- I am. She can perhaps help us find Caithe.
- It would appear so. I have never felt more directed than I do here. And resisting undead expansion is a cause worthy of any Wyld Hunt valiant.
- Let's hope so. I can tell you want to find her as quickly as possible.
- This letter is in near-pristine condition, despite its surroundings.
- Read the letter.
- Is something on your mind, Jory? You've been...quiet.
- I guess I just don't understand why this egg is so important. How is an egg going to help us take down Mordremoth? The Pact is about ready to leave...without us.
- "You have always been my dearest friend, and without you, I am hollow. I felt your pain and fear as you watched the undead claim your home. It was unbearable."
- I know killing Mordremoth means a lot to you.
- It...killed my sister.
- "But your betrayal has brought a far worse pain than I thought imaginable. Please, I beg of you, come home. The Nightmare Court can offer you no comfort or answers. They are as bad as the undead you fear and hate."
- I have to ask you to trust me. Mordremoth is one battle in a greater war.
- This book of sylvari poetry has been well loved. The pages are soft from the touch of fingertips over and over. A message has been scrawled on the inside cover.
- Read the message.
- And you're certain this egg will help us win the war. OK, boss. I'm with you.
- I need your support, Jory. Your friendship. Thank you.
- "To Behanthi, with whom I have read poetry under the broad trees on many an evening. May it forever give you something bright to hold onto, however dark the days get."
- If we do anything, we should encourage them to think for themselves, depend on themselves. Besides, Wynne can't be trusted. She keeps secrets from us.
- That is true. She does seem to be hiding something.
- If Wynne knows something of import, she will tell us. But let's not change the subject, please. We're discussing the secondborn.
- Are we officially calling them secondborn, then?
- That's a terrible name for them, Trahearne. And thus, we make official the chasm between them and us. We are all just sylvari.
- We did awaken first, though.
- I want to hear what the others have to say before we adjourn.
- This is a waste of time. These newly awakened don't need to be coddled. We didn't need anyone holding our hands or indoctrinating us with unexamined philosophies.
- But they're not us. Maybe Wynne is right. Maybe we should—
- I want to talk with the others before we adjourn.
- So much talking. Maybe we just all need to agree that we do the best for them that we can. Aiming for perfection leads only to certain failure.
- The leader of the Nightmare Court? It must have been fascinating to hear how they interacted back then. I'm jealous. But did you learn anything that will help us find Caithe?
- I saw their destination: Metrica.
- They were heading into Metrica. "Imps" had kidnapped secondborn.
- It was like watching young deer play. And they mentioned Metrica.
- You know Metrica well?
- To see them so young...it was incredible. They went to Metrica.
- Metrica Province? That area is populated with asura. Why are they going there?
- They were tracking some "imps" that had kidnapped a group of secondborn.
- Imps? All right. Rox is expecting me for a sword practice. I'd better let her know I won't be there. It won't take long. I'll meet you there.
- Good plan. Be careful.
- How is Rox with the greatsword? I've never seen her fight with one.
- What happened? What did you see?
- Who are the Inquest?
- I was Caithe, more than twenty years ago. Faolain and Trahearne were there.
- That's vivid. Thanks.
- I was Caithe, in my race's early years. I saw Faolain and Trahearne.
- This is a standard Inquest laboratory. Dark, dank, and intellectually uninteresting. Usually they have more glowy bits, but that varies by taste.
- She's surprisingly good, though she says it isn't her weapon of choice. She learned when she was in school, and she knows a ton about battle stances. I'm learning a lot. I plan to keep at it.
- Good plan. Be careful.
- It's fascinating how the new sprouts take in the world. I remember feeling and thinking as they do. Perhaps they could do as well as we did.
- Maybe even better. But that's not the point.
- I'll see you in Metrica Province, boss.
