In front of the cave, you encounter Mihris - an elven mage. She wants to join you in your exploration of the cave. You can either chase her away, thanks to which you win approval points with Cassandra, but it is better to allow her to go with you.

For each artifact that you activate, you will be rewarded with some experience and Influence Points, as well as you will improve on your relations with Solas. As soon as you activate enough of them, you will be able to start the What Lies Dormant quest.

- 40 Influence Points
- Optionally: Amulet of Power
