Dragon Age II Quests

Companions: The Long Road

Once you've completed Blackpowder Courtesy, Aveline wishes to speak with you about a little matter involving Donnic. She needs something delivered to the dashing guardsman, but he mustn't know it's from her. If you agree to help her pursue this love interest, you will be put up to the task of being her messanger. Deliver the Copper Marigolds to Guardsman Donnic, not too far from your current position, and then return to Aveline with Donnic's reaction.

Disappointed by her own brilliantly muddled love message to Donnic, Aveline places legitimate business in your hand this time and sends you off to observe Donnic's reaction once more. Aveline's infatuation with Donnic has driven her towards more unconventional courtship methods and after much deliberation the party helps decide that The Hanged Man is the ideal place where Aveline can confess her undying love. Knowing her history with Wesley, you should probably console her with a sensitive air whenever she lashes out against herself.

Aveline, the warrior, has no trouble slaying mounds upon mounds of Hurlocks at her feet, but the woman in her cowers at the mere sight of Donnic, the object of her complete infatuation. The awkward, long drawn out moments of silence in The Hanged Man should get a chuckle and perhaps even make you take pity upon her woeful attempt at a love confession.

Head toward the Signal Fire on the coast, where the party is beset by a pack of Mabari hounds. Follow the waypoint marker to a few more Signal Fires while being aware of existing traps along the path, fight off some enemies, and witness the painfully awkward sequence at each. One Slaver Mage will rear his head in one of the enemy groups and become the only hitch in this otherwise harmless ride through the coast.

Return to Viscount's Keep afterward to speak with the love-stricken captain.
