Random thoughts on some of Gorr's rambling.
On a side note, Gorr mentions that he got his test subjects from the Upsilon Test Facility.
Wait a minute…there’s a point of interest called the Upsilon Facility in Malchor’s Leap, that’s underwater and run by the Inquest… :o
So either that facility used to belong to another krewe and the Inquest kicked them out or…Gorr has associates in the Inquest, and might be one himself!
No feedback? I’m surprised. I would’ve thought that Gorr maybe having Inquest associates might be a little interesting at least. :/
I think it’s interesting!
One thing I think is neat about the Inquest is how they’re not strictly a criminal group in Asuran society. The Inquest appears just like a normal Asuran college in the Asura storyline (albeit one you can’t join, naturally,) and they appear to recruit new members in exactly the same way. (At least until the player gets involved.) They’re certainly better-tolerated than, say, the Sons of Svanir or the Flame Legion.
It’s hard to say whether the associates are Inquest or if their lab has been taken over. There’s plenty of academic theft going on in Asuran culture, so lab theft isn’t unlikely, either. And Gorr could very well be one himself.
i also found it interesting how the inquest & sons of svanir hold territory in rata sum & hoelbrak, respectively, but i haven’t noticed the other 3 races have this.
The Inquest are on good terms with the Arcane Council to an extent (one of the Council being a member, and the head of the council possibly being in their pocket as well).
As for the Sons of Svanir…I don’t really get why the other norn let them hang out so close, but the Sons behave themselves there at least. (Better than they normally do, anyway.)
there was a thread about the Sons of Svanir. can’t find it now but the basic idea was that while they abide by hoelbrak’s rules, it is in norn culture to tolerate them

Ah okay. So just as long as they don’t try murdering anyone there, they’re fine.
Basically. The Norn in general don’t agree with the Sons’ Jormag worship, but they still respect them and will tolerate their presence as long as they don’t outright start a battle in the city.
