• Sure. I'm betting it's an artifact, probably a sylvari-related one.
• The probes are just bombs she put out to scare us.
• The probes are magical and spread out. She's closing in on a magical location.
• Veteran Nightmare Court Loot Box[pl:"Boxes"]
• Inquest Loot Box[pl:"Boxes"]
• That's bad news. Mai's ruthless, and now she's free to get back to doing Scarlet's dirty work again.
• Mai used Scarlet for her own political ambitions.
• Scarlet wanted a pawn on the Captain's Council.
• Theo Ashford was involved with Scarlet, and she betrayed him.
• Detectiving isn't easy, but I learned a lot when we investigated Mai Trin and Scarlet's involvement in the assassination of Councillor Theo Ashford at Dragon Bash.
• I was glad to see her thrown in jail, but Mai Trin's Aetherblade friends just freed her from Lionguard custody.
• I still can't believe Mai Trin thought she could get a seat on the Captain's Council. I'm glad we met you that day. She had to be stopped.
• Mai Trin's Aetherblade friends just freed her from Lionguard custody.
• Nightmare Court Loot Box[pl:"Boxes"]
• Exactly. Sonic weaponry combined with flame magic. They repurposed dredge mining suits for use as charr battle armor.
• I think she was developing a sonic magical device other than weapons.
• She obviously wanted a battlesuit to keep her safe. All the pieces fit.
• The dredge were fodder, nothing more. She was after Flame Legion magic.
• We missed the initial Molten Alliance uprising, but I heard you were there. Maybe you can explain to me what brought the dredge and Flame Legion together?
• I believe it was for magitech development.
• I wish I'd seen the Molten Alliance facility in the Shiverpeaks. Dredge and Flame Legion are terrifying by themselves. As allies, they're brutal. Scarlet chose well when she put them together.
• She knew they'd give her what she wanted.
• I still have nightmares about that tower. I doubt I'm the only one.
• At least Jory was able to find the antitoxin. Can we test it on this sample?
• Scarlet would have spread her toxins all over Tyria if we'd let her. It's a good thing we found the antidote. She allied with krait and Nightmare Courtiers to do so. Why would she do such a thing?
• It was a cover to grow that fake krait prophet. Why else?
• The courtiers grew the plant, and the krait made it toxic. The combination was a poison so powerful...
• She wanted to learn Nightmare Court secrets, I'd say.
• I wake from nightmares—screaming, confused, and scared. It's getting wOrse. I've decided to talk to a mender. I've probably just been working too hard. Dated Season of the Colossus, 1321.
• Read on.
• Close the journal.
• Every night, the same terrors. It never changes. The mender was unable to help Me, and I feel like I'm losing control of myself. Dated Season of the Zephyr, 1322.
• When the nightmare starts, an entity calls to me. I run—run into a seA of darkness. But no matter how hard I try to escape, it keeps calling me. Dated Season of the Phoenix, 1322.
• I'm trying not to sleep—too scareD to even close my eyes... So scared. Whispers come from the forest all night long, calling me, taunting me, possessing me. Dated Season of the Scion, 1322.
• Tonight I saw it. I stared into the abyss, anD it stared back at me. So much power. I don't know what's real and what isn't anymore. Dated Season of the Colossus, 1322.
• Control of my world—of myself—is slipping through my hands. And yet, I'm no longer scared. Dated Season of the Zephyr, 1323.
• It communicated with me through images of death, destruction, and destiny. I must know more. I must confront it and put an end to this madness. Dated Season of the Scion, 1323.
• Kasmeer, we've never seen this side of Scarlet.
• She's made our lives miserable for months now. Still, if this journal is true, then I almost feel a little sorry her. What do you suppose it all means?
• It's a ploy. She left this journal where we'd find it to get us to sympathize with her.
• Voices. Visions. Violence. It's clear she's just plain crazy.
• Something is driving her—something she was afraid of but has since embraced.
• She believes Scarlet blew the place up to sow terror. One sleuth to another, that's too easy. If we theorize that all Scarlet's moves have been connected, she must have been after something.
• I agree. But why? What else has Scarlet said?
• Mostly crazed prattle— Hmm. Now that's interesting. Kiel's report says Scarlet called the energy flowing into the reactor "dragon" energy. She also talked about the ley lines that crisscross Tyria.
• It all tracks back to the ley lines. We know she's been actively researching them.
• I'm inclined to agree with Kiel. Scarlet's crazy. She doesn't need a reason to blow people up.
• I'm suspicious of the Inquest connection. I bet they're behind all this.
• You saw it, right? The Thaumanova reactor? What a terrible disaster. Ellen Kiel's investigation uncovered Scarlet's involvement—as a special consultant to the Inquest.
• What are Kiel's conclusions?
