Dialogue[edit]

Have you come seeking the knowledge I possess about the relics you carry? Or perhaps you would like to browse my collection of recipes?
Talk more option tango.png I'd love some more information about these relics, Ikur.
Of course. What would you like to know?
Talk more option tango.png What are they used for?
Relics like these contain great power that a skilled wielder can draw on. Trust me, once you use one in battle, you'll understand why they're so highly valued.
Talk back option tango.png I have more questions.
Talk end option tango.png I'll have to give them a try then.
Talk more option tango.png How old are they?
Ah, a tricky question. The unusual materials are as old as Tyria, maybe older. But they've developed their essence from their surroundings only recently.
Talk more option tango.png Older than Tyria?
It's possible. We don't really understand how they came to be, and there's nothing else on Tyria quite like them. They may have not originated here at all.
Talk back option tango.png I have more questions.
Talk end option tango.png I guess there's a lot I don't understand yet.
Talk more option tango.png How recently?
Well, they only gained their current strength at the end of the Dragon Cycle. The Elder Dragons were fundamental to Tyria; their destruction likely altered the nature of a great many things.
Talk back option tango.png I have more questions.
Talk end option tango.png I'm seeing that more every day.
Talk more option tango.png Which one is the best?
I don't think it's quite as simple as that. They each have very unique properties that suit different approaches and situations. I think you'll just have to decide for yourself which serves you best.
Talk back option tango.png I have more questions.
Talk end option tango.png It seems like that's often the solution.
Talk more option tango.png Where does their power come from?
When exposed to beings of great power, these stones seem to imprint with them, capturing a reflection of that being. That power remains contained within until someone capable of using it comes along.
Talk back option tango.png I have more questions.
Talk end option tango.png I guess that's where I come in.
Talk end option tango.png That answers my questions, thanks.
Talk merchant tango.png Show me the recipes you've gathered.
Talk end option tango.png Actually, never mind.

Archivist Ikur

Interested in relics?


Wayfinder,

I've been wanting to speak with you regarding the relics you helped R'tchikk recover in the Wizard's Tower. Come find me on the lower level of the Wizard's Tower, by the central staircase, if you want to learn more about them and how they might be able to help you grow in power.

—Archivist Ikur

Notes[edit]

Despite what is said in the mail Ikur sends the player, they are not located near the central staircase, but instead are in the north-east.
