      xDDDD So you basically had something that look like a half demon which start talk with her mother by saying "i'm nonbinary"? Damn, I miss I not talk with my players as NPC when I was a game master before.
      And her mother sound very reasonable and ask good questions, propably something you should expect from well manered demon looking thing. But all fall the moment when she start to talk some crap, more I expected some "kill for Khorne and not talk some bullcrap".

      It actually means "Through struggle, we find purpose." Sten explains that in some of his hidden dialogue in Origins.
      So this interaction spits in the proverbial face of the interesting complexities of the Qunari because Weekes (the writer of Taash and the guy bastardized the Qunari in Inquisition), Busch (the trans queerosexual gendermancer that was put charge of Veilguard), and the voice actress of Taash (who not-so coincidentally identifies as non-binary) had to make this a vehicle for their collective trauma dump

      I'm actually glad you brought this up.
      Because Binary as a word was created in the 1440s. Then gained new definitions over the years, like 1970s and 1990s. Just look at the year differences between the 1440s and 1970-1990s.
      Dragon age was medieval. Words like binary probably never existed. But it rootly means 'Two of Two'
      They could have just gone with the Qun word, as spoken in the initial outburst of none acceptance. Qunari have been drilled over this and it's been seen that Tal-Vashoth still show sone respect for their upbringing. Mind you Tal-Vashoth are Undesirables in the Qunari culture. It also guess to say while they do accept members of the Qun who identify as... different? They also barely tolerate them. The Qunari live for the collective- not the individual. Tash being who she is, it's whybthey hate other cultures.
      The Qunari have also been shown to have the right responses through each game's crisis: The Blight in Origins. The Mage problem in DA2. The state of Thedas in Inquisition. Draconian. But they deal with the issue front and center.

      Fantasy has always mirrored modern-day politics, but you have to do it in a way that feels natural to that universe. Characters can't just start saying modern terminology like "non-binary" or "queer". You can just make up new words and mean the exact same thing so it feels less jarring. It's like somebody in a fantasy setting "rizz" or "eco-friendly", it just sounds weird for them to be using such recent and modern language.

    I think the mother is supposed to be that stern parent that doesn't show affection but turns out they deeply loved their kid all along, but instead I see a scene of a parent taking it calmly, asking them to explain and even trying to understand by drawing parallels to what they know (whatever the fuck an aqun-athlok is) and she lashed out like she was measuring her up against someone or finding her wanting. The child is the one, literally, telling their parent to do better, when they are the only one trying.
    Man I hope the player has a choice of saying "What the fuck, Taash? What's wrong with you?" during the scene.

    Strangely enough, its not the non-buynary thing that bothers me the most. I do lack the context from the game as I haven't played it, and I am less likely to do so each day, but I need to talk about this. Taash's mother talks a lot about Qun like she still believes in it. But under the Qun, Qunari DO NOT KNOW THEIR PARENTS. The very concept of a family unit deos not exist under the Qun. So maybe her mother left the Qun when she was pregnant, but then why does she holds so close to the tenants of this religion if she so openly defied it. So by that logic both, Taash and the mother are Taal'vashoth, so I find it extremely hard to imagine Qunari peacefully interacting with someone like that. I know that Qunari have a peaceful settlement in Rivain, but they are known to not take kindly to Qunari violating their laws, let alone leave the Qun.
    Quanri have always been to me the most interesting thing about the whole setting, so it bothers me like a pebble in my shoe.

    Iirc aqun-athlok isn't talking about "gender given at birth"
    It's about someone who's role don't match their gender according to The Qun; i.e. female soldier.
    Also iirc, (and need more context) Qunari don't know their birth parents, they are given to caretakers called Tamassran since birth
    Maybe this Shathan is that instead of actual mother
    Qunari culture doesn't acknowledge individuality, they don't have personal name, only their role/rank under the Qun
    There is no way they would care what you identified as
    Based on Qunari depiction in previous games, someone like Taash would either be 're-educated' or declared as Tal Vasoth and killed
