Tamlen has always been one of my favorite parts of the Dalish Elf Origin, and I always wish he had more vanilla content.
If you romance him, it's undeniable that the two of you are in love, have grown up together, are best friends, and will eventually be married.
The cave ruins aren't romantic (at all), but this mod is also connected to my Kissing Tamlen mod via the flower.
And the scene is from a storyline I created for my original Mahariel character.
Works for male or female Dalish elves.
I recommend to trigger it after you have the conversation with him (in the ruins), where he asks why you are with him for the day.
You will receive a flower (with a description) in your inventory under Plot Items (like Alistair's Rose).

To play the scene, click on the wildflower next to the big statue (with the light) outside the mirror room.
It's on that left corner when facing the mirror room door.

Or you can choose to open the door to the mirror room and then click on the flower.
If you play the scene before you open the door, you won't be required to fight the walking corpses.
Please see the sticky note under comments for additional special info on this.
There are two versions.
One is installed via the DAUpdater, and the other is a loose files version to drop into your override folder.
Choose only one version.
A Flower from Tamlen adds a sweet cutscene with Tamlen and Mahariel at the start of the Dalish Elf Origin in Dragon Age: Origins. Designed for players who want to romance Tamlen, this standalone mod requires no other mods and works for both male and female elves.
