Dragon Age: Inquisition - Well of Sorrows (Morrigan drinks, Abelas lives)

Well its because they are always acting dodgy lel.

Abelas would be Solas’ right hand man in the next game but also the one who will betray him if he goes too far.

[@geeteshm4858]

A spy in our team of DA4

[@LastAyleidKing]

Solas.... "DONT FUCKING ASK ME AGAIN! *secretly teasing an overwhelming dlc spoiler early XD"

[@brainspxce]

And little did Morrigan know of who her Mother was.

[@Over10rDPrime]

Mark my words, Abelas (if he survives) will be a party member in DA4

[@franpe6522]

Why?

[@Over10rDPrime]

@@franpe6522 just a feeling, but if you look at it, it would be very convenient. He is the same age as Solas, he could introduce a new class, he has a lot of potential for lore development, and he could be the opposite to someone in the party who is "very modern" His ending is also left open-ended if he survives...but mostly it's just a very strong feeling on my part.

[@fakhri21]

Nah, too many choices for him to die. They won't waste so many resources of animations, dialogue, etc to be a party member because of that. But having him in party would be cool tho.

[@jadefeather4802]

Nah, DA4 seems to be setting up Solas as the antagonist, and Abelas seemed to know who he was with the "elves like you?" line. So if he does show up he'll likely be working for Solas

[@oklahomie95]

@Iconodule will they’ve told us now, our part in DA4 needs/will be people Solas doesn’t know in order to be successful in stopping him

[@L4sz10]

Cassandra: "Let her take the risk." Trevelyan: *lets Morrigan drink from the well. Cassandra Disapproves 😤

[@Willzb-xk4ew]

Thats one of DA:I biggest issues (In my opinion) heck me just telling Cassandra i dont believe in the maker, she disapproves

[@scottcontreras4569]

​@Willzb-xk4ew Her faith is important to her she finds it fulfilling and comforting of course she'd want to share that with u.

[@steveceja4772]

Hmm I wonder if we will see Abelas in Dragon age 4

[@Isaiflamand]

Idk maybe... Some ancient elves join the inquisition we can see one of them in skyhold

[@steveceja4772]

Oh i see. Anywho i cant really see Abelas joining Solas, yea he's sad that there's nothing left of his people, but at the same time he seems to realize that the elves brought it on themselves and their time is over. Bringing back the elven world would just lead back to more infighting

[@CreativeUsernameEh]

That's not a Sentinel Elf, that's Cillian, he's the multiplayer arcane warrior.

[@h3lm1H]

No if morrigan kill him

[@jcksparrowfan]

I stopped letting Morrigan drink when her telling my elf she knew more about her heritage pissed me off >.

[@starcrying6441]

She was raised by an elven goddess so i think she does.....

[@franpe6522]

@@starcrying6441 she was raised by the witch of the wilds, who after that gained a extra background in some point between DAO and DA2. So she doesnt XDDDDD

[@franpe6522]

@@starcrying6441 No, just kidding, she does. XD But because of her studies of ancient elven culture, surely more deep than some random dalish like the inquisitor.

[@franpe6522]

@@starcrying6441 I know. But if you remember the lines of Morrigan about her mother (about she remember her younger) in DAO, the story doesnt fit. The all "mythal vessel" thing comes later, in DA2.

[@sarcastichamsandwich5413]

Guys, a thought just occurred to me. Spoiler alert for the Trespasser DLC: We all know Solas is the Dread Wolf. And we all know that Abelas knew everything there was to know about elven lore because he lived it. Take a moment to realize that Solas is in the same room Abelas is, discussing what they both know is true. Only the immortal elves know what truly happened, and since Solas is not one of the sentinel elves, he must be another immortal. But when Fen'Harel created the Veil, he cut off immortality. And so the only way Solas can BE immortal is if he IS Fen'Harel. Do you think Abelas knows who Solas is? Maybe that's why he is being so illusive with his answers about the elven "gods". Solas, Fen'Harel, is standing there with humans, and none of them treat him in accordance who he really is. Maybe Abelas knows this, and, recognizing that Solas is keeping this hidden from the humans, respects Solas's wishes and answers questions tied to the Fall with vague facts. Also, where does Abelas go once the Temple of Mythal is destroyed? Staying on the thought that Abelas knows Solas's true identity, goes to follow him to bring about the old elven world. Pure speculation; I haven't done a lot of research into the lore, but it's just an interesting thought that came to him.

