Hi! all

 

So, i was just reading this certain reddit post about a certain Designer notes: https://www.reddit.c...ne_explained/#s

 

the Spoiler im wanting to ask/confirm/talk about is the Spoiler thats immediately after "This contains major spoilers, so be warned - this could spoil you a big deal of future DA events." in that reddit post. i had been wondering if it would be better for Morrigan to have the well or the Inquisitor (and not just as a part of a "good" or "bad" play-through but as a moral/storyline POV) which lead me to that reddit post. to me that spoiler says that Morrigan would be the better one to have the well's power than Inquisitor as Flemeth apparently desires Morrigan to have her essence in Morrigan rather than what is misunderstood by Morrigan and so Morrigan having those whispers in her head could guide her to realizing her misunderstandings and possibly even guide her to her own mother Flemeth (guessing she might be alive, after all, through Kieran or Solas<-from the end-credits scene>) and this could severely impact the story content after DAI (unless the end up choosing yet another new protagonist for DA4, i hope not)

 

so i guess im asking as to what do y'all think would be better decision to go with in regards to the well (i do know that either way for DAI's ending it matters not but still..), esp if ya know any hint or fact in regards to Morrigan after DAI<novel or DA4 wise> (esp as my current human inquisitor will be disbanding Inquisition after Trespasser, and Kieran has soul of OGB)

 

thx

Do what you feel like honestly , we don't know if we'll ever see Morrigan or any consequences of the well of sorrows in the future.

Devs notes are just that , notes . It hints at the intent of the devs when crafting the game , it doesn't mean what they imagined is set in stone far from it.Things changes.

 

Anyway but let's say yes Flemeth wanted to pass her godhood to Morrigan etc...yes her drinking from the Well is better storywise.

But it means she is bound to her mother and her will , well Mythal's.

Remember you can't force a soul upon the unwilling?Well suddenly it would become very muddy in a situation where Morrigan drank and Mythal possess her.

It really depends on how you view Morrigan.

 

Some people really don't trust her, and  don't want her getting a power edge in any sense of the word. They think her underserving of the power so they have the Inquisitor drink it.

Others dislike Morrigan but allow her to drink anyway because it chains her to Mythal.

Some people even just let her drink because out of the two of them, Morrigan is the one who utilize it the most.

 

Then you have to form opinions on how exactly you view Flemeth. Because either way she is essentially gaining an (un)willing servant that she can/will use and if you think she is a person of shady morality you don't want to hand her someone she's going to get the most worth out of. For some, that means keeping Morrigan as far away from her as possible.

I don't dislike Morrigan per se, but in my world states where she doesn't have Kieran, I like to let her drink just for the great irony of it all. She finally gets the power she's been seeking for the last 10 years, but in exchange loses the very thing she wanted that power for. It's just such a perfect step along her story.

In worlds with Kieran, I usually have the Inquisitor use the Well, since it gives her a pressing reason to get the hell outta dodge after the final battle.

As to the consequences of the decision either way, the realistic answer is pretty much as Reznore said: there have been no consequences to either one written into the story yet, and it remains to be seen if there ever will be at all. Thus, there really isn't a good or bad choice there, and even if there was, it's really only a matter of flipping a switch in the Keep once the game comes out, anyway.

There's one consequence in Trespasser

 

- if the Inquisitor drank from the Well, he/she can talk to the Spirits of the Ancient Elves and they will let them pass.

- if Morrigan drank from the Well, then the Spirits will attack the Inquisitor, because he/she doesn't know the code phrase.

 

But that's really the only difference as far as I know.

Oh I forgot that one.

You can also read the codices in ancient elven writing from Mythal Temple too.

Ah, yes, that too.

Depends how you view your Inquisitor. If he or she is nothing to you, then best to just use them as a sacrificial pawn, just in case Mythal turns out to be malicious. Better that Mythal control some powerless, one-armed, nobody, instead of Morrigan.

Though it's also possible that Solas would anticipate any action a compelled (ex)Inquisitor might do, based on his own knowledge of the Well and Mythal.

More than likely, Mythal will work against Solas, not in his favor. Otherwise it would basically render the Inquisitor powerless to stop Solas. So in this case, having Morrigan be the one to do it would be fine. Otherwise your ex-Inquisitor is just Mythal's puppet. Which might be okay for an elf. But, Mythal might negate any desire the ex-Inquisitor has to kill Solas. On the other hand, if you try to kill Solas and Morrigan is controlled, Mythal might use her to protect Solas. Which means you would have to kill Morrigan first.

Elvhen history should go to an Elf. 

 

If you're not an Elf, then you should still take it, just to keep it away from Morrigan.

Thank you that is good to know.

And thank you to no i know that that ***** will never drink from the well of sorrows again. When i buy the DLC's 

[Big I]

I drank from the Well for two reasons:
 

1) I wanted to save Morrigan from being a slave to Mythal (who I knew was Flemeth because of spoilers). It probably won't save Morrigan from her mother but I had to try.

 

2) I wanted the power and knowledge of the Well to go to the Inquisitor and the Inquisition.

wait, what now!?  ..i hope u didnt say what i think Patricia08 thanked u for yes!?...afaik without the well even if u have the codices, upon interacting with that spirit, u have to fight 'em..no!?

Yes, the two things aren't related. It's just if the Inquisitor drinks from the Well, s/he can understand what the codices say, and also give the guardians the password to get by without fighting. The codex entries have nothing to do with the spirits.

Too bad there was no "destroy the Well" option.
