And each was promised Power and glory beyond all reckoning If they would only come to the feet of the gods and ask. And so they joined in secret, telling none Who were not of the temples of their designs. And in Minrathous, in the heart of the Archon a sliver of fear grew, Stabbing like a wound. Though he knew not why. —Silence 1:1-1:17, Dissonant Verse

They'll be featured in some Fade/flashback scenes later on in my fanfic 'Nothing but ambition where hearts once beat' so I decided to come up with some fun designs for these 7 bastards ♡

I was definitely going for that "you're playing with the big boys now" vibe from Prince of Egypt, lmao.

I haven’t seen anyone else talking about it but something just occurred to me.

I wondered why Elgar’nan and Ghilan’nain were the only Evanuris to escape the fade. There is a line of dialogue somewhere that explains that the other Evanuris were dead, and they were the final two to survive.

We know that in order to kill the gods, we must first kill their bonded Archdemon to render them mortal.

It only occurred to me on my second playthrough that the reason for the other Evanuris’s deaths is because of the Grey Wardens.

Five blights ended and five archdemons slain, leaving only Razikale and Lusacan alive and waiting. Each one of those previous archdemons was tethered to an elven god, and when they were killed, that rendered the gods mortal.

So what I think happened next was that they either died of old age, loss of power, or they succumbed to the blight that was trapped in the fade prison with them.

Codex Entry: Elgar'nan Rescues Adhlea from the Dread Wolf A painted mural inside a ruined temple once dedicated to Elgar'nan. Note from Bellara: I heard about this myth. Apparently she was a handmaiden or was it priestess? Handmaiden. Hmm? The ancient elvhen can be hard to translate...maybe it's consort - ugh, gross. It doesn't matter. The myth was that Fen'harel kidnapped her and Elgar'nan rescued her. I have a feeling it was more of a rescue on Solas' part than Elgar'nan's...sheesh. [Added note from Taash: Nice butt though.]
