SPOILERS!!!!! DON'T Read This If You Haven't Read Either Book

So is the golem from the Stolen Throne Shale?  Wilhelm is the same person who had Shale and the golem is mentioned quit a bit.  I don't remember seeing whatever happened to the mage anyways in the books.

Not sure if anyone else caught this but Sten and Duncan have 1 thing in common, cookies lol.  We all know that Sten loves cookies from the game.  Duncan's cookie thought is when he's trying decide whether going into the deeproads and the blight would be a good thing or not  "Maybe he should sit down and make up a list of all the good things that would get distroyed at the same time--like cookies.  The darkspawn would wipe out all cookies from the face of Thedas.  That would be bad, and alone made this entire endeavor seem more worthwhile."

I've kind of pinpointed how old Cailan is when we get to meet him.  He's about 29 24. 
Here's a timeline:
9:01 Cailan's born.
9:03 Maric is Coronated.
9:05 Cailan is born.
9:08 Rowan dies, Cailan is 7 3.
9:10 Cailan is 9 5 and if Alistair is Fiona's then that's the same year that Alistair's born.
9:30 is when our story comes to play.
So that makes Cailan 29  24 and Alistair 20 19.  It says in The Calling that Cailan is 9 when he (Maric) meets Fiona and the other Grey Wardens and goes with them to the Deep Roads, and that Rowan died 2 years before.  So there's about a 9 5 year difference between Alistair and Cailan.  Now I know some people have mentioned Alistair commenting on his brothers remark about "Oh swords" when they meet each other.  I don't remember if Alistair says how old he was when he gets sent to the Chantry (Anyone know)?  That would figure Cailan being between  14-18 10-15 for Alistair to actually remember.  That would make Alistair between the ages 5-9.

I've read somewhere that some people think that the Architect might be a Tevinter magister.  If the Architect isn't lying in the Calling then that would make that false because he does say that he doesn't know what an Old God is.  Never seen 1 in his lifetime.  And if that's the case then that would make the Architect born after 5:20 Exalted to 9:10 Dragon because 5:20 Exalted is when the last Blight ended.  Thats when the last Archdemon was.

I've got another theory on Flemeth and Maric.  I believe that the promise that Flemeth wanted from Maric was for him to allow the Grey Wardens back in Ferelden, maybe also that he was suppose to go with them into the deeproads.  She also told him when he would be dying and that there would be a blight.

So anyone else have anything to add


EDITED: Thanks klarabella, I never did see that lol.   So I changed the timeline a little.

Cailan's age is wrong. DG confirmed that there are several versions out and that Cailan is 5 in 9:10.

Alistair mentions he was 10 when he was sent to the Chantry.

It seems pretty certain to me that the golem is Shale.

The golem is Shale, and I laughed when she made a "cameo" appearance.

Well I wasn't sure if it was Shale because I remember being able to ask Shale about what she remembered about her past and she never does say anything about fighting in a war, well that war (not that I remember anyways lol.)
