How to complete The Palate of a Griffon quest in Dragon Age The Veilguard

Note: There are no requirements to romance Davrin. You can start pursuing him immediately after he's added to the group, after completing the "A Warden's Best Friend" quest. Tough, nonchalant, and honest dialogue options usually gain his approval. If you've committed to an exclusive relationship with Davrin in "A Friend in Need," it will result in additional dialogue options for The Palate of a Griffon quest.

Start the quest

Note: For this quest to appear, you should've already completed the "A Friend in Need" quest.

After completing the mentioned quest, go to the lighthouse. When you see an orange exclamation mark over Davrin's icon on the map, speak to him to unlock the quest. Davrin asks Rook if she's free, as he wants to do something outside the Lighthouse. He mentions that he is going to Arlathan forest with his pet Assan, a griffon.

The quest description goes as:

"Davrin's idea of a relaxing picnic in Arlathan forest goes slightly awry thanks to a culinary mishap."

Reach the location

After you've started the quest, go to Waterfront Glades in Arlathan forest. Follow the quest marker to reach the location.

Start the conversation

This quest is purely a conversational one, so you don't need to worry about any enemy interference or suiting up. When you reach the location, start the conversation among Rook, Davrin, and Assan.

After Rook expresses her surprise at Davrin taking a break, he mentions that Evka and Antoine suggested it considering what lies ahead for the Wardens:

Davrin: "Emmrich helped me brew a gingerwort truffle tea. I thought we'd see what all the fuss is about"

Choices:

• Gingerwort tea? Is this safe?
• Sounds fun.
• Mushroom tea? Disgusting.
• I'm glad you're relaxing. [Flirt with Davrin]

The Palate of a Griffon conversation continues. When under the influence of the drink, Rook hears Assan speak a word. Flabbergasted, Rook confirms her doubts with Davrin.

Davrin: "What?"

Choices:

• Nothing.
• Assan spoke!
• Did you hear that?

You can choose anyone to your liking, considering this doesn't concern Davrin's approval.

Davrin remembers hearing that the tea might have magical properties. He asks Rook if she's fine:

Davrin: "Hmm...maybe it affects some people more than others. You all right, Rook?"

Choices:

• Back at you, Assan.
• I think I've finally snapped.
• I'm fine. This is nothing.
• You're here. I'll be okay. [Flirt with Davrin]
