  • Bellara: Here it comes again!
  • Davrin: Out of the way!
  • Harding: Duck!

Rook: (Grunts)

Rook: And the Shadow Dragons demand you shut it!Rook: Not with Shadow Dragons at our backs!

  • Bellara: Have you seen any people? I hope everyone’s all right!
  • Davrin: No one else in the streets! That’s good!
  • Harding: I hope the people found shelter in time!

Rook: The Shadow Dragons must have gotten them to safety!


  • Bellara: Oh, no, oh no, oh no!
  • Davrin: Incoming!
  • Harding: Keep moving!

Rook: Okay, let’s hope the Shadow Dragons have the lay of the land.

Maevaris: Never doubt it, Rook.

Rook: Good to hear.


Maevaris: Tarquin and the others have the Venatori isolated.

Rook: And the dragon?

Maevaris: The Venatori prepared a ritual to call it. We don’t know how far they got.


Maevaris: Get going, Rook. Knowing Tarquin, he’s probably getting antsy.

Maevaris: Pick your team and join Tarquin. The rest of us will keep the Venatori away.


Writer notes: Rook: Talk among the team about dragons and Venatori. Also probably popcorn fights on way down.


Shadow Dragon Rook: Tarquin: We really kicked the hive, Rook. The Venatori aren’t going to make this easy.

Rook: Suggestions?

Tarquin: Jump in and kick harder. And get ready to stare down a dragon. We’re not letting the cult hand it over to the gods.


Tarquin: You ready to jump in, Rook?


  • Tarquin: We’re keeping them scattered! And we’re going to kill their toy when it arrives!
  • Tarquin: Keep up the assault! We can take this from them!
  • Tarquin: Get ready, Rook! Dragon’s on its way!
  • Tarquin: Rook! We have a problem! The dragon! Dumat’s breath, what have they done?

Venatori Commander: The beast comes! It will serve!


Lucanis: Blight was unexpected. What should we do?


Venatori: You cannot withstand her! She is a divine instrument!


Tarquin: Keep up the assault! We can take this from them!


Rook: We still good, Tarquin?

Tarquin: No! But if it was going to be easy, we wouldn’t need you!


Shadow Dragon RookNon-Shadow Dragon Rook
Tarquin: The Shadow Dragons will give us some guidance! Get this right, and you drive that thing off and keep the city safe!

Rook: And if we get it wrong?

Tarquin: Won’t live long enough to regret it!
Tarquin: All right, Rook! Watch the Shadow Dragons, they’ll give direction! Get it right, take it down—and the city’s safe!

Rook: And if we get it wrong?

Tarquin: Regret’s only for the living!

  • Tarquin: You can’t hurt it! Focus on the cultists!
  • Tarquin: The dragon’s too strong to fight—we have to drive it off!
  • Tarquin: It can’t be hurt! Break the cult’s control!
  • Tarquin: No use fighting it! We have to drive it away!
  • Tarquin: It can’t be hurt! Break the cult’s control!
  • Tarquin: Got a problem here, but you can still fix it!
  • Tarquin: They’re rallying! Keep at it!
  • Tarquin: Just a small setback—you can recover!
  • Tarquin: We’re with you! Give it another shot!
  • Tarquin: Keep at it! You can try again!
  • Tarquin: Keep going! You’re on the right track!
  • Tarquin: That’s the way!
  • Tarquin: You’re doing it right!
  • Tarquin: It’s going well!
  • Tarquin: You got this!
  • Tarquin: You’re tearing it up!
  • Tarquin: The Venatori can’t believe you’re a match for it!
  • Tarquin: You’re beating it!
  • Tarquin: This is the fight we needed to see!

  • Dragon invulnerable (?) Rook: We got it! She feels that!

  • Dragon not invulnerable (?) Rook: Come on! How do we keep it here?


Grey Warden RookNon-Grey Warden Rook
Rook: The blight I feel in her is so… wrong!

Davrin: It feels so strong. The gods will control her eventually.
Davrin: The blight I feel in her is so wrong.

Rook: That screech. What the gods did to her is just unnatural.

  • Bellara: She’s going to be a problem in the future.
  • Harding: There’s no way she’s gone for good.
  • Lucanis: She’s going to be a problem in future.
  • Neve: She’s going to be a problem in the future.

Rook: We need someone who knows dragons. Rook: We need someone who knows dragons. Who can keep it in reach.

Rook: Come on, let’s check in with Maevaris and Tarquin.


Maevaris: Over here, Rook! Maevaris: Rook, this way!


Rook: Elgar’nan wasn’t getting his way and he didn’t want to waste a dragon. Coward.


Maevaris: Just head back the way you came. We’ll see you safely back to your Lighthouse.

Shadow Dragon RookNon-Shadow Dragon Rook
Tarquin: Well done, Shadow Dragon. Makes me wish you’d never left to hunt down that elf. We could use more of you around here.Tarquin: That was impressive, Rook. Gallus was right about you.

Tarquin: The Viper enjoyed causing chaos among the Venatori. Maybe a little too much.

Rook: I didn’t see the Viper.

Tarquin: He enjoys that, too. Also a little too much.

Tarquin: Another time, Rook.
