Going back to Cailan and Celene. If in case he does decide to divorce/annul Anora and marries Celene, would Gaspard even be against the potential union? 

 

Better question, does Gaspard, Loghain, or any other opposing factions have the smarts or the strength to pull a Red Wedding?

Gaspard might have been okay with it, even if it's not to his particular style.

 

Loghain would have done a Red Wedding.  Judging by his actions in Denerim, he's fully capable of it.

Ostagar NOT Loghain's supreme sin; that is only one among many.

still their is no need to keep loghain alive .
alistar have royal blood just like cailan . with anora cleaver rule and alistair leadership . Ferelden is good 

loghain can cause problem in the future . yes he did what he see good to the ferlandan but he may take it to a point of killing kings / wardens and sacrifing anything wich make him nothing than a mad man .
you etheir die a hero - ostigar battle - or live enought to becaume the vilain - landmeet-

Are you trying claim Loghain is not a villan or that he is not a bad villain? Because if it is the former then there are plenty of reasons to consider Loghain a villain even without taken how people may see his actions at Ostagar into account. A notably reason is him consenting to selling citizens of Fereldan into slavery. He was, if I remember correctly, unapologetic about it.

 

I dearly wished we had the following dialogue option as a response to when Loghain spouts this hypocritical line:

 

Loghain:  "How much Ferelden blood does Orlesian gold buy these days?"

Warden: "How much Ferelden blood does Tevinter gold buy these days?"

Shechinah,I agree with your ideas.. The writers missed their marks with several answers that would have been much,much better.

 

I fail to see how anybody can not see Loghain for the asp of a man he is.. He will never be spared in my games. He sealed his doom thrice .. First by sending assassins after  my warden, secondly allowing Howe to purge the Alienage and thirdly selling my wardens friends and family into slavery.

I took it as bad being an adjective describing villain. He's obviously a villain. I think he's a good one.

I like your idea too.

Why wouldn't it be a joint monarchy, like Spain under Ferdinand and Isabella? It doesn't make sense to speak of Aragon being a province under Castilian rule, nor the reverse. Probably not stable in the long term, but Ferelden is much more powerful and cohesive relative to Orlais than Aragon was relative to Castile. Or Scotland relative to England, etc.

 

Because Orlais is determined to get its "lost province" back. They have the stronger military, they have the stronger economy and they 99% of the time have the backing of the Chantry. 

 

What would be more likely to happen is that Celene would have had Anora "removed" to put it politely and it would likely be permanent, as in lethal, and would walk rings around Cailan and essentially absorb Ferelden into their culture.

Ferelden seems to be a weak nation in terms of politics and army compared to his neighbor, without the GW and the Inquisition I don't think that the country could've survived whatever Orlais was trying to do with it.

Apo,The GWs never ally their selves with any country they are a nonpolitical and independent  group of fighters that specializes in fighting Darkspawn raids and ending blights.

APO,I'm not really sure if Alistair or the HoF  should be made king or queen since he/she is a GW. I'm thinking  that might  violate the GW policy. I dunno.

I agree with you but you also have to remember that in Loghain's mind elves are not people.
Even Eamon used the slavery thing just to win against Loghain.
This is a common thing in Thedas to consider them as 2nd class citizens

Unless the Divine is with the warden of course

can we stop a moment . 
you are a grey warden . you condam him to death for his crime against the grey warden and not against Ferelden
we do not kill him for what his reason to betray the king or his action to rule or save Ferelden
we condam him for causing death of Duncan elder of the warden and the one that would have probably  killed the archdemon if he didnt die in ostigar.
for sending assassins to the remaining wardens aka alistar and the warden . who are the last hope to stop the blight .
for stoping wardens from Orlais  to enter Ferelden  and causing more problem to stop the bilght .

see , i dont kill him for  Ferelden politics . i kill him for his crime against the Grey wardens .

Those at Ostagar couldn't have been saved
Anyway that is a moot point since Riordan senior warden is against his execution and hardly his opinion is less valuable than the one of a young warden.

I recruit him because i find useful to have another GW  and the order is not about justice is about kill the archdemon only (spirit included)

Aren,Maybe I see him for what he really is and the need to kill him. I will never understand those that sets him free for his crimes.

 

Now personally a man that hired assassins to kill me or sold my family and friends into slavery  would receive a lovely dovey all is forgiven mercy. What he would see is a combat veteran on a killing spree.

 because mercy will set you free while revenge will restrain the chains of the vicious cycle of hatred!

DF,Lose the Landsmeet and see how much mercy he shows your warden,Alistair and Eamon.. He can't wait to have them taken outside and executed.

 

And yes,I know that from experience. :blush: That's another reason I show no mercy.

Using Anora's statement about Cailan having other women and still no children as proof that he's the infertile one in the pairing is shaky. She lies about other things, so why should we accept this at face value? Yes, kings historically had affairs and bastard children, but this is Thedas we're talking about. This history has a holy woman, not a man, so it doesn't make sense that Thedas would have the real world's double standard of "kings can do it, queens can't". (And actually, that double standard makes perfect sense. People can always be certain of a child's maternity, but not paternity unless the mother has been strictly monogamous.)
