An Errant Letter is an Act 1 secondary quest in Dragon Age II.
Contents
Acquisition[]
Kill the abomination at Arthuris's Private Dock during the quest Wayward Son, then loot Olivia's Letter to Thrask to acquire this quest.
Walkthrough[]
Give the letter to Thrask in the Gallows Courtyard. Hawke can blackmail him, or tell him that his secret is safe.
Result[]
If Hawke blackmails Thrask:
Anders: rivalry (+5)- Aveline: rivalry (+10)
- Carver: rivalry (+5)
Fenris: friendship (+10)- Merrill: rivalry (+5) ( no change)
- Varric: rivalry (+5)
- Thrask's demeanor will be different when he is encountered during the quest Act of Mercy.
If Thrask is assured that his secret is safe:
- Anders: friendship (+5)
- Aveline: friendship (+5)
- Bethany: friendship (+5) ( no change)
- Fenris: rivalry (+10)
- Merrill: friendship (+10)
- Varric: friendship (+5)
Rewards[]
- If Thrask is blackmailed: 2
- Otherwise: 250 XP
Bugs[]
- Sometimes Olivia's letter doesn't drop, especially if a mage has the Death Syphon ability enabled. Her corpse may immediately disappear after the mage gains vitality from it, leaving nothing behind. It may happen without a mage too. This can be fixed by either reloading a previous save, or using this mod to add the letter manually. The letter's item ID code is mag111im_thrask_letter. Upon using the console command, the letter is added as a codex entry and the quest appears in Hawke's secondary quests list.
