“This fractal was created to study what would happen if ley-line energy overflowed without containment. Nature has reclaimed this Maguuma, and a unique ecosystem has flourished. One that's worth preserving. While there is much to be done, please resist the urge to slash and burn your way through here in the process.
— Callista during Island Discovery Tour
Primal Maguuma is an area in the northern potion of Skywatch Archipelago. It's an artificial fractal made to study the effects of the Maguuma Jungle growing out of control[1] and ley-line energy overflowing over longer periods of time, and their effects on life around it.[2]

Ambient dialogue[edit]
- Entering the area for the first time
- Callista: This fractal was created to study what would happen if ley-line energy overflowed without containment.
- Callista: Nature has reclaimed this Maguuma, and a unique ecosystem has flourished. One that's worth preserving.
- Callista: While there is much to be done, please resist the urge to slash and burn your way through here in the process.
- East of Matriarch's Nest
- Scout Rorik: I know there is no such thing as a good assignment, but we sure got screwed with this one.
- Technicial Trella: Well, sure, but look on the bright side: once you get past the bugs, and the disease, and the heat, and the humidity...
- Technicial Trella: Oh, who am I kidding? Ugh, I hate this place! All my equipment keeps overheating, and I can't keep the bugs out of my shoes!
- Scout Rorik: I'd burn this whole place down if Callista could let us.
- North of Hidden Falls
- Rift Hunter Ilga: It's time to face it, Woo-Jae: we are lost. I have no idea where the target location even is anymore.
- Rift Hunter Woo-Jae: This damn jungle is a labyrinth. We could be going in circles, for all I know! We should've had them map it for us first.
- Rift Hunter Ilga: Well, look, it's an island, right? So if we just go in a straight line, we should hit the edge eventually.
- Rift Hunter Woo-Jae: Well, it won't get us to the target, but at least we won't be trapped out here. All right, let's do that.
