You begin with preparations where you have to convince the First Warden of the Darkspawn threat. If you manage to convince him, you start preparing the fort (making further use of a good location, getting to see it before it's blighted). 🏰

The First Warden is fully fleshed out, and you strategize with him to properly prepare the Wardens. The Dragon Trap is brought up, but dismissed by the First Warden as being a waste of time, since an attack on the fort is unlikely.

Rook might decide to work on it in secret: Not on their own though! He's contacted by the local Blacksmith, who has had his ear to the ground and he isn’t so sure there won’t be an attack. You're given a choice to help him. You're also introduced to his daughter. Together you go into the fort where the mechanism for the trap is located. The blacksmith looks at the trap while you guard his back. He tells you it might work if certain requirements are met. Elbow grease will be required. 🔧

You help several Wardens, merchants, and farmers prepare for what is to come. During the battle, depending on how well you’ve prepared, they could either survive or die (this includes the Blacksmith and his daughter). If they survive and perform well, they could become valuable assets further down the line.

You learn of an entrance into the Deep Roads that needs to be sealed. You get help from some of the Wardens you’ve gotten to know, their plan is to set off explosives, preventing the Darkspawn easy access to some of the lower level of the fort.

It’s here you and your companions learn what The Calling is—if you don’t already know. The Wardens you’ve accompanied reveal that this is a one-way trip for them. Once the explosives go off, they’ll be locked in with the Darkspawn. They thank you for helping them reach their destination before you head back to the surface. As you get a safe distance away, a deafening boom echoes from where you left. You and your companion are given a chance to discuss what The Calling means for Davrin (and possibly Rook). 💥

During the final battle, you notice odd changes in the First Warden, and you fully realize it’s The Calling (there has also been hints before this). Depending on your relationship, he might listen to you and what you have to say, or he might not. This could be a difficult moment if you’ve grown to trust each other. 💀/🌱

You either save the day with low casualties or there is a massacre, which could affect your relationship with Davrin.

Well, that's as far as I've gotten anyway. 😛
