　　現在我們已經知道在Kirkwall發生的大事件演變成新一度的Exalted March。不過這不是重點，主要是在ＤＬＣ中關於Exalted March的敘述，想請教各位的意見。

　　首先是聖人「吉斯蘭的喬弗瑞」的雕像（Statue of Blessed Brother Joffrey of Ghislain）這個CODEX中：

In 4:40 Black, the Chantry declared the first Exalted March to end the heresy in Tevinter. Brother Joffrey celebrated the occasion by writing a series of letters to the chantry in Minrathous, denouncing their scandalous behavior and urging them to better themselves. Although none of his letters were answered, Brother Joffrey was undeterred—he continued writing to the Minrathous Chantry, suggesting in the strongest possible terms that they apologize to the Divine at once, as she was really quite upset.

　　如果很單純來看會以為這是「第一次」的Exalted March－－儘管first也有開啟的意思在。如果了解教會史的話會知道Exalted March在這之前已經發動兩次：第一次是女先知對泰文特的征討－－這部分已經被歐雷側追認；第二次則是對Dales精靈的「整肅」；上記的宗教大分裂則是第三次。

　　另外是一瓶眼淚（A Vessel of Tears）的CODEX：

Although this wax-stoppered vessel is clearly labeled "Tears Shed During the Burning of Treviso," many questions remain, not the least of which is: Which burning of Treviso? When the Qunari conquered it in 6:35 Steel? When it was burned by the liberating armies of the White and Black Divines during the Second Exalted March of 7:52 Storm? Or when it accidentally burned to the ground in 8:62 Blessed after a dockhand knocked over a lantern in a warehouse full of lamp oil? ......

　　這樣就變成「第二次」的Exalted March了。不過這仍然有解套的方式，事實上在這次的Exalted March當中總共發動了三波攻勢，時間點分別是7:25、7:52、7:84，而這正好是第二波。

　　所以這兩段文獻我是否可以當成「...宣告展開（第三次）榮耀征伐...」以及「在「風暴」第７紀５２年第二波的榮耀征討」來看待？

以目前你提供的資料來看，第一個引文的first是小寫，

也就是說可能指的是你所謂的歷史上有所記載的第三次榮耀征伐第一波的攻勢抑或是源頭。

而第二個引文出現的Second有大寫，所以或許是專指歷史上有所記載的第二波榮耀征伐，然後點出特定年份以及其他資料。

在我看來是這樣，除非是筆誤，不然用大小寫來區分專有名詞應該是可以解釋你的認知的。

　　我還是稍微提一下好了。

　　這是在Item Pack 1裡關於盜賊裝備套件的部分，就是Carta兩任幫主的闊刃鉤刀（我修改了天邈的名詞）敘述：

When the Carta crime boss Beraht fell, his lover Jarvia fought off rivals, planting this shank in each of their hearts before she emerged as the group's undisputed leader. For years, Jarvia used a mix of brutality, cunning, and blackmail to grow the Carta's power until it threatened the Diamond Quarter itself.

When King Endrin Aeducan died, some whispered that Jarvia planned to force the Assembly to recognize the rights of dusters in Orzammar. Others said she planned to overthrow the nobles entirely. The truth will never be known, though. She was killed in cold blood by the Hero of Ferelden.

　　這段敘述是講述Jarvia發跡的過程，如果沒玩過DAO（Common Dwarven Origin）的話可能感覺不出來。事實上Beraht是在與塵民主人公的「因緣際會」下而死的，之後Jarvia接管Carta到主人公回到矮人國度尋求援助，不過數月...何來「For years」？

　　所以我決定忽略掉「For years」。
