Brilliantly made, beautiful Tyria!
One thing has come to my notice: the disproportionately small, almost cut-off-toed feet of the Sylvari, females in particular.
Males’ feet are also small for their figures, but not as clearly as those of their female counterparts.
Then a strange thought came upon me:
Whoever made these so small, was either trying to break human proportion to give a sense of being ‘fey’ or ‘fae’, therefore disconnecting Sylvari from being human or humanoid,
OR
..has an obsession with The Three-Inch Golden Lotus.
