King Cailan

King Cailan Theirin inherited a Ferelden at peace, and it frustrated him immensely. His father, beloved King Maric, had become a legend in his own lifetime, defeating the Orlesians to gain independence for the nation. To Cailan, that was the proper role of a king–rallying people against a common enemy. But he also believed his father’s success had deprived him of the opportunity for greatness–Cailan’s Ferelden was cursed by stability.

And so it was that young King Cailan, hungry for glory and eager to emulate the ancient legends, committed the armies of Ferelden to face the darkspawn at the earliest sign of the Blight. He took counsel from Grey Wardens, and bolstered his forces with foreign troops, even inviting soldiers from hated Orlais. This angered many who had served under Maric, but Cailan had no interest in their quaint national prejudices; the darkspawn and their archdemon master–these were threats worthy of a soon-to-be legendary king.

Whatever the reasons, Cailan and the Grey Wardens stood for Ferelden against the darkspawn. It should have been a decisive victory, but they were abandoned to face the horde alone.

Return to fallen Ostagar, discover the fate of a king, and reveal the true cost of betrayal.
