Dialogue[edit]
Mount Balrior[edit]
- At the foot of Mount Balrior
- Caithe: Good. We're all here. Bad news first.
- Caithe: A nasty storm is coming. It's blocking the reinforcements from crossing the bay, even with the lowlanders guiding them.
- <Character name>: If that storm is headed our way, then we probably need to get moving.
- Malice Shadowplay: Scouted ahead. There are some ruins just up the mountain. Might be a good foothold before we push on the titans...
- <Character name>: Anything else?
- Malice Shadowplay: That's as far as I felt comfortable going alone. Spawn everywhere-from all three of them.
- <Character name>: Then we push to camp and take it from there. We just don't have a lot of time. Every move needs to be deliberate.
- Barbed Vale: Wait!
- Stoic Alder: Vale? What are you doing here?
- Barbed Vale: I'm not letting our Claw climb Mount Balrior without his Spear Master.
- Stoic Alder: Ah. A good warrior and even better friend. May the wind carry us.
- Barbed Vale: My spear is yours, Alder.
- <Character name>: Ready, everyone?
- Caithe: No time like the present.
- Stoic Alder: Let us end this.
- Ambush
- Malice Shadowplay: Eyes on the titanspawn.
- Ambush defeated
- Poised Arrow: They're gone! All clear.
- Arrival at Base Camp
- Malice Shadowplay: There, look.
- Stoic Alder: And filled with the stranger's spawn.
- Malice Shadowplay: C'mon, let's make quick work of this.
- Base Camp secured
- Malice Shadowplay: Secured.
- Caithe: Clear sky. The Mists energies shouldn't be too severe...We'll have the upper hand.
- Malice Shadowplay: And no bloodstone in sight. Also good.
- <Character name>: Time is our main enemy, then, especially if a storm's rolling in.
- <Character name>: Dagda, any idea where they are?
- Dagda: Hm.
- Dagda: Close, but their energies are...seperate? They're on opposite sides of the peak.
- <Character name>: Maybe they're expecting us...Probably a trap.
- Waiting Sorrow: Regardless, they'll learn of our presence quickly. And if they can sense when their spawn are killed... They're already preparing.
- Poised Arrow: It's a...little wild, but I have an idea. If they split up now, so should we. We know Greer's and Decima's song and dance.
- Poised Arrow: We all start picking them off...while Sorrow and Dagda keep the others busy.
- <Character name>: I like that. Work our way around the mountain; keep them separated, kill them separated.
- Dagda: If the air tells me truth, Greer is to the east. Decima to the west. Ura...harder to say, but north.
- Waiting Sorrow: Okay. You all head to Greer - like Poky said, we know his ways. Dagda, you hold Decima in place.
- Dagda: Mm. When Greer is dead, be ready to move. I'll send a portal that'll bring you all straight to me and Decima.
- Base Camp etablished
- <Character name>: Ready to go?
- Malice Shadowplay: Let's move out.
- Dagda: Good luck.
- Headed towards Greer
- <Character name>: How's everyone feeling about this?`
- Caithe: A pinch nervous... But this is necessary.
- Stoic Alder: I look ahead for days without strife, hoping they near.
- Elite Blighted Beast
- Malice Shadowplay: Argh, they never relent.
- Elite Blighted Beast dead
- Stoic Alder: Done.
- <Character name>: One less to worry about. Let's keep moving.`
- Approaching Greer
- Caithe: There. Just ahead.
- Poised Arrow: (breathes deeply) Let's go.
- Greer, the Blightbringer: You come once more to court death?
- <Character name>: No more hiding, Greer.`
- Greer, the Blightbringer: Bravery. A trait of the ignorant.
- Fighting Greer
- Greer, the Blightbringer: You could worship us, Malice Shadowplay. Let us guide you.
- Malice Shadowplay: This is gonna be carthartic.
- Greer, the Blightbringer: Nescience will speed your decay!
- Malice Shadowplay: The false god fears death? Funny.
- Greer, the Blightbringer: (groans)
- Malice Shadowplay: Just a story to scare cubs. That's all your kind is worth.
- Greer death
- Greer, the Blightbringer: Ura, Decima... Return to...the foundry...
