Session One | Arrival at Vir-Anaris

In 9:44 Dragon, Karl, Juliana, and Erik were each recruited by an elven warrior named Nela . She found each of them in uncertain circumstances, telling them that she had been sent to recruit them. She had been sent to bring them to her leader, and after each agreed to travel with her, she led them through an ornate, magical mirror.
This mirror led them to an underground network of caverns, which Nela informed them was Vir-Anaris, the headquarters of her organization. When they had all arrived, she brought them to meet with her leader, an elven apostate by the name of Solas .
Solas explained to them all that he was gathering groups of skilled individuals to address a threat rising in Thedas, the kind of threat that cannot be dealt with by high-ranking organizations like The Inquisition . There is a group Solas has become aware of, a group that is working to raise another archdemon and start another Blight across Thedas. The members of this group are scattered throughout Thedas, entrenched in some of the highest tiers of society, and they need to be stopped - but first, they must be found.
Solas thinks that each member of the party has something unique that they can bring to this effort, something they are keeping secret - or not so secret, depending on the party member - that will aid in the efforts to root out this organization and bring them down before they are successful in starting another Blight. But first, they must prove that they can work together as a team, and as such, Solas is dispatching them to Orlais.
As they were speaking with Solas, Juliana brought up the concern about how Solas knew so much about them, and how he found them at all. It was about that same moment when Juliana noticed the carvings on the wall, depicting the elven god Fen'Harel . While it hasn't yet been confirmed that Solas is, in fact, the elven god Fen'Harel, he certainly is receiving a great deal of reverence from the abundance of elves in Vir-Anaris.
