Of course there's always the slight chance they'll do something similar to DA2 where Cassandra was trying to find the a hero to help "against what comes next." If I remember that line correctly. They could and up basing the game around finding another hero who has the knowledge and skills to either help fight Mythal & Solas or to unbind the inquisitor from Mythal. Of course if the inquisitor drank from the well that he could be someone you end up having to kill.

I fully believe mythal is the ultimate final boss of the entire series, she’s had a hand in every game thus far, through Flemeth, and also been influenced things such as the return of the dragons before the events of the game. I think if we are able to change solas’ mind mythal will toss him to the side and carry out her own revenge plan. Then we have to stop her and the final boss of the entire series is the queen of all dragons, to end the dragon age.

Except, her hand has (mostly) been beneficial. She established through Morrigan that there was a cure (possibly) for the blight in Da:O, not to mention saving both the Warden’s & Hawke. And while dragons are dangerous, they’re mostly a chaotic neutral element to Thedas. Plus it’s been suggested they hold the cure for the blight (the prof in DAI remarks infected high dragons form protective pustules around blight and Fiona was cured while pregnant with Alistair, whose ancestor supposedly drank dragon blood). So keeping dragons around might actually be a good thing. Also, Mythal’s endgame has always seemed to be to reap vengeance on those who murdered her. Like any spiri, she crawled her way to Flemeth because Flemeth was a mage who perfectly embodied the anger of betrayal. Assuming the old gods are tied to the elven pantheon, her revenge would have happened regardless because the blights would keep coming. Solas’ plan makes it a tad faster, but it’s going to create a ton of collateral human, dwarven, and elven damage. You have to remember Mythal is a mother. To Morrigan. Who is human. And unlike Solas she’s lived and interacted with the people of Thedas for centuries. Even in ancient times, while she was never nice, she was god who aimed for the path with the least amount of damage. Her being the main villain makes no sense from what we’ve been provided though I definitely think we haven’t seen the last of her.

dianna k that would still sound like death to me and I think Solas would feel the same, just as he considered his spirit friend dead in his personal quest. Personally for me, I hope there won't be such a thing. If a character that is established as one that has powers to come back from the dead (like Mythal) does so I don't mind so much, otherwise it's just, I don't know, such a cheap shock value. I just hate it when characters go "you thought I was dead? Haha jk". I'm not even sure if Solas plans to stay alive after he's done with his job and it troubles me.

dianna k and so far there's no proof such thing is oven possible for modern elves. Not even a hint. I doubt they'd be able to do it. Some if not all of Solas's new elven agents may be even aware that they basically sacrifice their lives, for the restoration of Elvhenan, I think. With no Veil, spirits woul find it much easier to Manifest a body too. For Solas spirits are as valuable as other people so it makes sense that he would repopulate Thedas this way.

I think it will happen, the veil will be destroyed, just because I have a strong believe that everything Sandal says must be true. BUUT i also I think there will be some big revelation concerning Mythal. At the end of the day part of her lived in non-other but Flemeth - a human, not an elf. She saw so much of this world, I truly think that Flemeth and Mythal had to agree on many things, and that through Flemeth eyes Mythal experianced for example her love to Morrigan ("You were never in danger from me" and the way she speaks in a non-Kieran cut scene). I am not saying that she is like super pro this world but Mythal understands this world way more than the Dread Wolf. Therefor I don't think Mythal and Solas are on the same side here. Also something that doesn't let me sleep at night - if Kieran had an Old God's soul in himself and Flemeth took it then it means now that Solas not only has a power of Mythal but also of our Dragon Age Origins archedemon. I wonder how much bigger is the price that we had to pay for our Warden to survive...

Like maybe he needs some sort of conduit even if he has risen as the Dread Wolf? And the red lyrium idol is the only other powerful conduit that survives of his old world. It also fits with my theory that Solas and Mythal made that red lyrium idol together. Maybe he needed some of her power to wield it? I dunno! So much fun to think about though!!!!!

