Dragon Age: Origins Hints
Visit the merchants or watch the Provings.
1 of 5: Look around your room for a couple of containers to loot and items to examine for codex entries, then leave the room and check the nearby bookshelf for a codex-entry book.
2 of 5: Go down the hallway to Bhelen's room (it's the one a woman comes out of and then runs back into), where you can loot an armoire to get a merchant's belt. There's also a locked chest that you can open if your character is a rogue.
3 of 5: Talk to the mistress if you want to, then look for a pile of books and a letter that will each give a codex entry.
4 of 5: Head on down the hallway to a large room where you can go north to enter the throne room or south to exit to the Diamond Quarter region.
5 of 5: You could enter the throne room now and move on with the quest (see the "Attend the feast" objective's hints), but it's definitely best to take some time to check out the Diamond Quarter and the Proving Grounds.