[@franpe6522]

Hmmm... I think is more simple than that. Think about it, Abelas scripts need to be used both when Solas is in the party and when he isnt. Animations are expensives and there is little room from particulatiries, despite of a few lines. Plus, what the point in knowing the Solas true identity before Trespasser? (Ok, It was obvious enough than he was at least an ancient elf) You can believe Abelas and his followers know the truth and joined him before the temple. In the end I think it doesnt matter, because i highly doubt they would be in the next game ( or a mention).

[@610Hobbies]

Fuck Solas.

[@nieldoenn711]

Abelas is a "guard" for that temple and it's well ... it doesn't mean that Solas had visited every temple of Mythal and knew everyone. I think he recognizes that he is an ancient elvhen but not that he is the dread wolf.

[@cuzimryte7011]

This is forever ago but if Morrigan or the inquisitor drink from the well, they also would know he was Fen'Harel. If this was the case, im sure the writers would have put some dialogue in the scripts after the mission when the team is back at Skyhold.

[@gt4lex]

@@cuzimryte7011 Not necessarily, because drinking from the well also puts at Mythal's mercy. You're tied to her will, which means the knowledge the "voices" will give you will be what Mythal wants you to know. And she's basically BFF with Fen'Harel, added to the fact that letting them know it's actually Solas would shift their focus away from Corypheus to some extent, that's two reasons to not disclose that information.

[@tal2862]

In all my playthroughs, I always liked this outcome the most, even when I was an elf.

[@jjb33083]

Damn Morrigan, y'all have the same exact eyes! Subtle clue, but one I expected HER to catch. Where is The Warden when you need em? 😆

[@thatoneguynoonenotices3200]

11:54 Inquisitor is like "Shit the hero of fereldan is gonna kill me"

[@Alphapkmn]

That one guy no one notices HoF: *looming behind* “Oh I’m not gonna kill you. YET.”

[@alexloponte7056]

Ferelden*

[@needlesslll7490]

Spoilers below You know...the "Bound to Mythal" line matters a hell of a lot more if you know what happens in Trespasser and what Solas plans to do about the elven gods.....

[@jonbear3300]

Well he wants to tear the Veil apart and free them in the end. No one knows what he wants to do with them after that.

[@SmartAss4123]

@@jonbear3300 He said he had plans. But I dont see how. He was way more powerful before the veil and couldnt kill them then. Maybe they've gotten weaker now too? And that brings them to the level of being killed? Who knows

[@dak2386]

I remember things Abelas outfit was so cool

[@Alewis-jd3zp]

So corypants copied the gods of old by infusing a part of himself into the dragon essentially creating a arch demon sooooo if you have Kieron with the soul of the arch demon from DAO wouldn’t that mean when flemeth/myths came for the soul, she was returning the part of her soul from her dragon ?

[@Willzb-xk4ew]

So dont read if you haven't played the game But since solas took the soul from flemmeth, doesnt that mean morrigan is bound to solas?

[@Frozenkex]

Great point, that's entirely possible.

[@Willzb-xk4ew]

@@Frozenkex then again flemmeth did take a soul from Kieran so maybe thats the soul solas took. Flemmeth probably used it as a decoy

[@lumpyspacecadet]

Doesn't Solas seem to irrationally hate Morrigan? He doesn't even know her, although he's pegged her perfectly.

[@Frozenkex]

well, throughout this ordeal she has acted like she's an expert on ancient elves etc, and we know Solas is a lot more knowledgeable. Guess that got to him :p

[@lumpyspacecadet]

Frozenkex I suppose my other issue is that he seems to know she's all about greedily gaining power for herself, but how does he know that? He's totally right, though.

[@Cynrose]

lumpyspacecadet She is perfect for the price. Even though she may not be aware, she's had most contact with Mythal.

[@Drago-lp5co]

Bist du bescheuert? !!

[@gt4lex]

What I'm wondering is how Solas would have reacted if he learned Morrigan is Mythal's child.

[@CreativeUsernameEh]

As cool as Abelas was, holy shit, these Sentinels were such fucking wusses. Maybe it's bad animation or something, but that elf got PUNCHED because he didn't even approach with his weapons up. C'mon.

[@EndingVisions]

Does anyone know what the blue figure is that goes in the eluvian after us ? My guess is that’s Mythal.

[@cuzimryte7011]

Strange, I followed the same dialogue options and he still attacked Morrigan and I. I played through it twice. Was there something special you did in the first meeting when he runs off to destroy the well?

[@Frozenkex]

You have to complete all the elven rituals/puzzles and enter in alliance with him, then he still runs off but later can be negotiated with.

[@spaztikangel]

I just did that mission who is that ? Mine went way different.
