The Blanketfort (crying and throwing up) - The Official Solas Thread [Spoilers]

Well there is the mural of killing a Titan, but who's to say that was the first or that whoever did the actual murdering didn't have the glory stolen? Also I wonder about Mythal being a dragon. The more time that passes and the more snippets we receive, I'm inclined to believe that either Mythal had a special connection to dragons or simply they were what one strove to become, hence the reverence and taking on the form.

I reckon all of the Evanuris took dragon-form sometimes!

So... my friend started Inquisition not long ago and she's doing the Solas romance. I just can't wait to see her face when she plays Trespasser. 
I'm going to have so much fun with her suffering. 

Am I a bad friend?

Since it seems to be theory time, I thought I would throw one in. I mentioned this in the old thread and is one of many I have kicking around the ol' dome and I'm more inclined to lean towards as time goes on. Highly doubtful no one else has thought of or not tossed it out before me, but we've got forever until DA4 so why not?

Canon has been established Titan's appear to be the natural counterbalance of the Fade. Enforce reality in a sense. Lyrium is alive, is Titan's blood, and 'sings'. Now theory time: Blood magic interferes with a mage's ability to connect to the Fade (sounds like an enforcement of reality) and this would be a reasonable deduction considering what is more tangible and real then a part of your body? So, lets say there was indeed a partial truth in the myth of Andruil finding power within the Void and it was the Blight/would become the Blight (personally I'm inclined to believe the Evanuris did not create it but they did spread it and allowed it to get a foothold in the world. Way to go guys... ). If the power that was in the Void was for instance a form of blood magic and being exposed to it warped Andruil's (Fade magic), you would have something that was corrupt and utterly twisted against its nature. Or going to the Void may have twisted Andruil's blood magic (she is called the Goddess of Sacrifice so perhaps she might have double-dipped in a sense by using blood magic sometimes). Either way, the power known as the 'Blight' is now born. It would explain why Titans can both repel it for a time (Reality enforcers, blood magic) and absolutely hate it (the taint is a twisted form of blood magic).



'But wait' you may ask, 'how does killing Titans factor in?'. Well given that we know that playing with the Blight doesn't exactly leave you all there after a time and chasing rainbows, what kept Andruil and possibly anyone she came into contact with from becoming something like a Darkspawn? Here is where I think Titans come in. Not only for their blood to get a major power boost, but for lessening the effects of the Blight. There is a Codex entry, The keepers of Fear (Codex) that mentions 'feed the stone your screams'. Sound like anything? They would have to get the idea somewhere right?



So you have Titans being killed for not only their blood but the Evanuris need a way to maintain their sanity. Drastic shift in the natural balance of the world to one side with the death of Titans but also the introduction of blood magic (reality) into the Fade (imagination). The Golden City being Black and I believe there are Codex entries that say red lyrium/the taint has been spotted within the Fade -but I have trouble finding them at the moment-. Theoretically this would probably start a considerable unraveling of the world, causing the very foundations to begin to tear itself apart. World would literally be 'going tits up' as Sera would say. Explains why Solas would need to put people in time out and has such a fear of the Blight.



Or it could all make absolutely no sense but to me . This is why I lurk, I'm a lurker not a theorist!

I did the very same thing to another friend. noragrets

I'm just an ordinary mage who likes to save things and has completely nothing to do with bloodmagic

I totally dig that Avatar Maker.

Am I the only one who thinks the smallest font is too big? :'<
