Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints

How can I get to the baroness?

  • 1 of 6: Go west from where you start to find the first Fade portal.
  • 2 of 6: Immediately get everyone to start attacking the Fade portal. You'll want to destroy it as soon as possible to keep it from gating in any more allies for its revenant guardian.
  • 3 of 6: After you finish that battle and rest up, go west and turn north as soon as you can to find an iron chest in a spot past where a veil tear blocked your way before. (This is assuming you finished the "Tears in the Veil" optional quest while in the Fade.)
  • 4 of 6: Head west to the summoning circle area, where you'll find another revenant-guarded Fade portal. Do it like you did the previous one, then right-click on the runic pedestal to get the Gladiator's Belt if you did the Fade's runestone circle puzzle.
  • 5 of 6: Go up the hard-to-see path north of the summoning circle to find another iron chest, then go assault the third Fade portal a bit east of Kristoff's camp. After you trash it, go south from the camp and then SW to find the fourth and final Fade portal.
  • 6 of 6: Go north from it to find another iron chest, then go back south and open the village's north gate. Go through it catch up with the baroness.
