Fenris meets Flemeth

[@CaptainCharismaless]

Interesting that Fenris is hostile to anything magic but when he realizes Flemeth wasn't a normal mage made him curious instead of angry.

[@nelson_rebel3907]

CaptainCharismaless He got a inkling of what she was. The elves are different breed of being after all. And their senses are on a different level conpared to humans

Fenris probably notices that Flemeth is going to paint the place with what's left of his corpse if he provokes her.

[@izzylord6533]

Its cause his hatred is due to trama rather then being told to hate all magic

[@acrobaticswitches]

I think Fenris was terrified. He had no idea what this lady was and he had no idea how to approach her.

[@SuperNovaDwarf]

She knew who he was without even asking, I think that'd be terrifying for us all.

[@СемёнМаляров-ъ2п]

Only now I realise that this "fragment" of Flemeth may live on even after the Dread Wolf did his thing in "Trespasser". Huh.

[@GenieBella]

IIRC, there are notes (from the devs) in the DAI game files that state that Flemythal was cool with Solas killing her because she knew a piece of herself would live on in Morrigan. Probably in the same way that she has possessed her previous daughters' bodies.

[@acrobaticswitches]

[@kyleharrell4853]

I'd forgotten the specifics of this quest. Now that I've watched this video, I'm thinking the same thing.

I thought she sent out a bit of herself into the eluvian just before that happens. I wouldn't count out Flem/Mythal turning up at some point in the next game ....

[@Felsenkeks]

@@tagreenroyd i heard that the actress for Mythal's voice doesn't want to continue the role, so my guess is next time we see Morrigan she will have Mythal inside her.

[@dahdahdahdada6380]

I'm still pissed that she could turn into a freaking dragon but we were limited to a giant spider, a bear, and a swarm of bees.

[@thatguy2920]

you have to remember your learning on the go, where she had decades to practice the art.

[@unematrix]

how would you implement a dragon into a village?

[@mithrandirsilvertongue1406]

Dahdahdah Dada for one it'd be wayyy to big, and for two you learn your shape shifting abilities from Morrigan who can't turn into a Dragon herself, so why would you? She also says the animals must be studied for a time anyways, it would be pretty freakin awesome to turn into one though, I hope they at least bring back the skill line for DA4, I'll be disappointed if there isn't enough special magic, since we're going to the land of mages

[@Twichl]

It was Mythal that lent that ability as Morrigan couldn't shift into a dragon until she drank from the well.

Plot twist: Flemeth saves Hawke from the Fade in Adamant when he's the one left behind

[@twistedwithmelancholy8436]

😐 Is that a theory or is it canon?

[@Vainusy]

@@twistedwithmelancholy8436 No, but it's a good theory!

[@PhantomQueen89]

@@Vainusy It is a good theory but what if you leave Alistair behind? And what if Alistair has fathered her grandson?? She saved him once, why not again?

[@Vainusy]

@@PhantomQueen89 I would like that, but I think more about Hawke because she/he saved Flemeth, while Alistair no. And Flemeth said to Hawke something like "If you see an abyss don't hesitate and jump" in Dragon Age 2. I feel it is related to the fade quest in Inquisition and I think leaving Hawke could be interesting because of this

[@varric]

Plot twist: Hawke stops being relevant after DA2.

[@morganearp2265]

"Take care not to cling to [regret], to hold it so close that it poisons your soul." Good advice for a future Warden Bethany.

[@mzytryck]

"Do you know who I am, beyond that title?" I wonder if Flemeth would have told Merrill to keep kneeling if she shown that she actually did know Flemeth's real identity; her comment about the people kneeling too easily makes me think she might have been willing to accept some reverence as Mythal, but was amused/irritated that she was being knelt to by someone who knew her merely as Asha'bellanar.

[@Starfang_Wanderer]

There's also the fact that Mythal didn't want her people to be enslaved like they were to the other Elvhan, so it makes sense that she didn't want her to kneel in that regard. That's what I thought of when replaying it

[@gaildahlas]

@@Starfang_Wanderer I never really caught anything to indicate that Mythal had a different opinion on slavery to the other Evanuris. She treated her people well and cared about them, sure, but that doesn't necessarily mean she wanted to free them or that they weren't still bound to her (I mean, the whole Well and sentinels with vallaslin thing suggests that she's fine with all that). As far as I can remember the slave-freeing and rebellion was all Fen'Harel.

