    I always believed that Flemeth's words of advice were foretelling of the mage/templar war, but after playing DA:i and Trespasser, I think she was actually laying down some foreshadowing for the Veil coming down... and then everyone becomes a mage (or "dragon").

      To me it also sounds like she's talking about the veil coming down... and if that's the case, she apparentaly doesn't see that as such a bad thing. Even going so far as to tell Hawk to 'leap'. Or pehaps she's just working her own angle here. But then again, she gives up her power to Solas willingly... uuh so many questions!!! I hope the answers won't be disappointing.

    The quest for Hawke going into the Fade is Literally called" Here Lies The Abyss" and Flemth says "The world fears the inevitable plummet into the Abyss, watch for that moment and when it comes don't be afraid to leap". This is a set up for Hawke to come back.

    I wonder if the ??? Chapter is actually a representation of Varric’s first dream. As a dwarf he cannot dream normally, but perhaps being thrown into the fade unlocks some of his desires, thus forming the book to let them take physical form in the fade.
    I do like the thought of Hawke finally finding peace though

  • @cbcat747

    I love the champion, I love the fact that unlike origins and inquisition where you have a character you can completely customise and is open to interpretation to the player (which I like don’t get me wrong), but as Hawke you are put into this already fleshed out character that you just add to, and I love it. It feels so whole, so complete and genuine + the family features in DA2 are my favourite thing in the dragon age series, and part of the reason DA2 is probably my favourite.

    "The world fears the inevitable plummet into the abyss. Watch for that moment, and when it comes, do not hesitate to leap." - Flemeth
    Then the name of the mission where you can leave Hawke behind is called "Here Lies the Abyss." I love my Hawke, but when I noticed that I felt it was the right thing to do. Without a badass death scene, though, I'm not believing one way or another because it felt unfinished. Jump into the abyss to do what, sacrifice yourself? Where's the flying?
    Also, Quizzy declaring Hawke dead two seconds after stepping out of the Fade rubbed me the wrong way. What did they see that I didn't? And aren't Solas and Cole, maybe even Morrigan, Fade-sensitive enough to help locate them? ASK THEM, QUIZZY.
    Also also, Cole says something about a hawk with a broken wing when you talk to him at Skyhold afterward. It gave me chills. And as for the ??? chapters, I feel like Hawke wrote that for Varric to tell him he/she was at peace... maybe as they were dying, or when they realized they'd be stuck forever? Ack.. D,:

      1. Yup, sure there are. The Fallow Mire was devastated by a prague before the undead came and Denerim's alienage suffers outbursts of prague in dire times.
      2. It's true. I thing they should find a new hobby, maybe knitting.
      3. I don't know, that is practically the only part of the game where a character with strong sentimental value - unless you choose Stroud, I guess - dies. Or supposedly dies, I like to headcanon that my Hawk slits her wrist, say "geez, finally I can stop pretending be a do-gooder for those Chantry lick-booters" and nails the weakened demon. Only to be trapped in the Fade afterwards, oh crap. But I digress, my point is that even if it breaks my hearth I like the fact that you actually need to choose someone to stay behind and live with the consequences.

    • @LeonGun8
      @LeonGun8 6 лет назад +3

      They never outright show you he dies. He was still fighting when you leave. All you did was close the link to the Fade and disconnect the Nightmare Demon's influence. Considering they've resurrected characters that REALLY died (Leliana), bringing back a character whose status is actually "unknown" is much more simpler. Especially since Hawke has the biggest plot armor in the series so far, especially since he has no supernatural powers like the Warden or the Inquisitor.
      Also,the undead in Fallow Mire are a direct result of a mistake treating a plague. This mistake resulted in most of the village population dying.

    • @Netrefix
      @Netrefix 6 лет назад +3

      The Dragon Age Keep does not literaly states that they died either. There is just something about bying more time for Inquisitor and party to escape. Regardless of whoever was left in the Fade. So it's not much, but there is still hope. And maybe not just for Hawke.

