story of guild wars 2 because with the

end of dragon's expansion looming on

the

horizon i want all that yummy law to be

fresh in my mind and as it spans seven

years twO expansions under five seasons

i think brushing up on the main

narrative arcs and characters is in

order needless to say spoilers ahead

so let's tarry knot and go back to 2012

where our heroes journey began each of

the five playable races has and had

different starting locations unique

cultural tales and supporting characters

along with lots of choices to be made in

act one chapter 1 a character is thrown

into the thick of a crisis sylvari

players defend their home the grove from

the nightmare courta faction of corrupt

sylvari assuming players vie for the

prestigious snaf prize whilst trying to

thwart the cheating inquest affection of

ruthless maniacal unethical assurancesif there are any other kind ciao players

must overcome the demise of their

warband and face off against the

outcasts of the flame legion more

information about the char of the flame

legend in this video here it's a bit of

a deep dive and finally non-players must

face the sons of svanier faction of

known who worship the elder dragon

jormug whilst trying to forge a legacy

worthy of remembrance

our character is also introduced to the

main hero nbc's in chapter one who act

as a mentor and guide to the player they

are the asuran zodia the cha ritlock

brimstone

the human logan valkyrie been known as

the goldkin

and the sylvari caith

these five were once members of the now

shattered destiny's edge guild the story

of whichi will cover later on in the

video for good reason trust me soshadows of the past act 1 chapter 2 has

the player confronting their past

allowing the writer to dive deeper into

the five races culture his street and

lands assuming players focus on the

ethical consequences of their

technological creations child players

must face the legacy of their sire

humans must face a loss of a close

member of their family non-players must

make amends for their past behavior and

the sylvari players have a variety of

stories which all introduced trahan

silvari firstborn

leader of the people and the foremost

expert on all matters related to the

elder dragon zaitan its undead minions

and the risen continent of all this will

become very important later on

in act 1 chapter 3 having proven

Ourselves and risen to prominence our

mentor introduces us to representatives

in three orders of tyria the order ofwhispers the vigil and the dermant

priory these multi-racial organizations

seek to recruit you and they all share a

singular primary objective combating the

threat posed by the elder dragons

however their methods and ethos vary

wildly and they hold each other in the

highest contempt

the oldest of the three by several

centuries is the order of whispers who

are the quintessential spymasters and

assassins of tyria their currency of

choice is information and they have

agents in every nation and power

structure they carry influences to

events from the shadows and they seek

to

return the elder dragons to their

dormant state without direct

confrontation the vigil is the newest of

the tyrion orders founded by general

al-mura's soulkeeper after crocodilic

branded leagues of char territory in the

blade ridge steps the vigil is alaw

it is at this point in our story that

the divergent threats of the five races

begin to converge and the primary

overarching narrative of our origin

story begins for we the player have been

born with great and a terrible purpose

we must face the elemental gods of

destruction the elder dragons and the

Scroll of the five true gods scholars of

the dermot priory were able to furnish

all but one of the six elder nightmares

with name and aspect crouchatoric elder

dragon of crystal and fury primordus

elder dragon of fire and conflagration

geomag elder dragon of ice and

persuasion modern moth elder dragon of

plant and mind zeitan elder dragon of

death and shadow and finally the

nameless deep sea dragon spoken of in

the movement of the world in the deepest

waters of the sea another dragonbreathed twisted the waters themselves

into tendrils of horror that rose from

every lake and a river of the land

of all these horrors it is zaitan who

took its place as the tip of the spear

for zaitan had already risen the

shattered continent of ore along with

its skeletal residence it had embarked

on a sustained if a low-intensity

invasion of the entire southern coast of

the sea of sorrows and its plague of

undeath infected all in its wake

in chapter three as before each race has

a different dragon related mystery or

puzzle to solve before they commit to

joining one of the orders human players

spreading on death and thought an

assassination attempt against queen

gore a researcher whose investigationshave uncovered that elder dragons might

be consuming magic