[@varric]

That Solas declared that Mythal was the less evil of the Evanuris, just mean that she only look good compared with the rest of the Elven Gods, not that she was actually good.

[@LaryAk47]

@@varric But Solas said "she was the best of them", not the less evil. She helped him free some people didn't she?

“Then Stand. The People bend their knee too quickly” Damn, even with as disorganized as BioWare was in Dragon Age, they hinted about a mystery fact this far back.

[@nicholasjohnson8191]

So flemeth was spoiling DAI heavy. She was telling Hawke about when he the Inquisitor and the others would be stuck in the fade. Hawke would need to make a choice. She literally was telling the player to choose Hawke to stay in the fade

I must be stupid because I just realized her "appointment" is her probably finding Solas after he woke up. I completely missed this detail YEARS after playing this game and Inquisition.

[@bsm1171]

Flemeth speaks of the appointment in the past tense. "I HAD an appointment to keep". The appointment to keep is when the warden confronts Flemeth for Morrigan's loyalty quest.

[@burningxnecro]

4:40 "Regret is something I know well. Take care not to cling to it, to hold it so close that poisons your soul." This feels very much like she's talking about Solas and his plans for genocide.

[@MattHunX]

@@thenaturalfooland Well, with the way Varric was mentioning "Daisy", it didn't give the impression that Merrill had gone down a dark path with her blood magic, so there's much less of a chance she'd be on Solas' side.

Jeremy Smith Not enemy, she has been forshadowing Solas's reckoning since she is Mythal, or rather the Vessel for Mythal. She knew Solas was alive still and would and that when he Awoke that he would need her power after since he would still be weak from his sleep. Solas has always been the Endgame, and now His time has come, the time of the Dread Wolf Arises once again after 8000 years he will reshape the world again.

[@terra_the_nightingale135]

Nelson_ Rebel she even says “I have an appointment to keep” that appointment is for Solas

[@Raydr62]

Flementh is a straight vessel of mythal, but she does lead a good warning for Hawke and Morrigan. The devs hinted that a fragment of her lingers in morrigan or with morrigan, so I dont think this is the last we see of her.

[@gaildahlas]

@@terra_the_nightingale135 I think the appointment she's referencing is over a decade too early for Solas (bear in mind he only wakes up a year before Inquisition, and Hawke's story spans multiple years). It's more likely something to do with an encounter in Origins - not the battle at Ostagar because that just happened, but maybe Morrigan's whole "please kill Flemeth for me so she doesn't possess me and use me as her next physical vessel" quest/potential fight.

[@yang6642]

If it isn’t Mythal who ends up being the big bad of the story I think it would be the leader of the Elven pantheon: Elgar’nan. Elgar’nan would make an interesting villain because not only was he the leader of the ancient elves, he may also be the Maker himself.

[@MaCome4631]

@@yang6642 you are right, albeit there is one specific element that disturbs me : amongst the slave markings, there is Mythal's ! How could the goddess of Justice have a slave marking of hers ? And I agree with you : Elghar'nan would make a marvelous villain, perhaps because among all ancient elven gods, he is the one most shrouded in mystery...

[@yang6642]

Mathilde Colas Keeping slaves is definitely wrong but if we are to believe what Solas said in Trespasser, she wasn’t an evil tyrant when it came to her slaves, she cared for them and protected them. I think June has the most mystery surrounding him, Elgar’nan has a few legends about him that give us some sort of insight into his personality, from what I’ve gathered he was a psychotic tyrant whose wrath could only be silenced by Mythal because she was his wife.

[@nelson_rebel3907]

Mathilde Colas The markings werent always for slaves though. You have to remember their people revered the Evanuris for thousands of years. The entire race was Immortal and all could use magic because the world naturally started off as one whole thing with the physical and the Fade. Many used the markings just as the current elves do. To show their respect for the Evanuris and whichever one they revere/follow the most due to their "sphere" of influence. Although it DOES beg to question. Just how powerful are the Evanuris that an entire Race of Immortal elves who ALL could use magic "natural as breathing". But yet still saw the Evanuris as so powerful their it defied even the understanding of the most advanced and powerful civilization to exist in Thedas. Im betting they Rofl stomp thedas without the Aid of Old Gods and Titans combined. Remember that both those LOST to the Evanuris and hold a grudge against them
