It Remains to be Seen is a side quest from the Jaws of Hakkon DLC for Dragon Age: Inquisition.

The Jaws of Hakkon have used human bones in some sort of magic ritual. Learning more about this magic could offer insight into their intent.

Acquisition[]

Automatically obtained upon finding an artifact in the Swamp Kuldsdotten area located in the middle of Frostback Basin.

Walkthrough[]

Collect five enchanted skulls scattered around the swamp. Head to the Stone-Bear Hold to speak to the Augur about the skulls. He will offer additional information on the magic that Jaws of Hakkon are using, but requests that the Inquisitor first familiarize themselves with Avvar magic by examining the veilfire runes around the hold.

Light the veilfire in the Augur's hut and head to the northern part of the hold, where Gyda Myrdotten prepares the bodies. There are three veilfire runes which reveal more information about an Avvar ritual, unlocking respective codex entries. Return to the Augur to discuss what was seen.

Notes[]

  • When handing in the quest, the Augur will ask the Inquisitor what they thought the purpose of the tale in the runes was for. Answering correctly with the first dialogue option (Renewal?) will yield 2 points for Guests of the Hold, otherwise only one is obtained.
  • It may be confusing as to where to find the Augur, head for the stretch of houses that are above the wall that warriors were climbing up during the Lady's test.
  • It is possible to start this quest in the middle, by carrying a veilfire torch from elsewhere in the Frostback Basin to the northern part of the hold where Gyda Myrdotten prepared the bodies, and reading the three runes. From there, the quest can be completed by speaking to the Augur, without having to find any of the skulls.
  • The triangular cages do not disappear when a skull is obtained, but rather will go dark, which can help track which ones have already been claimed. This will be easier to see after the area switches from day to night.
