3 - Dead Messenger
If you allowed Avernus to continue his research in the
Warden's Keep DLC for Dragon Age: Origins, then at this spot you'll discover a dead messenger, and on his body you'll find
Grey Warden Documents,
Silverite-Threaded Gloves, and
Avernus's Experimental Draught. When you loot the body, you'll trigger the quest "Dark Epiphany," which will require you to deliver the documents to a dead drop in
Lowtown. Along the way, you'll have to defeat a few bands of bandits and mercenaries, but when you reach the dead drop, you'll earn 2 sovereigns and 400 xp.
4 - Glitterdust

5 - Dalish Assassin
At this spot you'll witness a Dalish assassin accusing a human of being a werewolf. Depending on what you did in Dragon Age: Origins, the human might admit to the accusation and beg forgiveness, or he might deny it completely. You'll then get two or three ways to respond. You can allow the elves to kill the human, you can defend the human (which will require you to kill the elves), or you might be able to diffuse the situation (but only if you've been selecting "good" responses in dialogue). Regardless, you'll end up receiving 50 silvers and 500 xp at the end of the encounter.
Note: If you have Isabela with you, then you'll gain friendship with her if you let the elves have the human, and you'll gain rivalry with her if you defend the human.
