Red Crossing

Red Crossing is a town in Orlais known for being attacked by elven forces in 2:09 Glory, leading to the Exalted March of the Dales and the dissolution of the elven kingdom.
== History ==
Accounts of the events at Red Crossing differ significantly between human and elven sources. Chantry sources state that the elves attacked the defenseless village of Red Crossing unprovoked and committed atrocities that enraged humans across Thedas while elven sources state that it was an attack made in anger by a small raiding party and note the Chantry's repeated attempts to send unwanted missionaries and templars into elven lands.Codex entry: The DalesCodex entry: The City Elves
Accounts found in Din'an Hanin, the final resting place of the Emerald Knights, show that both sides played a part in the beginning of the conflict.
 
The attack on Red Crossing led to open conflict between Orlais and the Dales, eventually leading to the Exalted March of the Dales and the complete destruction of the elven kingdom. In recent years, a pamphlet published by the University of Orlais has also put forward the theory that the village was sacrificed to justify the subjugation of the Dales.
