== Location comments ==
=== Cradle of Sulevin ===
* (Upon entry)
** Inquisitor: So this is where the Sulevin Blade was lost.
** Blackwall: Doesn't look so dangerous. Perhaps the stories were just that.
** Solas: Lost or misused? There is a reason it was never reclaimed.
** Cole: Lots of things are lost here.
* (By an altar)
** Inquisitor: There’s an altar.
** Iron Bull: All right. Let's mess with it and see what happens.
** Cassandra: Be careful. This place is far too quiet for my liking.
** Vivienne: If the elves performed some sort of magic here... we should proceed with caution, Inquisitor.
** Solas: Be careful. There may be a reason this ground has lain undisturbed for so long.
* (After recovering a piece for Ruined Blade)
** Inquisitor: It's only part of the sword. The elves broke it, after all. 
** Dorian: And no one's recovered it since, thanks to the Revenant.
** Vivienne: That corpse was possessed by a pride demon. No doubt drawn by the elves' use of blood magic.
** Solas: They performed a ritual they did not understand. It appears they paid the consequences for it. 
** Solas: That corpse was possessed by a pride demon. I doubt it was alone.
** Inquisitor: There must be more altars.
* (After recovering the final piece for Ruined Blade)
** Inquisitor: The final piece of the sword. 
** Inquisitor: Perhaps Dagna can find a way to restore it.
=== Crestwood ===
* (First time only, moving from down from the camp to the lakeside)
** Inquisitor: There must be a way to get to the rift in the lake.
** Cassandra: Yes. Preferably without drowning.
** Iron Bull: Swimming?
** Dorian: You mean, aside from wearing all your armor and wading in.
** Varric: Maybe the locals will lend us a boat.
** Cole: It sounds different. The water changes the song.
* (After meeting the Grey Wardens who are looking for Hawke’s Warden contact)
** Inquisitor: None of those Wardens mentioned a new leader. I don’t think they’re part of Corypheus’s plot to seize the Order. 
** Cassandra: I do not think so, either. The infiltration in their ranks may be subtle. 
** Cole: They stay by oaths sworn in blood. Not theirs, then their own. They're true.
** Inquisitor: I hope Hawke’s Warden friend has answers for us.
* (Approaching Caer Bronach)
** Inquisitor: There's the keep the Mayor talked about, and the bandits.
** Cassandra: The walls look sturdy. Taking it wouldn't be easy.
** Iron Bull: Gate open, no patrols. Risky, but we could rush it.
** Cole: They're frightened inside, trapped by walls that protect them.
* (Approaching the door that leads towards the dam after capturing the Keep) 
** Here. The mayor said the dam controls were through this gate.
* (Approaching the dam) 
** That building on the dam must be where we can open the floodgates. 
* (By the floodgate controls)
** Inquisitor: The mayor said darkspawn destroyed these controls ten years ago. Who repaired them? 
** Varric: Good point. Let’s ask the mayor.
** Cole: The mayor. His shame had this shape.
** Sera: Right. Something stinks besides fish and... fish.
* (Entering Old Crestwood for the first time)
** Inquisitor: So this is Old Crestwood.
** Cole: They were scared when the water came.
** Varric: (Coughs.) Smell just hits you, doesn't it?
** Vivienne: (Coughs.) Delightful. I should've brought a handkerchief.
** Solas: I can feel the weakness in the Veil even above ground.
** Solas: Spirits are being called here like moths to flame.
* (Old Crestwood - seeing spirits)
** Inquisitor: These spirits must have come through the rift.
** Vivienne: At least they're calm. How refreshing.
** Dorian: Let's close it before more of them decide to try on corpses.
** Cole: One's looking.
** Cole: I'm Cole. Don't be afraid!
* (Old Crestwood - in the mayor’s old house)
** Inquisitor: There’s a plaque. This was the mayor’s old home.
** Cassandra: I doubt he'll want it back. Should we inquire?
** Cole: The mayor dreams about this place. Shock and shame and hurt. I don’t know why. 
** Inquisitor: We could ask him.
* (Old Crestwood - upon finding the letter in the mayor’s old house) 
** A letter from Crestwood’s mayor. Damp but legible. 
* (Old Crestwood - finding the entrance to the Flooded Caves) 
** Where does this lead?
* (Entering the Flooded Caves)
** Inquisitor: Let’s go seal that Fade rift.
:
:
* (Flooded Caves - finding bodies in the caves)
** Inquisitor: Bodies? Were people living down here when Old Crestwood flooded?
** Vivienne: A terrible way to die, drowning.
** Dorian: Claw marks on the walls. (Sighs.) Best not to think about it too much.
** Iron Bull: Bad way to go.
** Varric: Poor bastards. I’m going to have nightmares just thinking about it. 
** Cole: Yes. A wall of water, washing over. Lungs tight to bursting, and then suddenly soft, sleepy, sliding away.
* (Flooded Caves - dwarven ruins)
