It suddenly dawned on me when I read the name of the place Nightfall occurs in: Elonia. I remember back in Prophecies, doing the quest in pre-Searing when you help the foreign guy by talking with Miller Upton. He said he was from Cantha. In Factions, there's a craft material called Elonian Silk (Or cloth, can't remember which. Maybe fur.).

So, if this keeps going on, I'm thinking when NF is released, we might get the name of the next place in a little oft-overlooked thing. Doesn't help with the "How is it themed?" question, but we'll know what to call it .

Yea, it'll likely be mentioned there, yes. And it'll probably be something new, not yet presented in the game (both cantha and elona were referenced to in prophecies, but I can't think of any other "continent" cited so far).

Well, there's Orr, but wasn't that destroyed?

We could end up going way up North into Charr territory for chapter four. But I don't know how they are going to find a way to mention the Charr in Nightfall. If this happens.

You mean Elonian leather? that's been a rare craft material since rare craft materials existed? *cough*

Someone on another website suggested that Orr is underwater and has some semblance of a civilization, though it seems unlikely that this will be included.

It's my personal opinion that Chatper IV will take us into the far north of Tyria, as the Prophecies map suggests that the continent doesn't end at Ascalon and Kryta.

Elonian Leather Square... I have plaenty... you buy... yes?

This is very much true, and it will be exciting to find out how they will spur out the locale of the next chapter... I hope the name sounds cool to the ear.

There's always the North and West for a new location for the next chapter to take place.

This is the Location of Orr. The only way we would be able to travel there is if they did another Sorrows Furnace style update. Personally I think every expansion should Allow you to clear out the entire map. Hopefully they will make another expansion to Tyria for this reason.

Perhaps Elonians are very vain people

Very good observation, and I agree with you completely. On the subject of possible locations for Chapter 4, I believe there can be only 3 possibilities at the moment. Firstly, north of Tyria (or northern Tyria, whichever works), second, Orr. Not Orr in Tyria though, that would not introduce a big enough area for Anet. Perhaps Orr has sunk to the bottom of the ocean, or has been re-created somewhere by the ancient Orrian mage who sealed its fate so long ago. Third and last, an arctic continent. Somewhere where a malicious force has blah blah we know this already, don't we?

Thats very true, but the same can be said for the south and east sides of Cantha

I actually think the Elonian mirrors have nothing to do with Elonians. Other than that...they can make mirrors O.O

That quest was about the Ministry. They're too busy pretending to help people out to actually help them, this was just one example, handing mirrors out to the homeless. I bet the mirrors cost them more than food for these homeless Canthans would have.

I think a Charr related expansion would be great for one of the ones that doesn't contain new professions. Kind of a go back to Ascalon and head north of it to deal with the Charr. Maybe we find out that they were invading Ascalon because something had invaded them, so we must defeat the threat to the Charr to get the Charr to leave Ascalon.

I bet Anet will stab us in the guts again by introducing yet another crafting material that is either impossible to craft, or has no real pourpose for trading. Or, it could blame Elonia for leaving their Rubies and Sapphires lying around doing nothing.
