Alliances: Getting Things Moving is a war table operation in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
Acquisition
Available after completing either Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts or Here Lies the Abyss.
Operation text
Many of the nobility of the Orlesian capital have settled their secondary differences and are rallying behind two families. The desRosiers are old money, well respected but viewed as traditional and stubborn. The Thibaults rose with a popular merchant consortium and are considered new money and progressive. While the intent of both families was to rival us politically, if we declare for one of them, we may manipulate events in our favor. Lord Pierren desRosier has not asked for our allegiance, but may respect our rising might. Lady Velise Thibault speaks for her investors and is interested in forward-thinking alliances.
Advisor suggestions
Josephine - 3:00:00
I can draw a number of agreements that tie us to little beyond ceremony. That will gain the initial interest of the Thibaults.
Leliana - N/A
Not participating in this mission.
Cullen - 2:24:00
We certainly have the forces. That is a simple demonstration to make to the desRosiers.
Results
Josephine
I will not turn my back on them, but we have established agreements with the Thibaults. Their initial hatred of the Inquisition was a device, and they are willing to have us in their favor. Josephine
Cullen
While I do not trust them, we have at least gained the interest of the desRosiers. Their initial declarations against us seem to have fallen by the wayside as more traditional deciders of power have come into play. Cullen
