#in the memories when he is Fen'Harel The Dread Wolf he has hair and god powers

[crysdrawsthings]

The most important piece of lore I got from the Veilguard so far is that Solas' god power was contained in his hair

omg guys it’s time

I don’t know what level of executive dysfunction it takes to put off first buying and then reading a book you really want to read, that it relates to your hyperfocus and day dreams... Just seeing it every day and not touching it... And I could've just skipped to the end. Yet I didn't.

Chapter 15: Dread Wolf Take You, Patrick Weekes

Sage is the name of my mom's D&D character

And I used to get pedicures from a lady with that kind of crazy memory

"A slender man wearing bright silks whose iridescent hues were complemented by an opal-inlaid full-face mask done to look like dragon's scales, with curly blond locks that hung about his shoulders."

Wishing now that I hadn't spoiled myself v.v

"The Inquisition's Wolf" damn right

It says he worked with them for a year. I thought the timeline was closer to 2 years? 🤷

Interesting that Charter is still referring to it in present tense as The Inquisition, considering it appears default world state is that the Inquisition disbanded

I mean I know that in my head they ""disbanded"" by down sizing and PRETENDING they don't exist so they could move in secret

lol Meredith is referred to as Merry the Mad

Didn’t know that. Or that Varric specifically quarantined the area where she turned into a statue. Makes sense, but I can't remember if anything in my Marigolds in the Hanged Man fic references it wrong

I can't believe the idol was actually there! I mean, according to the narrator. I appreciate them taking the time to retcon it 😂 though based on DA:I they won't really have info on it in DA4 (like Celene/The Masked Empire) so anyone who played the games but didn't read the books is going to be like... Wait

". . . and his accent does sound Dalish, only more formal, like he's reading from a poem even when he's not. . ." 😍 Heart eyes mfer gimme that verbal spell component language

Damn can you imagine being Solas sitting here, listening to that story, finding out for the first time 1) what you wanted to learn (who has the idol) but also 2) your agents left a fucking witness AND 3) the elf who they failed to rescue was supposedly killed by one of their own stray arrows??

Like, you know they lied about that shit on the report. They're soo fired.

ALSO very MUCH of my post-Inquisition/DA4 speculation fix comes from 'well dwarves don't dream, so he can't get them' but apparently ancient elves -- not Solas -- can just fucking murder people, including dwarves, magically in their sleep. So.

Danarius??

Charter is scary observant. Clumsy hair toss I get, but I wouldn't notice ring tan lines while the rings were still on

Love that the Qunari have infighting, that the writers aren't just making them one big evil hive mind

Loving the little details that would make this a great second read if you hadn't been spoiled like I have. The bard not being afraid when he should be, the bard making sure everyone doesn't fight and stays on topic, the Mortalitasi being like 'are you a mage? No? Then shut up' like you just know he's dying just trying to get through this fucking meeting to find his idol his damn self because his agents fucked up

Oh dang that's one hell of a ritual

Don't do magic with strangers, kids

Gods how much do I love this man still

🤣 still bitter about the Wardens. So good.

Huh. Qunari invented flashlights. Makes sense, given that they hate magical, that they're going to be more scientifically advanced.

Like I already knew for sure that the emotionless Dread Wolf™️ from the teaser was Solas putting on a show but asfggdhjj HIM pretending to be someone else saying "I saw the Dread Wolf! His face was empty of all expression!' is fucking... God you're such a try hard, this is EMBARRASSING

It's literally 'I saw Fen'Harel take his shirt off and he had an 8 pack. That Fen'Harel is shredded.' I'm

He's so fucking dramatic guys

I mean fair but how would you drink tea with a full mask on anyway

So Solas’ accent “Sounds Dalish but more formal”. First of all, amazing that the Dalish kept not just the accurate Vallaslin depictions but somehow their accent?? After thousands of years?? Amazing.

Also I tweeted Weekes once if all the ancients/evanuris in DA4 were going to have Welsh accents but they did not answer

Aaahhhhhhhh

Sigh. Okay. It is done.

... oh, so that's why my executive dysfunction prevented me from reading it. I have no more canon Solas content to look forward to for several years....

🥺
