Dragon Age: Origins Hints
Find a young girl in the tower.
1 of 8: Go through the door past Matthias and on to a root cellar with three plants to harvest and a fractured stone to loot.
2 of 8: Go back to Matthias' room and have everyone else hold their position there while you send one character cautiously into the study.
3 of 8: As soon as the dust wraith and lesser shades appear, run back to Matthias' room as fast as you can. If you're fast, the shades won't all follow you, and you'll be able to fight them a few at a time.
4 of 8: Loot the dust wraith to find a nice Harvest Festival Ring, then look for a book and locked chest in the study.
5 of 8: Raid the two strange crystal clusters in the aquifer area, then move through the barrier that leads into the containment facility.
6 of 8: Walk up to where the girl and her demonic cat talk to you, then decide how to handle the demon.
7 of 8: If you refuse to help the demon get free, it'll attack you along with several lesser rage demons. This is a tough fight, but you can get two great unique magic items from the demon after you win.
8 of 8: If you instead decide to help the demon, you'll get the "Free the demon" objective.
