Dialogue[edit]
- In the First Camp
- Hello! Feel free to make yourself at home in our camp. The Followers of Ascension welcome newcomers and travelers like.
- What brought you to the desert?
- It's my Wyld Hunt to discover the secrets of the Forgotten and Ascension. I spent years searching for answers and ended up here, where I've found others with similar ambitions.
- Do you think a sylvari can Ascend, given your nature?
- You mean because we come from the dragon Mordremoth? That past is not my future. I believe all creatures can Ascend. I'll find a way.
- I've got another question.
- I hope you are able to.
- I hope you find Ascension.
- Tell me a bit about this camp.
- The camp itself is pretty new, but the group is not. Xunn, Dawnwynn, and I traveled here together—a pilgrimage of sorts, to reach Ascension. Others have follower in our wake.
- And those that followed you formed the other camps?
- Yes. Some came from Amnoon, others from Tyria, and yet others are defectors from Joko's empire. We're a small community, but we take care of our own. We have to. This is the desert, after all.
- I've got another question.
- Very true. Thanks for chatting!
- I hope you find what you're looking for!
- What's your plan to reach Ascension?
- If we defeat the Branded Forgotten near the seal, we'll have enough magic to reactivate the teleporter to the Ascension room. Then, we'll face Josso Essher—or what he's become.
- And once you gain access to the Ascension room?
- We know the Forgotten left secrets there for the Chosen to find and use. Maybe even other prophecies from Glint herself. Imagine what we could learn.
- I've got another question.
- Indeed!
- Who is Joko Essher?
- Records are sketchy, but Josso Essher once tested the heroes of Tyria at Thirsty River, the most challenging Ascension trial. He, like the other Forgotten, was Branded by Kralkatorrik. Such a tragedy!
- His name sounds familiar.
- You must have come across Exalted Essher in Auric Basin. It's a genuine shame that all the Forgotten were Branded. So much knowledge, lost forever.
- I've got another question.
- Quite a shame.
- I've got another question.
- Truly. Thanks for the talk.
- Sounds like a plan.
- Thank you.
- During Help Kaidenna bring Forgotten magics to the Augury teleporter
- They've come with the hope of Ascension, but when the chamber itself is within their grasp, they're slow to stir.
- They'll come. Give it time.
- Inside the Hall of Ascension
- Augury Rock. The Forgotten, the trials...Ascension itself. All those legends lie before us. Take this opportunity to learn what you can. I can't wait to tell the others.
- What's so special about Augury Rock?
- This was where the Chosen of Tyria once attained Ascension to be closer to the gods. They were heroes who saved Tyria from the mursaat, from the Lich, and from the titans.
- Can Ascension still happen here?
- The ghost priest downstairs said Ascension hasn't been attained in generations. But I'm not giving up so easily. We'll crack the mystery, I'm sure.
- I've got another question.
- Hope your dedication finds you answers.
- What are all these verses plaques?
- Those plaques are the writings of the very Flameseeker Prophecies foretold by Glint centuries ago. Each represents a verse, though for which scroll? It seems to change.
- How do I read them?
- Touch the plaque. Within are Forgotten Lights that emerge and split apart. Retrieve them all, and the verse will be revealed.
- I've got another question.
- Ask away! Traveling to a new land has meant meeting a lot of new people, and it's thrilling. I'm always up for a chat.
- What happened here at Augury Rock? (Same as "What's so special about Augury Rock?")
- What brought you to the desert?
- What's your plan to reach Ascension? (Same as "Can Ascension still happen here?")
- Actually, you've already answered all of my questions.
- Thanks. I'll do that.
- How strange.
- I've got another question.
- I hope you find what you're looking for!
- What brought you to the desert?
- It's my Wyld Hunt to discover the secrets of the Forgotten and Ascension. I spent years searching for answers and ended up here, where I've found others with similar ambitions.
- And those that followed you formed the others camps?
- (If not sylvari)
- Do you think a sylvari can Ascend, given your nature? (Same answer if sylvari)
- (If sylvari)
- Do you think a sylvari can Ascend? Would our nature allow it?
- You mean because we come from the dragon Mordremoth? That past is not my future. I believe all creatures can Ascend. I'll find a way.
- I've got another question.
- I hope you are able to.
- I've got another question.
- I hope you find Ascension.
- Are you trying to reach Ascension? (Same as "Can Ascension still happen here?")
- Thank you.
- During Disperse the wild magic that escaped from Augury Rock
- Something's wrong. I think our efforts threw off the natural balance of energy here. Unstable magic is seeping everywhere. Quick, we've got to disperse it!
- How do we do that?
- Well, these energies are inherently unstable. All we need to do is disrupt the flow. We might be able to break them up by simply passing through them.
- What happens to the dispersed magic?
- I would expect it to coalesce back within Augury Rock, but it could take on a different form instead. Let's be cautious.
- What happens if we can't disperse the magic? (Same as "What happens if we can't?")
- I'm good at being cautious.
- I'll go do that right away.
- What happens if we can't?
- I don't know. Augury Rock hasn't been opened like this in ages... This is uncharted territory. Honestly, I'd rather not find out.
- How do we disperse the magic? (Same as "How do we do that?")
- Agreed. We should deal with this now.
- Thank you.
