The sheer sadness and regret in 1:12 to 1:30 is heartbreaking. The Elves lost their entire culture, and you really feel the weight of their sorrow in this piece of soundtrack.
For me, the sadness is not of elves loosing their culture. Their "culture" after all was one of enslavement and brutal overlords much like ancient Tevinter and not much current unlike Orlais (at least for the elves). Spoilers ahead I've played my first and main inqusition character as a female dalish mage. One that always thought about honoring their old gods and returning to the old ways (an elfy elf as Sera would say) only to find her image of the good old times crumbling as she went. And she also romanced Solas btw... :D For me the sadness is of Solas, Abelas, Fellassan, Arial (my inquisitor) as they see the peple they care about get enslaved whether in the past or in the present. Edit: The way I phrase it can hardly express all the feelings of this song though. It's much more than that, it's hard to put into words...
That part is actually also the main theme in 'Eluvian Crossroads' and it plays during the scene Morrigan tells you about the Eluvians for the first time.
@@ookami-chan3328 true they were enslaved but if you go by what was being said that was just kind of the final nail in the coffin. They were warring against themselves & that started their decline in power. Their "empire" fractured & shattered like glass. Until now they're not even a shadow of their former selves. What little they have left in history & power is distorted as well
The Dragon Age series has to be one of my favourites, if not the best. It is just such an immersive world and the soundtracks to go with it are amazing.
Ohh boy... The first part of this song was extremely emotional for me for some odd reason in the Emerald Graves. Knowing that many were slaughtered there, and then coming by on horse back and suddenly it creeping in when the adventure was silent. Suddenly hearing this song hauntingly ringing through your ears and just.. Simply disappearing was heart breaking. THIS SONG!! Then it creeps back with Morrigans scene with the eluvian, and also Mythals temple, it was like a good warning that shit was going to get real. The whole damn 6 minutes are just heart wrenching.
The game story wasn't too bad. But they truly went all out on the music for this game. Especially for this one. You truly feel the tragedy of both a lost culture & flemeth's own tragic past. You truly do feel the weight of sorrow and regret. But it's such a beautiful piece of music.
One of my favorite tracks. My favorite moment in the game so far (200 hours in and I'm still experiencing so much new stuff) is when I fought a dragon in the exalted plains and this track played. That fight was full of action, the environment there was awesome, and the fact this track played in stead of some generic 'epic' combat theme was so awesome. It was the epitome of a fight in a fantasy world, fighting a huge dragon with this theme. The music really made it one of the best battles ever.
Gotta agree with you there. After figuring out the puzzle for a while I was kind of expecting to just find some random rifts and be done with the area. However when the Dragon landed right in front of me this music turned a moment of shock into the most beautiful moment in the game. Somehow, more than any loud and epic score this slow, beatiful melody made me feel like this would be my characters hardest fight yet. But at the same time it kept me going eventhough I had almost no potions when the fight started. Now it has become kind of a ritual for me. Every playthrough I get to level 15 and then go meet my favourite dragon xD
Never have I been filled with intense emotions such as beauty, mystery, intrigue, magic, and fantasy more than with this soundtrack. Whenever I think about going on an adventure exploring a vast, deep, and beautiful fantasy world where I know wonderful interesting secrets are just beyond the horizon I think of this song. I just want to go running in a open green field with the sun bright and shining in the sky or explore an abandoned castle in broad daylight when I hear this music. It perfectly sets the atmosphere for this grand adventure of discovery and wonder. It embodies fantasy to me.
