The elven warrior Nalahira is encountered by your party while you scout the Emerald Graves. Badly injured, she asks that the Inquisitor enact her vengeance on the humans that killed her parents. As proof of the deed, she asks that the Inquisitor return her mother's necklace that the humans stole.
[[Accept]]
[[Refuse]]
You can find this group of humans in a small cabin to the north west of the Graves. The location is marked on your map.
[[Travel to the Location]]
You refuse to help Nalahira. Angry, the elf continues on her way.
When the Inquisitor reaches the cabin, a cutscene plays. A burly bearded man and three other sit around a table with cards and brandy. The bearded man looks up as the Inquisitor enters the room.
<blockquote><b>Matthias:</b> <i>(Arrogantly)</i> And who might you be? You don't belong here, whelp.
</blockquote><i> Alternatively if the Inquisitor is an elf </i>
<blockquote><b>Matthias:</b> <i>(Arrogantly)</i> And who might you be? You don't belong here, knife ear.</blockquote>
[[You must face justice]]
[[Oops! My mistake!]]
[[Attack]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Assertively)// You murdered innocent elves in cold blood. You will answer for that.
''Matthias:'' //(Arrogantly)// Yeah, and what are you going to- //(Realisation)// Wait a minute - I recognise you. You're the Inquisitor. //Shit//
[[Save it for Skyhold]]
[[Shit, indeed]]
[[Makes my job easier]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Sarcastically)// I must have the wrong address. There are so many isolated cabins out here, I must have gotten them mixed up.
''Matthias:'' //(Annoyed)// Looks like we've got a comedian here boys. Listen stranger, you've got about ten seconds to explain yourself, before me and my boys here beat you to a pulp.
[[You must face justice]]
[[Time for a trip down memory lane]]
[[I'm here to kill you]]
Combat begins. Upon defeat you loot 11 gold and 'Green Pendant'
[[Aftermath: Men Dead]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Assertively)// You can defend yourself at your trial.
''Matthias:'' //(Alarmed)// Wait! Let me make you a deal!
[[What kind of deal?]]
[[Oh this should be good]]
[[No deal (Attack)]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Bemused)// I don't think 'shit' even begins to cover it.
''Matthias:'' //(Alarmed)// Wait! Let me make you a deal!
[[What kind of deal?]]
[[Oh this should be good]]
[[No deal (Attack)]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Assertively)// Your indirect admission of guilt has made my job a lot easier.
''Matthias:'' //(Alarmed)// Wait! Let me make you a deal!
[[What kind of deal?]]
[[Oh this should be good]]
[[No deal (Attack)]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Humourously)// Maybe if you think really, really hard, you might recall slaughtering some elves. The justice system doesn't look to lightly on that
''Matthias:'' //(Arrogantly)// Yeah, and what are you going to- //(Realisation)// Wait a minute - I recognise you. You're the Inquisitor. //Shit//
[[Save it for Skyhold]]
[[Shit, indeed]]
[[Makes my job easier]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Angrily)// You killed innocent elves and you will pay for your crimes with your life.
''Matthias:'' //(Angrily)// Not without a fight I won't. Men, attack!
[[Attack]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Begrudging)// Speak quickly, I'm listening.
''Matthias:'' //(Calmly)// You let us go and we'll give you 500 gold for your trouble. I'll also give you the necklace we took and you can tell that knife-ear that we're as good as dead. What do you say?
[[Alright, deal]]
[[Seriously?]]
[[Pathetic]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Sarcastically)// Oh I can't wait to hear this.
''Matthias:'' //(Calmly)// You let us go and we'll give you 500 gold for your trouble. I'll also give you the necklace we took and you can tell that knife-ear that we're as good as dead. What do you say?
[[Alright, deal]]
[[Seriously?]]
[[Pathetic]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Coldly)// You'll die for your crimes.
''Matthias:'' //(Angrily)// Not without a fight I won't. Men, attack!
[[Attack]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Apprehensive)// You have yourself a deal.
''Matthias:'' //(Relieved)// Alright here's your gold and that stupid necklace. We'll be on our way.
[[Aftermath: Men Alive]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Disbelief)// That's your offer? I'm taking you to Skyhold
''Matthias:'' //(Angrily)// I'm not going anywhere without a fight. Men, attack!
[[Attack]]
''Inquisitor:'' //(Disgust)// You're pathetic. You will face judgement for your crimes.
''Matthias:'' //(Angrily)// I'm not going anywhere without a fight. Men, attack!
[[Attack]]
You return to Nalahira.
''Nalahira:'' //(Anxiously)// Well, is it done? Are they... are they dead?
''Inquisitor:'' //(Calmly)// It's done. Here's your mother's necklace. I'm so sorry for your loss.
''Nalahira:'' //(Relieved)// Ma serannas, Inquisitor. While I do mourn my parents, I am glad that their deaths have been avenged.
//Cassandra Slightly Approves//
//Solas approves//
//Varric Approves//
//Cole Greatly Approves//

[[End Result]]
Nalahira gives you 50 gold as a reward for killing her parent's murderers, regardless of whether the player character actually did or not. She also gives you a rare weapon, depending on the player character's class.
If the Inquisitor killed the men, Nalahira will later join the Inquisition as an agent.
If the Inquisitor did not kill the men, they will later stumble upon her corpse in the Emerald Graves.
