Guild Wars 2

After the confrontation with Aerin, the Master of Peace addresses the party then heads off to his unfinished business. What is he carrying in that backpack of his? Anyone else noticed a light source emitting from it?

Guess we’ll see.

Looks egg-shaped.

What an incredibly long incubation period.

I rejoined Marjory, Kasmeer, Braham, Rox, and Taimi to search for the Master of Peace before the saboteur, Aerin, could catch him. We found Aerin and pursued him deep into the canyon. Aerin’s behavior was manic, almost like Scarlet’s during her final days. He fought fiercely, but ultimately lost. The Master of Peace said that Aerin wanted great power but was refused. He didn’t explain what that meant, nor did he say where he was headed next. His backpack was loaded with something—probably supplies. He may be embarking on a long journey.

I searched Aerin’s corpse. He was carrying a note with frantic scrawlings that said a “leader will die” and that “the rest will fall in line.” Did he mean the Master of Peace or someone else? I also found some animal hairs on Aerin’s corpse that probably came from livestock back in Prosperity. We should return there and continue our investigation.

“Probably supplies”. Mhmm…. sure.

Well it’s glowing… I remember an Asura at he Bazaar noting that one of the Zypherite ‘ships’ was glowing (can’t remember her name).

kitten, if you’re walking through a desert canyon on foot, I’d bet you’re kitten you’d be bringing a backpack full of stuff too.

If it was only supplies though, which wouldn’t have any plot relevance, they wouldn’t have brought it up for notice for the players.

Unless of course, it’s suppose to be a red herring.

Looks like an egg. My guess is that it is Glint’s egg and that it has been waiting for the right time to hatch.

There is a lot of dragon literature where dragons can choose when to hatch, staying in their eggs for 100’s if not 1000’s of years.