"This is where the Elves called to her, spoke to her. Then one day she disappeared and they had no one to speak to..." - Imagine the Elves throughout the generations left that remembered this place and cried out only for her to never respond.
When you fight the Greater Mistral in the Emerald Graves, you hear a similar but not identical song to this one. I would love to get my hands on that track. I still love this track though.
I finally found it. I have been wonering about the music I heard in the Emerald Graves but couldn't find it. But when I played What Pride Has Wrought, I heard it again. and then I thouht it was something with that quest and it led me to this track. So now I can finally enjoy it ^^
Also wonderful music for the situation of the very last visit to an elven ruin you undertake in the game. I was sooo relieved for not listening to Morrigan when Mythal finally revealed herself. No one deserves that to happen to them. Especially not a mother with a non-Old God child.
dude when I Realized this was one of the dragon songs but an emotional version, the feels. ea pissed on the dragon age franchise from so many angles, but music wasn't one of them. glad they didn't go the route everyone else is seemingly going of choosing trendy pop songs.
idk how these motherfuckers do it. but thank god for a team like bioware lol. beautiful works of art every single time. amazing games with beautiful audio/ orchestra/ whatever the fuck you want to call it. amazing music. love this shit! bioware is my favorite video game dev :) and bethesda is close but not THAT good.
Justice782 Their narrative has improved slightly in the last decade, the game play however has devolved. And comparing a crap-factory like Bethesda with Bioware? Really?
Completely agree. Inquisition had far too much farming and okay-ish combat, but it has deffinately been dumbed down from previous games. Origins is a much superior game in most respects and Baldurs Gate 2, well, nothing comes close to that game in terms of story and characters. What I found particularly annoying was the restriction to having only 8 spells or combat moves you can have at any one time-why? just ridiculous. Cut scenes and interaction between your main character and the 3 others you took in the various enviroments was virtually none existent,detracting you from being really involved in the story line greatly. Such a shame really. Witcher 3 in comparision was vastly superior and I hope Bioware have taken note of this so we can enjoy a much better game in Dragon Age 4. A few descent cut scenes and great music do not make a great game.
I so love this part of the game even though it's so sad There's one Trailer to Inquisition, where Morrigan speaks - and in the background is this sad song Sounds like 'vir suledin abelas' i think I'm looking for that song would love to hear it without Morrigan speaking in between
Tevinter is a very very very diminished version el the elves from Solas time, I mean they had many virtues and marvels like Tevinter, but their pride and arrogance led them to a world wide war with themselves, being slaves to fake gods and such, magisters are only a glimpse of a VERY diminutive version of what a Elvhen God could be.
Yeah, Tevinter based their whole society on what little was left of Elvhenan after Solas raised the Veil. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the fourth game revealed that Minrathous is actually just Arlathan given a Tevinter name, with the truth covered up all this time.
I've been trying to figure out what song the kissing scenes have on them. From what I can tell its only piano, I thought it was the beginning of this song but was mistaken. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Indeed. From what Solas told us, their civilization was one of countless marvels, not just enslavement and war.
That part is actually also the main theme in 'Eluvian Crossroads' and it plays during the scene Morrigan tells you about the Eluvians for the first time.
Every time I hear one of the disgusting subhumans whine, I am determined to increase their sorrow as much as possible. Death to all xenos.

