Dragon Age: Origins Hints
Free the demon.
1 of 4: You get this objective if you agree to help the demon get free of the containment chamber.
2 of 4: You could run straight back to Matthias' room, fighting lesser shades along the way, and tell him about the demon. This gets you the "Follow the father into the demon's lair" objective.
3 of 4: If you'd rather free the demon and let it possess the little girl, you'll have to fiddle with the large puzzle gadget in the center of the room.
4 of 4: After the puzzle is solved, you can change your mind and fight the demon anyway, or you can get a powerful magic staff by using the "only if you make it worth my while" dialogue option. (Note that this allows the demon to possess the little girl, and you'll lose a lot of approval if you have any higher-morality companions with you.)
