“Fenris! We’re finally reunited!”

“It would have happened sooner if someone gave clear directions to this place.”

“Eh? But I wrote it out in my last letter: Let’s meet at A Non-Descript Tavern on the road to Ostwick!”

“Hawke.”

Markus is having nightmares from the Calling

[shoutydwarf]

Fact is oghren loved branka in the way y’all can only put in fanfic & wattpad kidnapped by one direction stories. Oghren loved his paragon so much that he drove his entire house into the dust just for a CHANCE to fight for her. 2 entire years he spent banging on the doors of the assembly/palace demanding she not be abandoned. Of course it drove him to drinking and raging and drinking some more, he was taught that paragons are living GODS (pretty much) and was contending with the cruel, shattering reality that it’s been reduced to just face and politics. And there’s a lot to unpack about political corruption there but there is also a note to be made about how far into the abyss the darkspawn have pushed his proud people into over generations upon generations. He isn’t just mourning branka he is mourning honor and culture and religion. His OWN but also his PEOPLE’S. You’re not allowed to talk to him about it though uhh fart joke - here, hold that

Daybreak

[stonesense]

dao as a story about the warden learning to want to live, a warden who tried to reject duncan’s recruitment even if it was their only chance at survival ending up doing the dark ritual because they’ve learned to want to live, will simply never miss

[stonesense]

i love how absurdly well it ties into all of the companions like alistair surviving all this with you after thinking he should have died with duncan at ostagar. morrigan and the warden having something to learn from each other in “survival is all that matters” vs. “some things are worth dying for”. leliana’s miracle being the mundane truth that there is ordinary beauty even in darkness. zevran who after rinna is on this journey with you. wynne who was wrong the love wasn’t a distraction from your duty it was what made you want to live victorious. sten who if he had not been given his purpose and a chance to recover his honour by you would have stayed to die in lothering. oghren destroying himself waiting for branka and only becoming someone on the surface. shale’s hesitant exploration of what it means to be alive in a more temporary body. loghain if recruited surviving what he saw only as an extension of his death sentence and making something of it, saving the land he wanted to save. even the dog who is alive because you were there to save it and when it was injured and hurting let you muzzle it because it wanted to live. showstopping narrative always new always brilliant

[sha-brytols]

underrated narrative element of dragon age i absolutely adore is how the primary antagonists are meant to be foils of your character in the way that it almost seems like the story is asking you "will you become them? was loghain right about the ends justifying the means, no matter how brutal or bloody? was Meredith right about magic corrupting the souls of those you love?" even the notoriously shitty antagonists like corypheus mirror the inquisitor in that he is a mortal who was thrust into a position of unimaginable power and now faces the existential question of if divinity is truly real or is the will of a man powerful enough to move the heavens. do you guys see what i'm throwing down. it's so dark in here.