    Fighting templars, mages and even qunari is one thing, but now a lovecraftian fear demon from the fade ON the fade...
    I think that whoever was left there was way over their heads and fell while buying the others time.
    Maybe during DA4's mandatory fade section we will see the aftermath of the battle, like the nightmare dead and Hawke/Warden sitting on the floor leaning on a rock bloody and beaten (likely dead) and a spirit tells you what happened there letting you get Hawke/Warden's last thoughts, like goodbyes to their families, friends, lovers and so on. Could be a very emotional moment, especially if some of the DA2 cast returns, like a romanced Merrill or Fenris.

    My headcanon for Hawke goes so off course. I've played the games too many times to think of either sibling dying and considering how powerful my Mary Sued Mage Hawke is, Varric's version is what actually happened. After the end she has Kirkwall abandoned stating it's unholy (she's devout) as it was the place where the Magisters crossed over, and the populace moved to an abandoned city she'd discovered years ago (during her mercenary time) and had been slowly rebuilding with her fortune. She names it Dragonholme and herself the Archduchess.

    **SPOILERS CONTAINED HEREAFTER**
    YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED>>>
    Okay, I have a thought about the person your Inquisitor leaves in the Fade in DAI, and this came to mind after watching this Champion video and then your video on the tranquil, in which you talked about the two known ways mages can be made tranquil being the chantry brand or killing them (their spirit, I'm guessing?) in the Fade while they're asleep in the real world (aka dreaming). Now, in that other video when you said the Avvar referred to the skulls that are used for oculara being from those who've been dream-slain, it made me wonder if they weren't specifically referring to those who are killed like Hawke can kill Feynriel in DA2 (as opposed to pressing into someone's forehead with a nasty brand).
    Which leads me to whomever you leave in the Fade to fight the Nightmare. The whole point of that was for the left-behind person to give the rest of the group enough time to escape through the rift, which the Inquisitor then closed as soon as they emerged, leaving either Hawke or the Warden essentially trapped. People seem to assume they perished, but why would they? A demon is a spirit. The spirit shows itself and its little minions as per your personal greatest fear (some in our group saw spiders, but not everyone did), but that's not what it really is...it's a spirit, period.
    Now, if the Warden or Hawke you leave behind is a mage, the question arises: can a demon possess them when normally, a demon possesses a person by making an agreement with them while they're dreaming in the Fade, not while they're physically in there. Remember in DAO when you (if you're a mage Warden) or Wynne or Morrigan enter the Fade to slay the demon possessing Connor? The demon takes Connor's form at first because Connor's spirit is being held in the Fade by the demon. Then when you call it on its B.S., it returns to its demon look, and you have to "slay" it...yet the real demon is at the end "mini boss battle" in the Fade, where it shows that it can make copies of itself throughout your fight with it. "The possession is not physical-the demon is still in the Fade, but so is the mage's spirit, and the demon is able to control the body through that captive spirit like a puppet." (dragonage.fandom.com/wiki/Abomination)
    So according to what we've seen: a real physical person in the Fade can kill demons, a dreaming person in the Fade can kill demons, if demons enter the real world in their raw form they can be slain and if demons (or spirits) enter a person in the real world, they can only be gotten rid of if their host dies (because that traps their captive spirit in the Fade) OR if that demon is killed *in the Fade* as Connor's was, because then the demon can no longer hold the spirit of their possessed mage captive. The exception to this scenario is with Justice and Anders since Justice was completely thrown OUT of the Fade into a corpse (possession) and thus was body-hopping kinda like archdemons, but I digress.
    Remember - Dorian tells us in DAI that he met a desire demon in the Fade, they sat around in luxury eating grapes and talking and then it tried to possess him. Obviously, it did not, because Dorian resisted/refused. The point with ALL of this is that a demon within the Fade cannot actually DO anything to you under normal dreaming circumstances unless you invite them to. They can, however, if given host bodies (e.g. inhabiting a mage's body like Justice ends up doing) hurt other people because they now have a physical base of operating in the real world. But the Nightmare is still just a spirit in the Fade. It doesn't have a body any more real than a dreaming mage does.
    Demons and spirits in their spirit form must be invited to act upon you or enter you, as Anders invited Justice. If Anders had refused, Justice could NOT have entered him. If Hawke/Warden does not give the Nightmare permission to kill them, and their spirit is NOT separated from their body since they're in the Fade physically, how could the demon, a spirit, kill them?

