He asks Rhys Dragon Age: Asunder the killings and claims that other mages professed ignorance on the matter. Rhys retells the rumors that there were between five and twelve victims, including a farm boy Dragon Age: Asunder died in a cell screaming, other initiates and apprentice Jolen. Then Lambert inquires him about senior enchanter Jeannot, implying that the murderer must have also used blood magic, as all six actual victims were stabbed and allowed to bleed out.

Chapter 4 A year ago Rhys first noticed Cole. Adrian was unable to see him, but Rhys did not sense him as a Dragon Age: Asunder. Then Rhys learned of the rumors about the ghost and went to the Pit. When Rhys found him there, Cole stated that he didn't know how he'd got out of the cell and why he was invisible, and that those who saw him would forget about it. He begged Rhys not to tell the Dragon Age: Asunder. Rhys kept coming back, but with increased scrutiny on mages the visits became infrequent. At their last meeting a month ago Cole was questioning if he was not dead. Now, Cole doesn't deny that he is the killer. He mentions that he saw Jeannot conspiring with other mages in the crypt. Cole describes feeling like sinking in the darkness and claims Dragon Age: Asunder he knew the victims would see him and when they die, he feels important for them and therefore real. Rhys tries to make Cole come with him, but Cole runs away, with a dagger in his hand. Rhys chases after him, casting spells. Evangeline discovers Rhys missing. She and Edmonde unlock the dwarven door to the phylactery chamber. Huge pillars in it are lined with glowing crimson vials and encircled by a metal staircase. Evangeline takes Rhys's phylactery. She notices that the blood's glow intensifies as she walks down the Dragon Age: Asunder. She warns dungeon guards and descends into the templar crypts, led by the sounds of a battle. There she finds Rhys with his staff ready for an attack. He shows no resistance, but refuses to tell what is going on. Evangeline knocks Rhys unconscious. She sees no one else around. As she leaves with Rhys over her shoulder, she feels that she is being watched. Chapter 5 Rhys is in a cold dark cell, his hands manacled. He has lost track of time and is starving and almost delirious. Earlier Evangeline asked questions, but he remained silent. A templar tells Rhys that he is released. After four days in custody everything feels Dragon Age: Asunder. Rhys is given new clothes, food and a bath. Several hundred mages have gathered in the great hall. Adrian tells that when Dragon Age: Asunder went missing a group of mages raised a ruckus. In a conversation with other Libertarians, Rhys is asked if he will stand with them. Before he can answer all mages are urged to take seats. Edmonde has little to Dragon Age: Asunder. Then Wynne arrives. She is not welcome: she led the College of Enchanters to vote against independence prior to its closure. Wynne speaks about the dangers of magic and advises the mages to be patient. Rhys objects that it's easy when Wynne has more freedoms than any of them. Other mages leap from their chairs and start to argue. The templars make everyone leave the hall. Rhys is asked to see Lambert. Adrian enters the office with him. They see Lambert, Evangeline and Wynne. To Adrian's astonishment Rhys calls Wynne mother. Lambert informs Dragon Age: Asunder Rhys was let out of the cell upon her request. Wynne explains that her Tranquil friend researched demons and became an abomination. She asks Rhys, a spirit medium, to go to the Western Approach to help her friend. She tells that another friend had introduced her to Dragon Age: Asunder Divine, who then gave a written permission to do what Wynne sees fit. Rhys agrees, hoping to gain knowledge about Cole's curse in order to prove his innocence. Since the ritual requires three mages, Adrian also joins the venture. Lambert orders Evangeline to accompany the mages. Chapter 6 Cole is desperate to talk to Rhys, but fear keeps him at distance. He overhears that Rhys is leaving and follows the templar who was in the crypt to learn more. He recalls sitting in front of Rhys's cell hesitant to speak. Cole slips into Evangeline's room. Then Lambert knocks on the door. He doesn't see Cole but feels something Dragon Age: Asunder wrong. He gives Evangeline three phylacteries and orders her to kill the mages should they discover that the Rite of Tranquility can be reversed.

To prove his innocence, Rhys reluctantly embarks on a journey into the western wastelands that will not only reveal much more than he bargained for but change the fate of his fellow mages forever. It was an unpleasant thought, one Cole had turned over and over again in his mind. There were many such hidden corners in the great tower, places where mages went to escape from the suspicious eyes of watching templars, and Cole knew them all. Cole knew far less about the mages themselves.
