Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints

A Maiden in Distress

  • 1 of 5: You'll get this quest when you meet the maiden's spirit in the Fade while doing the "Shadows of the Blackmarsh" quest. (NOTE: This entire quest is all stuck in under the one objective of "Find the young woman in the crypt," so these hints won't have an objective list.)
  • 2 of 5: Enter the crypt and fight your way south to the path split, then go east.
  • 3 of 5: When you catch up to the spirit, it'll reveal itself in conversation to be a demon.
  • 4 of 5: You can try to intimidate it into going away, but you'll get less XP that way.
  • 5 of 5: Choose another option to get it and a few corpses to attack. Focus your attacks on the demon until it's dead, then finish off the corpses.
