- If Rata Sum lost a quarter of the ego and adopted Lyhr's ethical practices...the things they'd do. But now I'm rambling. Frode can fill you in on how the front lines are looking.
- He's been so focused on keeping the Kryptis out that he often neglected those inside.
- Deal with any threats encountered during your investigation.
- Skyscale Trainer Dyanne
- There's something about being in this place that makes me uneasy.
- Play with all shrine guardian infants in Skywatch Archipelago at least once.
- I'm not sure what we're going to find inside. Dagda almost succumbed to her possession. Mabon fell to his, a loss that continues to loom over the ward. The Kryptis are growing more powerful each moment, and our time to deal with their threat is running out. If we can't rescue Isgarren soon, he may suffer a fate worse than our dear Mabon. This would be catastrophic not just for the Astral Ward or Wizard's Court, but for Tyria as a whole. Without Isgarren, who knows what'll slither forth from the Mists next. And worse yet, what sort of a threat would a corrupted Isgarren be? We regrouped on one of the bastion's floating rings. Dagda and Zojja stood with Zizel, who was listening for movement. Kryptis were waiting to attack, so we marched forward to get the upper hand. As we entered the spire, Peitha took on a defensive tone. "The veil is parting," she told me. Zojja overheard us despite our efforts to be covert. She asked if I was okay, assuming I was speaking to myself. I managed to conceal Peitha's existence for just a bit longer. With tensions as strained as they are, I can't risk being compromised for fear of being removed from the field—or worse. But I don't know how much longer I can keep up this deception. Zojja was on the verge of launching into a lecture when she was interrupted by a Kryptis ambush. This fight likely won't cool until something has concluded. I just don't know if that something is going to be in our favor. After fighting wave after wave of Kryptis, Peitha advised me to think of a particularly fond memory—something to hold on to in the moments ahead. I thought of my home. My friends. Aurene... But Zojja, whose attention was already focused on me moments before, snapped. Is "one of them" in there? And before I could deflect, Peitha interjected. Zojja's skin crawled, but before anyone else could process that revelation, someone more important hovered just ahead: Isgarren. ***
- We're quite far north, actually.
- /bless—Unlock by using the "/bless" Emote Tome from the Wizard's Vault.
- While the ward watches the threats from outside, perhaps they worried about a new threat from within. The knowledge gained here could prevent us from ever making these mistakes.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Played with %num1%/%num2% Shrine Guardian Infants
- If we make it out of this without falling straight into the ocean, yes. We do.
- Dagda's Diary
- 01—Wizard's Ascent: Attracted to the smell of Kryptis baits in Wizard's Ascent.
- Retrieve Lyhr's Relic by defeating the Avatars of Rage and Regret in the Bastion of Balance.
- Zojja, You're still adjusting to your new place in this strange, new world, but I thought you could use a friend. I know that Maguuma stirs too many memories, so I went and retrieved him for you. What was it called...Mr. Glitters? Mr. Sparkles? Your friend, Mabon
- Asthenes has tethered its life force to Mabon, linking the fates of both together.
- Normally I'm a field tactician, but the situation here calls for someone to organize the protection of this village. So, I guess today I'm a refugee coordinator.
- Fine. Minimal damage—most of our artifacts are already accounted for. The few ward that were trapped inside seemed to be recovering well.
- I brought my concerns to Chief Engineer Min-Ji today. I just couldn't bear the weight of it anymore—the risk of what we're undertaking. She listened patiently, saying nothing, and then listed off all the standard arguments in favor that we've all heard a thousand times. This made me angry, like my words were just bouncing off her. Like nothing could actually get through. But I saw something in her face that I've never seen before, a look of... I don't know for sure, but I think it was fear. Fear of the unknown that we're charging into; fear of the fact that it's too late to stop it. And then she said something right before I left: "The future will decide if we were right." But there was no comfort in it. Just resignation, like she already knows what they will say. As though she's offering her defense, all while lowering her head for the axe.
- Frightful Gaze • Conjures Aspects
- Storm Lord's Throne
- It took two days, but we figured out how to bypass the magical seal on the door without needing the key. Our people built this, after all. Riley and Hewn haven't returned from the Granite Citadel yet, but I don't see the harm in the rest of us poking around the entry hall while we wait. Jovers said he heard scratching further in, chittering. Hall has a pest problem, sounds like. Nothing the three of us can't handle.

- Fair enough!
- That and...an inkling. It's probably not founded, but the air feels heavier. Thicker. It's harder to breathe. But that could be fear, surely...
- Maybe so.
- Turrets Remaining
- Vulnerable while broken.
- You found something? Where? Let me take a look.
