Website Update

Act 2 main quests are complete at last!

Once I've finished Act 3 (The Last Gambit & The Dread Wolf Rises), I'll go back to do all of the Act 2 companion quests and scenes, and then main faction quests will come after that!

Website Update!

Act 2 is updated through The Shadowed Sun!

We're on our way to Tearstone Island! Yay ♡

If the player saved Minrathous and completed the quests The Cobbled Swan Case and Out of Tune, a poster about the puppet show can be seen near the Lamplighter. If you read it, you can listen to rare bunter.

Visit Original Link

Rook: A puppet panto? Huh. Bellara: Oh! That sounds fun! And... a little creepy. Davrin: Huh. Wonder if I could find any of the craftsmen. Rook: Looking to trade carving tips? Davrin: Why not? Emmrich: How delightful! Emmrich: Though Manfred has such an unpredictable reaction to puppets. Harding: There's a bit of everything here, isn't there? Lucanis: A play filled with puppets. That's... unnerving. Taash: Hah. Isabela would love it.

The next time you return to Minrathous, this poster will no longer be there.

Website Update!

Act 2 is updated through Legacies and Legends!

I've managed to get a fair bit done because of a vacation that is soon coming to an end, so updates will be slowing down again sadly :c

[datvtranscripts]

Website Update!

I took a short break from Veilguard to get the Inquisition companions up, but I'm back at it again!!

Fire and Ice is now posted with an amount of deleted dialogue, companion directories have been reworked, and main quest navigation has been restructured.

[daitranscripts]

Website Update

Hi y'all! I've added a progress and update page to the site that will also be updated going forward - I make a lot of small updates that aren't really announcement worthy, but you'll be able to find them here!

In the meanwhile, some of the Inquisition companions have been added but are unformatted. So far, the added companions are: Blackwall, Cassandra, Cole, Dorian, Iron Bull, and Sera. Most of their directories are lacking links still.

[datvtranscripts]

question - is there any chance of using these blogs, or even of making a new blog, to keep us updated on the website's progress? i think it would help expose the website to more people and also help your current tumblr followers stay up to date on how the progress is going.

Hi there! I addressed this in my announcement post:

I will continues to check asks and post status updates here in the meanwhile, but any actual transcripts will no longer be posted here.

The Veilguard transcripts have been (more or less) functioning this way already - the most recent update was just over a week ago.

[daitranscripts]

Hi all!

So, when I started building the datranscripts website, I initially said that I would continue to update the blogs. Unfortunately, thanks to tumblr's Very Functional Website Moderation, I've just lost one of my other dragon age event blogs due to a wrongful termination (my best guess is due to an AI screened bot sweep). This is both incredibly frustrating and has raised concerns for the transcript blogs.

I started building the website due to tumblr's ongoing issues, and I hate that it's only continued to deteriorate and that my faith in the site's integrity continues to fall. As such:

Future transcript updates will be posted to the website only. Please consider the blogs archival going forward.

I will continues to check asks and post status updates here in the meanwhile, but any actual transcripts will no longer be posted here. I'll be refocusing my efforts to getting all of Inquisition up on the site as well.

In the case that something does happen to the transcript blogs, please make sure to bookmark the site, join the (read-only/contact-only) discord, or follow the project on bsky. website | discord | bluesky

Website Update!!

Currently, the website is updated with all of the companion Act 1 transcripts, and through Bloodbath/The Cobbled Swan Case in Act 2!

[datvtranscripts]

I’m not sure if I should dm you here or somewhere else but I just want to let you know that on the website for Neve’s quest, A Study of Dock Town, isn’t loading. It keeps saying Page Not Found. I’m not sure if you already know this but just in case

Thanks for the heads up! I had a typo in one of the links, it should be fixed now.

You can always contact me via asks, dm, discord, replies on posts, replies on bsky, or really however you'd like/can!

[datvtranscripts]

I don't post most small updates here, but you can follow me over on bsky for more frequent posts! My current priority is posting to the website, and while I do plan on eventually catching the blog up, the site is definitely getting updated more frequently.

Currently, main quests are at the same spot, but the companion act 1 content will be on the website much sooner than it will be here. Harding and Neve's act 1 quests and conversations are already finished on the site!

[datvtranscripts]

A quick correction that I found during another Veilguard playthrough today:

A non-elf Veil Jumper has the option to greet Inquisitor Lavellan with "Andaran Atish'an" just like an elf! The follow up line from Lavellan, however, is race dependent.

You can see the correction here!

Harding Limited Conversation

Isatunoll

Harding Masterpost Related Quest: The Singing Blade

This conversation is not available after completing Sea of Blood or The Smuggled Relic Case.

Harding: "…toldar isatunoll vedun gar valos atredum. But "valos atredum" is nothing like "isatunoll."

Rook: "Isatunoll." I remember. After you touched the dagger. "The prayer, the proclamation. Isatunoll." W-what exactly are you proclaiming?

Harding: They don't remember. No one remembers. We don't even know what we lost.

Dialogue options:

Flirt: You’re cute when you’re focused. [1]

Affable: Am I interrupting? [2]

Sarcastic: You lost me. [3]

Stoic: Start making sense. [4]

1 - Flirt: You’re cute when you’re focused. Rook: You're not hearing a word I'm saying, are you? Harding: Uh-huh. Rook: You know you're adorable, right? Harding: Sure, whatever you think is best. Rook: (Laughs) Harding: Hmm? What? What's happened? Rook: I said, "You're adorable." Harding: You're poking fun at me.

