Mahariel’s Letter To Lavellan:

To Their Worship, Inquisitor Lavellan: I appreciate your warning regarding Corypheus. Fortunately, my own search has taken me out of the area where the supposed magister is operating, and while I have encountered challenges of my own, they have not involved any weakness related to my Grey Warden abilities. As I have little useful information to offer, please accept the accompanying gifts instead. If, in my quest, I find anything that may be of use to you in your fight against Corypheus, I will send it to you immediately. I have also included a note of a personal nature for Warden Alistair. Please take care of him. Like me, he was instrumental in ending the last Blight. I trust his compassion and his strength above any other's, and I would not go though such effort to overcome our Callings only to lose him to your Inquisition. In closing, I wish you luck. This world of the shemlen is a difficult one for our kind, and I can only imagine the pressure of leading the Inquisition, an organization dedicated to the Chantry, while staying true to the Way of the Three Trees. May Mythal protect you in your quest, and Andruil bless your hunt. Yours, Warden-Commander Mahariel of Ferelden

You want me to look at myself in the mirror? The thing that killed Tamlen in Dragon Age Origins?

dragon age origins game of all time. which I only say because I am playing it again

[abyssal-ilk]

it's all fun and games when you make your canon warden into your canon inquisitor until you have to make them choose between saving alistair and hawke in the fade. their best friend or varric's best friend. only one can make it out.

'this little flat-eared bitch'

'THIS LITTLE FLAT-EARED BITCH'

merrill feels so rejected already and then they make her eat this line.... marethari said preserve our people's history and merrill tried and marethari said no not like that. she was so dedicated to living up to the title of Keeper that she chose exile in a human city - because it's a Keeper's job to remember, even the dangerous things! and in return they call her monster, traitor, little flat-eared bitch -

[championsandheroes]

I'm not even sure who is the most to blame here - the Dalish clan or Duncan. I am, however, certain that they are all to blame for Tamlen's fate.

3 for hamal...my beloved....my beloved hamal....from the codex prompts

3. a report written by your OC’s teacher or mentor

An aged letter from Keeper Marethari of Clan Sabrae to Keeper Ealar of Clan Alerion, dated 9:16 Dragon, found among the latter’s possessions following his death. It is written in Elvhen, strongly formal, with a trembling hand.

Ealar,

The rumors are not false. You have the truth of it. Clan Sabrae is in dire need of magical talent, and the role of First has gone unfilled for far too long.

I wish it were not so, but there are many things I wish. Our late Keeper was with us for over thirty years, and his absence is a wound still keenly felt.

I am of the opinion that Mahariel’s child might yet manifest his father’s abilities. I have been training the child myself, attempting to coax some magic from him. So far my efforts have been fruitless. How my heart breaks for the little one, being brought up without his parents. He is of an age where he must surely see what others have, and what he has not. But if his father’s magic remains within him, it will be like having a piece of Hirael survive in the bitter world.

I have hope. Yet, for the sake of my clan, I must prepare for every outcome. My friend, I am hoping you would aid us in this difficult circumstance.

We can discuss this in detail when next we meet.

Marethari

do you think tamlen and mahariel had being orphans in common, or that he had parents that mahariel had to beg forgiveness from

[cilant-lis]

augh the mahariel origin gets me every time.. the tragedy that could have been so easily prevented, clan sabrae losing two of their young ones, the survivor's guilt that must be felt by mahariel, how they not only lose their best friend, but have to leave their entire life behind

and for what? to go through a ritual likely to kill them, one that even if they survive for now, only lets them live a few more decades on borrowed time? a life in which they are likely to never see their family again?

[a-gay-bloodmage]

Trying to write a fic set during Nature of the Beast and I'm in genuine agony over the fact that Zathrian's Clan doesn't have a fucking Clan name

What is with Dragon Age and not giving Dalish Clans proper names half the time? I swear, it's like these Inktober prompts exist to make me question my knowledge of this entire series...

[ruushes]

where would they like to be buried for ailill?

this is a rly interesting question for him! he would *like* to receive dalish rites but believes himself too blighted to safely bury. at the same time he very much does not want to follow the warden tradition of going to the deep roads to die fighting darkspawn bc 1) he hates the deep roads so so much and 2) he's very afraid that he wouldn't be killed before deteriorating to the point of essentially becoming darkspawn himself

i think if he died without/before any cure for the calling he'd want his body to be burned, since there aren't rly any readily available better options; it's also what he had to do with tamlen's body which would feel right to him in a sort of deranged way

[dellamortethelesser]

again learning anything about how the chantry and mages interact from alistair, in a mahariel origin, who has presumably had limited interactions with humans (dialogue in the intro indicates you did not go to the village for trading with shems) is insane. "what's a templar" and alistair describes them specifically as hunting and killing mages. that the chantry wants to control them because they're dangerous. so far things are not boding well for nomaris.

[qunaricatnip]

duncan is such an interesting character and yet I don't think ive ever played a warden that actually liked him
