Sorry if you have commented this before, but now you can talk with Evon and you can make fun of him for his election lost or give him your support.

I, as a faithfull Kiel’s supporter, made fun of him, and at the end he told me something interesting: That the city is in danger, and Kiel is playng in fractals and the lion guard is in Caledon Forest…
He believes that Scarlet is going to attack Lion’s Arc…
Could it be a hint of what is coming in january? That will be the final of the LS 1st season?
Scarlet attacking LA?

We’ll see…

You can talk to Kiel as well, and you have the same options (You can either tell her you’re glad she won and you supported her, tell her you didn’t support her, or tell her you voted for both of them). She’s in front of the Trading Post building. She doesn’t really say anything particularly interesting though, even if you tell her you didn’t vote for her she just says she’s going to continue to work for you even though you didn’t.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it is a hint towards something. I’ve long suspected that Evon is “Mister E” from the message sent to players during Dragon Bash. If anyone would know about the activities of pirates (like the Aetherblades) it’d be the leader of a merchant guild.

Kiel still seems to be determined that the Consortium is the bigger threat at the moment with their morally ambiguous attitude. If she turns into an Ellen Ripley caricature, something tells me it won’t be pretty. Also I take it Magnus told her he would be dealing with Scarlet personally, so she can do her own thing.

Scarlet already attacked LA – that’s how we ended up having to vote for a new Council member in the first place.

It wouldn’t surprise me if she did it again, but they’ve got plenty of defences. As well as the Lion Guard (who aren’t all out in the forest) there’s the 3 Orders who might not be explicitly defending LA but they all have an interest in keeping it safe, the armies of the various playable races who also have an interest in having a ‘neutral’ city and of course all the players. If she attacks we’ll all be there to stop her.

Nope. Evon would have just funded the research, and our Fractal would be mile above the Thaumanova one we have now. He’s too busy providing players awesome items, and defending Lion’s Arch from evil as his alter-ego Mister E.

Silly Evon. If you truly care that much about Lion’s Arch, bring your concerns to Ellen and work WITH her. The two of you together could do so much more to safeguard your city than nursing your grudges separately.

P.S. I STILL haven’t gotten my Black Lion tickets in your chests, Evon. You’re still not getting my vote.

Not surprising. That’s all Kiel does is whine and complain and give us content without proper waypoints <cough- saw that coming-cough>
Evon is the hero Tyria needs. When we take on the next elder dragon i hope he’s leading the charge. I would follow him anywhere

Exactly, if Evon won he’d be the one “busy in the fractals”. He only cares about the BLTC and milking you for items you don’t need.

I’m also waiting for Smooth Penguin’s proof that Kiel is behind the taxes as he claimed in this thread. We’re nearing a week but I’m still waiting.

What people are forgetting is that it’s actually Magnus that’s pulling Ellen’s strings. She wouldn’t have gotten on the council if it weren’t for his pressuring Kiel to run, not to mention he was very insistent on making her so. He’s a pirate just like the rest (even Kiel herself, don’t forget that. She may be a Lionguard, but that doesn’t change what they are.) Surely there’s something in it for him.

Evon might be a businessman, but at least that’s the only thing we have to worry about with him. He wouldn’t go and try to hurt his main source of profit and income.

Therefore it is in our interest to see that he continues getting profit from it. He is also predictable in this. Kiel on the other hand not only is a loose cannon, but she’s acting in the best interest of Magnus. And i have no idea what are Magnus’ goals.

Well technically he did as he didn’t charge space for the refugees that swarmed to LA, crowding the city and not offering anything in terms of trade. I figure him not raising quite a fuss in that regard was quite nice! Especially given the waterfall view they were given and a few bonfires!

That and Evon’s one of the reasons LA is such a notable place to visit due to his company and trade.

No, that’s not what happened. Basically Evon disagreed with his Legionnaire on how they were going to set up their operation in LA. His Legionnaire wanted to extort money from the citizens (aka do what the pirates do); Evon wanted to set up a legitimate trading operation. Evon challenged his Legionnaire and killed her (she attacked him first), and has owned the Black Lion Trading Company ever since.

This also means that the BLTC is actually a front for a spying operation in LA. (Although I’ll grant this was years ago and Evon may have gone rogue since then. We certainly don’t see his original warband around anymore.) Humans with Separatist loyalties may want to reconsider their patronage of the BLTC as a result.

There ya go. The key things to pay attention to are the lines about Evon being a loyal Ash Legion operative and never questioning orders. That means that what the Gnash warband was doing in LA was fully sanctioned by the Ash Legion. Since the Ash Legion specialises in espionage and information gathering, the most obvious conclusion is that they are here to spy on the people and leaders of Lion’s Arch.

Heck, for all I know, Evon is secretly funnelling part of his profits back to the Ash Legion!
