The Domain of Vabbi is a zone in Vabbi in the Crystal Desert. It features many locations from Guild Wars Nightfall, including Kodash Bazaar and the Garden of Seborhin.

Vabbi is a land of great wealth and lavish palaces. Under the rule of Palawa Joko, Vabbian culture has been subverted through centuries of propaganda, turning it into little more than an efficient machine for producing loyal Awakened. Most Vabbians now worship Joko as a god-king, eagerly serving him in both life and death.

The recent arrival of the Elder Dragon Kralkatorrik has ravaged much of the eastern side of the region, and the Brandstorm rages especially fiercely there. Balthazar's Forged have set up a staging ground for the assault on Vabbi in their relentless pursuit of the Elder Dragon.

Ambient dialogue

Through the entire Domain of Vabbi, the Awakened Affirmation System can be heard spreading Palawa Joko's orders and propaganda.

Awakened Affirmation System: At the end of every day, be sure to ask yourself, "Would I be more productive if I was no longer living?"

Awakened Affirmation System: Congratulations. King Joko rewards your adequate performance of today's tasks by allowing you to perform them again tomorrow.

Awakened Affirmation System: Your benevolent king has awakened the sun for another fine day under his unerring rule. Praise Joko.

Awakened Affirmation System: Rest assured this announcement service will only be used during sleep hours if there is an important message to relay.

Awakened Affirmation System: Another day dawns thanks to the generosity of your divine leader Palawa Joko. You’re welcome.

Awakened Affirmation System: A good night’s rest revitalizes your waking work for the king. Night shift and Awakened, report immediately or be punished.

Awakened Affirmation System: The vitality of Vabbi relies on the health of your body, in life or death. Prevent injuries with daily calisthenics.
