Dialogue[edit]
Vigilant Hills[edit]
- Entering the instance
- Rox: Aaargh! Could that have been any worse?
- Braham Eirsson: We saved some, but how many people are still in there? (huff) I'm going to break Scarlet in half.
- Rox: Hold on to that thought. It won't be long before we get another chance to go back in.
- Braham Eirsson: Next time, we save as many as we can. I'm not stopping until they have to carry me out.
- Rox: Rawr!
- Braham Eirsson: Is it time yet?
- Rox: No, Braham. Be patient. We can't go in too soon. The miasma has to dissipate first.
- Braham Eirsson: How come Marjory's antidote isn't working anymore?
- Rox: Seems Scarlet improved her recipe. She's an impressive alchemist.
- Braham Eirsson: Is there anything she doesn't do well?
- Rox: Make friends?
- Braham Eirsson: Good point.
- Talking with Taimi
- Taimi: I keep hearing the most terrible stories from the people coming out of Lion's Arch. Is it all true? Is Scarlet really responsible for all these deaths?
Those and more.
- I set up Scruffy's holo-emitter to link with Vorpp's assistant golems in the other evacuation camps. If it'll help, you can use him to see the recordings of what's going on.
- It'll help most if you stay safe here for now, but thanks..
- Indubitably! I'm a genius after all... But don't tell Vorpp, okay? I mean it. Don't tell Vorpp.
I won't.
Most definitely.
- Scruffy: There are simple drawn diagrams attached to Scruffy's controls. This must be the hologram-recording setup Taimi mentioned.
- Access record set: Braham's Friends M & K
- Several recording labels appear on the display:
- Recording: Leaving Lion's Arch
- Kasmeer Meade: I don't think we're going to win this battle.
- Marjory Delaqua: I know what you mean. For every one we save, three more die. You can stay here, if you'd like.
- Kasmeer Meade: Not if you're going back in. We're a team.
- Marjory Delaqua: Even if we only save one more, it's worth it.
- Kasmeer Meade: Agreed.
- Recording: Mesmer Magic
- Marjory Delaqua: You're cold.
- Kasmeer Meade: F-f-freezing.
- Marjory Delaqua: Too bad you can't mesmer up a fur cloak to keep you warm
- Kasmeer Meade: (laugh) I don't need one. I have you. Come on over here.
- Marjory Delaqua: With Pleasure.
- Recording: Two Orders
- Kasmeer Meade: So, when did you join the Durmand Priory?
- Marjory Delaqua: Shortly after I quit the guard. I knew I'd need to be able to tap a good source of information to be a detective.
- Kasmeer Meade: I'm surprised you didn't choose the Order of Whispers.
- Marjory Delaqua: Those rats? Nah. They're too secretive, even among themselves.
- Kasmeer Meade: Besides, dressed as you are, I bet you stand out more at the Priory than among Whispers.
- Marjory Delaqua: (laugh) Exactly. Presentation is everything.
- Recording: Human Religion
- Kasmeer Meade: I wonder how Rox and Braham are doing.
- Marjory Delaqua: Knowing them, they're probably happy as clams, tearing into Aetherblades or toxic krait.
- Kasmeer Meade: I'm really glad we've all met. I have a good feeling about our little guild.
- Marjory Delaqua: It was serendipity, perhaps. Or the gods may still be watching over us after all.
- Kasmeer Meade: I choose to believe they are. Praise the Six.
- Recording: Human Family Units
- Kasmeer Meade: What was it like for you? In the Ministry Guard
- Marjory Delaqua: It was a job like any other job. Except I got to eat, sleep, and breathe it.
- Kasmeer Meade: When did you join?
- Marjory Delaqua: As soon as I was able. My father...isn't nice like yours was. Nor is my family wealthy.
- Kasmeer Meade: I'm sorry.
- Marjory Delaqua: Not your fault. It is what it is.
- Kasmeer Meade: Do you see your family?
