I've finished Trespasser and it was delightful and also I need to lie on the floor and think for an indeterminate amount of time and definitely draw about it so... sorry my obnoxiousness will continue. DATV up next, but very attached to the DAI crew. Thanks for making me play it!

I'm playing The Descent first because after so much elf and human stuff, I really want to learn more about the dwarves. Also I probably need to know more about the blight and darkspawn since missing the first two games. While I'm doing that, I'm deciding how much I want to

Like that wasn't the explanation he promised, and then he left, but from the tone in her voice when she says "There's more, isn't there?" and his response "It was not supposed to happen this way," she knows she's not getting an answer from him then.

so don't know anything about Flemeth, but Morrigan seemed horrified to now be forever tied to the will of her mother/Mythal/sorta Mythal?). Berylin would have been pretty amazed she was meeting a version of Mythal, though she's very disoriented with who and what the gods of

Learning about (and meeting) the last Inquisitor Ameridan was a super interesting quest. I think it would be so for most players, but since Berylin is an elven mage Inquisitor it was especially impactful. As I was learning more about him and his companions, I looked at my
