Ah, I knew I could count on you to fact-check for me.
Broadly speaking, some of this stuff is possibly an error on the Wiki: it lists Blackwall's name as 'Thom', for example, and that Sera quote was copy-pasted from the quotes page. The thing about Solas speaking in iambic pentameter is also from the Wiki and I'm devastated to learn it isn't true. (But not as devastated as I am that you ruined my Tevinter-being-involved-in-vallaslin joke DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG IT TOOK ME TO COME UP WITH THAT).
90% of the misspellings are my own, though, and 50% of those are things I meant to go back and edit and forgot to, so uh, thanks for that.
The description of lyrium as a mineral-like lifeform was taken from the Wiki, because I honestly have no idea how to describe it. On reflection, possibly organic material might be more apt. I just like the idea of lyrium being a lifeform because it makes it the ultimate answer in a game of "Animal, Vegetable, or Mineral". Surprise, it's all three! I like the idea of it being the blood of whatever the Stone is, though. Something something insert a joke about mages being vampires here.
I am also amused and slightly afraid by how much elven lore you seem to know.
And uh congrats on reading the entire post, I guess?
