The Grand Piazza is located at the center of Lion's Arch. This page mainly documents Eastern Ward as it was during Battle for Lion's Arch: Aftermath until Lion's Arch rebuilding.

Ambient dialogue[edit]
During The Lost Shores[edit]
- During The Lost Shores Prelude
- Head Researcher Levvi: I've shown you the evidence. My conclusions are inescapable. Why won't you listen to me?
- Magnus the Bloody-Handed: I have listened. In fact, I'm sick of listening to you. The council has already ruled on this.
- Magnus the Bloody-Handed: We're not shutting down the world's busiest port because a machine spat out some numbers that made your ears twitch.
- Magnus the Bloody-Handed: When Lion's Arch is in real danger, the Lionguard will respond. Until then, sling your hook and shove off!
- Levvi walks back to her krewe's station.
- Head Researcher Levvi: Big surprise: Magnus still won't act. He and his precious council only care about commerce.
- Head Researcher Levvi: He won't listen until those readings we've been taking manifest as something he can hit.
- Researcher Farrowyn: By then it may be too late. Thorns! What do we do?
- Head Researcher Levvi: We keep researching. Something's coming, something big, and someone has to prepare for it.
During Sky Pirates of Tyria[edit]
- Marren: Merrik, what should we do?
- Roardina: We've heard people talking. They think we had something to do with the attack.
- Merrik: I've been thinking about what happened. It couldn't have been an accident.
- Merrik: Tell me, right now. Did any of you have anything to do with it?
- Broll: Of course not. Did you?
- Merrik: Never. I was born here, and I'll die here. I hate Dragon Bash, but I love my city.
- Merrik: We have a new charge. Tell everyone to keep their eyes open. We won't let this criminal get away with it.
After Battle for Lion's Arch: Aftermath[edit]
- Merchant (1): (sigh) Gnashblade is going to wipe us all out.
- Merchant (2): Yeah, I knew he had it made when Kiel appointed him the Lionguard quartermaster during the crisis.
- Merchant (1): They hate each other! Why would she... Oh, forget it.
During Lion's Arch Reconstruction[edit]
- Between Mystic Forge and Grand Piazza during reconstruction
- Consortium Surveyor: (chuckle) Jellyfish and manta rays...
- Construction Engineer: In all my years building things, I've never once shipped a structure in from somewhere else. Smart idea.
- Project Manager: I think that's the first time I've ever heard you say something positive.
- Construction Engineer: It's hard to be pessimistic about something like this. Lion's Arch will be a completely different place when we're done.
