A few days or so ago I came across a spoiler about Solas and Dragon Age 4. It was huge but not detailed. He will apparently be the villain, as far as I understood the text my eyes swept past for half a second. 

Now, with both Ender and Evynne I’ve only gotten through Adamant and a while after. So I truly don’t know how this is going to end, nor have I been ready to find out the few times I’ve decided to go to the War Room to start the “What Pride Had Wrought” mission. I always go back and focus more on the plentiful sidemissions and to continue putting together the cutscene episodes. Which means I have to go back and replay several scenes in the right clothes and/or hairstyles and/or makeup.

I was not terribly surprised to learn this spoiler about Solas. He’s been... fishy sometimes. Like Blackwall, except not remotely like Blackwall cause Blackwall is in your face all the time about the fact that he’s hiding something and it seems pretty darn clear what that something is going to be. I will be shocked if I’m wrong about it. But I hope I will be. At least about part of it. 

So. Let’s talk about this moment with Solas. 

It took me a while (an embarrasingly long one but oh well) to realize why this moment bothered me. 

And then it clicked while putting it into the cutscene episodes. 

“An enemy can attack but only an ally can betray you. SPEAKING OF WHICH, YOU SHOULD READY YOURSELF.” 

He’s telling me an ally is going to betray me. Cause Corypheus - a name we still haven’t learned in this moment, remember - is certainly no ally. 

Right? 

We know the Elder One is an enemy. 

...RIGhT???

But Solas is saying... the Elder One is an ally? 

Does this mean Corypheus is not actually the Elder One? 

Does that mean SOLAS is the fucking Elder One?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Goddammit I’m not sure I want to find out. I both want and don’t want this to be true. I love Solas so much. If this, or something like it is true, it’s gonna destroy me. And I know, thanks to that spoiler, I am going to be destroyed. Not sure if it’s because this theory turns out to be the case, or something else happens to make that spoiler happen.
