setting up a gw2 sideblog aaaa dont look at me yet

I was sitting around comparing the world map of Guild Wars 1 to GW2's world map, specifically trying to figure out where Ventari's refuge might have been in the GW2 world.

Basically, this puts it right in the middle of the Guilded Hollow guild hall. Which caused me to remember...there is a very large tree at the very top of the Guild Hall. (In GW1, Ventari's Refuge was located under a large tree.)

Bonus, I just realized they painted the skybox texture to show Mordremoth's tree in the distance.

Well, I did say I wasn’t done with charr comics. (Or… you know, comics in general).

Grothmar Valley was an awesome episode. The map metas were fun (including the concert, which I openly dreaded before launch) and I really loved the ambient storytelling the map managed to put across. It also came with not just one, but two absolutely lovable charr - Flame “imperator” Efram Greetsglory & Shaman Brightblaze.

This is a little something I wrote way back, when the episode first came out, and wanted to eventually turn into a comic. I can’t say I’m exactly 100% happy with the result, but… eh, it’s done. And if it makes at least a few people happy, that’s what matters to me.

… although the background always makes me feel like Nero should just burst into singing The Sound of Music. I guess overly-idyllic rolling lush hills just have that effect on people.

And as before, this comic was sponsored by ArenaNet, but its contents are not sanctioned by GW2 staff or official in any way, so don’t count them as canon.
