The city of Minrathous is constantly at war with the evil Venatori stalking the streets in Dragon Age: The Veilguard and the Shadow Dragons are one of the only resistance groups in the city. Their clandestine works not only help free slaves and ensure the safety of Minrathous’ citizens but also keep the Venatori from taking over.

This guide explains how to uncover the fate of Makal Damas, leader of Threads, in The Cobbled Swan Case quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
Even they need help from time to time, though. In the wake of the escaped elven gods wreaking havoc across the continent and emboldening hostile forces, the Venatori have pulled a risky maneuver and kidnapped one of the most important figures of the Shadow Dragons: the Viper.
How To Get Into The Temple Of Andraste
This quest immediately begins after you complete its related quest, Last Rites, and the first thing you’ll want to do is head over to the Andraste’s Watch beacon. Turn to the right and go into the nearby corner, and a Gaatlok Barrel will be sitting against the wall.
Ignite it and blow open the wall, then hop over the railing at the end of the path and into the courtyard full of Venatori and blood-magic crystals.
After you kill the first four executioners and the mage, a few more Venatori will spawn right after, and you’ll need to kill them too.
Once the courtyard is cleared out, you’ll be able to get rid of the four crystals floating above the Viper’s prison and break him free.
After the cutscene, you’ll complete the quest and earn yourself some EXP, 400 Gold, two legendary Fade-Touched Silks, and 250 Reputation with the Shadow Dragons.