** Inquisitor: There’s dwarven ruins down here.
** Varric: Looks like an old outpost. What's it doing here?
** Vivienne: This area is more storied than I thought.
** Solas: The dwarves built well. Their runes still sing.
** Dorian: The whole area is still lit up. Remarkable.
* (Flooded Caves - sealing the fade rift)
** Cassandra: The dead will finally rest easy in Crestwood.
** Dorian: That should stop the undead hordes from attacking Crestwood.
** Inquisitor: Let's tell the mayor.
* (Flooded Caves)
** Solas: These ruins seem endless. How far to the surface?
** Cassandra: Are you sure this is the way to the surface?
** Inquisitor: I feel a draft. There must be a way out nearby.
* (Flooded Caves - Family of nugs)
** Inquisitor: The nugs seem to like it down here.
** Varric: I bet. Ever tried braised nug with elfroot? It was my brother's favorite when we were growing up.
** Varric: Tastes moldy and dry at the same time.
** Cassandra: Delightful.
** Vivienne: I don't understand your fascination, Inquisitor.
** Vivienne: Some of the ladies at court keep the little vermin as pets.
** Cassandra: I suppose they dress them in collars with jewels?
** Vivienne: You might not be so charmed by waking up to one of the beasts snoring in your ear.
** Cole: It's quiet. They like the quiet. 
** Cole: Dwarves used to trap them, but they don't remember the dwarves. 
** Cole: Even dwarves don't really remember the dwarves.
** Cassandra: You know, Leliana used to keep one as a pet.
** Inquisitor: You're joking.
** Cassandra: I am not. What was its name again? Schmeples? Shmuples?
** Cassandra: It is right on the tip of my tongue...
* (Reading the mayor’s letter of confession)
** Inquisitor: A letter of confession from the mayor?
** Inquisitor: It says he was the one who flooded Old Crestwood ten years ago. To stop the Blight from spreading.
** Varric: I knew he was nervous about more than the undead.
** Cassandra: It’s monstrous, but if it stopped the Blight from wiping out the entire village...
** Iron Bull: Villagers learn about this, they're not going to be happy.
** Dorian: What a sad mess. Will the Inquisition bring him in?
** Vivienne: The mayor's wracked with guilt. If he hadn't confessed, I doubt we'd have found out.
* (Approaching Glenmorgan Mine, if the Inquisitor sided with the mages)
** Inquisitor: Red Templars ahead.
** Cassandra: Be cautious. They look well armed.
** Iron Bull: They look serious.
* (Approaching Glenmorgan Mine, if the Inquisitor sided with the templars)
** Inquisitor: Over there. Venatori.
** Varric: This bunch look tough. Watch your step.
* (When reinforcements arrive during High Stakes, if the Inquisitor sided with the mages)
** Inquisitor: Reinforcements!
** Dorian: More Templars. What would have happened if Corypheus hadn’t interfered?
** Cassandra: To think they swore themselves to the Maker's service.
* (When reinforcements arrive during High Stakes, if the Inquisitor sided with the templars)
** Inquisitor: Reinforcements!
** Cole: Venatori. Hungry, hateful ready to hurt people. And they're afraid. They should be.
=== Emerald Graves ===
* (After encountering Freemen)
** Inquisitor: More Freemen?
** Cole: This is where they’re strongest. 
* (Locating a letter for Before the Dawn)
** Inquisitor: A note. It claims this red lyrium’s not coming from the Deep Roads.
** Inquisitor: Another letter on the smugglers, referring to Samson.
** Inquisitor: Another letter mentioning Samson. And papers with names.
* (Entering Chateau d'Onterre)
** Inquisitor: Impressive place.
** Iron Bull: And quiet. Looks like it's been abandoned for a while.
** Cassandra: No guards, no staff. I suspect this place has been abandoned for some time.
** Cole: They're here, watching, waiting, wanting. Be careful.
* (Chateau d'Onterre, after a candelabra lights itself) 
** Inquisitor: More light. How cheery.
** Cole: It knows we're here.
* (Chateau d'Onterre, finding the dead looters)
** Inquisitor: From the look of their clothes, I'd say these men were looters.
** Cassandra: An abandoned chateau—it must have been appealing.
* (Chateau d'Onterre, finding Codex entry: Superstitions)
** Dorian: What fine reading material.
** Inquisitor: There are more books on magic—and how to contain it.
** Dorian: And every single one is filled with superstitious nonsense.
** Vivienne: Many of these tomes are complete fabrications. Charlatans preying on the fears of the ignorant.
* (Chateau d'Onterre, after killing the Arcane horror)
** Cole: Only the anger was left. We made it stop.
** Dorian: I believe we've put the worst of it to rest.
** Inquisitor: Perhaps now this place will be as quiet as it seemed.
* (Entering Villa Maurel)
** Inquisitor: The Freemen’s leader should be hold up here.
** Inquisitor: This place has seen better days. 
** Cassandra: These men are thugs. What do you expect?
** Dorian: The real owners must have left for the Winter Palace.
** Vivienne: (Laughs.) Do you expect cleanliness from a group of thugs, Inquisitor?
* (Villa Maurel, after reading a Red Templar note)
