Tumblr crosspost (2 April 2020)
Nov. 19th, 2021 04:17 pmI crossposted Chs 15-21 of pro patria, with a few footnotes.
Ch 16 notes:
1) the guild wars: a bloody war between actual guilds that took place shortly before the first game, Guild Wars: Prophecies.
2) Anise’s vibrant hair: Anise has very long, beautiful red hair.
Ch 17 note:
1) Eitel-the-Unlovable: Zamon’s retainer is a Norn, a member of a species of giant, vaguely Scandinavian shapeshifters.
Ch 20 note:
1) Ascalonian, sir, and proud of it: the line that inspired the whole fic! It solely (as far as I know) determines Deborah’s appearance in the cinematics, but Deborah and the PC being proud Ascalonians seemed something that would profoundly influence them, given the dynamics at play in GW1/Eye of the North/GW2.
Ch 21 notes:
1) the gate to Lion’s Arch: there’s a sparkly Asura gate/portal to Lion’s Arch (the central city of the whole game) from the human home district of Divinity’s Reach.
2) jumped from waypoint to waypoint: waypoints are location markers that let you teleport between them for a price (varying by distance between them).