I for one want Fen'Harel to succeed if it were up to me however i would want to play a protagonist that aids him in his plans, but alas i am to settle to redeem him. What most people fail to REMEMBER is that Solas is restoring a BROKEN WORLD it WAS ALREADY DESTROYED, people think that "Thedas is in peril great doom awaits from the beyond, we must stop Solas at all costs,what gives him the right blah blah." Without the sacrifice of Solas there wouldn't be a "WORLD to PRESERVE" in the 1st place. If you talk to Solas about his dreams in the fade he will tell you how the world was once before the veil. Let's explore this quickly Solas(member of the Elven Pantheon aka Fen'Harel) What did he do: Solas set his people free from slavery(by forming the veil and banishing the old gods) Wage war against powerful immortal mage kings by himself(except Mythal) Created the veil to banish the false gods(creating the current world as we now know it) What was the result: His friends could NEVER manifest between the fade and the physical realm and as a result would soon lose their purpose(some if not most for his friends were indeed spirits not just elves) In exchange for their freedom elves lost their history,magic,memories and immortality after the veil was created.(even when the elves were free from the false gods shortly after they became slaves of man) Most great dragons and exotic creatures became extinct.(due to human greed and ignorance) Most people conscious connection to the fade was blocked creating hostility among the races as some will wield magic while others cannot(this is especially true for the dwarves there is some form of evidence that dwarves can wield magic: play The DECENT DLC) Opinion: The world would be better off if Solas succeeds not just from a narrative perspective but also from a gameplay point of view(i mean if everyone possessed some form of magic wouldn't that be great i mean who wouldn't want to play as an Arcane Archer or a Shadow Caster)but on a serious note Solas despite is shortcomings is in my eyes is doing the right thing not just for the elves but all of other races. If the world of old is better than the world of present one should be work towards restoring what was lost rather than blunder on like things will get better when they are really not. In conclusion the Solas has destroyed the world once in the name of freedom and justice now he takes it upon himself to restore what was once lost. One could say he is trying to save the world, his methods might be questionable but "Without sacrifice there can be no victory." King Arthur Transformers:Last Knight

I think you might be right about Mythal using Solas as a puppet... I also think that even if she isnt, the outcome that Solas is fighting for wont happen how he thinks, much like the first time. My inquisitor will definitely try and convince Solas to stop what hes doing... but if he cannot be convinced I will definitely take him down. On a side note, your videos are like a light at the end of the tunnel... I thank you for making them and bringing all the lore and research you do to the table. Keep up the good work and hope you and your wife are being safe!!

As always great video! Maybe the red idol could be used to separate Mythal and Solas, so he is to weak to accomplish his goal. Could be a great way to either spare him or kill him. Cause I don’t see anyone being strong enough to kill him now, with just a blink of an eye you’re made to stone and I don’t see him being persuaded to give up his plan. If his great love couldn’t convince him who can? But if he is powerless, he would have no choice but to accept defeat and then you can choose to let him live or die

This is such a great video! All of the facts behind your speculations are arranged very nicely! A prediction that I thought of while watching this was about the red lyrium idol and that Solas needs it because it has a shit ton of lyrium in it, and he's going to undergo a ritual similar to how the magisters stepped into the Black City. They used tons of lyrium and sacrifices to do it. Like Solas said, he was going to use his orb/the Mark to go physically into the Fade, but since it's destroyed, he needs red lyrium to not just weaken the Veil, but maybe to blow a disastrous hole through it that will allow him to jump through a crack. And the ritual leading up to it may be bloody. Just my thoughts though! Also, how interesting that Solas painted his final painting before he knew his orb would be destroyed. I never thought this was so significant! You're right that Solas probably knew he would need Mythal's power/essence to continue with his plans, with or without his orb. Really cool fact you uncovered! And finally, I'm so, so excited for DA4! Thank you for keeping us updated and excited. I'm on the boat that plans on saving Solas, whatever means necessary, so I'm excited to finally play!

I'm thinking that the Ritual needs to be Solas' death. That way, even romanced Lavellans will have a reason to stop him rather than follow him. It could be an interesting plot twist where you get a separate set of quests for romanced Lavellans who want Solas to succeed, only to find out the Ritual will kill him, at which point you can get one of two endings - either Lavellan went batshit enough to still go for it, or she will try to stop the Ritual to save Solas. If she fails, which could be based on choices, well, DRAMA. And we're here for DRAMA, aren't we?
@wepepe76034 жыл бұрын
now I think that Solas is just one of Mythal's pawn. In the end Solas is not the true villian. The whole thing is just about Mythal to seek her revenge on Evanuris, and since Fen'harel is the one who seal them off in the fade, only him can undo it by tear down the veil. Then when the Evanuris are free, out of nowhere Mythal's will return and try kill the Evanuris with Solas or not. I'm sure Mythal know Solas need to get her power from Flemeth to able tear down the veil.

I gotta admit that I really wanted to see how Thedas would be without the veil XD When I played Trespasser I was secretly kinda... pro egghead lol. Not that I want Thedas to end, but it just seems wonderful to have the elven world back. So intriguing.. I also think Mythal is at fault here. Not that she is evil, just that she is blinded by revange like Anders. If every Evanuris was originally a spirit, Mythal would be Justice perverted into Vengeance. Like all others of the pantheon she had her purpose perverted. The difference is that it was caused by her betrayal, instead of an endless lust for power and worship. Solas is not exactly happy with destroying the world, he just doesn't see any other options. I chose to try to redeem him.

