I just stumbled over a bank vault down in the cellar by coincidense. Inside was a pile of gold coins and 'Lord Trifles Minutiae' the Quiquisition guy was standing inside.
I thought "What the f..." is that?

WOW! Holy crap, that's awesome!!!!!!
*grabs top hat and puts it on*
*starts swimming through the giant piles of gold coins*
Aaaaaaaaah, I went back to Skyhold (finally) and remembered to talk to Gatsi and have a look at the mural, but...it's missing a piece, even though it's complete. *headdesk* Anyway, here's the picture (at least I got the codex entry...):

That is amazing. I don't think I have any of those perks this time around, and I'm pretty sure I'm too late to get them. No way I want to grind out that kinda influence, heh. Not for three perks. one maybe, but not three. Bummer. I must find the vault next game.... if only to reassure Bull that he will get paid.
Today I realized I tend to always try and please every character during dialogue.
I regret not being blunt more often. I met Hawke's friend (can't remember his name) and at some point I had three options.
I could've told the wardens were
A: Desperate B: Scared or C: Fools.
Should have picked C.
"Oh no, I'm like a dumb animal that can't question its own instincts! (the calling)"
They don't even bother trying to confirm anything.
I get this. I kinda feel that's where the approval system lets us down. Maybe the should've hid the "companion greatly disapproves" stuff from popping up on the screen, and changed their behavior towards us when we talk to them instead.

So, Kuruk Adaar finally got the nerve to make the necklace of Kadan. Splitting the tooth of High dragon he'd just killed - his fourth and counting - sparked an undeniable sense of awe and excitement in his Vashoth veins. Perhaps his parents had some of that old Atashi blood hiding in one of them and had passed it on to him. Probably not, but with both of his parents dead after the last Blight, it was something he could pretend was true. Adaar took great care in making it, and finally passed it on to Bull... after an inexplicably tragicomic surprise intrusion from his advisors. Adaar figured Sera had something to do with it- it was Bull's room after all, located just above the pub - so it never made sense to him how they knew where he'd be that evening. Or maybe it was Leliana. For a spymaster, he'd heard she was quite the gossip. Nonetheless, it didn't diminish the moment the two finally shared together. There was a strange sense of irony in two Tal-Vashoth participating in a Qunari ritual, clinging to a heritage stemming from a society they were pariahs of. To hell with it.
Kuruk Adaar soon found new conflict in his public affairs, judging a few new captives after a drought of leaving the infamous chair empty. It never really fit him, but he made it work somehow. He threw the fanatical Erimund in prison; executing him would only make a martyr out of him. Adaar wanted him to be alive when Corypheus was finally defeated; Erimund would be broken in a way that no ordinary punishment could cause. With the help of the mysterious Morrigan, they tracked down Corypheus' next goal: an Elven ruin dedicated to Mythal. The things set into motion there changed everything Adaar thought he knew about the world.

Need a little help with Solas. Romancing him but is he buggy? Internet said to exhaust his conversation and talk to him at Skyhold to get him to take you to Haven in the fade. I have tried three times to exhaust this conversation. Gone out of Skyhold and returned. No. Still asking him about Coryfool and getting the same answers. This game seems worse after that last patch. (Waaahh!)
So today, Harold and the gang of Blackwall, Bull, and Solas wrapped things up in the Hissing Wastes. Rifts (and many demons), shards, venatori, wyverns, lurkers, fennecs, and oh yeah, the Sandy Howler . None were a match for the boys. Bull and Solas continued their chess game. I think Solas is luring Bull into a false sense of security, but we'll see.
I picked up so much loot and schematics and crafting goods that I'm gonna be Skyhold for a little while now to sort it all out and see what I can craft for Harold. May as well now, right? We're off to the Temple of Mythal next, so no point saving anything. I've really been hoarding my crafting materials, too. Woo!
Also completed another mosaic tonight and you'll never believe it... this one is actually complete on the wall. It's hanging on the other side of the hall, across from Gatsi the mosaicist, and just to Varric's left, on the other side of the table next to him.
As an added bonus, I'll include the text from the codex entry about it.

The Mason's Tales: Sacrifice
From what I can figure, this one is called "Sacrifice." I'll get back to that later. By two sculptors, and I'll get back to that sooner.
The sculptor's gone to the trouble of faces. I'd guess she worked from portraits, which means they were people who considered themselves important enough to need them. The scene is a classic example of "don't do this" because the sculptor hates them. It's in the way it's carved: all fast, hard edges. Uglier than they need to be, even for your average tevinter, who -- and this isn't just me, mind -- stands like a lanky vein of lyrium. But don't mistake that for sloppy carving. It's natural, practiced. The carver knows tevinter. Bet she is one, and it's self-hate, probably.
And obvious enough. There's skulls all over, and two big and horned. That brings to mind your Qunari, and fair enough, right? Tevinters hate qunari and have ever since they showed up. Odd thing, though, is that those two are not the only Qunari in the carving. The one in the middle was sculpted with horns, and someone has gone in later and chipped them off. You can tell by the surface of it. Well maybe you can't, but I can.
Seen it happen time and again. Tastes change, and the ancestor's nudes are suddenly embarrassing. So in comes a new hand to paint on some clothes. And here, judging by the marks, to cut away horns and make the victim look human. Some proud new owner didn't want to throw out the antiquity, but also didn't want people to think grandm'ma sliced up Qunari. Looks like they didn't care if she kept their heads around, though.
So! The carvers both wanted to show tevinter being shits, but the later one didn't want to show what about. And that's usually to avoid blame or deny credit. Or to be an arse, I suppose.
I guess I have to detour to the Temple of Pride before going to the Arbor Wilds, now that I have all the shards.

This Sunday, I played for about 6 hours. Unlocked Western Approach and pretty much completed all of the missions there. I have a few random little quests still to go, like turning in some dragon research to that guy and finding one last landmark. But all of the essential quests are done. I finished the personal quest for Blackwall too. Now I'm working on completing my rogue specialization.
What was really cool was getting my new long shot weapon. Man! The damage it does is amazing. Depending on what I'm up against, the critical hit points are massive. I had a couple over 2000. Against something stronger like a demon or giant, it's only in the 600s to 900s. But still. I took out a bandit with one hit.
I haven't been bothering with finding the shards. My boyfriend has already finished the game and said that the loot you get wasn't really worth the effort of finding them all. Anyone else feel this way?
Also, I haven't gotten Leliana's personal quest yet. Isn't that the one where you'll go to some Chantry with her and you can decide to talk her out of killing someone? My conversation options with her have been the same the last few times I've been to see her. Cassandra; however, still has more options from time to time. I also get more cut scenes with her. (The romance novel bit was gold.)
One last question: are there any other quests or things I should do before continuing the Inquisitor's storyline? I have been waiting to complete a few more things before heading into the abyss.

If you haven't been to Hissing Wastes, I would suggest checking the area.
Doing the quest 'Tomb of Fairel' will give some nice tier 3 schematics for weapons and a merchant that sells tier 3 armor schematics. Have lots of coin if planning on purchasing anything

Thanks for the news and links ...but, just to let you know -- and maybe it's just me -- the french and german language links wouldn't load for me. On the english download page there's a link to the french versions in the comments.

Gosh, I just wondered where these comments should be. Until I figured, I should deactivate Ghostery -.-
Enchanters!
The time has come to be alive
In the Circle of Magi, where we will thrive
With our brothers.
Enchanters remind
That time will not unwind.
The dragon’s crooked spine,
Will never straighten into line.
What we plea will be
A faithful end decree,
Where a man will not retreat
From the defeat of his fathers.
Enchanters!
A time has come for battle lines.
We will cut these knotted ties,
And some may live and some may die.
Enchanter, come to me
Enchanter, come to me
Enchanter, come to see
Can-a you, can-a you come to see,
As you once were blind
In the light now you can sing?
In our strength we can rely,
And history will not repeat.
Enchanter, come to me

Took on a giant and I dunno, someone must have stomped on his foot or he stubbed his toe, because all of a sudden he's hopping around holding his leg.
Finally worked out Lord Woolsey. Had never talked to that guy in Redcliffe before. What wouldn't i have given to be able to say 'Cassandra? Go talk to Lord Woolsey'.

.
Yeah, me too.
I have the idea that it will get me a better support throught the story somehow. Isn't it always like that when you start on a new game? Cautious?
But I'm starting to think I am wrong. If I don't like the chantry I shouldn't lick anyone's feet, right?
I had this conversation with Solas the other day. I told him I didn't agree with him. Period!
He suddenly turned around on a dime, appologised and told me I was right.
It seems you have to be steadfast.
I guess all the challenges in this game confuses and numbs your judgement. But after a couple of playthroughs I guess you change priorities and make other decisions.
