Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints

Freedom for Anders

  • 1 of 7: Talk to Namaya near the NE corner of Amaranthine's northern section with Anders in your party to get this quest. (NOTE: This entire quest is all stuck in under the one objective of "Help Anders find his phylactery," so these hints won't have an objective list.)
  • 2 of 7: Enter the abandoned warehouse that's at the south end of the market row (near Glassric and Octham).
  • 3 of 7: In the starting room, loot the crate, wooden crate, locked chest, and armoire. (Note that you'll find several good items for Anders to use.)
  • 4 of 7: Enter the small north side room to meet up with some templars.
  • 5 of 7: Insist that Anders stays with you, then kill the three templars.
  • 6 of 7: After the battle is over, tell Anders he's a friend for a big approval increase.
  • 7 of 7: Also, check the north room for a bookshelf, two locked chests, and a small shelf before you leave.
