For those of you that have completed Trespasser, would you be willing to indulge a few questions from a DA veteran that hasn't played the DLC yet? I lost my Inquisition save file - long story - and don't really have the desire to complete the game from scratch a second time, so I watched xLetalis' Trespasser uploads on YouTube, but a few things are a little bit unclear for me.
First off, does the following summary capture, more or less, the major revelation of the dlc? Feel free to correct me if I am misinterpreting things: ages and ages ago, the ancient elven gods, who were really just powerful mages, killed Mythal and drove Solas/Fen'Harel into such a fit of rage that he imprisoned them beyond the Veil. It was this separation - and not contact with humans - that precipitated the quickening, and caused the elves to lose their immortality. Now Solas is on a quest to restore the elven people to their past glory, and in order to do so, he needs to tear down the Veil, which will in all likelihood lead to the destruction of Thedas as we know it.
In regard to the fate of the Inquisition, is it accurate to say that the player is basically confronted with two choices? i.e. continue as an official organization, but reduced in number and serving as the honor guard to the Divine, or disband and go underground.
A couple more questions that I have. Pick and choose what you like, or ignore them all if that's more your fancy:
Are the age-old questions from Origins and DA 2 still unanswered, namely the identity or existence of the Maker, and the nature of the Black City?
Are the Old Gods of the Tevinter Imperium the same as the Elven gods, or is that unknown at this point?
Why does the Inquisitor feel the need to go to Tevinter in order to pursue his struggle against Solas? Is it because his own ranks have been compromised, he can't trust his traditional allies, so he needs to draw on more unconventional resources? e.g. Dorian and his contacts in the empire?
Seems like the other elephant in the room, the cause of the first Blight and the origins of the Arch Demon and Darkspawn, is still up for debate as well.
I'm very curious to see what role the Inquisitor plays in DA 4. For some reason, I think that it will be analogous to Hawke in Inquisition. He has a vested interest in the contest with Solas, so he needs to at least serve in an advisory capacity (whether behind the scenes or not), but since the devs always say that Dragon Age is more about a place and time rather than a person, I think it's unlikely that he will be the protagonist.
Anyways, sorry for the lengthy post, and thanks for entertaining my numerous questions.
