Dialogue[edit]
- In Hall of Monuments
- Viewed through the Scrying Pool, many possibilities exist. Will you face the Twisted Marionette again with your allies?
- I'm ready to relive the battle. (Marionette—Private Squad)
- Not right now.
- Inside the marionette instance
- When your group is ready, have your leader speak with me. Until then, I will suspend the flow of this memory.
- My team is ready to defeat the Marionette. (starts the instance timer, the Mist Stranger soon disappears)
- I'll be back
During Halloween Bonus Bash[edit]
- While the Halloween Bonus Bash special event is active
- Welcome, <Character's specialization>. This world is in need of heroes your caliber. Prove yourself; reach level 10 and I will lend you a weapon to help forge your way.
- Well done. I will grant you a selection of main-hand weapons appropriate for a <Character's specialization>, but only once. Be confident in your choice.
- Then take this, and may it guide your path. Pick your favorite of the weapons within.
- Thank you.
Give me a <Character's profession> weapon.
- I've been thinking of trying other professions. Let me get back to you.
I've gained the strength required. (If level 10 or above)
- I cannot linger here forever; once the event that spurred me to these lands ends, I must depart. Perhaps we will meet again one day. I recommend you take action.
- I'll get to it.
How much time do I have?
- I'll be back.
- Allready received a weapon chest
- Welcome again, <Character name>. I hope your journey will continue to bring hope to Tyria, as did the heroes of the past.
- Thanks for the encouragement.
Note: This is a one-time per account proposition
Historical dialogue[edit]
- While the Wrath of the Twisted Marionette event is active
- The waters of the scrying pool stir—the memory of the Twisted Marionette intrudes on Tyria's reality.
- Show me the achievements.
- The Mists are a sea of never-ending possibility. In another time line, the marionette may have prevailed. You cannot allow such an event to ever happen, therefore you must relive and relearn.
- If victorious in reliving that moment, you may recover stable salvage and trophies that you can extract. Should this crisis be resolved with your aid, I will also reward your efforts.
- I'll consider it.
Other than the joy of winning, what's in it for me?
- Consider me a...warden of Tyria, not unlike you. I felt my guidance would be of aid. Who I am is no concern. At least for now.
- Huh.
You seem to know a bit about the Mists.
- Always another crisis...
"Intrudes on reality?"
- Good-bye.
- Otherwise
- The ripples have subsided—the Twisted Marionette returns to a memory.
- May it remain there.

- The profession chests he gives during the Halloween Bonus Bash special event are as follows:
