I really miss the Bazaar of the Four Winds. What is currently happening with the Zephyrites?

Will they ever recover?

They are frozen in time, trying to recover in Dry Top. Perhaps they’ll even try to settle in Prosperity, after some of those vines are trimmed back. However, their role in the story seems to have played out, now that the egg has been taken to Tarir and hatched.

There has been plot of them post-Dry Top, but this was mostly the Aspect Masters trying to find a place for them to recooperate… then half of them got killed and we’ve not heard of them since.

Technically speaking, we only saw 4 ships crash. There were over a dozen in Labyrinthine Cliffs. So while their main ship (Zephyr Sanctum) crashed, there would be more out there still floating – no doubt they landed somewhere nearby to help the crash victims and are probably the ships the three Aspect Masters were on.

They certainly can recover. But their primary role has been fulfilled so don’t expect them to pop up in the story again except as flavor. But that role is usually given to the Inquest.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

I hope they recover as well, mainly so that we can get the Bazaar back

Well, too bad. I would really love to visit the Bazaar and meet Zephyrites when they are strong and proud, not destroyed and struggling on desert to survive.

And who says they can’t be strong and proud again? Its been years since they crashed. Obviously not enough time to be thriving, but plenty to not be struggling to survive on the dessert. Especially considering they can use the aspects

I could see them coming back, actually.

Konig says ‘their primary role has been fulfilled’, but I don’t think it’s as straightforward as that. The egg was their primary concern at the time, but I think Glint’s legacy is more than just Aurene (although Aurene is obviously a very important part of it) – the Zephyrites probably had something to do after the egg was delivered, and once they recover they’ll start work on that. Which means, in turn, that once the story puts the focus back on Glint’s legacy, we’ll probably see them again.

When that will be, however, is anyone’s guess. I’m not holding my breath.

To those who think Scarlet hate means she’s succeeded as a villain:
People don’t hate Scarlet like Game of Thrones fans hate Joffrey.
They hate her the way Star Wars fans hate Jar Jar Binks.

I’d love for the Bazaar to recover and become a yearly Holiday. I’m honestly a little sick of everything being pure chaos and world ending threats. Hey you killed a Dragon, here’s another! ((Spoilers inc)) Hey you killed that Dragon? HERES TWO MOAR LOL. Every map we get has to be war torn and ugly.

The Bazaar was so lovely, it’d be nice to be able to relax again.

I have fond memories of the Bazaar of the Four Winds. It’s hard to believe they were all prior to Dry Top. I really hope someday they rebuild and we get a close recreation of that zone back.

Technically speaking, the Bazaar was 100% separated from the Zephyrites. They were visitors to the Bazaar.

The lore of the Bazaar of the Four Winds is that it’s an “open black market” of sorts that changes places and pops up spontaneously. It can literally show up in any map or part of Tyria on a whim.

The Zephyrites were just visiting it while it was situated at Labyrinthine Cliffs.

We can by all lore reasoning go back to Labyrinthine Cliffs without the Zephyrites – or the Bazaar. They could by all reason make Labyrinthine Cliffs an expanded full-time map even if they so wanted.
