Thats why especially after Witch Hunt, it seems to me that Morrigan is really tied to the Warden, whether they're The Hero of Ferelden or the Orlesian even. So to have her show up in the future with no sign of the Warden interacting with some new PC would really take the wind out of the sails for her plot. You do that and you end up with the sort of boring scene in WItch Hunt where you chat with her as the Orlesian- its all business like and not half as interesting if you're the original Warden. But even now the Orlesian has some history with Morrigan.Terra_Ex wrote...
Well he's not discounting the possibility, and the choices in WH are particularly relevant to the warden. She's not gonna be pissed at Hawke if the warden stabs her... But I'm just unsure on the timeline of the epilogues and which take precedence.
As for the timelines and epilogues, its hard to say as the epilogues jump all over the place time wise. Even in Witch Hunt I was a bit confused- in my import from Awakening on the map, you'll see Vigil's Keep. And when you mouse over it, it gives a brief update on it and it says something how its been 2 years since The Mother's attack. Which doesn't make sense- Origins ended and a couple months past to Awakening which took about 6 months to complete the events of. And then Witch Hunt is supposed to take place 1 year after the Archdemon died, or the end of Origins. So that doesn't even add up.

I know I read somewhere in an extendedd blurb for WH that Morrigan's trail went cold in Orlais (though the full version isn't in-game to my knowledge) so that implies that the DA:O & DA:A epilogues were not retconned... whilst potentially screwing up non romancers. Hmmm....
The dreaded Archdemon has been slain and the advance of the darkspawn halted by a lone, heroic Grey Warden. The kingdom rejoices, but at leastone question remains: what happened to Morrigan? The sorceress joined the Wardens cause, but it is said her true purpose was not revealed until the eve of the last battle. She vanished into the shadows, and while rumors claimed she crossed over the mountains into Orlais no traceof her path could be found. She was never heard from again... until now. Nearly a year has passed since the Archdemon's death, and word has reached the Wardens that Morrigan has returned to Ferelden. She has been sighted in the southern wilderness where she was first encountered. Is it truly her? If it is, then why is she here and what secret does she carry with her? The Warden heads into the forest to find out and tie up this last loose end once and for all.
It still reeks of a retcon to me- the fact that there was so much of a focus on Orlais in Origins and how in every epilogue Morrigan heads that way and that the Urthemiel Plateau is in Orlais, just seems like too much of a coincidence. The obvious answer is that they just retconned it to use old Origins assets again, just like Leliana's Song should have taken place in Orlais, but they hand waved that away by saying the events in that DLC were merely Leliana's retelling. Its pretty telling when outside of the DLC completed pre release like Shale or Warden's Keep, the rest just recycled environments (outside of Awakening). I'm just wondering if Awakening ate up their DLC budget and thats why the later stuff is all recycled...

Did he actually confirm that? I know it came up as a question, but I thought it was one where he smiled or said "maybe.."
Hmm...I'd have to check again....
