#expansion 5

[aid-worker-sya]

my personal prediction for how the next expansion is gonna start based on that letter from anise to livia

the commander, trying to relax: the commander, answering their comms device: hello? anise: hey remember when 8 years ago you became an honorary blade and made that oath of confidence? remember how you're technically bound by duty to kryta and the throne but you're basically a special agent with special freedoms that's allowed to mostly do what you want as long as it's not against kryta? the commander, checking the gw2 wiki to see 8 years have actually passed in-universe between lws3 and soto: yeah? anise: yeah special freedoms time over get your ass over here NOW

GW2 Expansion 5 teaser

Okay, here me out...

This can't be a coincidence.

Not saying "we're going to pre-Searing Ascalon" or anything, after all the spot is already in-game technically, but the image choice had to be taking nostalgia into account.

EDIT: FOLLOW UP!

If this is true...

Istan in GW1 is internally referred to as "Delta". Now while some regions' internal names changed between the games (e.g., Ascalon became "Regrown" internally for GW2), I believe Kryta (Valley) held the same internal name for both games. Half of Istan is left unexplored still, and there is a bog there - Lahtenda Bog.

However, it's also possible that this time Delta is referring to the region north of Kryta - which has an actual delta connected to Janthir Bay.
