In this part we traveled to the tower of mages because they were one of three groups obliged to help us defeat the darkspawn...

Before that we spoke with Shale and it proved that it is worthy be our companion.It probably genuinely believes that Guts is better than other humans but even if it was not completely serious when praising us it's humor is aprechiated. To tell the truth I like most companions in this game.

Once we got to the circle of magi we found out that the tower is seemingly lost. Templars who guarded the mages were incompetent and now the tower was full of demons, abominations and blood mages. Leader of templars asked his higher ups for the right to destroy the tower along with any survivors mages. Guts had a better idea- we will clear the tower of demons and abominations and the templars can watch how professionals do their job. Leader of the templars agreed and let us inside the tower. Here we met one with my least favorite companions- Wynne. This old hag thinks that she knows everything better than everyone else and keeps sticking her nose into other people's business. But I must admit that she is a great healer. So the party of Guts, Morrigan, Leliana and Wynne did an awesome job destroying all evil creatures who dared  to stand in our way. This job seemed to be almost too simple...

But finally we met a worthy opponent. A demon of Sloth.

With just a few words this creature was able to send us into the Fade (dream world).

Not only we were sent to a different realm but we also were separated from our companions. This means that for the first time since very beginning of the game Guts is on his own and can only rely on himself and his sword. Next time we will wander through the Fade and try to find our companions. After that we will find this Sloth demon and will make him regret what he has done. He may have won a first battle but we will win the war.
