Trader's Forum/historical

This article is about Trader's Forum during Living World Season 2. For the original Trader's Forum, see Trader's Forum (Memory of Old Lion's Arch).

After Battle for Lion's Arch.

The Trader's Forum is a section of Lion's Arch. This page mainly documents Western Ward as it was during Battle for Lion's Arch: Aftermath until Lion's Arch rebuilding.

Trader's Forum was once dominated by the Mystic Forge and contained (like the name suggested) many trade services. After the destruction of Lion's Arch it lies in ruins and the services have been spread around in other areas of the town. The Trader's Forum is located north of the Grand Piazza.

Ambient dialogue

Lionguard Brenn Hillow and Lionguard Quatta patrol (full patrol dialogue)

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: (sniff) Oh...(cough). I think I'm gonna be sick.

Lionguard Quatta: Huh, I thought we wouldn't be smelling the rest of the corpses until the weather changed. Guess not. Well, get in there.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: Get in where?

Lionguard Quatta: If Lionguard go in and reclaim the bodies, they get bonus pay. Get in there, kid. Make me proud.

Lionguard Quatta: How's it going in there?

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: (cough) Ugh.

Lionguard Quatta: Yeah, I bet it's the kind of odor that lingers in the back of your throat.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: I see...one, two, three sylvari and...oh, gods. There's a miasma pocket. Big one. What do we do?

Lionguard Quatta: Crap. There goes the bonus. Come on out. Pulling those weeds out of there ain't worth it. Let them rot.

Until May 19, 2015:

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: Why aren't we getting the sylvari bodies out of there?

Lionguard Quatta: We've got more important things to do. Look, what do you see?

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: A sylvari. He looks like he's trying to get back home.

Lionguard Quatta: Here we are, friendly, helpful Lionguard, risking our lives to help lying, cheating freaks like that. Heh, watch this.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: What are you—

Lionguard Quatta: Hey, you. Move along. Now.

Citizen: I'm not doing anything. I'm just lost and--

Lionguard Quatta: Oh, I know what you're doing. You're casing this home for looting, aren't you?

Citizen: You have me mistaken. I'm not a looter.

Lionguard Quatta: What? What aren't you? Say it so we can all hear it.

Citizen: A...a looter!

Lionguard Quatta: He admitted it! Get him!

Citizen: Please. Don't hurt me. I've never stolen anything in my life.

Lionguard Quatta: You were casing a house. Maybe...maybe it was my house. You know that looting's a crime and you were gonna do it anyway.

Citizen: My beloved has Scarlet's Rattle. I was exploring the city, trying to find work to pay for medicine. I heard of a treatment being made, in private. Expensive.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: (sigh) Aw, crap. Magnus told us about this in the morning briefing. Scammers promise a cure and the desperate pay everything they got.

Lionguard Quatta: Shut up. For all we know, this one is another Scarlet, just getting ready to kill us.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: This guy's a victim. He wasn't going to take anything.

Citizen: Yes! Yes! I wasn't looting. I'd never do so. You have to believe me. Please!

Lionguard Quatta: We lost hundreds, maybe thousands. This city stinks like an open grave.

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: St..stand down.

Lionguard Quatta: And it's all because of you and your damn kind!

Lionguard Brenn Hillow: I said: stand down! Okay then, let's head back to the fort and figure this out.

Lionguard Quatta: You're lucky my partner is here.

Citizen: I am.

Between Lion's Arch reconstruction until Lion's Arch Reborn

Consortium Surveyor: Can both claws fit there?

Consortium Surveyor: Down a little more. Keep, keep going.