** Dorian: Red templars. Why not?
** Inquisitor: Seems we interrupted their meeting with the templars.
** Cole: They wanted something. It's still here.
** Iron Bull: They weren’t ready for us. Whatever they came for might still be here. 
** Cassandra: They weren't expecting us. Whatever they came for might still be here.
* (Villa Maurel, after finding Red lyrium)
** Inquisitor: Red lyrium.
** Cassandra: They must have been smuggling it for the templars.
** Iron Bull: They were smuggling for the templars.
** Inquisitor: Not anymore.
* (Villa Maurel, upon completing A Corrupt General)
** Inquisitor: That seems to be the last of them.
** Iron Bull: Looks like that was the man in charge.
** Cassandra: I'm guessing that was the man in charge.
** Inquisitor: We’ve struck a blow against the Freemen.
** Cole: They chose the wrong friends.
** Varric: From what we’ve heard, I’m not sorry to see him go.
** Sera: Good riddance to bad rubbish.
* (Villa Maurel, obtaining a key fragment for Safe Keeping) 
** Part of a key. There’s a rune inscribed on it. Or part of one.
* (Outside Din'an Hanin after completing Investigate Elven Ruins)
** Cassandra: Maker have mercy.
** Inquisitor: It's Taven's party.
** Sera: The one after elfy history? Figures. That's a bunch of dead all the way back.
** Iron Bull: Most of them are unarmed. Some don't even have defensive wounds. They were taken by surprise.
** Cassandra: Most were unarmed. They didn't stand a chance.
** Inquisitor: There should be Inquisition soldiers here.
* (Din'an Hanin, entrance) 
** These are our men.
* (Din'an Hanin, after killing the first group of enemies) 
** Search them. Maybe we can figure out what they were after.
* (Din'an Hanin, finding the first part of the Emerald Seal)
** Inquisitor: Corypheus's men had part of a seal. Do they even know what it opens?
** Vivienne: I doubt they care, so long as they can claim it.
* (Din'an Hanin, entering the tomb) 
** Inquisitor: This is it.
** Inquisitor: Whatever Taven hoped to find—it's here.
* (Din'an Hanin, finding Codex entry: The Death of Elandrin)
** Inquisitor: It's an account of Red Crossing. When the elves attacked that town, it prompted the Exalted March of the Dales.
** Sera: Pfft. Corifibutt thought this was something good, but it's just the same old rubbish.
** Sera: Give it to a Dalish or whatever. They'll pretend it was worth it.
** Inquisitor: Taven would want the Dalish to have this.
** Vivienne: This is Chantry history as much as Dalish. There are scholars who would appreciate the value of it.
** Cassandra: The Chantry would no doubt be interested in the account as well.
=== Emprise du Lion ===
* (By a formation of red lyrium)
** Inquisitor: These red lyrium growths are... warm.
::
* (On Judicael's Crossing)
** Dorian: That's a lot of bridge to destroy.
** Inquisitor: We might be able to rebuild this.
During Before the Dawn:
* (Upon reading Codex entry: New Orders) 
** I’ve found a letter. From Samson himself.
* (Upon reading Codex entry: Letter of Confirmation) 
** A note from Samson, about spreading red lyrium.
* (After gathering the information about Samson from the Sahrnia quarries and the smugglers)
** Inquisitor: We should inform Cullen that we’ve taken care of Samson’s red lyrium hoard.
** Cassandra: He will be pleased.
** Dorian: Our dear commander might crack a smile for once.
=== Exalted Plains ===
* (After fighting the Freemen near the initial camp, first time only)
** Inquisitor: Keep off the ramparts? I wonder why.
** Varric: I'd say it's a perfect reason to go to the ramparts.
** Dorian: I was never good at doing what other people wanted.
* (Approaching the Dalish camp) 
** Ah, the Dalish encampment.
* (Unlocking the operation Gain Access to Ghilan'nain's Grove) 
** Inquisition soldiers could clear this passage.
* (After locating a veilfire rune for Scattered Glyphs) 
** Looks like part of a larger set.
* (Completing Scattered Glyphs) 
** That looks like all of them. I’ll see what the researchers at Skyhold make of this.
* (Burning a body pit)
** Cassandra: There are so many. This was intentional.
** Inquisitor: There may be more of these pits. We'll have to find them.
* (Burning the final body pit) 
** That's the last of them.
=== Fallow Mire ===
* (Entering the water) 
** Careful! Disturbing the water draws them out.
* (After fighting the first undead) 
** This can't be all of them. There must be more further in.
* (Approaching a house)
** Inquisitor: Look. Signs of a plague.
** Dorian: A cheerful addition to any decent swamp.
** Dorian: At least in the city, you can find a decent healer. Out here you have, what? Roots and berries?
** Solas: It must have been a terrible illness. No one's come to reclaim the land.
** Solas: No one living, at any rate.
** Vivienne: I'd guess that the afflicted never made it far enough to spread the disease past this bog.
** Vivienne: It's fortunate. Waterborne diseases are often painful.
* (At the first brazier for Beacons in the Dark) 
** Is that a beacon of some sort?
* (After lighting the first brazier)