- Caithe: (breathes heavily)
- <Character name>: Are we okay? Everyone alive?
- Poised Arrow: Alive.... Yeah.
- <Character name>: Right on time. Come on.
- Catching up to Dagda
- Dagda: Quit, she's just ahead. I'm certain she can smell me.
- <Character name>: Think she's waiting for us to make the first move?
- Dagda: Might be. Let's make her regret that..
- Fighting Decima
- Decima, the Stormsinger: The ants return for a crumb of bread, unkowiung what...
- Decima, the Stormsinger: I...can smell him on you.
- Decima, the Stormsinger: You...
- Decima, the Stormsinger: (shouts)
- Caithe: Watch for her lightning. We know how vicious she can be.
- Poised Arrow: Leave these lands!
- Decima, the Stormsinger: (snarls)
- Decima, the Stormsinger: You are next to enter the flame.
- Poised Arrow: You are next. We already killed the rotbringer.
- Decima, the Stormsinger: Gnawing pests!
- Poised Arrow: For Maw.
- <Character name>: Cruble, Decima.
- Decima Death
- Decima, the Stormsinger: Greer, I'll meet you in the...the fire...
- Poised Arrow: (shouts)
- Poised Arrow: (wheezes)
- <Character name>: Heh...Easy, cub.
- Stoic Alder: My Son.
- Check on the group
- Malice Shadowplay: (groans) Gonna feel that one for a bit...
- Caithe: Dagda, Commander - I think you two should go ahead. I don't think the rest of us can push much farther.
- Dagda: Probably wise. Wayfinder, how is your strength? Are you okay to face Ura?
- <Character name>: Let's go.
- Barbed Vale: I will remain here and protect them while you march.
- Dagda: I can sense Sorrow and Ura ahead. Come on.
- Scent Trails sniffed
- <Character name>: No titanspawn...
- Dagda: Sorrow probably cleared the way. I hope.
- Found Sorrow
- Dagda: Sorrow. Where is Ura?
- Waiting Sorrow: Ahead, I think. She's managed to elude me thus far. Keeps sending spawn to block my path.
- Entered Ura's Domain
- <Character name>: Where could she...
- Dagda: Look. Is that a piece of bloodstone?
- Destroyed Bloodstone
- Dagda: The bloodstone is about to surge! Come to me!
- Ura: You killed the godspawn?
- Waiting Sorrow: Emerge, beast.
- Ura: I will drag your souls to the foundry to build my kin anew!
- Fighting Ura
- Ura: I will make you beg for death.
- Waiting Sorrow: You're no god. You are not even of the gods. I see a stain.
- Ura: Our spawn murmur visions of your village. Perhabs I'll visit them next.
- Waiting Sorrow: (snarls)
- Ura: (snarls)
- Ura: Spilling godspawn blood will doom your fate!
- <Character name>: Doom my fate? Sure.
- Waiting Sorrow: You will never threaten my people again.
- Ura Death
- Ura: (groans)
- Ura: Heh... Ah. (winces) The thread unravels.
- Ura: I sense celebration on your breath. Stifle it.
- Ura: For the door we came through sits wide open...
- Regroup with your allies
- Dagda: "The door we came through sits wide open"? What does that mean?
- <Character name>: I knew there had to be a catch.
- Waiting Sorrow: We'll figure that out. But for now...she is dead. All three of them are.
- Waiting Sorrow: I'll collect the others and returm them to the village. Their wounds need tending.
- <Character name>: I'll meet you there. I want to linger behind for a moment
- Inspect Ura
- <Character name>: (breathes deeply)
- <Character name>: What did you want from us? From Tyria?
Harvest Den[edit]
- Greeting Poky
- Poised Arrow: Wayfinder, welcome to the Night of Quiet Breath.
- Poised Arrow: Feast before the battle, take a nap after!
- <Character Name>: Ah, my kind of party.
- Poised Arrow: C'mon, everyone's resting.
- Checking in on Caithe and Malice
- Malice Swordshadow: That was one heck of a fight. Glad it's done.
- Caithe: Exhilarating, though. Not quite the same as fighting an Elder Dragon, but a battle worhty of some fable.
