Lyrics:
Dragons in the sky, the fighting has begun
Shadow versus light, and who will stand when it is done?
Magisters and fright, his destiny it calls
Inquisitor your hand will reprimand before he falls!
Now are the days of wine and gilded arms
Now are the days when magic is reborn
Seal up the breach, the evil is no more
Once and for all, we close the darkened door
Peril in their eyes, the battle has begun
Death becomes the ashes of the evils yet to come
Inquisitor's delight, a destiny it shines
Magister your ancient hand is broken in the light
Now are the days of wine and gilded arms
Now are the days when magic is reborn
Seal up the breach, the evil is no more
Once and for all, victory is ours
Darkness never ever rise again
Darkness never ever rise again
Dragons in the sky, the fighting has begun
Shadow versus light, and who will stand when it is done?
Magisters and fright, his destiny it calls
Inquisitor your hand will reprimand before he falls!
Now are the days of wine and gilded arms
Now are the days when magic is reborn
Seal up the breach, the evil is no more
Once and for all, we close the darkened door
Darkness never ever rise again
Darkness never ever rise again
Peril in their eyes, the battle has begun
Death becomes the ashes of the evils yet to come
Inquisitor's delight, a destiny it shines
Magister your ancient hand is broken in the light
Now are the days of wine and gilded arms
Now are the days when magic is reborn
Seal up the breach, the evil is no more
Once and for all, victory is ours

Normally, people play Dragon Age and then listen to this song. But I was different. I was looking for a "medieval tavern song" on youtube and this was one in the playlist. Fell in love at first hear and start to research about it. That was what led me to play Dragon Age.

[@calkdez]

[@KanaYua]

same, even tho I knew Dragon Age series since a long time ago. But never has a chance to play it 'cause back in 2009 I'm like 10 Y.O without PC, but I have the Dragon Age animation DVD (from my sister BF) and watched it on my TV

It has a tone of a story long past, a cheerful reminiscence of a thing which once happened a long time ago as is not an immidiate memory, like a story told for a long time, taking a cheerful tone of wanderlust and wonder about what that must have been.

[@riakun]

When I first heard this song in the trespasser DLC, it was right after everything was starting to go down and the Mystery was starting to unfold. I still wasn't quite sure what was going on at that moment, but once I exited out of the fade, this song started playing. There was something about it that was so extremely Eerie to me that I instantly got chills because I expected something to happen by the end of the song (especially when she starts singing "darkness never ever rise again" because you had defeated this Grand evil only two years before, but it felt as though something just as evil was lurking in the shadows all around you). 10/ 10 was my favorite scene in the entire trespasser DLC. Probably one of my favorite songs from Dragon Age Inquisition as well.

Speaking of Magisters all I want to see is Archon Dorian of House Pavus side by side with the Inquisitor.

[@MonarchMKUltra]

I have this idea for the next game where the Venatori don't die out in Tevinter like they did in the south. They regroup and become a larger group that overthrows the Magesterium and kill The Archon and potential heirs. Much like Corypheus did with The Conclave. And you have to help Tevinter fight them. And your actions contribute to who eventually becomes Archon like The Divine Election.

[@sanablue]

Whatever it is, I really hope they don't let Dorian die!! It was heartbreaking af when I romanced Solas in my first playthrough, but please, Bioware, don't take Dorian as well!! I might die then...

[@rokkfel4999]

@Connor Lonergan yes but play as two people the hand of the inquisitor and the character you made last game and idk im trying to figure it out

[@CreeketsCreek]

[@Newovar]

I really hope we're going to play as the Inquisitor in the next Dragon Age. I want my fucking left arm back.

[@sethn5217]

+Rhyen surname I dunno like, maybe if the Inquisitor's a mage maybe they could make an etherial arm. and I think in the Sera epilogue the Shequisitor had some sort of attachment at the end of her stump of an arm.

[@sanablue]

Yeah I played a female rogue with a bow (no Sera romance though) and my Inquisitior had something like a crossbow on her arm. I always wondered what that would be if she hadn't been a rogue...

[@sanablue]

Rhyen surname Okay, so you will have that tiny crossbow thing with any class I believe.... but yeah some kind of magical arm would be awesome!

[@Newovar]

They seriously need to bring back the inquisitor as our main character. Make him like Shepard so Mans1ay3r can make some nice Dragon Age Gamer Poop

[@sirocco2810]

Played an male elven mage and I did have that same crossbow in the epilogue. I don't think we will play as the inquisitor again though, as much as I would absolutely love to
