dragon-age-inquisition

Some point fairly early on in Haven you can approach Leliana while she is ordering an assassination of an old friend of hers, someone who is a traitor to the inquisition. You can enforce the death order, persuade otherwise or remain silent. What are the long term effects in each case?

Best Answer

There aren't terribly direct consequences to this conversation with Leliana, nor does she have an approval rating like the combat followers. However, towards the end of the game

You get to help influence the choice of the new Divine, and Leliana is one of the candidates. If she does end up elected to the position, your choices while interacting with her will influence how the epilogue describes her reign. She may become a caring Divine who urges for unity, or a vicious and deadly Divine, described as having blood run through the halls of the Grand Cathedral.
