Guild Wars 2

Lets begin…
First, assume that the orbs in the vision of the eternal alchemy we see are dragons.
Second, lets assume that the set of 6 starts on two separate sides (3 each) for a reason, before glowing and rotating around as a 3rd dimensional object.

Given that the orbs are representative of the dragons, and that they have been separated for a purpose, what could that purpose be? I am inclined to believe that they are separated initially based on how their corruption spreads.

On the left: Primordius, Mordremoth, Bubbles(Steve).
On the right: Krak, Zhaitan, Jormag.

We know that Krak turns living things into branded, Jormag into Icebrood, and Zhaitan into the Undead. These dragons corrupt things personally and turn other living things into their minions.

We also know that Primordius seems to hatch his minions out of lava in imitation of other living things, rather than corrupting them directly. Mordremoth prefers to strangle his victims than convert them (unless they are plants), and given that the Pale Tree grew, Mordremoth’s minions seem to have to grow from some sort of mother plant.

This then leaves Bubbles, set on the side of indirect dragon corruption. This leads me to believe that his minions, if we ever met them, will also be some sort of twisted imitation of the game’s “reality” rather than directly corrupted enemies. This also seems to suggest that Bubbles would need to grow, or hatch his/her minions from some sort of water supply.

Do you agree?

Could be, but it’s all speculation at this point. It’s also worth noting that Jormag can corrupt elementals, too.

1) The orbs are the dragons, or so our PC thinks.
2) It’d be Primordus, Zhaitan, DSD on left; Kralk, Mordy, Jormag on right. The “black” orb (turns lime after glowing) is Mordremoth; the dark green one is Zhaitan. At least, according to the Durmand Priory (go to their basement – Hidden Arcana or Arcana Obscura instances – and look at the cieling in the main room; it shows The All (what Scarlet/the PC mistook as the Eternal Alchemy – or what is part of the Eternal Alchemy, hard to tell which it is) and a letter at each orb, in Hidden Arcana there’s an NPC that explains that each letter represents an Elder Dragon (this is where we got S for the DSD’s first letter in its name).

This theory came about when the vision was first seen and folks thought that lime=Zhaitan because it appears black when dim. Hidden Arcana basically proved it wrong.

Furthermore, we know Primordus can corrupt living beings just as we see Kralkatorrik corrupt the land and creating minions from stone and we know how Zhaitan corrupted Orr itself.

Glad you’re still with us Konig even if you didn’t like the “Sylvari were meant to be Dragon Minions” plot “twist”

I didn’t know about the image on the roof. Have to check that out one day.
