Guild Wars 2

Just curious, as it just occurred to me that Kormir is not present in Orr/Arah ( probably due to her being the newest God ), and the fact that their was a mural for abaddon, i assume that Kormir was not a deity a relevance to the Orrians. I was wondering if anyone was able to give me the backstory regarding this? Was mostly curious because in Arah P4 when you are facing various powers of the 6 gods, you only really face against 5, with the exclusion of kormir/abaddon.

Orr was established roughly around 205 BE. The Six Gods left in Year 0 (or 0 AE), after Abaddon granted magic in 1 BE. Orr sank in the Cataclysm in 1071 AE. Kormir ascended to godhood in 1075 AE – four years after the Cataclysm.

Kormir wasn’t a god when Orr existed as a nation.

Abaddon isn’t included in the seer path of Arah explorable because when he was cast down the other gods removed (almost all) knowledge of Abaddon. Only small cults existed since, with highly limited knowledge (Vizier Khilbron was one of the rare followers of Abaddon since the gods’ fall though, and supposedly due to a demon, Razakiel, converting the vizier to the faith). Though some statues remained, and his temple was sunken beneath the waves (whereas the Temple of the Six Gods, defaced by Margonites, was pulled into the Realm of Torment). The seer path of Arah explorable has you fighting the last High Priest(ess) of the gods in Orr, so neither Abaddon nor Kormir had a priest(ess), let alone a High Priest(ess).

Kormir didn’t ascend to godhood until like 1200 (more like 1180) years after the gods left tyria, and I think about 30 or something years before orr sunk. So basically, she wasn’t a deity that they worshipped. As for Abaddon, he was ousted from the pantheon, so that’s why he’s not there (haven’t done this path, just based on what you’re saying)
