Well, I was thinking. here is how I would try to naturally mesh GW1 lore with GW2 events in HoT.

Have a mission/event heart/that stuff around the Maguuma bloodstone, only it turns out in the years between GW1 and gW2, the surviving white mantle have turned their camps at it into a fortress (and because it’s deep in the jungle, nobody bothers to go out that far and they don’t really go into Kryta in obvious force).

Now, as part of it, you have priory/people talking about the White mantle, and you can have them mention how the hero found them sacrificing people on the bloodstone, and then later helped wipe out their leadership. Like the one camp in Orr where an Asura priory member has lots of scrolls about Orr/the gods, same thing. A priory member has several scrolls and books about the bloodstone, white mantle, and that period.

I feel like it’d be a more natural way to include and reference those events then the scepter of Orr personally

There’s a reference Rat-Tastrophe about fighting the great destroyer in some of the dialog.

My biggest problem is Ogden Stonehealer.
He would remember at least some of the people who fought the Great Destroyer with him.

And what point would he mention them? Or would modern GW2 characters ask about them?

He probably does remember them. The question is, does he have a reason to bring them up? I remember some people from high school, but never talk about them because there is no reason to.

edit: This falls into “Having the mentions be natural and not forced.” It’d seem really, REALLY odd for Odgen to suddenly start talking about the GW1 hero. Especially since he only encountered them during the EOTN events basically.