The mixture of hope, desperation, beauty, mystery, and danger in this piece...so incredible.
I could listen to the first 10 seconds over and over for 14 years.
Umaibo same
I live for when the string sound goes down an octave at 2:17. So beautiful.
Skitlez I completely agree. I find myself anticipating it every time I listen to this.
+TheSourpatch01 Yes! Anytime I hear it at the Storm Coast, I stop what I'm doing so I can listen and wait for that particular part.
same

yeah, sooo true! I couldn't say it differently, absolutely right!
I can't help but think of Solas and Lavellan when listening to this 💔
Me too.
Same! I miss Solas...T_T

You truly feel the tragedy of both a lost culture & flemeth's own tragic past.
You truly do feel the weight of sorrow and regret.
But it's such a beautiful piece of music.
I'm really in love with Trevor Morris' work on inquisition... I hope he comes back for DA4

The Temple of Mythal!!!
I love this track.

That moment when Solas removes Lavellan's vallaslin...
ConnivingEagle i was thinking that too, i used to love this song, now it fills me with sadness :/
+ConnivingEagle Or doesn't remove it. It's a beautiful, heartbreaking scene either way.
My Lavellan's let her vallaslin stay even as she wept T_T
Chills
All hell breaks loose
This music in itself expresses perfectly Abelas' name - "Sorrow"
My favourite part, made even better by this lovely music.
My favorite part of the main story.:,^] I love the dragon age pantheon of gods & lore.
(JAWS OF HAKKON SPOILERS)
this song playing on the island while you listen to the spirit tell you about telana and ameridan ruined me
This song also plays when you reach the heart of the Titan in The Descent.
When you fight the Greater Mistral in the Emerald Graves, you hear a similar but not identical song to this one. I would love to get my hands on that track.
I still love this track though.
It's a re-arranged version of the track "The Lost Temple", which can be found in the original soundtrack of the game.
And... I think I found it
ruclips.net/video/_58jwfR4Ktg/видео.html
Yeah, It's just a same that the re-arranged version isn't included in a combat soundtrack.
I finally found it. I have been wonering about the music I heard in the Emerald Graves but couldn't find it. But when I played What Pride Has Wrought, I heard it again. and then I thouht it was something with that quest and it led me to this track. So now I can finally enjoy it ^^
even when you went into Mythal's temple. Without words, it tells a story about her.
I'd love to see a live version of this... Or even just an orchestra video
I've been looking for this one everywhere, YES!!
Using the Frosty Editor, I read that Flemeth's idea was never to hurt Morrigan, but to pierce Urthemiel's soul. I imagine it is for her to face Solas.
Pretty sure this is my favorite track from the game...
Fits Mythal so well. Beginning is revitalizing
egretful\pure\ then turns vengeful\dangerous\dark.
This soundtrack completes the game, Good on yah Trevor Morris!
Also wonderful music for the situation of the very last visit to an elven ruin you undertake in the game.
I was sooo relieved for not listening to Morrigan when Mythal finally revealed herself. No one deserves that to happen to them. Especially not a mother with a non-Old God child.
Now imagine guys how many of such places youll see in Dragon age 4! :D
dude when I Realized this was one of the dragon songs but an emotional version, the feels. ea pissed on the dragon age franchise from so many angles, but music wasn't one of them. glad they didn't go the route everyone else is seemingly going of choosing trendy pop songs.
Beautiful song
2:20 oh god...
Abuyin ibn Djadir my pussy is quaking
You noticed too, huh?
I wish the last part of the track that only plays when you're in the core of the temple was longer or a track on it's own.
just finshed the game gonna by the dlcs soon man great game really powerful stuff
idk how these motherfuckers do it. but thank god for a team like bioware lol. beautiful works of art every single time. amazing games with beautiful audio/ orchestra/ whatever the fuck you want to call it. amazing music. love this shit! bioware is my favorite video game dev :) and bethesda is close but not THAT good.

From 3:50 to about 5:00 I get huge Game of Thrones/Daenerys vibes from this track. Wonder if anyone else does.
a big Part of my heart
I so love this part of the game
even though it's so sad
There's one Trailer to Inquisition, where Morrigan speaks - and in the background is this sad song
Sounds like 'vir suledin abelas' i think
I'm looking for that song
would love to hear it without Morrigan speaking in between
_"Mother!"_
_"Mother."_
2:05 to 2:30
4:10-5:50
We can't SEE the titan...
because We are inside it
I hope this song plays for Solas and Lavellan's final moment in Veilguard
This plays in the background when Inky and Solas gets annoyed at Morrigan for giving a lecture to the other party members about elven lore
so the sanctum is despoiled at last..
"Atish'all Vir Abelasan." It means "Enter the path of The Well of Sorrows"
Tevinter is a very very very diminished version el the elves from Solas time, I mean they had many virtues and marvels like Tevinter, but their pride and arrogance led them to a world wide war with themselves, being slaves to fake gods and such, magisters are only a glimpse of a VERY diminutive version of what a Elvhen God could be.

Edit, and its not the romance song, I only know that one from Solas' ending.