** Cassandra: The beacons seem to draw out the undead. We could use them to fight on dry land.
** Blackwall: We find any more beacons, we could lure the undead onto solid ground. Might be a faster fight.
** Iron Bull: We could use these, lure those corpses out of the mud and fight on solid ground.
** Inquisitor: Keep an eye out for more, then.
* (Completing Beacons in the Dark)
** Inquisitor: Good work. We have a path free of corpses back to the shore. 
** Iron Bull: Can't wait to use it.
** Blackwall: Sound strategy.
** Cassandra: The fewer of these creatures, the better. 
* (Near the Old Thoroughfare Camp)
** Inquisitor: No sign of the Avvar who want to challenge me. Or the Inquisition's soldiers.
** Cole: Everything around is afraid. And wet. I can't hear the soldiers.
** Sera: They'd better be fine. And the ones who took them, they won't be.
** Varric: I hope the Avvar haven't gotten bored with the hostages, and that they understand how hostages work.
* (Finding a body pit)
** Inquisitor: (Coughs.) Quite a smell.
** Sera: Ugh! They're all slimy.
** Cole: They died faster than the villagers could burn them. Then no one was left to burn.
** Varric: These people never had a chance.
* (Outside Hargrave Keep)
** Inquisitor: More undead!
** Blackwall: Don't waste time on them! Head for the castle!
** Iron Bull: Too many of them! Let's get to the castle!
** Cassandra: They're endless! Run for the castle!
=== Forbidden Oasis ===
* (After smashing through a wooden blockade) 
** We can cut through here.
* (By the doors of Solasan)
** Inquisitor: Something feels wrong here. It’s worse by the door. 
** Blackwall: I agree. Something's not right. 
** Cassandra: Indeed. I feel it as well.
** Cole: I'm afraid. It wants us to be afraid.
** Varric: Are we sure this is a good idea? 
* (Upon entering Solasan)
** Inquisitor: The feeling at the door - it’s gone now.
** Cassandra: The ill feeling by the entry - it's not present here. 
** Dorian: An enchantment designed to keep people out. A warning, or possibly a test.
** Iron Bull: Explains why the miners left this place alone.
** Solas: I believe it was a magical ward of sorts. A warning, perhaps, or a test.
** Vivienne: An enchantment to keep people out, perhaps.
* (After opening a sarcophagus for the first time)
** Cole: Did that hurt?
** Sera: What just happened?
** Varric: Are you all right?
::
::
:* Dorian: It went straight to you... or to the mark, perhaps? Doesn't seem to have harmed you.
:* Solas: The magic was drawn to you, possibly because of your mark. The effects were purely benign. 
:* Vivienne: Whatever magic rests here, it was drawn straight to you. It's left you unharmed.
:* Inquisitor: If it wasn’t a trap, what was it? 
:* Dorian: If the enchantment at the entry was a test, this may be the reward.
:* Solas: It may be a reward for those who prove themselves worthy.
:* Vivienne: Reward for completing a ritual, perhaps?
* (Completing A Prideful Place)
** Inquisitor: Is everyone all right?
** Dorian: Better than you'd expect. Bloody demons.
** Vivienne: Fine, dear. I do hope stirring such a creature was worth it.
=== Hinterlands ===
* (After killing the Fereldan Frostback)
** Inquisitor: Is everyone all right?
** Blackwall: I’m fine, but that first blast took a few hairs off my head.
** Cassandra: That last burst of flame nearly roasted us.
** Iron Bull: Never better! See the way everything lit up when it tried to fry us? (Laughs.) Now that is a fight!
** Sera: Yeah! I mean, yes. I'm alive. Really... alive.
* (Valammar - by the Lower Terrace, where the dawkspawn are coming through)
** Inquisitor: The darkspawn are coming up through here. 
** Solas: We must seal it off. 
* (Valammar - after reading ‘Notes on the Inquisition’) 
** They’ve been watching our movements.
=== Lost Temple of Dirthamen ===
* (Shortly before finding a dead explorer and the ‘Explorers in the Temple’ note)
** Inquisitor: Someone’s been here.
** Cassandra: And never left.
** Blackwall: Not for some time. The camp is abandoned.
** Iron Bull: I doubt they left all their stuff here out of charity.
* (Beginning Runes in the Lost Temple)
** Inquisitor: It's strange that I can understand that. 
** Solas: The secret of this temple have remained unspoken for too long. They wish to be known.
** Dorian: A spell of comprehension, perhaps? Amazing that it still functions.
** Vivienne: Ancient magic at work, allowing any who come to understand the secrets of this place.
* (Picking up one of the remains for God of Secrets)
** Inquisitor: It's as if the altar's waking up.
** Inquisitor: It's... warm. 
** Sera: Ugh. Why are you touching it?
** Cole: It's alive.
** Solas: It is alive because the creature connected to it is alive. It is but one piece of the whole.
** Dorian: All part of a ritual, I'd say. Whoever that belongs to, they're not dead. Not really.
** Vivienne: A form of blood magic. Organs kept whole and separate... as punishment, perhaps?
* (By the locked gate)
** Sera: Deep one, this. I wonder what it's hiding?
** Inquisitor: No way through this gate? Wonder what it’s made of.
* (The first time a veilfire torch goes out) 
** Aaand the torch goes out. 
* (Locating the second dead body of an explorer)
** Inquisitor: Another one of the explorers?
** Cole: He hid here. He died afraid.
** Sera: Died with his loot. That's stupid.
* (Looting the key from a corpse of an explorer)