- Marjory Delaqua: My mother, yes. And my sisters. Not my father. Not if I can avoid it.
- Recording: Human Stuff(?)
- Kasmeer Meade: So, this is what it's like to have a mission. To be an adventurer. Danger, risk.
- Marjory Delaqua: You don't have to do this, sweetheart.
- Kasmeer Meade: I know I don't. But, being with you has made me want to be a better person.
- Kasmeer Meade: And this is what better people do.
- Marjory Delaqua: You're already nigh perfect in my eyes.
- Kasmeer Meade: Careful there, Miss Delaqua. You're going to make me blush.
- Recording: Going Back In
- Marjory Delaqua: Looks like the miasma's clearing out. You sure you wouldn't rather stay here?
- Kasmeer Meade: Not on your life. Where you go, I go.
- Marjory Delaqua: Kas—
- Kasmeer Meade: C'mon! Let's go save some people.
Go back to the set selection.- I've seen enough.
- Access record set: Captains M & K (Note to self: coincidence?)
- Several recording labels appear on the display:
- Recording: Captain Wakes Up
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: (groan) Kiel!
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Right here.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Fort Marriner?
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Fallen.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Damn. (cough) Need... to... get... (cough)
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Rest, Magnus. You need to rest.
- Recording: Norn Eyes
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: My eyes. What happened?
- Captain Ellen Kiel: The medics could only save one. I'm sorry.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: (cough) Don't be. Haven't had a good scar in ages.
- Recording: Lionguard
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: How are the Lionguard holding up?
- Captain Ellen Kiel: We've taken heavy losses and we're stretched thin, according to the runners going back and forth between the camps.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Send the word to nearby havens to donate whatever they can.
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Already done. But it'll take days to get supplies back to the rally camps.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: My other eye for a proper supply line.
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Save that eye. I've got something up my sleeve.
- Recording: Captain's Council
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Did the rest of the Council make it out?
- Captain Ellen Kiel: It was rough, but everyone evacuated. They're at camps to the north and east.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: We have to get to them. We have to push back and retake the city.
- Recording: Booting Scarlet
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Ellen...
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Right here.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Been thinking. I should have pushed the Council more. I should have made them listen to you. Maybe I wouldn't have failed holding Fort Marriner.
- Captain Ellen Kiel: Magnus, don't. We did all we could.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Hell of a thing being right about an impending disaster. But we'll take back the fort, and the city.
- Captain Ellen Kiel: And then put a boot upside Scarlet's head.
- Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed: Damn right.
- Go back to the set selection.
- I've seen enough.
- Access record set: Bloodtide Coast Miscellaneous
- Several recording labels appear on the display:
- Recording: Miasma symptoms
- Aid Worker Symon: Three more cases of the rattling cough. The sick aren't responding to standard healing incantations.
- Aid Worker Brokka: Collect sputum samples from the infected, and bring them to the Red Labs immediately.
- Aid Worker Symon: At once, Lightbringer. What should we do about the sick?
- Aid Worker Brokka: There's little we can do for them. Focus on gathering as much intelligence as we can.
- Aid Worker Brokka: And don't call me Lightbringer. We're aid volunteers from Sparkfly Fen. Adhere to the cover.
- Aid Worker Symon: Understood.
- Recording: Drill Platform (Note to self: "Breachmaker"?)
- Aid Worker Symon: The refugees keep mentioning a sky platform with a drill burrowing for something in the harbors of Lion's Arch.
- Aid Worker Brokka: I'll let the master know. Keep talking with the refugees. It'll have to do until we get operatives inside the city.
- Recording: Other camps
- Aid Worker Symon: I've gotten confirmation of Priory and Vigil relief camps set up in Lornar's Pass and Gendarran Fields.
- Aid Worker Brokka: But we're still not getting word from our informants there. Odd.
- Recording: Scarlet's Motives
- Aid Worker Symon: Have the Preceptors deciphered Scarlet's true motive with Lion's Arch?
