In this week's episode, the Cups discuss the very first Exalted March, led by Andraste and Maferath against Tevinter. You might think you already know everything there is to know about Andraste. But we dive into the specifics of the context and background leading up to this Exalted March, as well as the actual fights and the aftermath of Andraste's martyrdom. This Exalted March is labeled as the first, but really, that title was bestowed much later, after the Chantry was formed.

In this week's episode, the Cups look at a precursor war to another set of Exalted Marches. This week, we're looking at the Qunari Wars, which is their first expedition into mainland Thedas. They came in unexpected force, with superior technology, which allowed them to take over a significant chunk of Thedas very easily. It takes Thedosians a hot minute before they're ready or able to fight back. This episode dives into all of these attempts, and leads into the Exalted March against the Qunari. We're launching MERCH!

In this week's episode, the Cups talk about a war that we as the players and the Inquisition help end – the War of the Lions. You may have also heard this referred to as the Orlesian Civil War. But it's not really, fully a civil war as fighting doesn't break out amongst all of the people of Orlais. This war is a war about succession and rulership of the country of Orlais. Today, we discuss how it all started, what happened, and how it ended. If you love our show, you can support us on Patreon!

Today, the Cups are joined by repeat special guest Allisondraste to discuss perhaps the most ignored character in all of Dragon Age, Oghren. Oghren is an alcoholic, somewhat of a misogynist, gross, and generally, forgettable. But how did he get this way? What part of his backstory led him to be so repugnant? We look at his whole character and answer all of these questions and more. We also attempt to make a case for Oghren's depth of character. Want to chime in on the conversation?

Today, The Cups discuss another elven god – arguably, the one most worshipped by the elves, at least the ones we've seen so far. Taking a look at Mythal, we discuss her history, her role among the Evanuris, who the Dalish say she is, and how Flemeth and Andraste fit into this story. And of course, we wonder where she is now.
