History repeating itself? Re: Dwarves
The Dwarves were one of the races that survived the previous rise of the Elder Dragons thanks to Glint, so… no. If they were minions they would’ve been reclaimed the last time the Dragons rose, and you would think Glint would realise one of the races she protected isn’t an real race.
Unlike the sylvari, who were always of the same material as their dragon’s creations, dwarves were flesh and blood. When they became one with the Great Dwarf, while they turned to stone this was cold hard stone – different from the volcanic rock of Primordus’ destroyers.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
Yeah, there was some older theories (pre-Sylvari Mordrem reveal) that the Sylvari because of their dragon corruption immunity were conceptually (or even more than simply conceptually) similar to the Dwarves (both were a sort of counter force to the EDs). But yeah that was before we knew Sylvari were dragon minions.
