The Landsmeet

Redcliffe
The Landsmeet is proposed by Arl Eamon of Redcliffe as a way to deal with Loghain's treachery, by putting him up against a vote of his peers.

Queen Anora
Upon arriving in Denerim for the Landsmeet you are informed by Queen Anora's handmaid, that the Queen is being held captive by Arl Howe in his estate in Denerim. She requests your assistance in freeing her.

Arl of Denerim Estate
This Estate is far more than just the place where Anora is held captive. It is in fact the only place to gain supporters against Loghain (outside of the Alienage) and is therefore the only thing that will ensure you win the Landsmeet.

You have to sneak into the Arl's estate by procuring guard uniforms (which you will automatically change into once you have them). ''Note: You cannot have Shale in your active party during this quest. If you do, before you move to sneaking into the Estate, Anora's handmaiden will request Shale be replaced. ''Once you reach Anora's door, you will find that a mage has put up a forcefield on the door. You need to find the mage, who Anora says will likely be with Arl Howe, to disengage the forcefield.

The Dungeon's
As you make your way through the Arl's dungeon, you will come across many people imprisoned there. One of whom is part of a Chantry Board quest. Release everyone, but ensure that you get their support against Loghain at the Landsmeet. The one individual who's support you can immediately obtain is the arrogant Arl's son (you'll remember him if you played the City Elf origin story - release him no matter how tempting it is to leave him in there!). You will also release another Arl's son from torture. You will be given a ring by one man and asked to give it to his sister.

Once you finally find Howe and take him down, return upstairs to Anora's room. Anora's response isn't one you want to hear when you're about to decide who to give the crown to. If you tell the officers that you were releasing Anora, be prepared, she will turn on you. As Arl Eamon said, be careful how much trust you place in her.

Battle with Loghain's First
Although this battle is beatable, it's nearly impossible and really not worth attempting. You will fall and any Grey Warden's in the battle will be sent to Fort Drakon.

See Fort Drakon for information on the release/escape.

After for Drakon
Once you have escaped or been released from Fort Drakon, you have the chance to make good on getting people to side against Loghain. Everyone you need to find who has had a son/brother imprisoned, can be found at the Gnawed Nobel Tavern. Give the sister the ring if you want her support. If you do not give her the ring, you will lose her support at the Landsmeet.

The Alienage
When you do the quest at the Alienage, make sure you pick up the 'Slave Papers' and then show them to Arl Eamon.

The Landsmeet Decision
It is possible to win the Landsmeet, but you cannot use evidence or expect support if you have not followed through. If Arl Eamon was not shown the Slave Papers, you cannot use this in your defense. At no point during your negotiations should you ever say anything about "Having left King Cailian to die". This will gain you negative approval points in the Landsmeet. If you have followed through, gained support and set out your points according to those accusations you can support, you will win the Landsmeet. Again though, expect Anora to turn on you...big surprise.

Once the Landsmeet decision has been reached, regardless of whether or not you are victorious, a fight will break out with Loghain. It will eventually be stopped and a duel will be suggested. You can choose anyone to be the Champion, though the most satisfied at the prospect will be Alistair.

If you do not choose Alistair, you will be given the chance to show Loghain mercy with interesting consequences. No spoiler given.

The Heir to the Throne
You can either attempt to persuade Anora and Alistair to marry (provided if Loghain was killed you were the killer and not Loghain), put Anora on the throne or put Alistair on the throne. Alistair may be upset, but you will not lose many points with him. If you are a human noble and female, you can propose that you and Alistair rule the throne together. If you should spare Anora being executed, she will admit that she would not have shown such mercy to Alistair.