** Inquisitor: Where could this key lead? 
** Cassandra: One of the passages back in the ritual area, perhaps?
** Iron Bull: Treasure room, if we're lucky. 
** Blackwall: I bet the poor fools never had a chance to use it.
** Inquisitor: Somewhere back in the ritual area, perhaps?
* (Using the key) 
** So this is where the key leads.
* (Activating the altar for God of Secrets) 
** The altar's absorbing the fire, "eating" the magic. 
* (After killing the The Highest One)
** Inquisitor: So that was the high priest of the temple.
** Vivienne: Filled with despair and imprisoned forever by his own followers.
** Solas: Imprisoned in silence and despair by his own followers. A sad legacy.
** Dorian: Rather sad, if you think about it.
=== Shrine of Dumat ===
During Before the Dawn:
* (Entering the shrine)
** Inquisitor: This place looks half destroyed.
** Cullen: Samson must have ordered his Templars to sack his headquarters so we couldn’t.
** Sera: Oh, pissy one. Wrecked his toys and left.
** Varric: Sorry, Curly. Someone tipped off Samson you were coming.
** Cullen: I think you’re right. Still, we’ve dealt Samson a blow.
* (Towards the end of the shrine)
** Inquisitor: This must have been Maddox’s room.
** Cullen: The fire couldn’t destroy these entirely. Whatever they are.
** Dorian: Those are lyrium-forging instruments. Of remarkable design. Intact, they'd be worth a fortune.
** Vivienne: I’ve seen similar implements for forging with lyrium. None this advanced. 
** Cullen: Tranquil often design their own tools. Dagna should be able to make sense of them.
** Cullen: If Maddox used these to make Samson's armor, she could use them to unmake it.
** Cullen: We have him.
During Under Her Skin:
* (Entering the shrine)
** Inquisitor: So this is the shrine Corypheus hid from Calpernia.
** Dorian: There are similar places in Tevinter. Notice how you feel it in the back of your mind.
** Dorian: There's power here—or was.
** Sera: Shrines are bad. Who here doesn't know that?
** Iron Bull: Seems deserted... but they always seem deserted.
** Blackwall: Let's hope he doesn't decide to visit while we're inside.
** Vivienne: A shrine to one of the Old Gods. Few still exist.
=== Skyhold ===
* (Entering the rotunda) 
** What was this place? So much room for... whatever was here?
* (Entering the gardens) 
** Fertile ground, even here. This hold has everything.
* (After completing A Greener Garden and choosing the herb garden upgrade) 
** A working nursery, with not a space wasted. We'll want for nothing.
* (Entering the Undercroft) 
** Better and better. What can't we do in a place like this?
* (Entering the Inquisitor's quarters) 
** They have certainly spared no expense.
* (In the large room next to the kitchens) 
** There's no end of it. I can store an army.
* (On the battlements) 
** Majestic. How was a place like this ever lost?
* (Upon reading ‘Vivienne’s alchemical notes’ for Bring Me the Heart of Snow White) 
** I can’t make heads or tails of this. Age regression? Who is this potion for?
* (After completing A Superior Tower and choosing the Templar upgrade) 
** A true templar hold. Now we're an Inquisition.
* (After completing A Better Courtyard and choosing the infirmary upgrade) 
** A place to save lives. What could be more important?
=== Storm Coast ===
* (Cleaning House, after finding the dead soldiers)
** Inquisitor: These must be the missing soldiers.
** Varric: Murdered. Shit.
** Solas: We should see that their families are notified.
* (Cleaning House, reading the notes near the dead soldiers)
** Inquisitor: Our men were murdered by a group called the Blades of Hessarian.
** Inquisitor: It seems there's a way to challenge their leader.
** Cassandra: Hessarian's blade is supposed to represent mercy, not random slaughter.
* (Cleaning House, examining the map near the dead soldiers) 
** It looks like the bandits are camped further along the beach.
* (Cleaning House, after killing the Hessarian leader while wearing Mercy's Crest)
** Inquisitor: It's done.
** Varric: Providing no one stabs you in the back on the way out.
* (Encountering darkspawn) 
** Darkspawn on the surface—I imagine Ferelden saw more than enough of them during the Blight.
* (Finding a sign of the Wardens during Wardens of the Coast)
** Inquisitor: The Wardens were here at some point.
** Solas: This camp was abandoned some time ago.
* (Finding another sign of the Wardens) 
** Inquisitor: This belonged to the Wardens.
** Inquisitor: Looks like several Wardens were traveling together.
* (Finding the last sign of the Wardens)

::
* (During Red Water, when first entering the area)
** Inquisitor: The Red Templars have dug in here.
** Blackwall: I'm ready. Let’s root them out.
** Cassandra: I'm certain King Alistair/Queen Anora would appreciate having them removed from Ferelden's shores.
** Iron Bull: All right. Let's do it.
* (Completing Red Water)
** Inquisitor: I believe we’ve broke the Templars’ hold here.
** Cassandra: There may yet be stragglers, but we've dashed whatever plans they might have had.
** Solas: Who knows what they might have accomplished had they remained.
** Vivienne: This locations offers easy access to the Waking Sea. Who knows what they might have accomplished had they been allowed to remain.
