The Serpent of Nevarra is a war table operation in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
Acquisition[]
Available upon completion of the main quest In Your Heart Shall Burn. Requires Influence Level 5.
Operation text[]
Inquisition agents have uncovered a potential problem in the nation of Nevarra: a Tevinter mage by the name of Virellius has recently been noted in the company of King Markus, and rumors comment on how strange it is for a new advisor to be so closely heeded. There is evidence to indicate Virellius is a member of the Venatori. Having the Nevarran king under their sway would give the cult a great deal of power and hinder the Inquisition's ability to operate in the north.
Advisor suggestions[]
Josephine - 4:00:00[]
We should tell King Markus what his advisor truly is. Convince him to see the light.
Leliana - 3:12:00[]
Send an agent to eliminate the advisor, as well as his supporters, by any means necessary.
Cullen - 4:00:00[]
Wait for this advisor to leave the capital, then send a force to ambush and capture him.

I will admit, when your ambassador first approached me with the claims regarding Virellius, I was unconvinced. Indeed, I did not heed the evidence even when it was presented. It was only when one of your mages, an apostate named Sidony, managed to drive the clouds from my mind that I finally realized the spell I had been under. Virellius has been imprisoned, and we will be on the lookout for any further efforts by these cultists to infiltrate my nation. Nevarra is most grateful.

The agent known as Argent infiltrated the Nevarran royal palace and killed Virellius, eliminating several others who she reports were clearly co-conspirators. King Markus is reported to have waken "as if from a dream." The Inquisition is not connected to any of this, and the king is enraged to have been magically influenced in such a manner. He will definitely be more wary of Venatori emissaries in the future. Argent brought back several interesting items that were in Virellius' possession.

Inquisition forces waited until Virellius left the royal palace in Nevarra, watching until we were certain his goal was to report to superiors in the Tevinter city of Trevis. Then we struck. I'm told that our agent, a reaver named Tamar, cut a bloody swath through their ranks... and Virellius himself was captured. We recovered various artifacts he carried, and reports state that King Markus "came to his senses, as if awakening from a dream." The Venatori threat in Nevarra has been eliminated.
