Feynriel is trapped in his nightmares, and it's up to Hawke to not only free him from the demons who seek his power, but to guide him on the path to his destiny. Will Sylvia's companions be able to resist the temptations awaiting them in the Fade?
@iOnlySignIn I got the idea from several sources: 1. Zevran talks about how he once wanted to join the Dalish, but was severely dissappointed. He also says everyone laughed at him for wanting such a pointless thing. 2. I can't imagine the city elves would want much to do with a people who think they are no longer elvhen. 3. look at the city elf origin story. Its clear they have entirelly different rituals and customs, as well as their own Hahrens, rather than Keepers.
@Mavander I was confused at first about the second "lost magic" until i realised that (and the game does a bad job of getting this across) Hawke and co. are actually PHYSICALLY in the Fade, which is kinda impossible.... so, go Marethari!
@cvrc11 No, you see, Anders is... something. He's not just a mage but not fully an abomination. Feynriel practically RULES over the fade. If being made tranquil is severing the connection a mage has with the Fade, then perhaps Feynriel could restore that connection pernamently. After all the demon does mention "two lost magics in one day", meaning that Feynriel is capable of more than Anders.
...though then again, what did he mean by the second one? Fenris' markings?
@asherinka Sorry, but this posts a spoiler from the book, and I need to screen the comment (as per my policy on spoilers). I appreciate your interest in this discussion, and I'd suggest continuing it in PMs. :)
@cvrc11 Where did you get the idea that City Elves "like to think they've cut loose from their past"? Marathari visits the Alienage not as a political authority, but as a cultural figure. As such her welcome is very fitting IMO.
The city elves basically "worshipping" Marethari is intereting. I guess that, even though they like to think they've cut loose from their past, they really haven't. Who knows how even Varric, the most surfac-y (oh god) dwarf ever, would react if he saw a living Paragon walking down the street. It's kinda the same thing.
I love Torpor's meh response towards your answer. He's all "Whatever, die now" XD

The first one is the Marethari's ritual that sent Hawke & Co into the Fade. The second one is Feynriel.