- Aid Worker Brokka: If they have, they haven't announced it.
- Aid Worker Symon: I imagine her erratic behavior is proving cryptic to traditional analysis.
- Go back to the set selection.
- Access record set: Lornar's Pass Miscellaneous
- Several recording labels appear on the display:
- Recording: Miasma Effectiveness
- Priory Magister Vallen: Strange. The gas weapon isn't the same as the nightmare pollen from the Kessex Hills tower.
- Priory Novice Ailis: I could have sworn they'd be related.
- Priory Magister Vallen: I did too. This agent is far worse. It's corrosive on contact and lethal in large doses.
- Recording: Scarlet's Ultimate Weapon?
- Priory Novice Ailis: Any progress on a vaccine for the miasma?
- Priory Magister Vallen: None. It doesn't correspond to any known antitoxin.
- Priory Novice Ailis: What in Durmand's name are we dealing with?
- Priory Magister Vallen: A climbing fatality rate for the refugees ...and perhaps Scarlet's ultimate weapon.
- Recording: Hyleks on Miasma
- Priory Novice Ailis: I've been in touch with the hyleks, as you asked. They've found the poison—in small doses—will work its way out of the survivor's body.
- Priory Magister Vallen: It's not wholly fatal? That's fantastic news.
- Priory Novice Ailis: It depends on the potency of the dose and time exposed to the miasma.
- Priory Magister Vallen: When the wind shifts, we can assault Lion's Arch. Wait, how did the Hylek determine this?
- Priory Novice Ailis: The didn't tell me directly. I heard something about bonfires.
- Recording: Survivor Interviews
- Priory Magister Vallen: Have you begun compiling the eyewitness reports for the scholars?
- Priory Novice Ailis: Magister, I'm...not sure questioning the refugees so soon after the disaster is a good idea.
- Priory Novice Ailis: While I'm not a medical professional, they are exhibiting classic signs of mental trauma.
- Priory Novice Ailis: Perhaps it would be better to let them gather their wits...or at least have a good night's sleep in our camp.
- Priory Magister Vallen: We gave eyewitnesses to history, novice. Records must be kept of this moment. Do your duty.
- Recording: Survivor Interview Follow Up
- Priory Novice Ailis: Tell me, what did you see? What happened in the city?
- Refugee: I...please, I can't talk about it.
- Priory Novice Ailis: I know this is difficult, but you were an eyewitness. Please, share what you have seen.
- Refugee: Is this all that you can think about right now?
- Refugee: I lost my son. My only son. Put that in your scroll.
- Priory Novice Ailis: I didn't mean—
- Refugee: Go away. Now!
- Go back to the set selection.
- I'll check these later.
- Approaching the medical tent
- Lionguard Corpsman: You're finally taking a break?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: Turns out I got a volunteer.
- Lionguard Corpsman: Is that a golem?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: Don't knock it. It doesn't sleep, doesn't need to eat, doesn't feel demoralized by dying patients.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: The thing just showed up, wanting to help. At this point, I could use it.
- Heal-o-Tron: Greetings, I—am Heal-o-Tron. I—will—be—your—designated—health-repair—unit.
- Wounded Lionguard (norn): Oh no. (cough) No, no no. I'm not getting worked on by a machine.
- Heal-o-Tron: Negative—thinking—impairs—recuperation. Please—remain—calm. Now, tell—me—where—you—are—ailing.
- Wounded Lionguard (norn): (cough) Are you joking?
- Heal-o-Tron: Does—this—unit—match—the—appearance—of—a—no-talent—minstrel? Now, report—your—injury—status. Any—delay—could—mean—your—expiration.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway moves to Wounded Lionguard.
- Heal-o-Tron: Analyzing—miasma—aerosol.
- Lionguard Corpsman: You can do that?
- Heal-o-Tron: Consortium—programming—offers—basic—analysis—of—chemical—compounds. Analysis—underway.
- Lionguard Corpsman: Can you find a cure?
