Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a game of choices, where all decisions impact your storyline. Some may result in a simple approval or disapproval by the companions, whereas others may lead to major consequences later in the game. So you need to be careful with each and every decision during the gameplay.

Such a situation arises during ‘The Cobbled Swan Case” quest. The quest appears as a part of the main story or Neve’s companion quest, depending on your choice of saving Minrathous or Treviso. After defeating Makal Damas, he will offer you a deal to join hands with Threads in defeating the Bataris. You will be provided with the option of accepting or refusing Makal Damas’ deal. 

Let’s analyze the outcome of both choices in Dragon Age: The Veilguard and pick the one that suits you.

The decision you make at this point will have an impact on the storyline of Neve’s companion quests and the choice associated with her ‘Hero of the Veilguard’ status. Here is the breakdown of the consequences of accepting or refusing the deal by Makal Damas during the ‘The Cobbled Swan Case” quest. 

What Happens if You Accept Makal Damas’ Deal?

Threads will assist Rook and Neve in their fight against the Venatori during Neve’s companion quests if you accept the deal with Makal Damas. You won’t receive Neve’s ‘Hero of the Veilguard’ choice at the end of her companion questline. Accepting the deal removes the choice and makes her path a predetermined one rather than giving her a choice. 

What Happens if You Refuse Makal Damas’ Deal?

If you decide to refuse the deal, you won’t get any support from Threads during Neve’s later quests, and you have to fight the Venatori without their support. This decision allows you to make your choice about Neve’s ‘Hero of the Veilguard’ during her final companion quest. Note that if you have saved Treviso instead of Minrathous, Neve disapproves and aggressively accepts the deal with Threads, regardless of your choice.
