pyreo:GW1 (2005) // GW2 (2012)Mount Maelstrom (and Timberline Falls)250 years ago the dwarves entered a kind of hive-mind finality, and dropped everything they’d ever built on the surface to rot. Which means, naturally, a variety of creatures coming to live on the remnants. Many places in this area have names that refer to what they used to by, implying the memories have stuck, despite this being a fairly remote location. Droknar’s Forge is underwater and now inhabited by Quaggan. Else where Krait have used the risen water levels to move in and seem to have used old dwarven platforms for construction of their sea towers. The largest Inquest base on the map, Infinity Coil, was planted nearby along with other experiments (you may recognise Port Sledge as the namesake for the Old Sledge Site Waypoint, used frequently against Inquest Golem Mk II). The former Port Sledge now hosts a sylvari outpost instead of ships. These coral-caked fortresses and ruined ships of sunken Droknar’s Forge—dwarven stronghold and waypoint for the greatest heroes of Tyria—are haunted by the glory of past ages. -- source link
