(video) Trick Weekes describes another rule they follow when writing Solas (which explains why players have had completely opposite reactions to him)(x)

A random thought I had about DA: Dreadwolf at 2am….

[pintura]

Voice ringing with fullness from both worlds, guiding me to the shining places. He calls himself Pride.

[literallybyronic]

me and the Girlies (gn) about to make some objectively fucking terrible decisions in DATV:

[thessaralka]

you know what compels me about solas is he's a watcher. he knows all this shit that could totally help you out, but he lets you figure it out for yourself. keepts his mouth shut the entire time and just observes.

you're telling me this thousands-of-years old dude has NEVER been to the temple of mythal? where there are statues dedicated to him?? he has NEVER been inside a titan? no he absolutely has, and he's saying nothinggggg about it.

apart from the fact that he knows exactly what caused the breach and why, the blights, the evanuris, he also knows a bunch more shit about everything you're doing, and he's just along for the ride while you figure it all out by yourself, which he lets you do btw bc you're a smarty mc smartypants and he trusts that you're intelligent enough to do so. or not. he could probably care less (but if you constantly pleasantly surprise him, he cares).

you could argue that he's verbose, but compared to what he knows - thousands of years of knowledge - he gives us nothing. he's a fae creature. he lets us believe half truths and misdirects us constantly. he knows all this stuff, but never lets us in on it, thatttt intrigues me.

I'm sorry if other people saw and talked about this already, but I just noticed something

Solas has the knife in his right hand here when the statues are falling

He also has it when he's casting the spell to stop the statue

Varric is right beside Solas and the statue is falling on both of them.

There's an explosion that's either a different pov of the same spell Solas cast or a separate explosion (of the veil opening?) (I can't tell)

This explosion causes several huge rocks to fall in all directions. None of the rocks or debris glow.

Then we see Solas looking down toward where Varric was standing and where Rook now is, when the statue was falling toward him in the other direction.

Varric was behind Solas, and is now nowhere to be seen.

And after the explosion, Solas does not have the dagger in his hand.

There is nothing glowing on the ground here when Varric is backing up as the statues are falling, but there is a glowing object that is giving off green sparks, resting on a dark object at the bottom of the stairs JUST after the explosion.

The only thing in the scene that glows green in that color and gives off green sparks is the dagger.

I think Solas must have lost the dagger.

And it might have landed down near Rook.

And I can't tell what the dark object is under the glowing one, but either the glow makes it look like it's moving, or it's moving. Is it Varric? Did Varric fall all the way down the stairs? Did Solas lose both the dagger and his friend got hurt?

And that's why he's looking so sad down in the "wrong" direction? He was worried about Varric, or the dagger flew down that way? Both?

The whole sequence is very strange in 0.25 speed, almost like parts of it were cut out for this trailer. If Varric is not that dark shape at the bottom of the stairs, where exactly did Varric go? Where did the dagger go?

The only detail I know for sure is that Solas doesn't have the dagger anymore when he's facing the evanuris.

What I imagine the cover of a comic about the Dreadwolf looks like.
