1. Aerin becoming “insane” was one more a case of Mordremoth acting in head of Silvarys? if no, what drove his actions? It seems to me that the explanation of sylvari could be handled by Mordremoth only appeared in HoT expansion.

2. Why the Mystery Cave is sealed by a Forgotten stuff?
I read several times the summaries, and even again the history brief in-game, and it was not clear why the cave of last Caithe memory is sealed by an “old magic”.

3. Theres more plot-holes, unsolved mysteries on LS2?

1. It was heavily implied in later chapters that Aerin had shown the same symptoms as Scarlet had, and she was confirmed to have been overtaken by Mordremoth’s influence. Aerin was the indication that she wasn’t an isolated case, and it was him who made the Zephyrite ships crash.

2. We still don’t really know why the Forgotten were out in the Maguuma jungle. Some of it was probably to lead into the Exalted, who also had strong ties to the Forgotten, and it was as good a way as any to remind old players and explain to new ones who they are. Aside from Wynne hiding in the cave, and perhaps a hidden passage, there doesn’t seem to be any more significance to it, for now.

3. Are there? If so, point them out, and we can discuss them.

1. Yes, it was, though it was largely left in the air (never explicitly mentioned, just heavily implied) until HoT promotions.

2. Because the golden structures within the cave were Forgotten/Exalted outposts. They had more structures than just Tarir/Auric Basin – we see some in Dragon’s Stand too. But it was largely just a plot device to give us a reason why not to see that final vision (and in turn the grand reveal) until the eighth release (honestly, everything about Caithe taking the egg and chasing her feels like it was done for the primary purpose of keeping the Commander from the Pact Fleet, creating that ‘dramatic reveal’ for an ending, and stalling for time). Further, the golden structures in the cave were made to be a teaser of Tarir and the Exalted’s role in HoT.

3. There’s plot holes everywhere Scarlet is concerned – as well as retcons. Going to have to be more specific if you want to talk about them.

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

Thank you friends, the answer made it clear things.

About point 2. Was a part that I was not remembering: the golden structures. Now remembering well, its make sense, the cave was supposed to be an outpost of the forgotten/exalted, and then they come back later after Wynne fate, and sealed it.

Sorry for being vague in point 3 to be more specific, it was just to see if this kind of “hole plot” was common or not. btw, thanks again I think all my doubts were resolved..

It was sealed when Wynne entered, actually. She had the key – never explained how she got it or why though – which allowed her, Caithe, and Faolain access (and later, Caithe again). We did not have a key so we did a little work around with divine fire.
