MANY SPOILERS ABOUT THE PLOT AND ENDING OF THE HEART OF THORNS PERSONAL STORYLINE.

So I just finished the HoT personal story today. Overall I’m pretty satisfied. The final encounter was (mechanistically at least) much more satisfying than the Zhaitan.
I was kind of thrown off by the lack of denouement though. The story feels like it’s missing a last instance to tie up loose ends.

We kill Mordremoth’s mind, deal with Trahaerne, get our big loot chest and then…we’re done? Where’s the last instance where we get back together with the team and decompress over our giant struggle? Why didn’t we meet back up with Kasmeer to find out how Zojja/Logan turned out? Did everything go alright for Taimi all alone in Rata Novum? Is the pale tree okay? Why didn’t we have an audience where the triumphant heroes limp back into the Oomphalos chamber to be graciously received by a now-recovered Pale Tree?

Dunno, I suppose a lot of this will be covered when Anet takes up the Living Story again in a few (or maybe more like 6?) months. It just seemed like the story ended rather abruptly.
