That looks like the really big statue in the Arid Desert. And if it is, then it's confirmed then that Elona is just south of Tyria.

It's a big statue of a female warr in knight's armor. When you get close it's actually in pieces on the ground which is kinda wierd...

That's the same statue that can be seen in the Arid Sea, in Tyria. It's only a ghostly visage though, as when you approach it you realise it has toppled over and been destroyed.

Ghostly visage, or collapsed statue? I guess the timing would be kinda lucky to see a collossus randomly choose to fall right before your eyes.

actually it falls as you approach it, just keep an eye on it as you walk toward it and you can see it fall

Elonian lore mentions the Crystal Desert to the north of Elona.

I wisited that place yesterday and i find it really amazing that the Crystal Desert is so close to the Elona border, closer then i first thought.
Just a mountain or sand dunes that devide them. That's really cool!

And it's indeed the Colossus that collapses in the Crystal Desert (Arid Sea) as you aproch it. (Atlest it looks like it does untill you see it shatterd on the ground, like most of the statues there) I agree on the Ghostly Visage theory, a mere print in the old days that it's still standing.

Here's some pic i took, from Elona and the Crystal Desert in Tyria.
Even the lineup of it is perfect (the back showing to Elona, aswell for the teleporter is centerd) you arrive slightly behind it (a rock wall) and to the left of it in Tyria.

Where exactly is that in Elona? I know where I can find the statue from in Tyria, but I had no clue you could see it from Elona. I'd like to see it for myself, along with the teleport thing.

Here's the location from were you can see the statue and the teleporter to Tyria (Crystal Desert)

1 = The Statue overlook
2 = The Teleporter


Colossus Location.jpg

Note the name of the area at the Teleporter "Crystal Overlook" A suting name indeed!
(A overlook twords the Crystal Desert). Even the sand and buildings there are the same like in Tyria, Crystal Desert. Really nice to se!
