Sarosna.6708

I really liked the character as well. I only just got back into the game around 3 months ago and playing through the whole story was my first goal. Enjoyed every minute of it. I made a new, Sylvari female ranger main and I could easily imagine her being very close with Trahearne. The story elements in HoT only made the feeling stronger. Sure enough, the voice actor can be a bit bland at times but I feel like this was improved a lot in LW and HoT. I don't remember much of how the story originally was as I left for years after launch. I have heard that a lot of the dialogue was re-recorded. STORY SPOILERS The thing that bothers me the most is how his death is handled. I guess the whole seed thing makes sense so we have to kill him (although you would imagine that killing Mordremoth in his dimensional world would've taken care of it). But....when we kill Trahearne he basically turns into a beam of light. Apparently because at the same time we release Mordremoths power which in turn awakens Aurene and causes her to hatch. But what of Trahearne himself? There's no body. Why not? Sure enough there is the Caladbolg quest but that is NOT Trahearne. It's the sword's memory of him. We've died and gone to the Domain of the Lost. He wasn't there. And no, I don't think his spirit would be as weak as to fall prey to the monster there. He practically bested Mordremoth with his mind so puhleese. Then we meet an army of the dead with Eir and Snaff in the lead. We even see Gwen. Trahearne? Nowhere to be seen. Then of course there's the reference to him in Season 4 of LW. We find the Orrian Tablet at Displaced Towers and we get to read the final line of the orrian poem which according to Taimi was Trahearne's favorite. And of course the final line says: "And I will chase it back to you". It feels odd to me that they would make a reference like this and never do anything with it....we have Aurene now. We have the scrying pool. And Aurene also exists in the Mists now. So who knows. But if he does come back in one form or another I hope it won't be super cringy. I would be particularly interested in what the whole blending with Mordremoth thing did to him as a whole.
