Had the writers been willing to kill the HoF offscreen, they wouldn't have sent them on a offscreen quest.

Cause people like me would hate them so, so much for it.... 

 

 

Writers and story direction change over time.

No, we could already kill the HOF. So why kill the HOF if we already can?

Why not?

 

Again, things change.

Becuase for one, i wish the HOF to be left alone. And Revan. Revan was PC who was brought back. and someone who you had to kill. Hawke already a huge loser, just became a even bigger one in there camoe. I suggest that the HOF is just left be, to avoid any unnessary evilness or loser status that could occure.

Alas, Duran Aeducan is dead. He had lost everything, but played the dwarven political game better than Behlen and got his vengeance; he did not trust Morrigan fully. This led to him saving his closest friend, Alistair, by taking the final swing against the Archdemon and preserving the king's life.

There was a bit in the Last Flight that mentioned how being a Warden during a Blight speeds up the progress of the taint in their body, so they get to hear to Calling much sooner.   So Garahel and his sister only became Wardens just before the 4th Blight started and she was starting to hear the calling even before the end of the Blight 12 years later.     Now admittedly the 5th Blight lasted only a year but it might well have reduced the time somewhat.   I'm not saying it reduced it by enough that the HoF would be hearing it now but knowing that fact might have leant a bit of urgency to their quest.     It might also explain why many of the Wardens were taken in by the false calling even though normally they would not be near their time, because they knew that the Blight would have speeded things up a bit.

No. It has only been 11 years. That isn't enough time to start hearing the Calling. Alistair says you begin to hear the Calling when your time has come. The life-span is about 30 years. It should be another 17 or 18 years before the Hero starts hearing the Calling, sans Power of Blood in which case the Hero will live for ages.

 

Also, the fake Calling only affected the Wardens in and around southern Thedas. The Hero was far to the west and likely did not hear the fake Calling either.

 

It's also strange that an Alistair who is made king never mentions the fake Calling.

 

The Hero's letter makes it clear that the mission is to find the cure so that the Hero doesn't have to die 19 years from that time.

The Calling is a Grey Warden secret told on a need to know basis, and King Alistair isn't involved with the Inquisitor by the time the Inquisitor needs to know even as much as they end up knowing. (Or at least he's not involved in the mission that requires that the Inquisitor know it.) Besides, the secret that the king has decent evidence he's going to freaking die soon isn't the sort of thing you spread carelessly.

 

And this is assuming Alistair even heard the fake Calling, since we don't know how the spell that created it was targeted: if it targeted every being with a Warden body in Southern Thedas, he hears it, but if for example the Nightmare demon has to specifically choose to target every single person who's supposed to hear it then you wouldn't necessarily expect Alistair to hear it except as part of a plot conducted offscreen. Now, an offscreen plot to gaslight King Alistair would be a clever idea on Corypheus's part, because the childless King Of Ferelden committing suicide to avoid becoming a ghoul or desperately fleeing to Soldier's Peak to try to get his body under control or doing some other extreme reaction that precludes actively kinging around would be all that country needs during the events of Inquisition. (Particularly if he's ruling alone or with a wife who's also off researching the Calling.) Heck, even if Alistair keeps his head for the most part, he won't be at the top of his game dealing with a threat like this, and a distracted king is a win for anyone who wants to conquer his kingdom. But we don't know that any of that occured to Corypheus, or even that he knows that Alistair is physically a Warden unless Alistair is serving as one.

I'd say The Warden has a good 18-19 years left to find a cure before the Calling comes.

Well technically speaking Avernus solution is only delaying the calling even if it grants you 200+ years lifespan , so avernus research would be still worth of pursuit at least if you would like to become immortal.

 

those researches can be improved to achieve a perfect result,they have potential

Yes, Avernus research are as far we know are already very potent and possibly could be even more, it also prevents The Calling excuse for HoF at least for a long time.