- Heal-o-Tron: For—current—late-stage—patients, negative.
- Heal-o-Tron: However, infection—appears—to—be—counteracted—by—subaether—harmonics—in—a—localized—energy—field.
- Wounded Lionguard (charr): (cough) Where am I?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: A Lionguard field hospital.
- Wounded Lionguard (charr): (cough) Can barely breathe. Lungs and eyes feel on fire.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: It'll pass. You need to take it easy. Now, I need your name and unit, for the records.
- Wounded Lionguard (charr): Drax Tinderstride, Private. Sixth Harbor detail. (cough)
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: That's fine, soldier. Get some rest.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway moves to Lionguard Corpsman.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: He'll be gone in an hour. Add his name to the list.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway moves to Refugee Camp Coordinator.
- Approaching Vigil Keep
- Crusader Breachstride: You see all the dead Lionguard they've been pulling out of the city?
- Tactician Hazardclaw: Shh. Not around the civilians.
- Approaching Evon Gnashblade
- Evon Gnashblade: I warned Magnus. I warned Kiel! I warned them all. I told them Scarlet was going to attack the city.
- Evon Gnashblade: And did the Council listen? No! Because of them, your friends, your neighbors. Dead.
- Evon Gnashblade: Now I know why he's Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed. He has the blood of all those innocent people of Lion's Arch on his hands.
- Lionguard Jirtta: Evon Gnashblade?
- Evon Gnashblade: What is it? Shouldn't you be failing at your job somewhere?
- Lionguard Jirtta: You've been hereby conscripted into Lionguard service under General Emergency Statute 14.
- Evon Gnashblade: You're joking. Someone tell me this sorry idiot is playing a joke on me.
- Lionguard Jirtta: For the duration of the emergency, you and Black Lion Trading Post agents will act as deputy quartermasters outfitting all active personnel.
- Evon Gnashblade: And what if I refuse? What if I pull up stakes and leave you suckers in the dust?
- Lionguard Jirtta: Considering you are now technically a Lionguard supply officer, desertion would mean confiscation of your wares and summary execution.
- Evon Gnashblade: So, it's either get robbed blind by you Lionguard or get hanged?
- Lionguard Jirtta: Firing squad, actually. And it's not "you" or "us" anymore, Quartermaster Gnashblade.
- Lionguard Jirtta: Speaking of which, we need two dozen swords, a dozen axes, twenty shields, and forty rifles.
- Evon Gnashblade: (grumble)
- Evon Gnashblade: Just tell me one thing. Kiel—she's dead, right? C'mon, give a guy good news.
- Lionguard Jirtta: She and Captain Magnus are at a relief camp to the south. And your deputizing was Captain Kiel's idea.
- Evon Gnashblade: Of course it was.
- Returning to Vigilant Hills camp
- Crusader Breachstride: The enemy's in there. Why are we standing around with our weapons in our hands?
- Tactician Hazardclaw: Save that energy. We'll be leading the charge just as soon as a gust pushes the miasma out to sea.
- Crusader Breachstride: Hmpf. Damn miasma.
- Returning to medical tent
- Seraph Sergeant: Are you in charge here?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You have a complaint? And I was having such a good day.
- Seraph Sergeant: Official Seraph business, ma'am. We're looking for a golem. It's been—
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You're kidding. I thought you were the first of a relief effort from Divinity's Reach, but you're here for a golem?
- Seraph Soldier: Have you seen one? Small, ovoid shaped, two arms, hovers. Sarcastic tone.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: Yes, it's my backup medic.
- Seraph Soldier: You are ordered to hand over the golem immediately.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You want me to give over the only other combat medic I have? Go eat your sword.
- Seraph Sergeant: Orders are orders. The golem is wanted on an outstanding warrant.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: What's the charge?
- Seraph Sergeant: Aiding and abetting a known mass murderer—Scarlet Briar.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You're joking! No, I don't think you've ever joked in your life.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: Gods...I'll go find him.
