You should already have a place to live. It seems very strange, but that's how it was explained to me. We've replaced other people who used to be here, and we now have their homes, their jobs, their lives...all my clothes were different when I arrived, even, so yours probably are too. Have you checked your pockets? You might have identification of some sort in them, that's how I found out all my information. ...granted, I think I'm just going to ignore all of mine, but that's me, you might like what you find better.
And yes, I'm from Ferelden. My name's Dar. It's nice to meet you, Solona! And to answer your earlier question, I'm a mage, and I used to work for the Mage's Collective. Which you might not have heard of. We try to have people not hear of us. But it doesn't really matter here, I suspect!
