The contrast between Broodmother, and the fertility to produce an army of soldiers forced against her will, vs the anvil, and the inability to create any manmade life, so it must be stolen. Both are being used for such a twisted purpose, war, slavery, and the exploitation of women and men. The act of creation itself corrupted and done through force, while he true act of creation being based in love and motherhood.
"No mere smith, however skilled, has the power to create life"
Not to mention, Broodmother is entirely organic, as it is, opposite the anvil. The anvil can claim creation, but it is really transmutation. Broodmother can claim creation, but even Hespith calls it the darkspawn *remaking Laryn in their image*
Its just such a good trope that I've never seen in horror, and they make such good foils of each other one immediately after the other, how both darkspawn and greed corrupt even the most holy and well-intentioned acts. It makes sense when you consider the darkspawn are the Golden City's reflection of man's sins.

rena • avror – 21 yo – they/them – main is @nikysavi
Welcome to my Dragon Age oriented side blog!
I've finished DAO as a Mahariel, right now I'm replaying as a Cousland. I've played Awakening too
I've also finished DA2 (I think it's my fav for now) and I've just started DAI
Alistair is my favourite companion and I'm not normal about him.
My fav parties are quite typical😅 DAO: Alistair, Wynne, Shale, DA:A: Anders, Hathaniel Howe, Justice, DA2: Fenris, Anders, Sebastian
I also really like my first Hero of Ferelden, Ursinha Mahariel, so I like talking about them too
I don't think I'll ever play DA:V because my PC doesn't meet minimal requirements, and I don't typically enjoy watching other people play. I won't say it definitely, but, for now, when I talk about DA, I don't account what was in DA:V. Spoilers are fine by me though
I wanna meet people to talk to about DA so if you also wanna talk – feel free to write me a comment or send me an ask!
