Where did they go ? Will we see them in Eye of the North ? So far I haven't seen any indication that we will see them in EOTN. Will they be a suprise or have they been forgotten ? Your thoughts are always welcome!

I wouldn't be surprised to see them. Glint, especially.

Glint stays in her little world in a grain of sand in the Crystal Desert. I wouldn't expect her to drag her ass out to help.

I'd like to see Glint shapeshifted as Human.

Dragons love to do so sometimes.

Well considering we have 2 Shining Blade heroes, I wouldn't be surprised to see Evenia make at least a cameo or something.

I've been wondering if the Great Zehtuka will show up again. but I think he's been killed, as he's seen in torment.

I was hoping Jatoro would be a hero, but a random appearance would be good too.

haha, ya Suwash would be awesome to have back. He could be like a Corsair captain now, or some such.

It would definitely be cool to see Glint back on the scene. I think it's odd that she's been so absent. You'd think the first being made by the gods would be involved in stopping Nightfall.. weird.

She lives in a grain of sand, why would she ever leave?
Plus, she has eggs to take care of, or do you think your mother just left you when you were a baby child to fight evil !?

What happened to Shiro and The Lich? We killed them and they got back, will they get back again!?
There are so more interesting things to question.

She doesn't have to GO anywhere to make an impact. She didn't go anywhere in the first game. It's still odd that she has no part in the subsequent battles when she is th original being, and a phophetess.

So help me if Jatoro shows up, I'm turning a flesh golem loose on him. He's caused enough trouble already.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Evennia, Jatoro, and Suwash...in the Norn Tournament!

(Hey it's possible.)

"...We're very big into narrative and storylines," said Jeff Grubb, the title's Creative Director. "(In Eye of the North) we've thrown in story elements that are nods to our fans." According to Grubb, one of the major reasons for returning to Tyria was simply because out of the three locations in their universe that the Guild Wars team has created, it's always been Tyria that's produced the most passion. Eye of the North will answer many of the requests fans have made since the end of Prophecies. Who are the Charr and what's happened to their society since the players killed their gods in Prophecies? When can we get back to a pretty fantasy universe more like pre-Searing Ascalon? Will we even find out what happened to a lot of the characters we came to care about in those games?

The other reason is a bit more prosaic. Eye of the North is a bridge to Guild Wars 2, not only from a gameplay mechanics perspective, but also from a storytelling perspective. Eye of the North is designed to set up races and situations that won't pay off for another 200 years when Guild Wars 2 is set. "We want to give people a lot of stuff to speculate about," Grubb smiles. "Our lore fans are very passionate and very good at predicting things."..."

How do we know she didn't? She may just have been manipulating someone else from behind the scenes rather than interacting directly with the PCs - the Order of Whispers, perhaps. Or given the way the manipulated the PCs into helping the Lich so he could be brought down later, she may even have been ultimately responsible for causing Nightfall in order to precipitate Abaddon going down once and for all now rather than having him break out sometime later when the world didn't have anything that could stop him? Being prophetic, she seems just the type to cause a disaster now to prevent a greater one later.

Come to think of it, wasn't the Prophecies campaign basically Abaddon's opening move, meaning that if she foresaw that, she may have foreseen the whole thing? Wasn't there also a prophecy about Nightfall?

Or it could be that all those so-called Protectors of Tyria really did slay her, and she was only able to hang around in spirit for long enough for the PCs to complete the Titan Quests before being pulled all the way into the Mists...

It's a little far fetched to think that the heroes of Ascalon just randomly decided to kill Glint after completing her test... although technically she did attack us first after touching an egg.

But, yeah, she's a prophet so she saw what was coming and probably manipulated events to defeat Abaddon.

I'd also put my bets on the Scepter of Orr making an appearance in GW:EN. Possibly in relation to the Asura and the Tarnished Coast.

That could perfectly be an illusion.

She seems to be still able to comunicate when you get to Droknar's.

Still, I wouldn't put it past her for both Glint and her eggs to have been some kind of aspect or illusion - she may have foreseen that the bonus groups would go for her eggs and end up killing her for them so she made the fakes to let them think they had their victory. After all, you certainly don't seem to actually get anything for taking an egg out with you apart from an extra thousand experience and another bonus towards your Protector title...

Doing bonus in Glint's Cave not count towards canon what happened, bonuses was just to do something else during missions.

No one is mentioning the beings that live in the Mists that took Shiro into the afterlife in the first place! They will most definitely be an impact in GW2 and GWEN! You know the ones I am talking about, the ghosts with ugly, bloody, holes in their heads and scars and such... I forgot their names >< ><;;

And what about Suun, the first time we heard of the Mists, they were explained from that Priest in Nahpui!

This is going to be a TIE IN with GW2, so don't be surprised if a lot of it isn't reflecting on the older stuff, and more focused on the new topics that will be heavier in GW2 such as : The Mists, etc.

Just my own Opinion!

Not sure where Evennia has gone. Since Kryta is in civil war she would paly a big part in that but from what i have heard we wotn be heading back to Kryta......most likely we will be hearing about the events from Livia.

As for Glint it seems Anet have replaced her with the Eye of the North. Perhaps she could serve a purpose near the end or during GW2.

There are so more interesting things to question. Shiro and the Lich may make an appearence in the Norn 1 v 1 Arena (Has will most likely Rurik) but we pretty much destroyed their spirits in the RoT.They wont be back to impact the story.

Thanks for you replies guys. I was just finishing getting my Dervish though Prophecies the other day and I was like hmmm, wonder what happened to Glint and Evennia because you don't hear from them anymore. Anyway, either way it would be cool to see them again if not no big deal we got new faces in EOTN to learn about

At that point, the Realm of Torment was still considered to be an unbreakable prison. They may even have been right - Nightfall wasn't about Abaddon leaving Torment, it was about expanding Torment to cover the world.

The Envoys certainly weren't expecting the PCs to go into Torment after him...

There are plenty of adjectives and nouns that could be used to describe the Envoy's claims about what would happen to Shiro, but they weren't lying - to tell a lie one has to know one is speaking a falsehood, while they believed they were telling the truth and it just turned out that they were mistaken.

I assume they though a prison that could hold a god was more than good enough to hold Shiro...

With the exception of Courier Torivos, they all seem to be human. I do hope we get some backstory on them on GW:EN though. They were always very interesting and mysterious to me.

They could add the remaining 3 realms and make them be in one of them, giving quests.
