'''On Ameridan's Trail''' is a [[Main quests (Inquisition)|main quest]] from the ''[[Jaws of Hakkon]]'' [[Downloadable content (Inquisition)|DLC]] for ''[[Dragon Age: Inquisition]]''.

{{Blockquote|''The wards on the wall have been disabled but the wall is still guarded by the [[Jaws of Hakkon (faction)|Hakkonites]]''}}

== Acquisition ==
Available on completion of the [[Main quests (Inquisition)|main quest]] [[What Yet Lingers]] and speaking to Thane [[Svarah Sun-Hair]].

== Walkthrough ==
[[File:DAI JawsOfHakkon Puzzle.png|alt=|thumb|200x200px|The pattern for unlocking both doors.]]
* Follow the river and look for spires
* Follow the spire path to an ancient ruin
* Clear Hakkonites from the ruin.
* Wait for [[Lace Harding|Harding]] and [[Bram Kenric|Kenric]] to arrive.
* Investigate the area.
There is a pattern by a switch in the courtyard. If you start at the opposite side from the switch and number them like a numberpad, 1 being upper left, 9 being lower right, the first pattern is 2 -> 6 -> 8 -> 5 -> 4. That opens the door to the right of the entrance. Then immediately go 1 -> 5 -> 7 -> 3 -> 9, which opens the door on the left. The switch resets the floor pattern if you made a mistake crossing the stones. Don't reset after doing the even ones, the middle needs to stay lit for the odd numbers in order to complete it.
* Find a way to take down the barrier. (There is veilfire on the battlements. Get veilfire, carry it to the barrier. An option appears to dispel the barrier. Dispel it.)
* Explore the chamber.
* Look for more clues. (Two runes inside the cavern found using veil fire.)
* Activate a trail marker. (Starting with the lever you get to by following the planks on the left of the stairs, halfway around the square.  Then pull the one at the top of the stairs.)
* Light all the trail markers. (Each one is another lever you pull that points to the next lever.)
* The quest completes upon activating the last lever.

== Results ==
* Unlocks the [[Main quests (Inquisition)|main quest]] [[Ameridan's End]].

== Approval ==
'''Bram Kenric:''' They erased the Canticle of Shartan. They must have done the same to Telana.

* "That's normal." - Cassandra {{Approval3|Slightly Disapproves}}

== Companion quotes ==
Upon activating the first trail marker outside of Razikale's Reach, a [[Warrior (Inquisition)|warrior]] companion will question if the trail markers will succeed in removing the wall of ice. Cassandra takes priority over Bull, who takes priority over Blackwall. If no warrior companions are present in the party, the Inquisitor will ask instead. 

Afterwards, a [[Mage (Inquisition)|mage]] companion in the party will comment that the trail-markers are still functional, if present. Solas takes priority over Vivienne, who takes priority over Dorian. 

Finally, regardless if the mage dialogue is triggered, a [[Rogue (Inquisition)|rogue]] companion will remark that the wall itself will still present an issue. Sera takes priority over Varric, who takes priority over Cole. 

* '''Cassandra:''' Are we certain these trail markers will burn through this wall of ice around the fortress?
* ''(Or)'' '''Iron Bull:''' We sure these things will burn through the magical ice?
* ''(Or)'' '''Blackwall:''' Let's hope these trail markers can breach the wall of ice around the fortress.
* ''(Or)'' '''Inquisitor:''' Hopefully this removes the wall of ice around the Tevinter fortress.

* '''Solas:''' Given that the trail markers retain enough energy to illuminate one another, I see no reason to worry.
* ''(Or)'' '''Vivienne:''' At least the trail markers appear to be functional.
* ''(Or)'' '''Dorian:''' As long as the trail markers are still functional, we should be fine.

* '''Sera:''' No ice, still a wall. What about that?
* ''(Or)'' '''Varric:''' You think these things will get us through that giant fortress wall?
* ''(Or)'' '''Cole:''' But there's still a wall. Light doesn't make walls go away.

== Bugs ==
* Even when following the numbers precisely, the second door will occasionally not open. This can be fixed by following the instructions in the video linked above. After finishing the first pattern, the only stone that should still be lit up is the middle one (#5). If the middle stone is not lit up, or there is more than one stone lit, then repeat the first pattern until you get the desired result. Then proceed with the second pattern and the second door should open. 
* If the lever situated past the wooden path cannot be interacted with, it is recommended to save and reload to allow progression. This bug potentially occurs when the lever is interacted with prior to dispelling the barrier and finding the veilfire ruins within.
