Gwen's items, once shown to her after the Ebon Vanguard arc, will trigger Gwen's quests

"Then and Now, here and there"

and maybe

"Fire and Pain"

Here is what gwen says when you try the Then and now quest



Time to see what she has for me =o

I just did ._.

A few notes

1. Once this quest is active, the diessa lowlands will be filled with lvl 20 charr
2. She takes her tapestry shred back (And maybe a flower?)
3. This looks like a proph character only quest

Well, you'll need access to Prophecies, so probably NF chars will be able to do it as long as they have the item and access to Proph.

Not a certain thing, though.

Can't wait to see what else yu can do with those items

And would someone mind telling me where the rest of these items come from?

The only one I ever bothered to pick up was that rather oddly placed Preserved Iris found in the chest in the middle of that corsair camp.

You need...

1. Tapestry Shred

Become friends with Gwen in PRE-SEARING by giving her a cape and flute and some red iris flowers, once her affection is high enough for you, she'll give you it.

2. Red Iris Flower (Not preserved)

Get one in pre-searing or in GWEN

Tapestry fragment comes from Pre-Searing, you get it from the young version of Gwen. Broken Flute comes from the same place.

There used to be a Tattered Girl's Cape in Old Ascalon, but it's been discontinued, I think.

Oh, anybody took Gwen with them in the Underworld? Because her mom is there...

At the end of the quest, Gwen gives you her item, the flute you gave her all those years ago. This time it's turned into a mesmer focus.

Can you put it in the weapons section of your HoM?

Also, if you do more Gwen quests, do you get a weapon as well? I just think it would be nice to have her equipped with her own weapons

How fitting, a Green 'Gwen's Flute' for your hero Gwen.

Well, there is a Master Rank quest she gives you for what I can only assume is a dungeon, but I'm not doing that right now since it's past a buttload of fire enemies.

Interesting. I'm a bit disappointed with the mods though. I mean, can't they make it more usable?

Drat. Kept the flowers, never got the tapestry shred.

Guess I'll have to create another pre-searing character.

Her story [in your screen shot] kind of sounds a bit like the plot behind a anime series called Claymore.

Can anyone confirm if this can ONLY be done with Tyrian characters?

I don't see why that would be the case ... couldn't you just make a new Tyrian character (throwaway) to grab the Tapestry? It requires that you own Proph, but I don't see why it would require a Tyrian character specifically.

Well, from a Lore point of view, it would make sense for the toon to be tyrian. That way, all the history between the character and Gwen would be factual. After all, NF or Factions chars don't go to Pre.

It'd be funny if she used it with the /flute command.

Any word on the master quest she gives you?

I can confirm that the quest - "Then and Now, here and there" which leads back to ascalon and the flute reward, requires the Tapestry shred to be in your inventory

"Fire and Pain", the other quest she gives requires the preserved iris flower. I have not completed this yet but I get the impression that it is just a bonus quest and is not Gwen related.

The broken flute and red iris flowers serve no purpose.

She took the red iris flower from me, not the preserved.

I did the master quest with heroes, really wasnt that tough....definitely worth it though. The rose focus offhand (green item, like the flute) looks really sweet, liek a single red rose....will post a screeny later. its req9 fast casting, halves skill recharge of spells 10% and plus 30 health.

I entered with all four items - dropped them all and systematically placed them one at a time in my inventory to see which quests she offered.

With just the red iris flower, she didn't offer me any quests, same with the broken flute.

The shred is definately for the Then and now quest (Flute), as indicated by the dialog.

Perhaps it only works with a tyrian for the normal red iris flower. The preserved one might be a way for non-tyrians to get something out of gwen, without getting into the ascalonian quest (and all of Gwen's bonding moments with the player that goes with it :P).

I've been carrying around this stupid piece-of-junk for years! That was her first flute. She eludes to it in the quest dialog when you goto her house.

As for the other quest she took my preserved red iris flower. I didn't have a red iris flower on me. So maybe if you are holding both it takes a non preserved one. I'm also a tyrian for reference.

I finished the Fire and pain quest and this is what the skin for the green item you get from it looks like. Females will probably want it on their mesmer.