* (By the boat that takes you to Dragon Island) 
** This boat still looks seaworthy.

=== Val Royeaux ===
* (During Under Her Skin, on entering Vicinius' home)
** Inquisitor: What happened here?
** Cassandra: And where is the merchant we intended to meet?
** Blackwall: Where's the man we're meeting?
** Solas: It would appear someone reached the merchant before we did.
* (Picking up a letter in Vicinius' home)
** Inquisitor: It seems Vicinius angered Calpernia by sending her mistreated slaves.
** Sera: Probably weren't "pretty" enough.
** Dorian: Really? Most in Tevinter wouldn't bother to care.
** Inquisitor: She was paying a fortune for literate slaves.
** Solas: Curious, when she already has an army of Venatori.
** Solas: Unless these slaves were intended for a separate purpose.
** Vivienne: But she has the Venatori. Unless...
** Vivienne: Perhaps dear Calpernia has something she wishes to hide.
* (Picking up an invoice in Vicinius' home)
** Inquisitor: An invoice. For a shipment of slaves.
** Blackwall: Suddenly I'm less sorry he's dead.
** Inquisitor: Vicinius supplied them to the Venatori.
** Dorian: Vicinius was selling more than rose oil, then.
* (Finding Vicinius)
** Inquisitor: That must've been Vicinius.
** Solas: Unfortunately for him.
** Dorian: It seems the Venatori tired of following him.
** Inquisitor: Let's look around.
* (Finding a piece of the shattered crystal)
** Inquisitor: A shattered crystal? Let's find the pieces.
** Inquisitor: Here's another one.
** Inquisitor: The crystal's whole again, but... hold on...
* (After the recorded conversation plays)

=== Western Approach ===
* (Near the Giant's Staircase)
**Inquisitor: The Approach seems to be recovering from the old Blight.
**Vivienne: The desert is a result of the Blight.
**Vivienne: I do admit, the local fauna is abundant enough.
**Solas: Blights scar all they touch. To see wildlife thriving here…
**Solas: It is deeply unexpected.
*(After finding the smashed carts)
** Inquisitor: What happened here?
** Varric: Nobody should be out here but Grey Wardens. Something's very wrong.
** Cole: A long road, stumbling through the rocks, struck from behind.
** Sera: None of these poor sods had knives or shit. Who'd do this?
** Inquisitor: Whoever did this has a lot to answer for.
* (Locating a Chantry symbol for On the Chantry Trail)
** Inquisitor: A Chantry symbol out here? Odd.
** Inquisitor: The trail leads on...
** Inquisitor: The end must be nearby. 
* (Assaulting Griffon Wing Keep)
**Inquisitor: Shall we knock?
** Blackwall: It would be my pleasure.
** Iron Bull: Oh, yeah.
** Cassandra: Gladly.
** Cole: You knock louder than I do.
**Dorian: Don't keep them waiting, it's so impolite. 
**Solas: Be my guest.
**Varric: I think it's only polite.
* (After liberating Griffon Wing Keep and encountering darkspawn nearby)
** Inquisitor: Where did they come from?
** Varric: I'm not sure I want to know. 
** Cassandra: We need to find out.
* (Trying to open one of the locked gates from the wrong side) 
** That’s the grandmother of all locks. We’re not getting in here.
* (Approaching Death Drink Springs)
** Cole: The air hurts! I need to stop!
** Varric: It's no use! We can't cross here!
** Iron Bull: This isn't working, boss!
** Inquisitor: (When unlocking Find the Source of Darkspawn) The darkspawn got through. I'll have to see what our people at Skyhold can do.
** Inquisitor: (When unlocking Crossing the Sulphur Pits) Someone at Skyhold will have a solution.
* (Entering Coracavus) 
** Stay on guard.
* (Coracavus, after fighting the first darkspawn)
** Blackwall: Looks like the darkspawn are nesting here.
** Vivienne: What a useful insight.
** Inquisitor: This can't be all of them. 
** Inquisitor: There must be more further in.
** Iron Bull: I'm guessing there's more?
** Inquisitor: The darkspawn will have the run of this place.
** Sera: Never easy with you, is it?
* (Coracavus, after finding a note in the prison cells) 
** Inquisitor: So they were using the giant as a beast of burden.
** Cole: They're very strong and very angry.
** Vivienne: What a charming pet.
* (Coracavus, after fighting the darkspawn at the tunnel entrance) 
** We need to seal that tunnel.
* (Coracavus, at the darkspawn tunnel)
** Inquisitor: The darkspawn are coming up through here.
** Dorian: Someone should do something about that.
** Solas: We must seal it off.
* (Coracavus, after sealing the tunnel)
** Solas: That should keep the darkspawn at bay.
** Dorian: That should stop the darkspawn. These, anyway. I imagine there are a million more still underground.
** Vivienne: Knight-Captain Rylen should see fewer darkspawn now.
** Inquisitor: The tunnel was opened from the outside. Someone was digging here.
* (Coracavus, after the camera shakes) 
** What was that?
* (Coracavus, closer to the end of the ruin)
