Gosh, Varric is the best, the top of the pops of all the Dragon Age games, hands down. ( And I say this as a person who loves all the characters!)
This evening, I worked on this other small project ( aka another present for a friend ) 😁 I have yet to decide if I like these lights mmmm 🤔
I'll have to try more options...

The fact that Cassandra reads Swords and Shields out loud to Cole is so important to me.

purple hawke who, at malcolm's death, lost not only a father, a mentor, the single most stable and safe point in their world up until this moment. but also the only person in their life who would consistently, gleefully 'yes, and — ' them. the loss, in one fell swoop, of both a beloved parent and your sole willing — no, not only willing, enthusiastic — improv partner. truly, the most unkindest cut of all that the maker could have seen fit to deal. (there's always so much less laughter in the house, after malcolm's gone.)
and then after all the horrors of the blight and trying to make a new life in the shithole turned shithome of kirkwall....... they meet varric. and something that's been slumbering deep within their soul dries a tear of relief and joy and whispers 'oh we are so back'. and they are so right

There's a post going around saying that the Veilgaurd team is so nice to eachother because it's a story about professionals. I need the author locked in a room with Vivienne, Cassandra, Leliana, and Josephine so they can look them in the eye and say they're not professionals to their faces. For science.

I think the reason why it's Varric talking to Solas is because of this:
There are worldstates in which the Inquisitor ONLY recruited the 3 companions that you are FORCED to have from the beginning: Solas, Varric and Cassandra. So in those worldstates, where the Inquisitor didn't make ANY other friends, the only people that you can say are Solas' friends are Varric and Cassandra. Those are his two canonical friends that we know that he always has in every world. And out of those two characters, I don't think that Cassandra would have the gentle approach that would highlight Solas' reasonableness.
We actually already saw Solas talking to an Inquisition acquaintance (Charter) in Tevinter Nights, with the same kind of relationship that he has with Harding, a more professional one. I don't think that kind of relationship would help here.
So, by process of elimination, and because I think they're setting Varric up for a storyline, that leaves Varric. And I think it works well, with all these limitations.
Why not the Inquisitor? I would have jumped for joy at that, and it's exactly why the game would have worked if the Inquisitor was still the main character. But I don't think the Inquisitor works this early if we're supposed to be following Rook, it might have been confusing and distracting. I think that the Inquisitor will have a chance to talk to him later. And besides, we already GOT a scene of the Inquisitor trying to talk Solas down. That was Trespasser. So, though I would have loved for Solas to talk to the Inquisitor, we really have already experienced that. So, given all of that, I think that Varric is a nice choice to talk to him, and it's actually interesting for Varric too, given Varric's history with friends at the edge of desperation.
Like, not to say you have to feel any sort of way about it, or like it, or whatever, I just can see a lot of constraints to this, and I think it was handled pretty well
**Edited to add - oh wait, iirc I think that Dorian and cole are also companions that you have to at least meet, if not keep? if I'm remembering right? But the points still stand, it could have been Dorian but I think they're setting Varric up for something

Harding mourning companions fallen in the final battle
Other companions: Bellara, Davrin, Emmrich, Neve, Taash, the rest TBA later
Companion romances: Harding x Taash, Neve x Lucanis
Note: companions will normally comment on only one death, or will have one short comment covering multiple companion deaths. The track below is my attempt at splicing all individual companion lines together.
General
After Varric died, I promised myself I wouldn't let anyone else fall on my watch. Then Davrin was lost, and now… It just feels like I'm failing, over and over. How many more friends do I have to say goodbye to? How do you cling to hope?
Emmrich
Emmrich's gone. All of his experience and power… I'm going to miss our chats. He… he gave the warmest hugs. I hope he knew how much I treasured his friendship. How much I learned from him. [If Rook romanced Emmrich, and he died during the mission] Emmrich was one of the kindest souls I ever met. And he loved you so much. Rook… I'm so sorry.
Taash
Taash is gone, too. I wish I'd spent more time with them. Said how grateful I am to have met them. [If Rook romanced Taash, and they died during the mission] Rook, I'm sorry about Taash. You two looked so happy together. I can't imagine the pain…
Neve
Neve's gone. I can't believe Neve's gone. She deserved better. She tried so hard… She fought so hard for Minrathous, and what did she get for it? I should've told her how much her friendship meant to me. [If Rook romanced Neve, and she died during the mission] Rook… I'm so sorry. Losing Neve… I can't imagine the pain… [If Neve and Lucanis romanced each other, and she died during the mission] I hope Lucanis is okay. I think Neve made him happier than he's been in a long time.
General
I see the losses are hitting you, too. Seeing you in pain… is difficult. We have to keep hoping, don't we? Somehow.

do you think the inquisitor saw rook and just felt like a giant burden lifting off their shoulders because finally, finally there’s someone besides them who’s doing what has to be done to step up and save the world
like obviously I’m not discrediting Hawke and the HoF here but their time is done and passed, by the time we reach veilguard the inquisitor has been The Hero for ten years now. You know every time there was trouble the world was looking to Them. The Herald of Andraste. The world wouldn’t end as long as they were there because they’ve always saved it and they will this time too.
For ten years the inquisitor couldn’t stop, couldn’t rest, couldn’t walk away. Because who was going to save the world if not them? No one, that’s who.
They’ve been doing what they had to because there was no one else to do it since the moment they got that mark on their hand and that never stopped.
And now here comes rook, a natural leader who’s brought together and incredibly competent team and they seem like a chaotic little shit but they’ve got a great head on their shoulders and they’re willing and they’re eager and they get the job done.
And they were chosen by Varric.
And maybe they think back to how Varric got them an estate in Kirkwall and made them a noble and made sure they had a place to go when the dust settled, how he always made sure they were taken care of and had what they needed. Even if they could never go back to who they were before the inquisition they would always have a home because their friend made sure of it.
And now it’s like varric has given them one final gift: someone to take their place. So they finally lay down the mantle. They can finally rest.

very funny for rye 'the moment I make one (1) mistake I will be dropped like a hot potato by anything I care about and it'll be completely my own fault' ingellvar to have two of his very closest people in adult life be varric tethras and lucanis dellamorte. two people whose most uniting 🤝 quality is 'I have never willingly let go of a single thing in my whole entire life even when that would have made everything so much easier. and I certainly don't mean to start now'. get cherished beyond reason or sanity or even the veil of death idiot one day it's going to sink in I'm sure
