Guild Wars 2 Twilight Assault update promises “dark glamour” and “restless evil”

An apparent bad man wields a big gun.

If you go down to the woods today, you’re sure of an indeterminate surprise. I can’t possibly tell you what, exactly, because that’d ruin the surprise, and by association the song.

But once you’re done hacking bits off Tequatl, the magic water dragon, you might want to hang about Twilight Arbor ahead of a happening next Tuesday.

“Twilight Arbor is a place of dark glamour and restless evil.”

Tell us something we don’t know, ArenaNet. The Arbor is one of a few homes made by the Nightmare Court – a Sylvari contingent who’ve rejected the Ventari Tablet’s teachings and instead embraced the nightmares all of their race encounter during conception. They’re a separatist group who intend to corrupt the Pale Tree and its associated human-centaur philosophy with something uniquely Sylvari.

“Here, a bad seed has taken root… And her evil is growing.”

Huh. Okay. Any ideas on who specifically we might be assaulting deep in that fashion-conscious forest?
