dragonworms:

I kinda wonder if the Warden motto comes from something older and unknowingly related to Andruil. She represents sacrifice, which is the keyword in their whole code. And if you read about her philosophy of the Hunt, the Vir Tanadhal (which, is the way of three trees Davrin was taught btw) echoes similarity:

be swift and strike true (in war victory), bend but never break (in peace vigilance), receive the gifts of the hunt with mindfulness (in death sacrifice)

I dunno maybe I’m overthinking it, it’s just interesting to me that she’s also the one who caught the Blight first, and since she’s Evanuris her “philosophy” is more likely a lifestyle she drilled into her armies. So who knows if the grey wardens, while discovering how to kill the archdemons, discovered something of her old forces with it.