- Heal-o-Tron moves to the group.
- Heal-o-Tron: This—unit—was—summoned. How—may—I—assist—you?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: These Seraph say you helped Scarlet. Fess up. Is it true?
- Heal-o-Tron: Negative.
- Seraph Sergeant: It's lying. It was seen in Scarlet's presence when she attacked the Queen's Jubilee.
- Heal-o-Tron: I—was—captured—and—forced—into—Scarlet's—service. This—unit—has—no—loyalty—to—her.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: See? Now either help with the wounded or leave. We've got injured to treat.
- Seraph Sergeant: It seems this golem left out a few crucial details, such has his being found guilty of aiding Scarlet.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You were found guilty of helping the psycho who's hammering our city?
- Heal-o-Tron: Affirmative. However—
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: However, nothing. Get away from my patients. You're probably behind what put them here. Get out!
- Seraph Sergeant: You heard the lady. Come with us. Now.
- Heal-o-Tron: Negative. I—paid—my—debt—to—the—people—of—Divinity's—Reach. I—raised—thousands—of—gold—for—them—during—Wintersday.
- Heal-o-Tron: I—overheard—Seraph—talking—about—using—this—unit—to—
- Seraph Sergeant: Enough. Come along right now. You have nowhere to run.
- Heal-o-Tron: Negative! I—will—find—an—alternate—solution. This—unit—is—no—longer—in—your—possession.
- Heal-o-Tron stealths and runs to Evon Gnashblade.
- Evon Gnashblade: You want a combat chassis and an energy amplifier, but no weapons? What are you, crazy?
- Heal-o-tron: Logic—circuits—are—nominal. Is—this—design—feasible?
- Evon Gnashblade: Yeah. The amplifier—that'll take a while. I'll be honest. Never had a golem customer.
- Heal-o-tron: Will—this—irregular—customer—interaction—delay—delivery?
- Evon Gnashblade: No. Now, I don't usually ask this, but what's all this for? I mean, the Lionguard's watching me close.
- Evon Gnashblade: You ain't gonna kill us all in some golem uprising, right?
- Heal-o-tron: Negative. Nonhostile—intent.
- Evon Gnashblade: You better be right.
- Evon Gnashblade: This design of yours. You want to take a beating, but not dish it out?
- Heal-o-tron: Affirmative.
- Evon Gnashblade: Yeah, I'm gonna have to be asking for payment in advance.
- Heal-o-tron: Error: I—lack—the—sufficient—funds.
- Evon Gnashblade: Then go away. I don't work for free. Well, except for the Lionguard these days. Damn that Kiel.
- Heal-o-tron: Accessing—pleading—subroutine.
- Evon Gnashblade: A begging golem. This oughta be a laugh.
- Heal-o-tron: This—unit—paid—its—debt—to—Divinity's—Reach. The—Seraph—want—to—use—me—for—an—endless—series—of—tasks.
- Heal-o-tron: If—I—can—aid—in—the—assault—against—Scarlet, I—calculate—the—act—will—earn—goodwill—and—prove—I—am—not—her—minion.
- Evon Gnashblade: Sounds like the Seraph won't care. But the Captain's Council might. Hmmm.
- Evon Gnashblade: Maybe we can come to some kind of arrangement.
- Approaching Rox and Braham again
- Rox: It's almost that time. You ready, Braham?
- Braham Eirsson: Ready to kill some bad guys and save some innocents? Do you even have to ask?
- Rox: (chuckle) I just like to hear you say it.
- Braham Eirsson: I'm ready!

Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed, Captain's Council, Lion's Arch We are taking back Lion's Arch! The Lionguard have regrouped, and we are ready. With our allies from the Vigil, Durmand Priory, and the Order of Whispers, we will storm Lion's Arch, establish rally positions, cut down Scarlet's forces, and take the fight to Scarlet herself. After a year of suffering, invasion, and death at her hands, we have Scarlet right where we want her. Come to Lion's Arch with your rage and your best weapons. Show no mercy to Scarlet and her damned followers. Today begins a battle that will be sung about for years to come. Fight alongside me as we take back our city and wipe Scarlet off the face of Tyria forever. To battle!—Captain Magnus the Bloody-Handed |
- Talking with allies
- Braham Eirsson: I keep thinking back to Queen's Jubilee when we saw Scarlet for the first time. She was a joke back then, compared to this.
- I see what you mean.
- She's not playing anymore, is she?
- No. She has a very sinister motive.
- No one goes to all this trouble for nothing. She must be expecting a huge reward.
- Yes, she must be.
- Rox: This could have been much worse if you hadn't figured out that her target was Lion's Arch. Between seeing the probe change and sorting through Scarlet's trash, you saved lives.
- I'm glad I could help.
- Braham and I were ready because you warned us. We evacuated a lot of citizens who'd be dead now. Between Scarlet's thus' murdering and the miasma choking them to death, it's ugly in there.
- Be ready. We're not done yet.
- Lionguard Healer Halloway: You're walking and talking. Good news: you're not about to die. If you need more medical aid, tak a number. We'll get to you as soon as we can.
- Who are you?
- Lionguard Healer Halloway, Second Medical Response Squad. Unless you have any more questions, I need to get back to my patients.
- What's going on here? (same as "What's happening?")
- What happened to these people?
- Blunt force trauma from falling rubble, combat wounds, and minor burns. The worst is the miasma gas. It's killing one out of every two patients.
- Tell me more about the miasma.
- The few who survived said it's like being scraped from the inside out. They got a cough that'll haunt them until they die.
- And normal healing doesn't work?
- Most people were trapped in the city and breathed in so much of the gas they're beyond my care. I can only make them comfortable.
- What can I do? (same as "Is there anything I can do?")
- Take care.
- What can I do to help? (same as "Is there anything I can do?")
- Thanks for the update.
- Is there anything I can do?
- Most of the Lionguard is either sick or dead, and people are still trapped in the city with that gas. They'll have a fighting chance if you get can[sic] them out.
- Will do.
- I wish you luck.
- Good luck.
- What's happening?
- Where have you been? That crazy plant, Scarlet, has bombed and gassed Lion's Arch. I can't begin to count the dead. I just know the wounded keep coming.
- What are they suffering from? (same as "What happened to these people?")
- I'll be going now.
- Uh, thanks.
- Lionguard Corpsman: Let's see. You don't appear to be ailing. That's a relief. We've been deluged by sick and dying day and night.
- What happened?
- Scarlet! She appeared out of nowhere and blasted the city to pieces. I, Healer Halloway, and these poor souls managed to flee before the carnage ensued.
- Why not go in the city and get to those wounded?
- It's not advised. There's a terrible gas that's enshrouding Lion's Arch. Terribly caustic. Most of those who inhale it expire in agony.
- Sounds terrible.
- The worst are the youth. They witnessed the deaths of their parents, and now they pass away in a camp like this one alone and in pain.
- What can I do to help?
- Healer Halloway can advise you better about these matters. Be careful. I don't desire to see you on a cot here.
- Take care.
- I...need to go.
- Got it.
- Best of luck
- Heal-o-Tron: Greetings. Scanning—for—injuries. Results: you—are—in—nominal—health. Diagnosis: you—are—not—yet—dead. Maintain—this—status—for—optimal—existence.
- Ho-Ho-Tron? Is that you? [verification requested]
- Correct—and—incorrect. Ho-Ho-Tron—is—a—former—designation. Current—designation: Heal-o-Tron. Health—tip: consume—fruits—and—vegetables—for—optimal—health—status.
- What are you doing out here?
- This—unit—is—medically—assisting—the—Lionguard—for—the—duration—of—the—disaster. Health—tip: decapitations—reduce—optimal—health—status.
- You can do that?
