Of course. It was a unique place. There were mosaics and statues to all of our gods, instead of just one god. Usually an elven ruin is a temple or a shrine devoted to one. I have a couple theories about why, like either it was more convenient to worship all the gods together in one location, or maybe the elves of the Dales brought the worship to one location to keep encroaching humans from interfering. Without more information, I can't say.
There were puzzles in the ruin. A series of floor tiles you had to step on in the right order, and a bunch of levers you had to pull. But that opened up a locked room and, well, we had to fight some walking corpses and a Revenant, but after that, we found a clue that could lead to an important elven artifact of the Dales -- the Sulevin Blade.
Not yet. I've been researching the clues and I'm on the right trail. I now have help from one of Sister Nightingale's scouts as well, and we're making progress. Once I know where they lead, I can tell you about it.
[ She inhales a breath on pure surprise. Leliana had said the Inquisition couldn't help Ellana with this financially until she gave them more to go on. Clues and assumptions weren't enough. ]
Oh, ser... are you quite sure? That would be-- I would love any help you'd be willing to give!
