Spoilers: "Bloodbath Quest" pictures under the read more.
Before it all, here's one of my coolest Lucanis (Spite) pictures yet. A shame the subtitles got in the way.
I really enjoyed this quest. Fighting a boss in a pool of blood was oddly epic, it was a pretty good setting for a fight. Especially if you play as a mage and imagine how tempting it must be for them to juuuustt use what's already so available, so ready, so much... better and faster.
Regardless. It's pretty obvious Illario is betraying the family and trying to pull some strings. The fact Zara called him "amatus" is proof enough.
However, that was my only qualm with this quest. I am playing a Tevinter elf. My elf speaks the language, he should know she was about to say "amatus", he should have had some dialogue about that. Oh well, one can just pretend he and Lucanis didn't quite get the word. It was an intense moment after all.
Anyway here's some piss poor pictures of the boss fight area plus some more Spite, Illario and Zara.
The fight itself was mid. Not the best in the game by far. The setting though? Easily one of my favourites, but I might be biased.
