Eluvian

An eluvian - Elvish for "seeing glass" - is a magical mirror.

Significance

The elves of Arlathan left no roads to travel between their cities. Instead, they used these enchanted mirrors to communicate and travel from great distances, using a type of magic different from that of the modern Circle of Magi or even the Tevinter Imperium.
Eventually, many eluvians were destroyed. An unknown number of eluvians have survived to the present day, scattered across Thedas in forgotten or well-hidden locations, but they seemingly stopped functioning or became corrupted, capable of spreading the darkspawn taint. It was assumed that their use was lost after the fall of Arlathan.
After the defeat of the Qunari plot in 9:44 Dragon, the eluvian network was revealed to be under control of Fen'Harel.
