Okay so if you’re reading this, you’ve probably been around Lion’s Arch by now and seen the damage and distraught citizens.
If you have not been through there already, then prepare for spoilers.
YE HAVE BEEN WARNED
Okay so I want to direct attention towards Ellyna Graidy’s prayers for her deceased father at the memorial cemetery. Her broken voiced, tear-filled prayers for her father are very heavy and coupled with the music makes it absolutely heart-wrenching.
However, I feel that some of her messages are said too fast. Not the speech audio itself, but the delay between the messages that show on screen.
I think there should be a slight longer delay between each messages so that it’s slightly slower and make it a bit more heavy.
Aside from that, it’s a beautiful, incredibly sad and touching moment. Especially with the Lion’s Lament in the background. Tears were shed. Just about.
That is all.

And then you talk to her and either she doesn’t remember that you were the one that saved her, and left her father there to die, or she nearly threatens to kill you because you’re a Sylvari.

Everything’s on fire, your dad refuses to leave, your co-workers are scared, there’s dead bodies everywhere, three armored people protect you from vicious flame-wielders. Some people remember every detail of a catastrophe, others can only think of a single person.

When I pass through Lion’s Arch I can’t help but think for a moment that somehow I failed. It’s like I played the game and lost. Obviously I have no influence over the story, but it still feels like I should have done more.

I would accept this if not for the fact that I talked to her later in the refugee camp and she knew exactly who I was. So…

Oh we definitely failed. We’ve been failing repeatedly for a year and the ultimate end was just more failure. We accomplished absolutely nothing. Even killing Scarlet accomplished nothing. So you should feel the way you do.

good question though is how can you feel like you failed when you never had a chance to succeed? I like how the play loss of npc life this time it was completely missed in queens juballie and why people though scarlet was cartoony the entire time. When she kill everyone in the audience. We only where able to save 3 people out of the entire stadium. Now if “Gwens” dead body was there i think people would care a lot more.

If they somehow had Gwen’s dead body there, I’d dance for them reviving her just to kill her off again. No, not really, I’d ask why the heck didn’t she show up to keep the charr out of Ascalon City so King Adelbern didn’t blow everything up. She’s Gwen the Goremonger.
