Thinking about it, maybe a particularly conservative city state in the Free Marches would work, though Llormerryn's an interesting idea. I could even paper over what I've already written by saying that the Warden claims to be from Nevarra, but is actually from Llormerryn. Would Rivain have an ambassador at the court in Val Royeaux? I think of Orlais as being a very cosmopolitan place, but I don't know if that would extend to non-Andrasteans.
I know very little about Rivain, except that they're definitely not Andrastians and the northern part is under qunari occupation. Where government is concerned...I don't know. :/ The Codex entry for Rivain makes it sound like the country is deeply rooted in spirituality and prophecy, but has no mention of how the country is run or if there's even a central power that would bother to send ambassadors.
I suppose using the Chasind or other wilder tribes wouldn't work?

I'm going with him caring more about coming out of the war on top than the deaths of his son and wife. I've decided to pretend that Lady Landra didn't even live with him. Iona lives in the Alienage, which indicates to me that Landra is in Denerim most of the time. From there, I also decided that Dairren was not exactly the sort of son a man like Bann Loren would appreciate. It's all conjecture, but it's really the only way I can make Bann Loren mentioned in the HN origin fit with RtO Bann Loren.
I believe there is more than one alienage, meaning Denerim doesn't have the only one. I always took Iona to mean the Alienage where they are from, but I guess they could have lived in Denerim. That wasn't my impression though 
The reason people think she lived in Denerim? You see her crying daughter with her name in yellow when you go the the Denerim one and she says something about her mother being at Highever.
Highever does indeed have it's own alienage (it's mentioned in the CE origin -- that's where the CE's intended comes from, actually), but yeah, I think SurelyForth and Sarah are right. It looks like most, if not all nobles have estates in the capital. In one ending, Isolde says she wants to remain living in Arl Eamon's Denerim estate and not return to Redcliffe, so it also makse sense a noble or noblewoman could use it as a permanent residence, as SF suggested.
