A Spirit in the Lake is a side quest in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
A storyteller mentioned a spirit in a nearby lake. If offered a blood lotus, the spirit apparently gives a favor in return.
Acquisition[]
Speak to the Storyteller near the fast travel marker located in Redcliffe Village, and ask about its history. She will tell the story of a spirit of valor encountered in a nearby lake.
Note: Redcliffe Village cannot be entered until the Threat Remains is completed.
Walkthrough[]
Head to Lake Luthias, located southwest of the Crossroads. The lake itself is south of the Upper Lake Inquisition Camp.
Interact with a bowl situated on a small pier near the northeast corner of the small island, to complete the quest. A Blood Lotus will be removed from the players inventory and will be replaced with the 
Warlord Greatsword and a 
Belt of Urgency.
Rewards[]
- 44 XP
- Influence 40
Notes[]
- Acquiring the Belt of Urgency requires having the Trespasser DLC installed.
- There are multiple Blood Lotus nodes located around the lake, allowing for the quest to be easily completed.
- The simplicity of the task can be a good place to find a good weapon for early levels of the game.
Trivia[]
- This is a reference to one of the tales of how King Arthur got his iconic sword, "Excalibur", which is "The Lady in the Lake".
