I’m sure this is probably common knowledge, but I can’t find the answer anywhere. In The Town of Nolan, what are the old rusty gears from? Thanks for anyone who answers.

Ascalon Academy isn’t even close to to that area.

The gears are probably replaced parts from the Black Citadel though.

Nitpicking, but I do want to point out that the Ascalon and Nolani Academies weren’t the same thing.

Anyway, I don’t think there’s any explicit statement, but I get the sense they’re leftovers from the building of the Black Citadel.

My bad. I wasn’t aware that there were two Academies. I’ll be more careful in the future. As for the gears. That saddens me in all honesty. I was hoping for something more grand. You’d think the Charr would have taken and melted them down to make more weapons or something not leave them to rust. :/

p.s. I’d like to point out that the courtyard the gears sit in looks like it should be the remains of the Historical Monument of Nolani. It’s in the correct place at least. (Link)

Given proximity to the Black Citadel, ‘old parts’ before they got that Great Imperator’s Smelter going is likely.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
