I will say. Yes, as a grey warden truther, I'm very satisfied with how they were portrayed in game. I think there was a balance of these are the guys who've saved the world 5 times show some goddamn respect and they're a shady order who has too many secrets and who will do the worst things for the sake of the greater good (a end justify the means thing)

however. why does NO ONE mention that its very much established at the end of Inquisition AND trespasser that the order is going through, lowkey, a civil war. At the very least, there's a schism about what the order is going to do in the future, with the northern and southern grey wardens having different ideas.

I really wish they would have adressed this because I need to know what happened. Like Blackwall, if he's a warden, will say there's been a lot of discussions at Weisshaupt. Did they ever come to an agreement? Did the southern grey wardens break away from the order and are acting of their own accord (kinda like the chantry v. imperial chantry)?

I have to know

#my personal HC is that now the southern and northern grey wardens are like two different factions in a way #while they still have the same purpose of fighting the blight #they do it in different ways #as in much like how its established in inquisition #the southern grey wardens still fight darkspawn but alsso fighr other things #god how is it that they had said it? it was like it was time for the order to come out of the shadows and join the rest of the world #like maybe they fight all sorts of monsters now too not just darkspawn #and maybe they changed their minds a bit about the whole 'grey wardens can't be involved in politics' thing a bit #(especially in world states where ferelden is ruled by either one or two grey wardens)#many thoughts about the grey warden schism #ooo maybe the southern ones established their own fortress #bc like it was becoming HARD to rely on weisshaupt for shit #like take dao for example #they had to do everything with only 2 GW bc weisshaupt was at the end of the world from ferelden #so it would take months #if they had something more localized #in the event of another blight they would be more prepared