    Probably pointless to make this comment on a 4 year old video when there may well be a correction later, but I do not think that the first of Revka's children can be the Warden Mage. From the Codex entry "The Amell Family" Lady Amelie de Montfort recounted that Revka's child being taken away was the first of the problems for the family. Given that we know Leandra took off in 9:05 Dragon, and most children seem to manifest their magic in the 7-10 age range (thought Jowan and Merrill were younger), placing Firstborn at just 7 would have them be 32 at the beginning of Dragon Age Origins. That would be much, much too old for them to be just taking their Harrowing. While the wiki links "the child" to the Mage Origin, the math doesn't work at all. It seems more likely that Warden Amell escaped with their siblings and father to Ferelden and was later discovered and taken to the Ferelden Circle. The codex from Amelie also does say "The Circle", which as someone living in Kirkwall would have implied the Kirkwall Circle. If Warden Amell was taking their Harrowing around the 17-20 range, then at most they would have to be born in 9:10 Dragon and wouldn't be discovered as a mage until 9:17 Dragon or thereabouts.
    As for the Meredith point, I think you're right to shift the arrest to an earlier point. Realistically, look who her Knight Captain is; Cullen. Cullen was 19 in Origins (which explains so, so much), and then 20 in DA2 after the year of servitude to get into the City. If Meredith was similarly 20 when she was Knight Captain... which would have to have been back in what? If this whole Threnhold thing had to actually happen in say 9:04 Dragon, and she was Knight Captain 7 years before that then she'd be KC at 8:97 Blessed (if we are using 00 years), and then 8:77 birth. So, 60 in 9:37 Dragon? Hmmmm.... Maybe there is a reason they don't give us any of these people's actual birthdays. They don't do dates well. Too many dates. Too many calendars.

    17:17 The Fade in Dragon Age: Inquisition was incredibly underwhelming... Mages draw their power from the Fade. So if they are in TF in the flesh they’re magic should theoretically be more powerful than ever!
    I love that line of dialogue that Flemeth speaks to Hawke in Dragon 🐉 Age 2.
    Except the part where she says to him that he could never become a dragon. Hawke should have been able to clapback. “I’ll be the judge of that, crone. Not you...”
    Magee should be able to fly if they are in TF in the flesh. And I still don’t understand why BioWare believed that Hawke would just follow the command of the Inquisitor to sacrifice himself to begin with.
    My Hawke would have told the Inquisitor to go feck himself! If anyone should have stayed behind. It’s the jackass who brought them in the Fade to begin with.
    And Hawke would have taken over the Inquisition from that point on in the story.

    Never did like Dragon 2... None of the major decisions properly sank in to the character's path as most were forced into a condensed resolution making any heroic or evil actions pointless. Trailer and setup stated about changing fate but I didn't expect it to be as pointless as the recycled cave missions of kirkwall
    Besides the development quality between mass effect 2, none of the side characters actually synced in properly as a party or the story unless a plot twist is pulled from the game's arse.

    I always supposed that Straud was tve one who should be left in the Fade - "canonically" speaking.
    Alistair is supposed by Bioware to be King (as he is in comics and other materials) and Hawke has a huge sentimental support from the players (many people will leave Alistair in the Fade to save Hawke).
    And Straud is this noname character who is kind of involved and kind of not - the perfect candidate.

    • @yang6642
      @yang6642 3 года назад

      Plus the animation of Hawke or the warden attacking the demon just isn’t designed for a mage. I know that Hawke can be a warrior or rogue but BioWare’s default world state has them as a mage.

    • @TatySwan
      @TatySwan 3 года назад +1

      @@yang6642 yep, it always makes me giggle when I watch some playthrough and see this scene with Hawke slamming the spider with the staff - like maybe do some magic, no? (Not to say that I've always wondered why not just create some badass light spell, blind the spider and run away together, yeeep 😅)
      I'm pretty sure that Biowares have a default world state scenario which they use as a skeleton to the game. If one looks through all comics, books and lore it becomes pretty obvious.
      Hawke is definitely a mage in this default state - even just because in DA2 the whole plot makes a lot more sense to a mage protagonist while warriors and rogues look either suspiciously too informed about magic or too distant from the concept till it starts to be strange why they even bother about the whole problem)
