Through the years since, even post-Exalted Council and rumours of an elven rebellion mounting in Tevinter, Celene has helmed the ship of state alone.

Briala

I wondered if Celene might have passed on her lessons in the bardic arts. All the better to avenge my parents. Briala grew up the child of elven servants to the Valmont family. Her parents were proud to work for Grand Duke Reynaud , and worked hard to protect their position in the household as well as ensure Briala's own future within it. Her parents were able players of the Game : Briala's father taught her to avoid eye contact to observe others without being noticed [1] while her mother taught her the rudiments of the Orlesian politics as well as pride in her worth as a city elf. When Briala was a child, her mother had another elven servant accused of theft to ensure that Briala, rather than the servant's daughter, would be Princess Celene's personal handmaid. Celene was ten at the time. Briala's mother instructed her daughter to be very careful, obey the other girl in everything, and become her friend. Six years after becoming the princess's handmaiden, Briala consoled Celene when her parents were killed and her uncle Duke Prosper de Montfort was called away by the emperor, helping her to advance in the Game and becoming her confidante. She would prepare Celene for balls, badgering other servants into revealing what other ladies were wearing to help give her an edge.

Michel later discovers that the Keeper briala bound a demon named Imshael in an attempt to unlock the Eluvianswhich the ancient elves used for transportation over long distances, briala.

Here you dive into a well-designed thicket of political intrigue at a masquerade ball-cum-peace conference between Celene and her foe in the Orlesian Civil War, Grand Duke Gaspard, who seeks the throne for himself. A third party is also triangulating at the ball from the perch of a grand balcony, Ambassador Briala who speaks for the Elven rebels who had been harrying both sides in the civil war. Yet so much more is going on behind all these wicked eyes, as you quickly learn that Briala and the Empress have no small amount of history. As you collect rumours and gossip from the prattling guests at the Winter Palace, you also learn that she and Celene were once lovers. Briala, for her part, is shocked that Celene kept the token, which she had long ago gifted to Celene in honour of her coronation, but her thoughts immediately turned to how impolitic and un-strategic it was for her to keep it.

This is one of two main quests that triggers following the fall of Haven and the Inquisition's relocation to Skyhold, and it follows the plot the Herald uncovers in either Champions of the Just or In Hushed Whispers to assassinate Empress Celene and throw Orlais into chaos. Unlike many of the more straightforward main story quests, Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts doesn't focus its attention on battling enemies. Instead, players spend most of their time playing politics and uncovering several plots by Celene, her cousin Gaspard who claims the throne is his, and Briala, Celene's jilted Elven lover and former advisor. Players will need to decide who to side with in the fight for the throne and throw the Inquisition's support and manpower behind one of these three key players. What makes this quest interesting, in addition to its focus on discovering secrets and snooping around the Winter Palace, is that there is no clear right answer. In fact, the quest could end in one of five different ways, with different benefits and consequences for each.

She activates the eluvians without telling anyone else the control phrase " Fen'Harel enansal" - the Dread Wolf's Blessing and keeps the keystone for herself. Both women, after all, saw the world from ten thousand feet; both were master strategists who were not above sacrificing what they saw as pawns on a grand board. The Iron Bull Greatly disapproves of you supporting Gaspard. Briala will continue to wield a great deal of power and influence over the throne in secret, thanks to the leverage the Inquisitor has given her. Celene and Briala knew of this and turned a blind eye with the hope that Gaspard would be lured into making a politically foolish move. Already have a WordPress. Never finding the Dalish except for Felassan, who professed to be one yet provided little insight into their ways, [1] she spent the next years plotting Lady Mantillon's death to avenge her parents. In this case, the Inquisition can decide Gaspard would be a better ruler for Orlais with a fairer claim to the throne. With no leverage to protect her, the monarch of Orlais will execute Briala for her treason or if Celene is still alive and Gaspard was sentenced to death for his treason, then Celene can be persuaded to spare Briala's life and she will instead be exiled from Orlais. After surviving a Varterral attack, Gaspard and Michel agree to duel for control of the keystone and Orlais.

Varric No approval change. The bodies of servants litter the floors of her ancestral home, and left alone, Celene copes with the gravity of what she has done. Cross With You. Players earn court approval by turning in secrets from eavesdropping and blackmail they find to Leliana, tossing Caprice Coins into the fountain in the garden, and playing The Game, Orlesian politics, properly in their responses to NPCs. Yet so much more is going on behind all these wicked eyes, as you quickly learn that Briala and the Empress have no small amount of history. Give credit to Briala by choosing the "Briala helped stop Florianne" option , and use the blackmail evidence against Gaspard, before requesting that Briala be rewarded by choosing "What about Briala's reward? The duel goes poorly for Ser Michel initially, because Lienne de Montsimmard and Mihris, who allowed herself to be possessed by Imshael, are secretly hexing him. Briala visits the Winter Palace on "important matters of state" the day after the opening ceremonies for the Exalted Council, after which Celene had retired to her chambers for the duration of the talks. What the crowd did not see was the blood that trailed behind both women as they held hands in the dark. As you collect rumours and gossip from the prattling guests at the Winter Palace, you also learn that she and Celene were once lovers.