- This—unit's—Consortium—programming—contains—a—detailed—medical—and—biological—database. This—unit—can—treat—more—than—421—types—of—injuries.
- Impressive, but why are you doing this?
- Why the name change?
- I'm guessing that will come in handy now.
- I get that, but why?
- A—previous—datapoint—had—this—unit—in—Scarlet's—possession. This—unit—was—blamed—for—Scarlet's—actions—and—forced—to—perform—recompensatory—acts.
- So, you want to prove you're own...golem, right?
- Correct. Using—this—unit's—medical—knowledge—to—aid—anti-Scarlet—forces—is—the—most—logical—way—to—prove—this—unit's—disloyalty—to—Scarlet.
- Wouldn't killing Scarlet be a better way?
- This—unit—possesses—no—combat—datafiles. Fighting—Scarlet—would—be—a—suboptimal—approach.
- So, why the name change?
- What do you know about the attack on Lion's Arch.
- Good-bye.
- Interesting plan.
- What do you know about the attack on Lion's Arch?
- I'll be going now.
- Why the name change?
- What do you know about the attack on Lion's Arch?
- Thanks.
- Why the name change?
- This—unit's—new—duties—require—a—new—moniker. Heal-o-Tron—optimally—describes—this—unit's—new—role. Health—tip: daily—vitamins—should—only—be—inserted—orally.
- Why are you doing this?
- Thanks.
- What do you know about the attack on Lion's Arch?
- This—unit—lacks—current—knowledge—of—Lion's—Arch. Health—tip: do—not—clean—teeth—with—greatsword.
- Why are you doing this?
- Good to knows.
- Good to know.
- Thanks, I guess.
- Evon Gnashblade: More people would be alive if the council listened to me. But you got me out in one piece. Let me make it up to you with something from my private stocks.
- First you leave me to die, and now you're lying about you warning the council.
- Call me a liar again and I'll pull out your tongue and nail it to my nightstand.
- Marjory, Kasmeer, and I deduced Lion's Arch was going to be the target. We sent a message to Kiel. What was your proof of Scarlet's attack?
- I...uh. It made sense. She hit everywhere else. It was a matter of time.
- Good for you. You guessed a city-wide massacre. Stop lying and stick to selling goods.
- Good-bye.
- How are you doing out here?
- Better than most of my customers, who are dead thanks to those useless Lionguard. Any fahrar would have held the city better than those failures.
- That's harsh.
- My business is in tatters, and I'm surrounded by refugees who can't buy my stock. Yeah, my day is looking up.
- I'll be going now.
- I'll be going.
- Not right now.
- Seraph Sergeant: Have you seen a small golem? Ovoid, single eye, pair of arms, floats, criminal tendencies? Last know alias "Ho-Ho-Tron"?
- Oh, that thing. It was asking for donations during Wintersday, right? [verification requested]
- That's the culprit. We're on the lookout for it. If you happen to see it, let us know. It's a matter of utmost importance.
- What's the problem?
- We think it's gone renegade during a mission for Divinity's Reach, and we're attempting to relocate it. That's all I can say for now.
- Good-bye.
- Good-bye.
- Canach: I dread what will happen to Lion's Arch. Scarlet's lunacy will stain the streets before she's stopped. Assuming she can be.
- Good-bye.
- Sheriff Siriam: Please refrain from speaking with the prisoner. He's not supposed to be in contact with the public.
- Why is he out here then?
- The Lion's Arch jail has been compromised due to Scarlet's invasion. This prisoner was evacuated as part of the general city-wide exodus.
- What did he do? (same as below)
- Thanks.
- What did he do?
- Months ago, the prisoner endangered hundreds of lives at Southsun Cove while claiming to be aiding exploited workers.
- Why is he out here then? (same as above)
- Good-bye.
- Good-bye.
- Bloomanoo: Oh, hoo. Quagg-gg-ggan is f-f-freezing. Have you seen Lion's Arch?
- Not recently. Why?
