This also hints towards even deeper conflicts, exploring various elements not explicitly addressed and creating tension amongst viewers.

This storyline involves exploring various factions within the Dragon Age setting; from the Lords of Fortune to the Grey Wardens. Each of those provides different family names tied into series lore.