I wonder if the red lyrium idol is corrupting Solas. After all, we learned that red lyrium has the Blight. Maybe this is going to culminate in a war between the old gods of Tevinter (the archdemons which command the Blight) and the Evanuris. In which case, it's going to be hard to be a normal person in Thedas, soon.

I’m hoping that DA4 will have less to do with Solas and more to do with the conflict between Par Vollen and the Imperium. Throw in a slave revolt, Navarran dragons, the Grey Warden civil war, and end with Solas’ scheme coming into affect, and I’ll be happy. Think about it. If Solas is being teased to succeed regardless, then why have the story revolve around stopping him? He should be a surprise climax, where we achieve so much, but suddenly, the Inquisitor arrives and needs us to hunt Solas. We begin a large battle where the allies we’ve gained during the story fight Solas and his alliance of Elves. After much bloodshed, we finally reach Solas. Our choices as the Inquisitor in DAI and as the player in DA4 come back at us. Bad characters are treated harshly while good ones are spoken to with sorrow. A final battle ensues, with Solas being defeated. With his dying breath, he uses his magic to tear open the fade, wreaking havoc as demons and abominations massacre the warriors on both side. And as sudden as the chaos begins, the game ends, leaving us with only the next game to wait for. Now tell me that doesn’t sound epic.

I just watched all of your theories from the past year or so, including "Dragon Age Numbers" (Numbers = Ba-Midbar in Hebrew, "In the Desert", don't really understand the translation to "Numbers" lol). Growing up I studied some Tora so I thought my perspective might help me decipher this hint... In this video you recalled Flemythal pushed a piece of herself in to an Eluvian, suggesting she might be still alive somewhere (amazingly, I forgot about that entirely), so I suggest that instead of Solas filling the role of "God" in Numbers, Mythal does. In Numbers, Moses, who was a shepherd for 40 years, led the Isrealites through the desert to the promised land, and at the end of the journey was not allowed to the Promised Land because of his sins (one of the biggest sin of the Isrealites, if I recall, is sending spies to the Promised Land and then, upon hearing their findings, showed reluctance to live there, which is interesting, Moses' main sin, however, was not following God's plan one by word by hitting a rock for water, instead of talking to it). So in this story, I believe Solas is more like Moses, started with freeing his people from tyrants, and now leading them through the desert to the promised land. Also, Moses was a shepherd for 40 years, I immediately thought of border collies and their usage in leading sheep to their pens 😂 and who'll be a better shepherd than a massive wolf? If the comparison to Moses holds, that hints that Solas won't get to see the result of his efforts...

I was always under the impression that the idol had been used to craft Meredith's red lyrium sword at the end of Dragon Age II. When she pulls it out , the dialogue went along these lines: Meredith: You recognize it, do you not? Pure lyrium, taken from the Deep Roads. The dwarf charged a great deal for his prize. Hawke: The idol poisoned Bartrand's mind in the end. Meredith: He was weak, whereas I am not. From this exchange, I thought that "his prize" meant the idol. But now with it looking to be an important part of the next Dragon Age story, I'm guessing Meredith's sword was crafted from the additional red lyrium Bartrand must have mined. This would make much more sense, since the idol had nowhere near the amount of lyrium needed to craft a sword that size. :P

At any rate, I came to the comment session to share my thoughts/theories (I would like to share some in other videos if it's possible, I feel welcomed here, like I can express myself safely.) I know it's not related to Solas but... If the qunari are really going to conquer Ferelden under the rule of Sten most likely, what would happen (if there's a change) if the hero of Ferelden appears? If he/she has a high approval friendship with him back in Origins, what would happen if they meet on the battlefield? We will need to kill him? (I'm aware that the presence of the Hero of Ferelden it's very unlikely, but what if it happens? I've been very curious of how that scenario could it be.)

Then again if he does dies in the 4th dragon Age I can't help but feel closure from hearing it.

I'm gonna say I don't think either Mythal or Solas are maliciously evil (although they've committed plenty of evil acts). I think they're both in a situation where they see themselves as the ones who should be in charge of how the story ends, the ones who have the knowledge and should therefore wield the power: They're entitled, above all. They believe they don't need the rest of mortal Thedas, who should have no say in their fate and should submit to their 'greater plan.' They know best, after all! It's why Morrigan's struggle to get away from Flemeth is such a good story: Essentially, it's a reflection of what Thedas needs to do. It needs to take its own fate into its hands.

Hey! I can help, I think because Solas was once bound to Mythal, and he hates slavery, he burned Mythal's vallaslin of his face so he could be free. He relates to the Inquisitor in that moment if you drank from the well, and is reminded of what it was like to be bound to a God. He'd much rather serve her in his own freedom, willingly. Rather then as a slave, that's why he became known as the Rebel God, because he broke the chains of slavery, and binding among the elven people, and that's why he's angry when he see's Inqy willing putting themselves in slavery.
