Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints

South Section Tips

  • 1 of 10: Look to the right of the bridge for an elfroot plant, then look to the left for a wooden crate next to an overturned wagon. It'll have some fine silks in it that are needed for the "The Merchant's Goods" optional quest.
  • 2 of 10: A bit south of that is a small bandit camp next to an engraved statue that you can get a codex entry from. (The statues are involved in the "Maferath's Monuments" optional quest.)
  • 3 of 10: Go west from the camp and turn south to find a trail with a fence on one side of it, then follow it west to find more scavengers and another wild sylvan.
  • 4 of 10: Go up the south path that's near them to find a blood lotus plant and a couple of traps. On past that is another small camp next to an engraved statue.
  • 5 of 10: Examine the statue for a codex update, then go down the path near it, watching for another trap at the bottom. Turn right past it to find a chest, a wild sylvan, and a crate.
  • 6 of 10: Get on the raised path that's next to the crate and go north to find another engraved statue to examine for a codex update.
  • 7 of 10: Return to the south end of the bridge and head west to find a rashvine plant. Look to the west and south of it for any scavengers you've killed but haven't looted. Some of them have fine silks on them.
  • 8 of 10: Loot the bundle of cloth and locked chest in the bandit camp that's marked on the area map, then go up the slope to the west of it to find another codex-updating statue.
  • 9 of 10: Around the hill to the west of the bandit camp is the spot where you fought the first group of scavengers and bandits. Look around to find a barrel, a wooden crate, and a codex-giving scroll.
  • 10 of 10: Look NW of there for a rashvine, then go back to the burning wreckage near the area entrance. There's a broken crate and barrel on one side of the wreckage, and a blood lotus plant and chest on the other side.
