Dragon Age Inquisition DLC
I think one of the DLCs for Dragon Age Inquisition will be about the Grey Warden’s Calling and how to cure it with the aid of The Architect. This is foreshadowed in many ways in the game.
The letter from the grey warden in Dragon Age Origins mentions that they are in “the west” looking for a cure for the calling.
[Letter]
So long as the grey warden is alive, they will be doing this quest. Supposedly Morrigan is the one who tells them of this tip.
[morrigan saying she told them]
I assume if the grey warden is not alive, they will be replaced by another character with similar goals. AKA Alistair, Logain, or Stroud.
Alistair’s mother, Fiona, is also in the game. She is the only grey warden to be cured of the taint and the calling. She might be wrapped up in this whole thing in some way.
[Fiona talking about losing the taint]
In the well of sorrows when I reversed the whispers, it talks about the calling. Among the lines said in the well are “go to him” and “the calling”. In the dragon age keep, one of the import world state options was if you killed the architect. They would not add this if it were not important.
The architect is the only person to ever figure out how to get rid of the calling in darkspawn by doing a reverse joining ritual with grey warden blood. At the ending of Dragon Age Awakening his hoard of non-calling darkspawn can go off and form their own community. Or you can kill him.
It doesn’t matter if you killed the Architect or not, it is hinted in Dragon Age 2 that he survives somehow no matter what. If you didn’t kill him, Nathaniel Howe lets Hawke know it is The Architect keeping the deep roads clear. If you do kill him, the deep roads are still cleared but you are not told why. I assume this means the Architect is still alive, but is much more reserved when interacting with strangers.
I think the decision on if you killed him or not will only affect his dialogues and disposition to help the grey warden. This type of thing happens all the time.
So overall I think the Next DLC will go like this. Morrigan will give the inquisitor a heads up on where to find the grey warden who is trying to find the calling cure. You head to “the west” and meet up with the Grey Warden. When you are there you also have some sort of interaction with The Architect who has found out more information about how to get rid of the calling from all infected hosts. He’s probably done some horrifying experiments on innocent people in order to gain this information and it’s up to you to decide if that was worth the cost. Typical Bioware good or bad plot.