** Inquisitor: Venatori. They’ve been excavating. 
** Inquisitor: I take it breaking into darkspawn tunnels wasn’t part of the plan.
** Blackwall: If their plan is to be a thorn in our side, they’re doing just fine. 
** Iron Bull: They'll be holed up somewhere─if the darkspawn didn't get them.
* (Coracavus, after fighting the giant)
** Cassandra: Nothing's ever simple, is it?
** Blackwall: Not exactly the fight I was expecting when we got here.
** Blackwall: At least we got the job done.
** Iron Bull: 'Vints, darkspawn, a giant? This was a pretty good day!
** Inquisitor: The men here were laborers. Someone must have been coordinating their efforts.
** Inquisitor: I doubt they stuck around to fend off darkspawn.
* (Still Ruins, walking around the main chamber)
** Cole: So much fear. It's spread across everywhere.
** Iron Bull: You're shitting me. You're sure these demons aren't moving?
** Inquisitor: Everything's... frozen. I don’t think this was the Venatori. 
** Dorian: No. I’d say some ancient Tevinter decided to alter time. I’m surprised it didn’t go better.
** Vivienne: The power required for such a spell would be immense.
** Inquisitor: That would get the Venatori's attention.
* (Still Ruins, examining the frozen demons) 
** Nothing’s happening. The magic here is interfering with the Anchor. 
* (Still Ruins, after killing for Lucanus and picking up the stone for The Heart of the Still Ruins)
** Inquisitor: He was carrying this stone for a reason. 
** Dorian: The markings on it... I’ve heard of keystones that bear the same. 
** Inquisitor: Keep searching. There may be more.
* (Still Ruins, after opening the locked door from The Heart of the Still Ruins and seeing Tempest)
** Inquisitor: A staff? Is this what they were after?
** Dorian: I’d be careful with that if I were you. Just a thought.
** Sera: Don't go poking. The whole place feels wrong.
* (Still Ruins, after removing Tempest)
** Inquisitor: Careful!
** Dorian/Vivienne: (Gasps.)
** Inquisitor: I think time's flowing again. 
** Cole: It's all free.
** Varric: That’s not what I wanted to hear.
** Sera: I said don't go poking! Ugh!
* (Still Ruins, approaching the reactivated fade rift)
** Iron Bull: Craaaaaap.
** Inquisitor: Hurry, before this gets worse!
** Sera: It's already worse! Just kill them!
** Cole: This isn't worse?
* (Still Ruins, after sealing the fade rift)
** Inquisitor: (Sighs.) It’s done.
** Dorian: Well, I’m rather sick of this place. You?
** Cassandra: Someone would have freed the demons eventually. At least we were here to stop them.
** Iron Bull: Next time, the damn demons can stay frozen.
=== Winter Palace ===
During Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts:
* (Servant’s Quarters, when finding the dead elves)
** Inquisitor: Must be the elves Briala’s people are looking for.
** Sera: Whoever did this oughta be down here somewhere.
* (Servant’s Quarters, in the courtyard after killing the Venatori) 
** The Venatori were watching the approach. They’re organized.
== The Descent DLC ==
=== Location comments ===
* (Descending into the Deep Roads)
** Iron Bull: So, the Deep Roads. Do you think there'll be tight spaces? Long hallways with low ceilings?
** Inquisitor: Possibly, why?
** Iron Bull: Just hoping my horns fit.
** Dorian: Is it just me or is this the slowest lift ever constructed?
** Inquisitor: It's better than climbing down.
** Dorian: I could do with some music. Something with a flute?
** Cole: Palms calloused, clutching, clawing when the dust came.
** Inquisitor: The miners.
** Vivienne: Lowered into a hole. What an auspicious start.
** Inquisitor: We´ve been in worse places.
** Vivienne: Perhaps you have, my dear.
* (During Killing Me Softly, finding a page for Codex entry: Kolg's Journal)
** Inquisitor: This belonged to an exiled dwarf. He was experimenting with raw lyrium.
** Inquisitor: More on the lyrium experiments. Looks like his results were inconclusive.
* (Finding Kolg's last journal page) 
** So that's how the lyrium experiments ended.
* (On Broken Knees, finding the map) 
** This Grey Warden had a map. Could be important.
* (Behind the third sacrificial gate) 
** A lost caravan. It may have been down here for centuries. I wonder if anything's left.
* (After looting a chest behind the third sacrificial gate) 
** These goods are amazingly well preserved.
* (Entering the Forgotten Caverns)
** Dorian: I don't mean to alarm anyone, but I believe we've all gone blind.
** Cole: It's wrong here. Too many whispers. The song is wrong. Chords cut to silence.
** Valta: We've gone past the Deep Roads.
** Inquisitor: How can you tell? It's pitch black.
** Valta: I can feel it.
* (Approaching a bridge)
** Valta: There's something... strange on the other side. I can feel it...
** Inquisitor: Watch your step.
* (Entering the Bastion of the Pure)
