversation about people.

 

 

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooouch

 

Romancing Felassan might heal my wounded heart. I'll know for sure once I progress further in reading TME.

I see the results in that poll seem to get remarkably even > http://www.strawpoll.me/5569513/r

And still - Around 70% of people want to see Inky back in some capacity, with around 45-50% wanting to see him/her in more prominent role Hawke in DAI was.

 

That's actually pretty good news, IMO.

Just thought I'd share my wordgasm with everybody.

I'm pretty happy with that too. I thought people that wanted a new protag would get trounced and I'm okay with a cameo and the duel protag as long as the new guy gets most of the screen time.

Some people on this forum.. I just can't.

 

Just got told I should be prosecuted for daring to not want unwarranted cameos in the next game. From someone who is either a child or a moron. I can't decide which. Oh BSN. If not for this thread I'd give up

See, the thing I realized while highlighting this and typing it up - it's not even the words. It's the content. Weekes writes well, but really, his head is just full of good stuff.

[TheEggCrusher]

So I just realized something I should have waaaay sooner 

 

Spoiler

 

Abominations' eyes glow.

Well this is extremely depressing. 

 

I guess Solas really does have some foreign spirit in him, if not Mythal. It all depends on what Flemeth was putting through the mirror during the ending cutscene. Could be mythal, could not be. Could be flemeth for all we know. Main point is, he's most likely, by definition, an abomination. 

 

Why do I hurt myself like this x-x

I wouldn't read too much into the visual and spell effects.  They're usually just an indicator for us as players (glowy Anders = possessed), and they can be inconsistent.  I don't remember Uldred and his abominations glowing back in DA:O.  Abelas's can eyes glow during the Well of Sorrows sequence, and I'm pretty sure he's not an abomination.  Meredith's eyes glow too, red from the lyrium.  I think it's a (somewhat sloppy) visual shorthand for magical power, not for possession.

Well, the way I see our mission:

 

Weekes is the professional who breaks hearts.

 

We are the volunteer disaster relief army who heal them.

 

Both are equally important.

but he did absorb a spirit during the ending cutscene? I mean I already knew he was whacked up somehow. The similarity between Anders' and his special eye effects just kinda twists the knife. 

 

I already knew he is something similar to an abomination now, but relating him to Anders that way just kinda makes it more real than before. Puts it in perspective I guess.

I personally just assumed it was a visual sign of "HE'S SUPER POWERFUL NOW, THIS IS FEN'HAREL THIS IS NOT A DRILL".  

[TheEggCrusher]

could be, but it also could be a reference. And since we already know he has some foreign spiritual entity in him ... idk seems a bit too coincidental

Notice that he seems to be at full control of the glowing. Also - with elves being way closer to spirits and Solas himself being powerful, whatever power he absorbed from Flemeth, he commands it and not the other way around.

But we don't know that he has some foreign spiritual entity inside him.  The original dev notes on the scene (which yes, they can change their minds about) indicate that he took Mythal's power and that she wanted to pass her divinity/spirit to Morrigan.

 

Not saying Solas doesn't actually have Mythal's spirit merged with his but I am saying we don't know one way or the other.

Well, we do know that Kieran seemed to have bestowed the same kind of power on Mythal when we first see her in the Fade (same color of blue 'wispy' magic and stuff) AND she takes in Uthremiel's soul at the and and doesn't seem to be affected by it at all.

You are determined to cause yourself pain  
 
Mostly I don't think he's possessed in the same way as Anders because it would be kind of a bad story?  Solas does terrible things, and has terrible plans, but it's all on him.  He takes complete responsibility for every awful thing he as done and will do.  Having him be possessed or magically influenced IMO is a cheap cop-out, a way of saying, "Well, it wasn't him so it's ok now."

I've had days like that. "Falon'Din, help me make heads or tails of this mountain of incomprehensible data, and I shall worship your divine, glittery form any time, anywhere."

well yea he is an extremely powerful mage.

 

anyways guys I'm not trying to say this is a bad thing or anything. I know he's in full control of whatever he took from Flemeth. I just think it's an interesting connection, and relating this to Anders brings up some similarities between the two that are kinda depressing (the whole "Kill a bunch of people so things can get better" gag) 

 

Can't deny that it is any interesting connection 

[Elessara]

But that only applies for those playthroughs where Kieran was the result of a Dark Ritual.  Not everyone sees that.  I kind of think there will be little to no mention of this going forward because it's been such a headache for them to deal with.  I mean, a huge plot point that's optional?  And that they then have to keep track of both for those who did the DR and those who didn't.  So whatever Kieran gave Flemeth and whatever Flemeth did with it ... may remain a mystery, at least for now.
