I’m not so familiar with the first Guild Wars, but I do remember the Tengu (and possibly the Grawl, poor memory here) made their influence in one of the released expansions. Guild Wars 2 however, introduced some new races such as the Quaggan and the Hylek. How do you think they emerged and dealt with the presence of other races around them with different values? And more importantly, what about their impact with the playable five?

The hylek appeared in Nightfall, though only on the continent of Elona (which is connected to Tyria by the Crystal Desert). Who knows how they got here.

The quaggan, if you learn about them in-game, used to dwell in deeper areas. Not open ocean/bottom of the sea type thing, but near the edge of the continental shelf (or that’s the impression I’ve gotten). When the Deep Sea Dragon awoke and drove the krait inland, the krait, being evil slaver types, displaced the quaggan and forced them inland, as well.

Yes, they inhibited some of the jungle region where the Asura lived in GW1 (and now in GW2)