** Varric: Guess who just became the wealthiest dwarf in the Merchant's guild!
** Dorian: Look at that. Like stars at night.
** Valta: All these lyrium veins. And they're completely untapped.
** Inquisitor: The Sha-Brytol must mine lyrium somewhere—their weapons and armour are laced with it.
** Valta: Unless they've found another way to harness it.
* (After killing a Cretahl)
** Valta: These creatures aren't deepstalkers. What do they eat to survive?
** Inquisitor: Probably best not to think about that too much.
* (Destroying the first barrier)
** Valta: This weapon of theirs cut through the barrier, but was destroyed in the effort.
** Inquisitor: Let's keep gathering their weapons. There may be more barriers ahead.
* (After the second barrier)
** Valta: Nothing like these dwarves is mentioned anywhere in the memories.
** Valta: If I had been prepared... Renn might still be alive.
::
::
::
* (Entering The Wellspring)
** Valta: Did the Sha-Brytol build all this?
** Inquisitor: Or was it here before them?
* (Fighting Sha-Brytol in the Wellspring) 
::
::
* (Finding Codex entry: The Nug King) 
** Why is this here? Perhaps there's a use for it.
* (Finding the waystone to the Nug King) 
** Words are carved into the stone: "Only those who believe may cross." Subtle.
* (After crossing the bridge to the Nug King) 
** Glad that worked. The alternative would have been messy.
* (Approaching the Nug King's altar) 
** An altar... for offerings?
* (The Nug King)
** Nug King: (Squeaks judgementally.)
** Inquisitor: Are... are you putting me on trial?
** Nug King: (Squeaks affirmatively.)
** Inquisitor: (Squeaks deferentially.)
** Nug King: (Squeaks regally.)
** Inquisitor: I'm feeling very... judged.
== Jaws of Hakkon DLC ==
=== Location comments ===
* (After the first battle with the Hakkonites)
** Blackwall: The Jaws of Hakkon knew you. What do they have against the Inquisition?
** Inquisitor: Perhaps the friendlier Avvar in the village Harding mentioned can shed some light.
* (During A Father's Name, after killing the first of the fade-touched creatures)
** Inquisitor: That was one of the creatures the hunter mentioned.
** Dorian: Fascinating. I suspect it came into contact with the Fade.
* (During A Father's Name, after killing the final fade-touched creature)
** Inquisitor: That should be enough for the offering.
** Iron Bull: No one said a gift to the hold had to include everyone. Could be a gift for someone's son.
** Vivienne: We've been permitted to bend tradition. It may be best to tread carefully.
* (During The Nox Morta, after collecting the chewed bait)
** Inquisitor: This... whatever this is, it must be what d'Amortisan wanted.
** Iron Bull: Looks like something tried to eat it.
* (During The Nox Morta, at the final location) 
** D'Amortisan said to place the bait here. We need to find a good spot.
* (After killing the Nox Morta) 
** D'Amortisan will want to hear about this.
* (Finding the first trail marker during Up and Away)
** Inquisitor: There's a lot of loose stones here. And an Avvar axe.
** Iron Bull: Someone left it on purpose - a trail marker.
** Inquisitor: The woman at the beach said her cousin Runa went climbing. Maybe this is where she began.
* (Finding another trail marker) 
** There. Another trail marker.
* (Finding another trail marker) 
** I think our mountain climber was here.
* (During It Remains to be Seen, finding a skull)
** Vivienne: Delightful. The Jaws of Hakkon are using these bones in a warding spell.
** Inquisitor: It could be blood magic. Let's look for any more skulls.
* (Finding the last skull)
** Inquisitor: I think that's the last of the bones. What were the Jaws of Hakkon doing with this magic?
** Inquisitor: Perhaps the Avvar in Stone-Bear Hold can tell us.
* (During In Exile, at the ritual site)
** Inquisitor: This is the place the augur said that mage, Sigrid, tried and failed to release her spirit.
** Inquisitor: It looks like the tools for her ritual are still here.
* (Examining the scorch mark)
** Inquisitor: Scorch marks. Left by magic?
** Vivienne: Aetheric feedback. It happens from time to time if one stops a spell mid-incantation.
** Inquisitor: Inquisitor: Maybe Sigrid never completed this ritual.
* (At marks in the grass)
** Inquisitor: The grass is trampled down here. A fight?
** Iron Bull: No, see the hoof-prints? Just an animal passing through.
** Inquisitor: Probably not important then.
* (Finding the vial of lyrium)
** Inquisitor: A vial of lyrium.
** Vivienne: An inexperienced mage might use up a good deal of energy banishing a spirit.
** Inquisitor: Then why is the vial still full?
* (Finding the ritual offerings)
** Inquisitor: A skinned bird, and a... (Sniffs.) ...bundle of incense?
** Iron Bull: Ritual offerings. But if this mage did the ritual, why are the offerings still here?
** Inquisitor: Good question.
* (During The Loss of a Friend)
** Inquisitor: Orders for Grandin.
** Iron Bull: Looks like he survived the fight with the Hakkonites. Won't get far on his own, though.
* (Coming across some burned bodies)
** Inquisitor: These were Hakkonites.
** Vivienne: One of our soldiers has been through here. That dagger bears the Inquisition's crest.
** Dorian: Someone's cut their way through these Hakkon warriors.
** Dorian: I can't decide if it's impressive or disconcerting.
* (Finding Scout Grandin)
** Inquisitor: The Inquisition scout. Grandin?
** Vivienne: Be cautious. Something feels wrong.
