IT'S A LITERAL MIND PALACE
does anyone actually understand how solas manages to “castle” rook. like yes i understand he “molded them into someone the prison would accept” but what the fuck does that actually mean. why does the prison only accept certain people? did he design it that way? did his molding even work if they were just able to leave? what happened that made him know it was time to switch places? am i supposed to believe it’s that rook sent one of their friends to die and solas knew and went “ok well now we’ve both killed our friends so we can switch now”??? what? what’s the magical mechanism by which the switch happens? the blood magic connection? if the davrin/harding death was the signal then how did solas know it happened? has he been able to see through their eyes this entire time? or was it an emotional distress that he sensed??? how does he appear to them visually before he’s left the prison?? is he a hallucination?? how does he get them physically into the prison? what kind of magic is he using to do this?? blood magic??? it is it classic fen’harel fade magic? he uses the dagger to escape so did he just need the dagger? how did he get rook from the island to the fade physically to take the dagger from them to leave the prison?? what kind of magic does that? im just supposed to accept this and not ask questions?
#imagine that gif of Benedict Cumberbatch in his mind palace except its Solas#the words “egg” “regret” and “mythal” zooming by his head#the entire time I was trying to figure out if Rook was hallucinating from the power of the pure lyrium in the dagger or if it was a dream#turns out they got punted into the Fade somehow lmao#make it make sense BioWare!#Seeker-Ophelia has a good reply about how on earth this could potentially work#I would have loved if the game actually clarified how any of this works tho - you know like they did in previous entries??#it really is bbc sherlock levels of writing at times lmao#tags are from jbeefletcher - you made me cry laugh thanks :)#datv critical#datv spoilers#dragon age the veilguard#veilguard critical