- Boo. Quaggan is sorry to tell you that Lion's Arch is foo'd. Scarlet sent her poisons and her army to destroy it.
- I'll have to go see.
- What are quaggans supposed to do now? First the krait and Nightmare Court chase quaggans out, and now that Scarlet sylvari has ruined everything.
- At least you're safe here.
- That's what they said about Lion's Arch. Are quaggans not safe anywhere anymore?
- I don't think any of us are safe anymore. What are you going to do?
- Quaggans want to go where it's warm. Quaggans hope that will be Lion's Arch. Do you think the city will be rescued?
- We're doing our best. Stay here for now. Stay together.
- Quaggans will. And if you can't save Lion's Arch, quaggans will begin a journey southward, to clear blue seas.
- I hope you find them.
- Hang in there.
- Hang in there.
- Good luck.
- Time to move.
- Later.
- Peneloopee: Oh, foo. Did you get kicked out of Lion's Arch too? Quaggan is sorry, but glad you're here too. You can protect quaggans now.
- I see you two are still together.
- Oh yes. Together forever. Quaggans were going to make a pod in Lion's Arch, but that dream is now squished. Quaggan hopes Scarlet gets plant louse.
- Something is sure eating Scarlet's brain.
- You'll be safe here.
- Lionguard Goldclaw: To see Lion's Arch burning... I fear the joy of the fight may have gone out of me. I once longed for the seduction of the blade, but now... We've one more fight before I can pursue a life of love.
- A "life of love"? Are you sweet on anyone?
- I am "sweet" on the world, my scrumptiously curious friend. Outside of my Lionguard duties, I write in my spare time. I write about a...different kind of dance.
- Oh, yeah?
- You may see my books line the shelves one day, but today... Today, we must throw our sweating bodies into the fray. Clashing together in the chaotic harmony of battle, until our city is recaptured.
- Let's do this.
- Commodore Lawson Marriner: Ah, another tossed overboard from the city. Have a rope yarn, sailor. I need to plan relief efforts. [verification requested]
- Thanks.
- Captain Hao Luen: Please do not think me rude, but I have much to do. Perhaps the Lionguard will be better able to aid you.
- Good-bye.
- Torina Panney: I'm not supposed to talk to strangers, and you look pretty strange. [verification requested]
- Same to you.
- Glomm: My business is ruined. I don't know how I'll cope with this.
- I'm sorry.
- Jennivere Borden: Why aren't the other cities coming to our aid? Balloons? Is that the best Divinity's Reach can do?
- I don't know.
- Relott: My store went up in flames. I barely got out alive.
- Take care.
- Yolla: Three generations of family business up in smoke.
- Good luck.
- Jordyn: Have you seen a charr named Tinderstride? He saved my life at the harbor. I haven't been able to find him.
- He's probably around here somewhere.
- Beggar: I can't believe it. One minute everything was fine; the next, the city was crumbling.
- You're safe now.
- Local: You can hear screaming coming from the city. I hear it in my sleep. I don't think I'll ever stop hearing it.
- I need to go.
- Citizen (male human): I lost my wife to the gas. I almost wish I passed away with her.
- I...I'm sorry.
- Citizen (female human): I spent six years building my store. It's all gone.
- Good-bye.
- Citizen (female asura): I had him in my arms the whole way. The moment I got here, they took my Rollan from me to a mass grave. I couldn't even say good-bye.
- Leave.
- Citizen (male asura): I keep thinking I'm going to wake up back home, safe and warm in Lion's Arch.
- At least you're safe here.
- Farmer: I don't know if I'll ever get home again.
- At least you're safe here.
Open world[edit]
- Talking with Lionguard Peltgnaw
- Lionguard Peltgnaw: Commander, it's a relief to see you joining the offensive. The Lionguard, the Orders, and our allies are pushing in from all sides. We are retaking Lion's Arch. Here and now. Are you with us?
- I'm ready to go. (opens prompt to join The Battle For Lion's Arch)
- I'm not ready yet.
