Kintsugi Plays Dragon Age: Inquisition (There Are No Therapists)

Anyway, everything of interest seems to have been explored now. To the chantry!


Chancellor Roderick can go take a long walk through a short rift.

Me, apparently.

Let's try to leave out the whole "burned alive" part though, k?

Inside the chantry, I find a couple of codices, some doors I figure I'll explore through later, and:

Jerkdude! Just his voice so far, but it's still just as punchable as the rest of him.

Wondering how they fit an entire shield into this pot is way more interesting than anything he could possibly have to say.

Especially since I'm not worried that he'll get his way as long as Cass has my back.

What Qunari? Where?


And with that, I locate the door behind which all this jerkery is taking place.

 

walk into the club like what up I got a big Mark

Who died and made you- oh.

Cassandra Pentaghast is Done With Your Shit. Leliana is fast approaching Done With Your Shit.

Isn't there one of those heavily-agglutinated German words that means "a face badly in need of a fist"?


Look at her. Look at that gorgeous iridescent scale. Look at that sash and scarf. Look at those stud-knuckled gloves.
Um. Anyway.

>_?

 

>1

 

>I did what I could.

I'm glad you like near-death experiences, Cass.

I'm going to try to get a shot of this asshole where he's not sneering, but this may be foredoomed to failure.

Wait, what?

On the one hand, I still think it was all done from the Fade.
On the other hand, I like where she's going with this.

JUMPING TO DEFENSIVENESS AWFULLY QUICK, AIN'T'CHA?
No, but seriously... on the one hand, pressing hard on a specific other suspect makes sense for a traitor to do. On the other hand, he's so hateable and so obvious that it makes me think he's a red herring. Unless that's what Bioware wants me to think...
...I'll move on before I get caught in a Vizzini spiral.

 

...okay, I give up on my screenshot quest.

Haven't you been paying attention? Divine intervention, bitches!

See? The Seeker knows what's up.

Emotional reaction time! I'm not entirely sure what the icon in this cap stands for, but 1 has a thumbs up, which I'm guessing is the "buying into this" option; 4 has the "confused" head-spiral; 5 has the "prickly" pauldrons-guy; and 6 has the "angry" fist.

>_?

 

>1. Are you sure?

(The word you were looking for is "Backpfeifengesicht" which technically means "face in serious need of slapping" but it's close enough. And he really truly has one.)
1

 

(I think the head with !?! in it is, like... "What!?!")

 

>Are you sure?

I can't believe a deity like you would notice me! *blushu~*

Sigh, okay, fine, game. "Qunari" it is.

I'm one of the idiots that lives in it, is that it?

At this point Cassandra, having had Enough Of His Shit, aggressively THUNKs a bigass book down on the table.

She should really be more careful with her books. At least she didn't stick a knife in this one.

 

She hasn't hit ANYONE in the face with ANYTHING yet, including Varric with books! Astounding. :D

Also, it is irritating that they made it damn clear that a Qunari is someone who follows the Qun, and then.. everyone just keeps referring to Adaar as a Qunari, even Adaar. #0k

 

That is a really long writ. Just how longwinded are these Chantry types?

*dramatically swelling music*

I couldn't get a really good cap of this bit, but she jabs her finger in Jerkface's chest and gets right up in his space. She is so done. I love her so much.

He walks away without saying anything more. I choose to believe that he doesn't want to tempt one of us to provide his face with that fist.

 

^Leliana

^still Leliana. Are we going to need a Right Hand Man?

^Cassandra.

>Investigate >You want a holy war.

Kind of aggressive, and they don't really react to that, but then I suspect this particular dialogue is for the benefit of players who have very different historical associations with words like "Inquisition".

Fair enough, I guess.

 

>Investigate >And if I refuse?

But it's going to be a really short game and I'm not sure why you're even playing it in that case.

Also a good point, though I am pretty confident in Wren's ability to beat down any few dozen vengeful hicks you care to name.

Also my entire company is dead, that's going to be a problem. Might as well get used to being a prophet.

 

>Investigate >"The Inquisition of old?"


Well, that sounds about right for our situation.


You may notice that the "What about the Chantry?" option is new, and it has an icon I haven't seen before. It may be just an extension of the Investigate that I just did, or it might be a fourth option unlocked by asking that question, so I wanted to put it out there for you guys.

>_?

Those are usually new questions you can ask after asking other questions, yeah.

 

Yep, that's what it was.

>What about the Chantry?

Hey! Do I condescend to you guys when everyone keeps calling me a Qunari? No, I do not. So maybe cut the non-Andrastian in the room a little slack!

We were just confused about the difference between Chantry-as-religion and Chantry-as-organization, is all.

>_?

>I want to help.

I keep trying to get these one-shots of Leliana talking to not look weird around the mouth but it's just not happening. Or am I the only one bothered and I should just stop worrying?

In assent, Wren gives Cass the Firm Handclasp of Respect Between Badasses...

...and then it's time for a MONTAGE!
