Honestly, I don't think there is a point of going into such detailed criticism about a WIP. You don't know at this point where she is going with the story. I also don't get the feeling that we're supposed to agree with Lavellan. Feynite did a good job writing Mythal and Pride's reasoning.
I finally picked up the Descent/Trespasser OST, and was listening to Lost Elf
Spoiler
Fuuuuuu.... even if unintentional, well-played, Bioware, well played.
I'm not one to hellspiral easily but I started crying from listening to this song.
Maybe it's because I'm sick but it gives me the chills.
Also, I drank like 1.5 liters of warm water with lemon slices and decided it works better than tea for sore throat.
Since it's not caffeinated I now headcanon Solas likes drinking warm water with lemon or with spearmint (or with elfroot or maybe embrium).
I just realized embrium makes me think about embryo...
Ahem

Before fade sleep:
Isabela: So, was he good?
Lavellan: Good?
Isabela: *sighs* Merrill won't be the same when I tell- she won't believe me! Oh you've got to give me something to convince an oblivious Dalish girl.
Lavellan: -fill in the response-
I'm not witty enough and I should be asleep 
.
Just added it to the "Feels and Angst" playlist. Also, hellspiraling over the titles of the Trespasser tracks. "Lost Elf Theme"
BIOWARE PLEASE LET ME BRING MY STUPID LOST PUPPY HOME

YES LET US ALL BE ABLE TO! 
Solas and Lavellan DESERVES happiness!

Ugh. That reminded me of when I met Adam West at a comicon. He looked right at my fiance and asked him, "Is she good?" I was standing right there! ....Uuhgghhh why!? Why, Adam West?! (no one needed to actually know this.)
...Anyway, I poorly edited my FO4 Solas to have elf ears because I have other things I'm supposed to be doing.
hehehe..I love Adam West. 
I am still basically an intelligible Cole over here in the feels corner. Someone give me a nug.
A Big Fade Bear Hug.
Solas thread history update. Around the end of December 2014, and not much news to talk about, the discussion is now "what if Solas is Shartan and Shartan was rumored to be Andraste's lover does that mean Solas is the Maker?"
Lots of interesting points are being made. Some are jokingly pissed at Andraste. "Solas if for Lavellan only!" or "If my non-female elf Inquisitor cannot sleep with Solas then neither can Andraste!"
In between these posts is a discussion about the similarity with the Solas tarot card and images of Christian Saints.
.
Someone pointed that out already because he created the veil, though I guess will get our answer eventually
Lost Elf on repeat. This is fine. 
Does anyone else prefer the "Dread Wolf" track that was ripped from the game over the "Lost Elf" version in Spotify? The Spotify one has much better sound quality, but I like the ominous boom boom sound at the beginning of the game version. =/ I'm getting awfully picky about one piece of music.
Yes I do, but to me it sounds like they put together dark solas and lost elf in the youtube version

Naw, I hope you get better soon!
Fennecs are good for healing!
On a serious note.....I must hate myself. A lot.
I listened to "The Lost Elf" after like....a month of not experiencing anything Trespasser related......
....this is me now.
gd Solas.....why you make me feel this way.....
Fade Bear Hug
Yes I do,
Yeah, it mixes Solas sadness, his determination as well as the impending doom. To me the spotify versions emphasize one of these points, but not all. The youtube version will always be the one that really defines Solas for me.
Where should I go to let Bioware know that I would like them to release the in-game version of the Lost Elf theme?
So, Solas Thread. Around the end of year 2014, Patrick Weekes gave an interview that lead to more Solas fan tears. He gave some insight into why Solas a late addition romance and gave some closure to those wondering if Solas really did love Lavellan. Team Optimists vs Team Pessimists/Realists vs Team Moving On. Not a lot of takers on the last one despite the heartbreak that Solas will definitely bring us.
I thought this was a nice new year's gift despite the fan tears. haha. PW just confirmed my opinion of Solas as a character. And I do congratulate him and ever thankful for creating this complex character. Solas will do things that he thinks is necessary for the greater good of The People. Solas and I are on the same wavelength here when it comes to priorities.
Honestly, I always respect characters like Solas more when they make the hard decisions. I hate that trope of choosing your one true love vs the many. In this case, Solas is choosing magic and elves vs his one true love and the rest of the people in Thedas. Extreme, I know. I make exception because Thedas right now is a shithole. I do not agree with maintaining the status quo.
Thanks for sharing the news.
That's the thing though. Even in the real world, some might express similar sentiments, think things were better before ________, but others, like Varric, talk about people building lives for themselves in an imperfect world. Varric himself has been spending time repairing the damage war did to Kirkwall. Varric has experienced some pretty terrible things. But he cares, he sees a world that others might call broken or not real, not worth anything, and see possibility.
It's in the banters between Varric and Solas about the man on the island. Solas' attitude is stubborn, 'all or nothing' and Varric's attitude is 'make do with what you have, build a life, even if it's meager'.
Most people would rather see the world improved than destroyed. Most people try to find what hope, joy, and opportunity they can in the world. And then there are those who'd toss it all out in drastic measures.
I like to see it build from the ashes to be honest. But I do like Varrics opinion more here then Solas. Ir abelas Solas.

Yes, it definitely gives one the prickly chills. Very effective piece.
I am also godawful ill, thanks to my adorable child passing on his germs to me. I've been medicating with coffee so far this morning, but I think I am ready to move on to tea and soup.
Solas would be the worst grouch if he got sick, I imagine. Ancient Elvhen aren't supposed to get sick you see--that's all shemlen awfulness, nothing to do with his people!
In case you all weren't sad enough already when it came to Lost Elf
As soon as you talk about (I read your post about) the track it comes up on my spotify You evil, what magic have you used?
ugh! Finally got to make a remake of scientist! Someone requested me to do it ^^ hopefully you'll like it guys!
Love it
Where should I go to let Bioware know that I would like them to release the in-game version of the Lost Elf theme?
Good question
A little off topic but apparently Jade Empire is free on Origin as part of the Origin -On the House games EA sometimes gives away. I know some of you had expressed interest. I'm not sure if this is restricted by territory.

I was debating whether I should buy this. Thanks!
Mezilandre over at Tumblr posted these voiceclips. Just thought I'd share it here.
Can you save people from themselves?

Apparently, people are having issues adding + downloading it (me included - though I have it on Steam, I was trying to add it to my Origin account), but they should work the issues out.
edit: And if anyone else is still having residual Lost Elf feels, I offer this
