I’m sorry if this is common knowledge to people or it was said but simply can’t find anything about it so here goes.
In the trailer we see Canach fighting off some humans(?), defending himself, saying that he is not the enemy. So clearly the world of Tyria knows that Mordremoth is controlling some sylvari now. My question is how?
The Pact went to attack Mordremoth, they all, well, wiped. No one came back to tell what happened there. Sure people will realize the Pact failed since there will be no word, no one returning and so on, maybe even investigate and find the ruins of the ships.
So how exactly will the people of Tyria figure out that sylvari turned on the Pact and was eventually their doom? Only us the players know of this cause we saw the cinematic, no one else did. Not to mention the fact that sylvari are minions of Mordremoth is such a black deep secret that only Caithe, Scarlet, Wynne and Pale Tree knew about it. Others can’t make that connection.
Even if the sylvari that are under his command reached out and started doing no good wouldn’t it be common sense for Tyrians to think that they are just Nightmare Court up to no good? Cause we do see Faolain being… well Faolain.
Only good solution (and a funny one) that would spread this information like wildfire would be social media, I can already picture the Pact falling of the ships, and just before they do they take a selfie and post on Facebook #traitorsylvari #yolo #nomakeup #eirishot
