My Dalish Elf would react by using the sword at the root of the problem. You see he/she is very proud of being Dalish and of the Dalish peoples..

It would have been painful for Maharial to learn the truth of the Evanuris, but he eventually would have probably converted to Andrastianism. He is dating the Divine after all.

I role-played my Dalish like how I felt about neo/syncretic indigenous (north america) beliefs presented to me by my community as a child/pre-teen. Which was an ambivalent feeling. On the one hand there is a sort of reverence for these ideas, but there is also a disconnect. You know some of it is based in truth and you know a lot of the pieces are missing or changed in the turmoil of a culture uprooted/subjugated/killed/persecuted and don't really reflect how you live now. Blind faith is not as easy in such a society. I also imagined my Dalish felt his "gods" were like how I imagined various god-figures, spirit powers, and mythic era humans from my culture. So, not like how Christians, Jews, or Muslims imagine the concept of a God. Even Ancient Greek imagining of the divine (the whole concept of divine is kind of bizarre in some world-views), which was rooted in philosophical constructs of beauty, perfection, and divisions of matter and the ages of the Earth, are far, far from how some cultures imagine the supra-natural forces of their belief systems.

 

So, I imagine he would not have really cared about the Vallaslin thing. He might feel uncomfortable about them being slave markings, but he sees it for what they represent now. Similarly to how most Americans use the word "terrific" to mean good when it is derived from "terror" and can also mean "full of terror."

 

I imagine he would not have been too surprised about the revelations about the Evanuris, as, again, I imagined my Dalish viewed his Gods quite differently than how most people seem to view gods (as omnipotent things) (I never thought god-like forces as a kid were all knowing, all powerful or anything. In fact it creeped me out hardcore that Santa Claus song about him knowing if you've been bad or good and watching you while you sleep because no benevolent forces did that in my world-view). He would be skeptical of Solas/Fen'Harel being a reliable source of information onto what the Evanuris deserved or what they did, as, if you'll notice, he was vague about that and Solas did and will do what he claimed they were doing which was so bad (destroying the world). He'd be disappointed in Mythal for not revealing herself to the Dalish or any Elves really, but he would have had a new reverence for her for saving him, helping him end the Blight (Morrigan of the team) and survive (she is the originator of the Dark Ritual).

 

He would be pretty anti Elves working with Fen'Harel to destroy the world. That's like a no duh. But he would probably be sympathetic to them, especially if Solas has been lying or omitting truths from them. He would not kill them unless he had no choice and would probably hope to help them see how destructive Solas is.

If your Warden killed Flemeth in DAO, wouldn't s/he have a sudden "OHH ****" feeling?

Sure, she survived just fine, but it doesn't change the fact that you attacked her with that intent.

Nah, my alive Dalish Elf (Morrigan romaces everywhere!) wouldn't care. He'd respond "I killed one of my gods? Wow! I am so much more epic!" He'd care of course about the past of the elves and how the Dalish were built up on lies... But he'd casually tell his keeper he killed Mythal (in her Dragon form) to watch her reaction. To him, it'd be hilarious for his keeper to know that he killed Mythal. But he has Morrigan, so he's less afraid of being killed by Mythal in his sleep.

I played my Dalish Warden like Spock, but a Spock that had sex a lot more than every seven years. LOL We all have vices, that was his. Anyway. My Warden understood that his knowledge was limited, things aren't always what they seem and one thing existing doesn't necessarily mean another thing can't also exist. My Warden discovering that Dalish Gods are just powerful mages would have just made him raise his eyebrow in fascination.

My Warden would thus likely have gotten along with the academic that Solas is... right up to the I must kill the world part. Then My Warden would attempt reason, failing that go Chris Reeve Superman and plead for the people (all of them not just the ones Solas sees as real), then failing that go Henry Cavill Superman and snap the villain's neck.
