Matt Rhodes uploaded old official concept art of Solas and Lavellan in Trespasser DLC, titled “ComeWithMe.jpg”

I just love the Trespasser DLC so much, it captures so much of my love for the series.

It’s not even about Solas, per se. It’s about the visceral feeling that you’re walking through a ruin of a world, that you’re witnessing desperation, it hammers in a message of being lost in time, lost to time, much like the best Deep Roads bits in the series have managed. You hear a dying civilization, you feel their disbelief and anger - what did he do, what did he do, the Evanuris will come for us - and you piece together the puzzle of what happened through fragments and murals (GOD THE MURALS) and conversations and Cole and the whole time there is immense pressure on the Inquisitor because the political landscape is imploding now that the urgent threat of Corypheus is gone and the bloody Qunari invade and your hand, your damn hand is killing you and you still have to chase these leads through the Deep Roads that are always evoking emotions of fear and beauty and the tragedy of history and through Crossroads that are broken and beautiful and haunted. The first time, I had tears in my eyes for large chunks of the playthrough simply because it was so emotionally charged. And when you replay it you realise Solas is there the whole time, telling you the truth, offering a trail to follow and you see another dimension of the wreckage, sees his grief, his desperation. My people were wrong about you, you can tell him and he protests, saying that what you’ve seen is just another version of the story, painted in desperation to give him more credit than he ever deserved. The score in the background is killing you with its emotions and the view from where you stand is so gorgeous you could cry as Solas tells you - in fucking Hallelujah cadence no less because poetry - what he did, how he caused the fall of his own people and must heal the wound he inflicted and you can tell him you would never have thought him the kind of person who could do what he is now about to do. Thank you, Solas says, as though it’s the kindest thing anyone’s ever said to him and it probably is. And it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t change anything though the epilogue hints that it might still be a fraction of hope left because even if a tragedy states that the main character is doomed, his downfall must not be brutal, perhaps there is a path through all the debris and broken worlds, perhaps you will find it.

Finishing with a quest line in the Trespasser DLC. I played as an elf and went to talk with a Sera that loves the Inquisitor. The first thing she does is ask if they're okay with the revelations. Then I pick up her journal and it's a reminder to, "Ask if he's okay— important— elfy things matter to him. Says he is okay but keep watch anyway." (To paraphrase). I love Sera.

To bind his life force to the Veil, Solas cut into his left palm.

The same side, the same shape as the mark the Inquisitor bore on their left hand.

Even after so many playthroughs, witnessing the sheer POWER Solas has is INCREDIBLE

Lavellan def has scary dog privileges

I can't wait to see how powerful he is in Veilguard

Am I the only one that thinks that Ghilan'nain, Elgar'nan and Solas were seriously nerfed?

Solas was able to turn people into stone and blow things up with just a thought, at the end of Trespasser he was terrifying and hot too. While the Evanuris were so damn powerful (especially Elgar'nan) that it was almost impossible to defeat them, with rebels fighting for so long (probably centuries) that desperation grew so badly that Solas had to literally create the damn Veil to even stop them. But then they show up again and a group of misfits are capable of killing two Evanuris (that are using Blight magic so technically they're more powerful than usual) in less than a year. Seriously? Just like that? I genuinely thought it was going to be harder to defeat them, especially after we saw what Solas was capable of in Trespasser. I expected more from the main villains. They were kinda lame imo, not terrible just lame. Honestly Corypheus was slightly more interesting to fight which is a sad thing to admit for villains that were super hyped up to be ridiculously powerful
