Something that is extremely consistent throughout inquisition is that the tears in the fade are HURTING spirits. Spirit society, like mortal society, has adapted to having the veil present and just like mortal society it is being thrown into chaos by its weakening.

Something that is consistent throughout trespasser and the media between trespasser and veilguard is that taking down the veil would have harmed everyone and destroyed society as we know it, at the very least killing most (if not all) humans, dwarves and qunari (who have no less of a right to exist than the elves).

He says as much in trespasser, and then never denies it when called out. It’s always “do you truly believe that is my plan” and “I had plans to minimise the damage”, never an explicit “no, that would not happen”. He tells the inquisitor that tearing down the veil will destroy the world and then never denies it when asked, he just stops being so open about it. This is a man who uses careful wording so that he can say he rarely lies, what he doesn’t say is deeply significant.

The veil going up initially hurt people, but the world has since adapted and is now in a state where tearing it down would cause more damage for no reason. The veil being put up hurt elven society because they had buildings that relied on both places, but they no longer have that. Nobody is being actively hurt by the veil being up, bringing it down would just destroy everything to get a world that is different but not inherently better.

But Solas regrets putting it up. Solas wishes he didn’t put it up. He wants to take it down, not because it is actively hurting anyone, but because he feels bad about it. It’s something he regrets, something he wishes he hadn’t done, and taking it down will placate his conscience. And all the consequences can be justified under “i feel sad about it but it had to be done” even though it didn’t ever have to be done. This is how he has justified every crime before.

🏳️‍⚧️ Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

Hello, Happy Pride Month to you too kababyan 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

I was trying to find the very thing you were asking for but I couldn't it. It was a DND/RPG type of deal (not Sinauna), and I saw it a few months ago 😭

I have some creators I want to suggest un the meantime! They focus on pre-colonial history, and I've gotten great resources from them on researching those (they are queer/trans as well):

Nahia Lloren

Riverandcaiman

For more mainstream entertainment, here's a sapphic movie that came out recently:

I Fell, It's Fine - A wellness resort owner meets an otherworldly woman and finds healing.

I haven't watched yet because it's a bit difficult to find somewhere I can watch Filipino movies. I'm sharing because the actresses were in the first mainstream GL (The Rich Man's Daughter) back in 2015, and it was a big deal. I helped do captions for it!

If you're an LGBT Pinoy use this post to promo! If it's your own creative projects, your account, anything you want to share!

Local Heavens by Kris M Fajardo - Gatsby retelling in a cyberpunk setting where Nick is bisexual and Filipino-American hacker and Gatsby is a technocract billionaire

Mistress of Lies by KM Enright - Daughter of a disgraced Blood Worker (blood mage) kills her own dad to protect her brother and enact her revenge. Things get complicated though when a magical serial killer is out on the loose. F/M/M poly romance.

The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jimenez - Two warriors shepherd an ancient god across a broken land to end the tyrannical reign of a royal family (i havent read this yet but ive heard so many good things about it + my friend has read and he liked it a lot)
