Locations[edit]
Story involvement[edit]
Living World Season 2[edit]
- Episode 5: Echoes of the Past
Dialogue[edit]
Divinity's Reach[edit]
- Eastern Commons and Plaza of Kormir (west)
- (If sylvari)
- Oh, these humans! They're so changeable, like the seasons, but daily. Have you noticed how they change their clothes and even the foliage on their heads.[sic] Fascinating!
- I know what you mean.
- (If human)
- Your city is so grand! And you made it all yourselves. It's nice that you left room for a few trees and other plants, but how do you walk on these hard stones all day long?
- You get used to it.
- (If asura, charr or norn)
- This city is so grand! Humans really are quite industrious, aren't they. Does your race create such magnificent structures as well?
- Ours are even bigger and better.
- Plaza of Kormir (east)
- The Ventari Tablet is very important to the sylvari, but it is the words upon it that shape its meaning. How is it, then, that these scholars contemplate mere images? I must think on this further.
- Tell me more about the Ventari Tablet.
- Good luck.
Siren's Landing[edit]
- Aboard The Buoyant Bough
- Don't mind me. I'm trying to take in space as a whole.
- Are you okay? You seem to be wandering aimlessly.
- Or maybe my aim is to wander. For not all who wander are lost.
- Each to their own.
- Your wish is my exit.
- Lyssa's Reliquary
- So glad you interrupted me. I was lost in a vision of Orr rising. The land peacefully settled on the sea bottom, until the dragon's stirring breaks apart clods of soil, disturbs the corpses...
- That's graphic.
- And then, the waters thrust aside, the tidal wave! Undead tumbling through dirt-clouded waters. I see it so clearly in my mind's eye.
- I wouldn't look too closely if I were you.
- I need to go. Good day to you.
- Do you know the story of how Orr was sunk below the sea? It's full of drama. The charr were attacking, and someone thought it a good idea to destroy the kingdom rather than turn it over to invaders.
- Wasn't the only time something like that happened.
- No. Ascalon. I've never been threatened by a charr army. How terrifying it must be.
- (If charr)
- You better believe it.
- (Otherwise)
- To inspire such drastic measures, yes.
- I need to go. Good day to you.
- Risen Lowlands
- I was just wondering what these poor Risen must be thinking. Do you imagine they know they've lost their master and are now unchained?
- I don't think they know much at all.
- I feel the loss of Mordremoth—relief more than anything. The urge, the voice...gone now. I'm free like before—unchained. It's beautiful, and I wish it for them.
- If they're aware, then they surely wish for death.
- It must be awful, trapped in your own rotting corpse, no satisfaction or rest. Their final release is perhaps the only kind thing left to give them.
- I need to go. Good day to you.
- I need to go. Good day to you.

Trivia[edit]
- The quote "Not All Who Wander Are Lost" from the sylvari explorer aboard The Buoyant Bough may be referencing a poem by J.R.R. Tolkien called All that is gold does not glitter.
