Duncan gives you detailed instructions - and away you go! Note: If you have not already done so, now is a good time to save. The Tower Quest Go ahead and run for the tower - through the gateway you originally entered the base by - and pause for a cinematic CS in which you see Duncan and the King ready to fight. Here come the darkies and boy do they look fearsome! But hey, it is all good, because you have Loghain backing your play, right? Right? As the battle ensues you are back in control of yourself - now make your run for the tower - and if you did not make potions to replace the ones you used earlier, do that if you can! Woops! As you reach the ramp to the tower you meet with some guards who inform you that the tower has been taken by darkspawn, and pretty much everyone is dead! As you make your way up towards the tower there will be groups of darkspawn for you to battle - and after each battle you should be sure that you loot their corpses - and loot any plants or chests that you come across as well. If you find more Elfroot - and assuming that you stocked a supply of flasks and you have the Herbalism skill - you should always try to replace the health potions that you have used up. There will be a few minor fights on the way to the tower doors, and of course once you are inside there are some more frantic fights - just keep on eye on everyone's health and switch to them and apply a potion when you see them getting low. You will be working your way through three levels to the fourth - the Top Level - where you will confront a nasty Ogre (Boss Mob), and along the way there will be many opportunities to loot items and money. A lot of this stuff will be useful later, so you should try to remember to loot! That is the last time I will emphasize that strongly - if you have not figured out that you need to be looting at this point, well... As you light the signal fire you are treated to a CS in which Loghain retreats like a coward, refusing to send his troops in, and the darkspawn cut down the King and his forces like a scythe harvesting ripe barley. Duncan himself must take on the Ogre that slayed the King - and he does - but at what cost? The Ogre is dead - the King is dead - and now so is Duncan. Oh man! Just when you think things could not get any worse, darkspawn appear out of nowhere in the tower and you are taken down by a well-aimed shot. The world goes dark - is this death? Nope! Rescued by the Witch of the Wilds You awaken in the Witch's hut to find Morrigan standing over you. She tells you that her mother rescued you from the top of the tower by turning into a giant bird and grabbing you and Alistair in her talons. Believe that or do not, but now is the time to talk to Morrigan and get as much information as you can from her. A note about the dialogue options - talking with the characters that you meet is one of the best ways to develop a basic relationship with them - and for characters like Morrigan, who will be joining your party, you should always take advantage of the opportunities to chat. You want them to like you, because it helps in certain parts of the game later - and of course if they happen to be either of the opposite sex or so inclined to the same sex, there are some Achievements / Trophies that you can earn for romancing them. Add to that the fact that often the information you page 42 / 145

Once you have had your chat with Morrigan loot the gloves from the crate near the bed and then exit the hut to speak with Flemeth - who more or less admits that she is indeed the Witch of the Wilds from the old legend. Take this opportunity to chat with her - she has some useful background on the Arch Demon, and indirectly she helps Alistair figure out what you need to do next. Flemeth tells Morrigan that you will be leaving shortly - and that Morrigan would be leaving with you when you depart - and Morrigan is not happy to hear this. Clearly she sees it as something of a betrayal by her mother - but then again, she does not think much of her mother anyway from the things she has said in the past. Still, an ally is an ally, and we can use the help! Morrigan suggests that we visit the village North of the Wilds as our starting point - and that sounds like a good idea to me, but first we should give Morrigan a chance to speak her mind, right? Her sarcasm aside, I suspect that we will be glad that we accepted Morrigan into our party. Into The Wilds As you leave Flemeth's hut you are once again in the Wilds - but this is the same area that we were in before when we were preparing for the Ritual, so there should be no confusion as to the lay of the land, right? Directly ahead (look for the torches) there is a zone point marked World Map - this is what we want - and as you approach it you are asked if you want to gather your party to leave, the answer to that being Yes! The village of Lothering is the only choice that we can make on the map right now, so go ahead and choose that, so that we can begin our journey through the Wilds to Lothering! Before we arrive at Lothering, we are treated to a CS of Loghain Mac Tir adressing a crowd - and a noble steps forward from the crowd and questions the events that the traitor is describing. Loghain has usurped power, declaring himself the guardian of the Queen, but clearly he has plans of his own on the question of who is actually in charge! It may help in understanding Loghain to read his Codex entry now - the man was not born a member of the nobility - in fact he was a commoner - and that explains the brash relations that he has with the nobility and his contempt for them. He is something of a self-made man, and certainly he has a very large ego. He is not a stupid man, but perhaps he is partly blinded by his ambition, and he has already demonstrated a willingness to betray even his closest associates to attain his own goals. Interrupted Journey After the CS with Loghain you are treated to a CS of a group of darkspawn who are blocking your path to Lothering - and a fight ensues! - OPTIONAL EVENT - If you are playing the Human Noble Warrior origin line, you already have your own pet Mabari warhound - but if you are playing one of the other origins, this is where you acquire your pet dog and where he joins your party! After assisting you in the fight with the darkspawn, the dog happily approaches you, and Alastair comments a little about the breed of dog and why he seems attached to you. You are given the chance to name him now - I called mine Clavin after my real life pet dog, who is a Pitbull in a Dachshund suit - but you can leave his name as just "Dog" if you like. If you check the Codex entry for your new pet, you will learn that he is the mabari that you helped the Kennel Master cure back in Ostagar! He has sought you out and clearly as far as he is concerned, you are now his new page 43 / 145