Dialogue options:

Never! [5]

A little. [6]

5 - Never! Rook: I would never poke fun. I respect you too much. Harding: Is that so? Rook: A hundred percent. So what's "isatunoll"? Scene continues. [7] 6 - A little. Rook: Maybe a little. Not that you're not adorable. Anyway. Is everything okay? Harding: Oh, yeah. There's just a lot to go through. Rook: So what's "isatunoll"? Scene continues. [7]

2 - Affable: Am I interrupting? Rook: You're busy. I shouldn't interrupt. Harding: No no, wait. Sorry. Please stay. We can talk. About the Stone, about "isatunoll." Maybe explaining it to someone else will help get my thoughts in order. Rook: So what is it? What does it mean? Scene continues. [7]

3 - Sarcastic: You lost me. Rook: Harding? Are you in there? Harding: I'm sorry, what? Rook: Uh, what does "isatunoll" actually mean? Scene continues. [7]

4 - Stoic: Start making sense. Rook: What? What did you lose again? Harding: "Isatunoll." Rook: Yes, but what is it? Scene continues. [7]

7 - Scene continues.

Dwarf Rook: Harding: When I say "isatunoll," does it mean anything to you? Does it stir anything in you? Rook: No…? Harding: And you're a dwarf. So that's interesting.

Harding: Isatunoll is an affirmation. A statement of existence. Of… of being. It means "I am here." But… no, not "I." "I" is singular. But it isn't "we," either. "We" is multiple, but also separate….

Rook: What?

Harding: Isatunoll is the eternal hymn that encompasses all time. All spaces. I am. We are. This. And that. Here. There. Now. And forever.

Dialogue options:

Affable: I like that you’re excited. [8] + Harding Approves

Sarcastic: Right. If you say so. [9]

Stoic: This isn’t helping. [10]

8 - Affable: I like that you’re excited. Rook: What's important is that you're happy. Harding: Happy? Happy's not it. Whole. Right, maybe. Scene continues. [11]

9 - Sarcastic: Right. If you say so. Rook: Okay. Whatever works for you. Harding: Words aren't enough. It's hard to put into words something you just feel. Scene continues. [11]

10 - Stoic: This isn’t helping. Rook: How does this get us anywhere? Harding: Right. I guess, it would be like a mage explaining how magic feels to someone who doesn't have it. Scene continues. [11]

11 - Scene continues.

Harding: I'm certain "isatunoll" describes how we—the dwarves—once were. But none of the books say anything about it. None of the histories are right. If we forgot something so important, what else did we forget?

Rook: I don't know.

Harding: I'm sorry. I don't expect you to have an answer. Thanks for letting me babble, by the way.

Rook: Anytime. That's what I'm here for.

+ Harding Approves

The DA Transcripts Website is Live!!!!

It's alive!

But it's rough.

You'll likely notice that most of the site is full of links that go nowhere or lead to dead-ends. I haven't had the chance to reformat much to fit the site yet, but wanted to get it live and running!

Please be patient as I continue to work out the kinks in my webdev and html skills. In the meanwhile, I've made a very small, basically read-only discord where I will continue to post updates on the site's progress and you can contact me via submission form. Please use these to send QA feedback (asks are always fine as well)! These early stages are the most critical for me to fix problems such as accessibility or ease-of-use.

What does this mean for the future of the blogs?

They'll still be here, and I'll still update them! I'll still respond to asks and keep an eye on comments/replies, but the formatting will no longer be optimized for tumblr's layout, as it would be a lot of work to make both (and formatting is what has always taken the longest). I'll keep tumblr in the loop on site updates as well, and if you don't like discord, you can follow the DA Transcript bluesky for more frequent news!

Thank you all for your support!!!

[daitranscripts]

Things are moving a bit smoother with the site now! Links should be a bit less broken, but the formatting is still a lot of work!

So far, Inquisiton is posted up to Champions of the Just, and Veilguard is almost caught up with the datv blog and posted to the end of Act 1.

As always, feel free to ask questions and let me know if you spot any mistakes!!

[datvtranscripts]

Hi all!

Act 1 quests through Shades of the Blight are up on the website!

While I was fixing up my typos and errors, I realized that a lot of the dialogue I thought was deleted in Shades of the Blight is specifically for a default DAI worldstate with no changes made. (If you even edit the Inquisitor's name and leave all choices/race/romance/appearance the same, it is considered a custom worldstate.)

You can see the live changes on the website here! I'll be fixing it here on tumblr soon, but I have a few other responsibilities I need to catch up on first.

There is still one line that might be deleted that I'm stumped on though:

Inquisitor: If Solas is really trapped, and really helping, then perhaps this is just a trinket, or a bit of lore. But if not, then hopefully this gives you something. Some clue that helps you trip up his plan.

There are already three different lines from the Inquisitor depending on if you vowed to save or stop Solas, with a third for the romance that plays regardless of this choice (and is the default), so I'm not sure what else that leaves.

If you happen to have seen this dialogue, please let me know!

[datvtranscripts]

Hi! I wanted to ask if you happen to have the transcript of the scene where Harding expresses that she doesn’t believe Solas can be saved? It’s the scene that comes after the decision where Harding should honor the Titans anger or stay true to who she is.

Thank you!

Here you go!
