• I'll go look right now.
• Who was Turai Ossa?
• Need help, eh? Look, I may be as old as dust, but that doesn't mean I've been in every crevice of this library. Try looking among the boxes here and in the wings upstairs.
• Weather Matic 5000 (Earth)
• Weather Matic 5000 (Ice)
• Weather Matic 5000 (Fire)
• Weather Matic 5000 (Lightning)
• I need more help. Do you have any idea what I might be looking for?
• These ancient artifacts will do nicely to anchor you! I'll break the wax seal, then give the tome to Miss Delaqua. She can advise you while you complete the challenges. Are you ready for this?
• Banana Peel
• Double-Click to equip a banana peel.
• Graveyard
• I'm definitely ready.
• Give me a minute or two to collect my thoughts.
• Starter Sword
• We investigated Kudu's testing grounds, but he managed to escape. Still, we discovered that Kudu's device is incredibly dangerous—it could permanently alter the weather in Rata Sum. I have to warn the Arcane Council!
• Zojja and I faced down Kudu in the Arcane Council chambers of Rata Sum. By the time we were done, everything was drenched— but the city was safe. Other than a few washed-out golems, that is. And boy, were the Arcane Council...er..."grateful."
• Defeat the Inquest saboteurs.
• It's a human ritual that allowed them to commune with their ancient benefactors. Humans called them gods. Those who successfully performed it received power and knowledge.
• Ta-daaa! Hmm. Okay, what'd I miss?
• On behalf of the research team out of Lion's Arch, thank you for cleansing Orr. Arah is an antiquities researcher's gold mine. Now we just need to kill that dragon, and we can start digging.
• What will you be digging for?
• How is this tied to the symbol in the Silverwastes cave?
• .
• The Forgotten served those same masters: the Old Gods.
• Do you think the Forgotten are inside the cave?
• Doubtful, though one never knows. It's believed that the last of them disappeared long ago.
• So what do I need to do?
• A long-dead memory, I'm afraid. The man led a pilgrimage from Elona to the Crystal Desert to seek Ascension, but he and all of his followers failed.
• And we're going to talk to him?
• Hm? What can I do for you?
• Can you give me additional help in locating what we need?
• I know this symbol. The Forgotten were ancient and powerful snake beings, very similar in appearance to the krait, but far more advanced and intelligent. They wielded great magic.
• This is their symbol?
• It is known as a Forgotten seal. I've seen something like this before, in an ancient tome, here in the Priory. Based on Miss Delaqua's description, I'd say you found a slot for one of their seals.
• A sylvari once inserted a golden seal to trigger the cave's portal to open.
• Perhaps we can override the magical lock. I've read of a way to reproduce divine fire. It's extremely dangerous, and you'll only get one shot. But the divine fire could influence Forgotten magic.
• What is divine fire?
• It's a ritual that allowed your ancestors to commune with their ancient benefactors. Your people called them gods. Those who successfully performed it received power and knowledge.
• Very well. It's your death. Since you insist on continuing, go up to Special Collections and find the tome about the gods and divine fire. Your journey starts within its pages.
• Thank you. I'll find it.
• It will be interesting to see how the divine fire interacts with the entrance to the cave. Theoretically, it will have an effect, though I could be wrong. Take it there and see what happens.
• This fire, it's not hot. Could it be dangerous?
• Of course it could, but to whom is the question. For all we know, the fire could fade over time. And the wax seal is broken; we can't repeat the ritual.
• Take the torch, and go straight there. I'll meet you when I'm ready.
• We must get in that cave. It may lead us to Caithe.
• Oh, call me Ogden. Both of you. We've been through a lot together. No need to stand on Priory ceremony. I hope to see you again soon.
• As do I. Jory, we should go.
• You never did say what you think Caithe's motive was for taking the egg. Do you have a theory?
• I have several, but none are fully formed enough to share.
