Thinking about the little Crossroads adventures during Solas's rebellion and also about the Lyrium Dagger, and sort of mulling over timelines and what happens why and when:

I think they can be a bit hard to place, timeline-wise, which is understandable given that the rebellion took place over the span of at least a thousand years or whatever . The Ghilan'nain one is obviously near the early stages of the rebellion, Pre-Ghilly Godhood and thus Pre-Mythal Murder.

The Disruption Spirit/Citadel Assault one though is interesting because I think it's after Mythal's murder. And though it isn't stated outright, I'm pretty sure the relic Solas is trying to retrieve is the Lyrium Dagger. He says it has the power to imprison a god, and that the Evanuris "overreached", so I think it's meant to be implied that it's the dagger. Solas is also especially vicious here, which could just be depicting his descent into being an overly pragmatic leader but I also think it's plausibly him acting rashly and cruelly out of recent grief. It's interesting too how shocked Felassan is, so if this is near the tail end of the rebellion then Solas was more noble in his actions for longer than I initially expected.

The timeline/ownership of the dagger I'm pretty sure is roughly:

Mythal tasks Solas with making it ->

Mythal + the other Evanuris or Mythal + Solas use the dagger to dice the Titans dreams (I know Solas creates it but I'm unsure if it specifies who actually physically uses it to do the deed. I kinda assume the Evanuris+Mythal, since they have it after to mercc her with.) ->

The dagger remains in the possession of the Evanuris and/or Mythal (I would assume the other Evanuris, given what it does next) ->

The Evanuris murder Mythal with the dagger when she confronts them about the Blight ->

Solas assaults Elgar'nan's Citadel with Disruption Spirits while his sneaky peeps steal the dagger back ->

Solas takes the fragment of Mythal that clung to the dagger from it, and squirrels her away in a section of the Crossroads ->

Solas uses the dagger in the ritual he devised to seal away the Evanuris ->

???? Lyrium Idol ->

Veilguard and stuff

It's interesting to me to think that for most of his rebellion, which seems to have also been a fair portion of his pre-veil, body-having life given how quickly (relatively) the Evanuris decide to call themselves Gods, he actually doesn't seem to have been in possession of the Lyrium Dagger. It's the "Wolf's Fang", but between making it and using it to imprison the Evanuris it doesn't sound like he actually owned it. I wonder how long a time span it was between reacquiring it and the Veil ritual, for it to gain that moniker 🤔

Also the fact that nobody seems to be calling for this extremely powerful and dangerous artifact, which like its creator has done basically nothing but cause problems since it was brought into being, to be destroyed or locked away at the end of Veilguard is wild to me. The genocide knife is a menace.
