This post has a purpose to place the miscellaneous details and objects found in the area. There is no much to say about them, this is more for archive purposes.
We find the Banner of Ferelden, with a mabari, of course. Following a style that remind us the art series that shows Andraste’s life
[This is part of the series “Playing DA like an archaeologist”]
Inside of a random Ferelden house. These items are pretty much reused in many contexts.
The ferelden mabari torches which features two mabaris at the sides of a shield with two crowns; the symbol of the royal family of Ferelden: the Theirins. Probably this is an old version since the current symbol of the Theirins is:
The torches shows the animals looking at opposite sides, and the shield is currently bigger.
The mercenary symbol
In the Lady Shayna’s valley, we find some red lyrium, and in front of it, a sacrificial table of black wolves in a curious style. Since they are metallic, it’s fair to suspect them as tevinter-made, but we saw these wolves/mabaris in other Ferelden places made out of wood. They certainly are more spiky than the regular Fereldan style but I keep consider them as Ferelden. This table appears in Crestwood with skulls on it. It’s not an item I’ve see too frequent in game.
The Crossroad has a statue of Tyrdda, the legendary alamarri mage-warrior founder of the Avvar, in the middle of it,
There are also astrariums in the region. These objects are a Tevinter invention that once they are completed, they point out to a secret Tevinter room with special Tevinter devices and loot. See more in the post of Astrariums.
Lornan’s exile is where the rebel mages are gathering in Hinterlands. The stronghold is ansdrastian in most details. Its courtyard has a typical statue of the warrior-andraste.
The place is filled with Maferath’s statues too.
And at the very bottom of the fortress, there is a breach over five statues of the Dwarf with long limbs which are surrounding a tree. Maybe this place had a different significance back in the time of the Alamarri.
Close to Lornan’s exile we find the Grand Forest Villa, another fortress, more modern.
This is the same statue we find in the Crossroads, depicting Tyrdda.
Here, Serna’s tomb, at the heights of the hills of the Hinterlands, showing a statue of a dragon shaped Mythal destroyed.
