It’s up! I have to say that I am really enjoying Scott’s writing.

I don’t know how I feel about how servile the Aetherblades are towards Scarlet. It doesn’t seem very piraty. :\

Turma seems pretty cool. A big improvement from Kiel. Hopefully she remains a background character and doesn’t end up stealing the spotlight all the time.

Thank god the Living Story has a female lead after so long. The women are just so unrepresented in the Living Story. We really needed a tough chick to show the men how it’s done.

So, deputy Turma. I remember her, she was standing right next do Kiel at Southsun Cove. I wonder if Kiel would have been the one Magnus would send if the outcome of the election had been different. For now, I am happy that I won’t have to deal with Kiel. I hope that I won’t end up hating Turma too.
I thought Turma was a “corrupt cop” when I started reading, but then I remembered that keeping stolen goods must be pretty common to the Lionguard (like with the Pact’s Ship). I mean, it is a city of pirates.

Anyway, I was really hoping that Scarlet invaded TA, killing courtiers and settling there against their will. Too bad they let her in. I wonder what she promised them… I mean, “making people cry or whatever” was a guess, it is probably something more important than that.

Good read. Now they need to find a way to put it in the game.

It has to be a joke.

I’m sure somebody will double-cross somebody else. Pirates and Nightmare Court are not trustworthy people. “You have outlived your usefulness” is a common motto for such groups.

Anyway, fun story. I got a kick out of an Asura in a Molten Alliance battlesuit. Naming her Sparki was icing.

Or they can stomp all over the Nightmare Court to further bash home the point that Scarlet is the scary of all scaries. The Nightmare Court are formidable threats. Living Story trend dictates that Scarlet outwits them and outevils them to make her look “even better”.

Well, now we have Turma. I vaguely recall her being on Southsun. Can’t say more until I see her in action.

Scarlet and the Nightmare Court made a deal. Sigh. I would’ve preferred a three-way fight between us, Scarlet, and them, but let’s wait and see. As Twilight Arbor explorable mode shows, they’ll even betray each other if they think they can get away with it.

It seems that Scarlet might be beginning her plan to pit the forces of Dream and Nightmare against each other to weaken them both. Still, part of me suspects that by this point, those were just excuses and she just sides with the Court since they’re all about being crazy and killing people too.

Looking back at her short story starting with her interaction with that mender, I get the feeling she was already semi-Nightmare to begin with, and that hallucination and/or dream she had finally pushed her all the way and she just doesn’t notice or care to admit it. But, we’ll see. Hopefully this’ll at least make sense.

So, again they’ve decided to completely ignore players’ response with how LS is presented and continue with out-of-game RANDOM BLOG POSTS that reach maybe 0.1% GW2 population… -_-’
Nice read, but put the lore in the game already, for kitty sake!

And again, what’s Aetherblades motivation? They’re supposed to be tough and piratey, right. So why the pathetic cartoonish fear of Scarlet?

Also lol @Truma = Kiel 2.0.
As a female player, I have a request: can we pleeeeeease get some decent male characters (that aren’t as useless as Logan, comic relief like Faren or have a haircut like Braham), ktnxbai.
