furthermore, consider:
city elf warden in dao, taking an acorn of their vhenadahl to keep with them, in case they die away from home.
same effect with mahariel when they leave their clan. except, presumably, they use the seed they were given to plant in honour of tamlen instead when he shows up. but not actually planted over his grave. bc they would probably have to cremate the body, since the blight in his corpse would be infectious otherwise. they would feel so normal about this.
lavellan doing this during inquisition, or after trespasser, bc they're either on the "yikes the anchor is about to kill me it seems 😐" or "welp, either i stop solas or die trying 👍" mindset. many variously depressing ways that interacts with clan lavellan being alive or not, too.
solas not doing this, despite his dinan'shiral stuff, bc, there are literally 0 trees left from wherever he considers home. whole species probably went extinct with the veil going up 👍
do you think instead of "devil's advocate" as a concept for the dalish, they call it something like "wolf's advocate"
#dragon age meta#[holding up da elves like a potato] i just think they're neat#i have still not resolved the problem of elf original sin but at least i'm having fun with extremely minor headcanons 🫡#i think i might need like a physical flowchart and sticky notes for the elf original sin removal... literal pepe silvia board#i would be So curious how any of the bioware writers would respond if politely asked#“hey... didn't you say the elves were jewish/roma/indigenous inspired before? why are they now responsible for all evil by existing?”#“if their gods are all Evil™ do they have to all just mass convert or become atheists after vg? isn't that kind of sad?”#“isn't the blood theft also a really standard antisemitic conspiracy theory? can you explain your thought process for this lore? :)”#and see what happens#they already got “i can excuse being nb but i draw the line at immigrants” so i am morbidly fascinated by what else they are unaware of 😭#the taash thing is genuinely wack bc i know like. 4 people irl who would fall under “openly nb and of a mixed cultural background”#and i barely even know that many people... do they not go outside in edmonton. it's a fairly large and diverse city i thought😭😭😭
