Or death, of course. The world swallowed up forever by the Blight, a final vengeance that devours everything in horror and corruption, and what little remnant of Elgar'nan that remains, to rule over it. Until he too is eaten, at the last...

"Beleth is mortal. I never intended to fall in love— in truth, I have done everything in my power to separate us. But she is...Utterly indomitable," He says. Despite himself, Solas can feel the unwilling tenderness come into him at the thought of her. Soft, Dread Wolf, you've gone soft, "I do not believe I can survive watching her die. So I must succeed."