- Poised Arrow: Thank you both for...all of this. Excellent backup, you were.
- Caithe: Oh yes, that was all you, cub.
- Poised Arrow: You're very welcome.
- Malice Swordshadow: Anytime, kid.
- Poised Arrow: Heh. Paw's inside with Sorrow and the blue guy. Might want to make our way in before...
- Caithe: Oh, no. Malice and I will wait out here and keep guard.
- Malice Swordshadow: Mhm.
- <Character Name>: How benevolent. Let's go, Poky, in case they need some adult supervision.
- Poised Arrow: After this, I'm starting torpor early.
- Meet with the others
- Isgarren: Wayfinder, never has your arrival been so gladly recieved.
- Stoic Alder: Hrm.
- Isgarren: Thank you for alloweing us in your home, Claw of the lowland kodan.
- Stoic Alder: The threat has passed. Now we must heal.
- Isgarren: I agree. And on the topic of healing...Waiting Sorrow has more to tell you.
- Stoic Alder: More?
- <Character Name>: Ah...
- Poised Arrow: Hey now, my cerulean guest, we already know she's a "wizard" or...whatever you want to call all of that.
- Listen to Waiting Sorrow's tale.
- Waiting Sorrow: Little claw. There is...more to say.
- Waiting Sorrow: (breathes deeply) There's a version of this story that ould take me years to explain, but I...I owe this to you both.
- Waiting Sorrow: Thousands of years ago, long before Orr's prime,I...I was born of whispers.
- Waiting Sorrow: Visions and images. I was destined to become a Voice of Koda. The youngest the kodan of that era had seen.
- Waiting Sorrow: My Claw...He was kind. Fierce. He sat with me many a night as I acclimaed to my role. We bonded.
- Waiting Sorrow: But the dragonstorm raged outside our dens. And as the storm picked up...Koda's voice turned angry. My reality changed.
- Waiting Sorrow: I started losing myself. I couldn't trust the visions; they lied to me. I'm not certain it was Koda that I heard.
- Waiting Sorrow: I hated having a destiny, and I felt like a thread. So I left.
- Stoic Alder: I know this story.
- Isgarren: Sorrow came to me, and I helped her sever her tie to the Mists. Koda's voice no longer burdened her.
- Poised Arrow: You are the missing Voice of our ancestors?
- Waiting Sorrow: I am. And I have regretted leaving my people every day since. That's why I came here.
- Stoic Alder: My people are not a balm for your wounds.
- Waiting Sorrow: That's never how I meant it to be.
- Waiting Sorrow: I am sorry, Alder.
- Stoic Alder: Air is what I need.
- Check on Poky.
- Waiting Sorrow: Ah...
- Poised Arrow: I'll go to him. Has a habit of retreating into himself, he does.
- Poised Arrow: Sorrow. You are not the monster you fear.
- Speak to Isgarren
- Isgarren: They needed to know. You did what was necessary.
- Waiting Sorrow: And now they do.
- Isgarren: Wayfinder, back at the Wizard's Tower when you first returned Sorrow home... You may have noticed an air of tension.
- Isgarren: And...the mention of Mabon.
- Waiting Sorrow: It seems that our friend kept a few secrets under lock and key.
- Isgarren: Two hundred years ago, Mabon went to Bava Nisos right after the titans licked it clean... After the mursaat had been killed.
- Isgarren: Mabon told me he went to hide a Mists gate that they kept in the gut of the city...He placed a ward over the isle.
- Isgarren: But when he died, that ward fell. All of Bava Nisos, once again exposed to the world.
- Waiting Sorrow: I was with the lowlanders when it happened. Even they felt their fur stand up.
- <Character Name>: If it's still open, then we need to find it and do whatever we can to shut it.
- Waiting Sorrow: I agree, Wayfinder. Before any more titans are forged.
- Isgarren: Bava Nisos is the worst of Janthir. Maybe one of the worst waypoints in Tyria's history...
- Isgarren: The situation must be contained.
- <Character Name>: I guess we're headed to Bava Nisos, then.
- Isgarren: I'll inform the alliance.
