I’ll start by my vision of how GW2 ends: the final elder dragon is on the moon. He is silver and rainbowy, but a corruption of those colors so not bright and beautiful. He is psychic with powerful mind control. He is so powerful that the pale tree and entire sylvari race need to make a heroic sacrifice similar to the dwarves to defeat him. He’d be defeated in a PvP/Raid hybrid gameplay wise with lots of platforming. He is defeated and peace reigns for 1,000 years. Destiny’s Edge is nowhere to be found, but they were send in a time portal. The final elder dragon’s spell was meant to be fatal, but a new spell from Zojja saved their lives and sent them forward in time. Rytlock is known as the greatest Ascalonian king who ever lived, but there are rumors that he didn’t quite die, so for the past 1,000 years you have Rytlock imitators claiming to be the real Rytlock. When the real Rytlock does find his descendant the king (reasonably so) assumes he’s yet another imitator, but the player character helps him with a quest proving in fact he’s the real Rytlock. Taimi also gets sent forward in time as she played the biggest role in defeating the final elder dragon, but she goes forward in time too in order to justify her being in an expansion 1,000 years in the future without making a new character who’d be criticized as a Taimi knockoff. Eir’s place in Destiny’s Edge was taken over by Braham. Only Caithe remains of the Sylvari, and the Crysquest, who are like the Inquest but 1,000 years more advanced (logically) and stole all the Priory’s knowledge kidnapped Caithe. Since she’s the last surviving Sylvari and Ogden the last surviving dwarf they perform inhumane experiments on them, but are rescued by the player character, Taimi, and Rytlock.

Logan is now an Asura because he was changed with Asuran magitech in order to have children with Zojja. How their relationship started was as follows:

Zojja: “You do realize the Queen is with another man and you’ll just have to accept that right?”

Logan: “I won’t! I can’t! I have given up so much for her!”

Zojja: “What do you even see in her anyway? She wasn’t there risking her life with you, she didn’t go through what WE went through together. Besides, am I not smart and beautiful?”

Logan (smirks in a way suggesting he’s giggling inside): Well, you are cute and beautiful.

Zojja: “Have you ever thought about…well…us?”

Logan: “Enough of the uncomfortable questions. Even if I had, the risk of offending you would be too great. Afraid you would no longer see me a brother in arms, but a weirdo who…wants to date another species”

Zojja (places hand on Logan’s hand): It’s okay. You don’t have to hide anything from me. (They make out)

Logan: Looks like we have a chance to bust out of here, save Rytlock, and show these inquest monsters not to mess with Destiny’s Edge! An understanding of revenant magic would be far too dangerous in their hands!

(A couple arcs later, after Zojja and Logan’s marriage)

Zojja: Humans and Asura cannot bear children, but I have found a way to solve that problem! With the latest advancements in magitech you can become an Asura!

Logan: For you my love, anything.

So what does everyone think? If your opinion is negative that’s okay I’m open to constructive criticism and admit I’m not a lore expert so contradictions with it are inevitable.

+1 because I literally started laughing hysterically out loud at the Zojja and Logan dialogue. Couldn’t contain myself, immediately linked to all friends.

As far as the idea…it’s very ridiculous, and in some ways, no more ridiculous and inane than some of the story elements Anet has introduced to their own game. I certainly wouldn’t be into at all (which doesn’t speak for others), and myself coming from a fantasy fiction writing background, it’s almost hilariously appalling to read xD

Can’t tell if you’re serious or joking though, but either way, thank you for the laugh my friend!

There are all kinds of strengths, but if you have strength of soul the others will follow.

So…we’re running with the idea from the Sylvari thread are we?

Still…Logan and Zojja…

The thought is….mildly nauseating.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

And Queen Jenna was corrupted afterward and had to be defeated. Zojja delivers the final blow, but with some malice and jealousy. She’d be possessed by a champion of the final elder dragon and therefore have to go. I also really like the idea of mixing raiding and WvW for the absolute last boss where the player character earns rewards for his GW3 counterpart.

Guild Wars 3 LS 1: The Real Rytlock or The Return of Rytlock has a nice ring to it ^_^ There’d even be a Rytlock impersonator quest where the player character gets second next to the real thing (but even this doesn’t convince Rytlock’s descendant thus the need for a McGuffin to prove his authenticity) where Rytlock jokes with him, “Don’t worry I’m not here to take your place as king great grandson many times over but a warning!” where the king responds, “Get in line with all the other ‘Rytlocks’”. Rytlock’s legacy is so great that even 1,000 years into the future they still speak of his legacy both as a warrior who cleansed Ascalon of its curse (successfully on the second attempt) and as a king who united all the races and lead a campaign kill all the seperatists and corrupted. Since evidence of his death was never found (since he never actually died but got caught in a time wormhole) countless impersonators throughout the centuries appeared and still appear.

Better than Logan and Rytlock, like from the other thread.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

I find that highly amusing honestly. But, less nauseating, interestingly. At least in that pairing, they aren’t “magically” changing logan into a charr or rytlock into a human. Hmm Rytlock as a human…tall, dark, and yum.. Ok back on topic… yeah…less adverse to that humor.

Rtylock as human. Tall. Dark. (So far yum). But with teeth that makes a dentist see $$$$$

ROFL!

Ok, we’re assuming that his teeth would be “normal” for a human if he got morphed, given that his teeth (currently) are “normal” for a charr.

But thank you for the snaggle-toothed, can’t quite close his mouth right Human Rytlock mental image. I think I may die laughing now.
