- Valenze
- This must be where Yeng kept his monsters. He took really good care of 'em—better than his employees, that's for sure.
- No sign of him, though. Would he abandon all these animals to starvation?
- No way. Like I said, Yeng liked animals better than he liked people. He was always looking for new creatures to train.
- It's Orrian! That monster was from Orr! It can't be—not here. Not in Lion's Arch!
- Calm down. Have you seen one of those before?
- It's really rare, some kind of special scout. I read about the only other sighting of one when I worked the file rooms.
- Tybalt, are you absolutely sure about this?
- Trust me! We need to warn the Lionguard. Meet me at their fortress on Claw Island, and let's hope we're not too late.
- Zhaitan only sends them when he's about to send in his whole army. Lion's Arch is in danger!
- Set a timed charge with a big blast that Launches nearby foes.
- I wish I could give you a proper ceremony before you go back in the field, but we have a critical issue at hand.
- Thank you, General. It's my honor to serve the Vigil.
- With all due respect, General, isn't that a job for the Lionguard?
- Ordinarily, yes, but some of the missing people are Lionguard. Worse, we've lost contact with one of our Vigil tacticians stationed there.
- That makes it our problem. Understood, ma'am. What areas should we survey, and what should we be looking for?
- General Almorra Soulkeeper
- What in the name of the Mists was that thing?
- I've only seen such a creature once before—at Port Stalwart, just before the Orrian dragon destroyed the town. Years ago.
- Dead sure. We don't have time to go back and report to Almorra, or even send for Vigil backup.
- Magister, is it true? Sieran—she's really dead?
- It's true, Gixx. I'm sorry. But at least she went out bravely. Because of her sacrifice, the survivors reached Lion's Arch.
- I'd always hoped Sieran would learn responsibility, but not like this. She was a turnip-brained, leaf-loving...hero. And she will be missed.
- These undead are commanded by a powerful wraith. He'll remain hidden while his minions carry out the slaughter.
- So, we must discover the unseen, hm? I believe the Priory has an artifact that will aid us: an idol of Balthazar, the human god of war, murder, etcetera etcetera.
- It can transform one individual. The more you kill, the more powerful you become—until your enemy can no longer hide from you. But, it is risky...
- I'll do it. Sieran was never afraid to take risks. She gave us a chance to protect the city, and I plan to do exactly that.
- You may not be a member of the Priory, Trahearne, but you know more about the Orrians than anyone in Tyria. What do you recommend?
- Well done, Magister! You channeled the idol's power without turning into a ravaging, blood-crazed psychopath!
- Ah... I...may not have mentioned that particular side effect... Well, never mind. Good job!
- The idol is incredibly strong. Can we use it against the vanguard at Claw Island?
- Sadly, no. The human god of mass murder is not a deity that likes to use the same tactic twice. The idol's no longer enchanted.
- Not long ago, an associate of mine, Tegwen, was trapped in Orr. Since her return, she's been training sylvari to fight the Orrians. We could use their help.
- Hmm. It's also possible that my researchers have finished their most recent project. They were modifying a sonic weapon we captured from the dredge.
- Those both sound like good ideas—manpower or firepower. Give me a moment to think before I decide.
- I don't have time to be regaled right now. So long.
- What makes you the "deadliest"?
- I'll never forget Tybalt, but now duty calls. The Lionguard is evacuating the populace, the Durmand Priory safeguards the harbor, and the Vigil musters at Fort Marriner.
- Very well. We need more information. Each Lightbringer will patrol a section of the city for Zhaitan's scouts.
- I'll take Canal Ward. Undead will be coming out of the sea. If they're sending scouts, I'll find them there.
- And pummeled some more, I get it. What happened next?
- Good. We need a complete sweep, Lightbringers. Watch for anything strange, but stay alert for danger.
- Halvora Snapdagger
- There were creatures in the city, but Trahearne and I destroyed them before they did much damage.
- I agree. Preceptor Doern, I know you have leverage on many talented individuals. I suggest you put it to use.
- Well done, Lightbringer. The other operatives are still finishing up, but I suspect they'll find the same.
- Preceptor, it's time to face reality. The Order of Whispers can't be expected to hold back Zhaitan alone. We need to exploit our connections.
- Benn Tenstrikes refuses to divulge my whereabouts to my father, so the Ministry has tossed him into prison for his trouble. He'd help us, if he still lives.
- I have an alternative, Preceptor. We are currently sheltering an asuran scientist named Gorr. His inventions would be an advantage.
- Both are sound plans. Lightbringer, I want you to recruit one of them. Your choice.
