Wanted to put a few quotes from the most recent writing with Firstborn Mianach to visuals, so I made these “cutscene” screencaps!

Exhibit A: Saw Kahedins shaping the Grove, Malomedies charting the stars, Trahearne cleansing Orr, and Niamh founding the Wardens and is looking upon them with pride and joy

Exhibit B: Someone just told him where babies come from

Being the first entry in Firstborn Mianach's journal written to catalog discovery and exploration on The Pale Mother's behalf.

Once upon a time, Morgan (the humble writer) fell in love with the Firstborn Sylvari. Once upon a time, Morgan (still the humble writer) discovered that two of the twelve Firstborn were listed as "Unknown". Once upon a time, Morgan (our ridiculous and presumptuous writer) decided to make a Firstborn to fit one of these missing two canon Firstborn.

And so, Mianach was born.

Mianach is a Dawn bloom with an insatiable curiosity whose Wyld Hunt is to explore, discover, and learn on behalf of the Pale Tree. So, at just two months old, he set out on his first voyage beyond the Caledon forest and into the unknown.

These are his adventures.

I hope you enjoy! Please feel free to leave comments!

@xiu-quatl read what I have on Firstborn Mianach and after experiencing sapling Mianach and his endless, curious questions, this meme was born.

Name: Mianach (MEE-ah-nock), “Mia” from close friends

Affiliation: The Pale Tree, Dragon’s Watch Year of Birth: Zephyr 2, 1302 AE (Dawn Bloom) Age: Firstborn, 30 years Occupation: Traveler and Explorer on behalf of The Pale Tree Class: Warrior/Revenant

Mianach was the first to awaken during Dawn on the first day of the Sylvari’s awakening into the world. He awoke with the Wyld Hunt to explore the world and bring back his findings to his brothers and sisters, and in particular, to the Pale Mother. As such, he wasn’t in the Grove long before he set out into Tyria to adventure and experience it firsthand. He was the first of the Firstborn to do so. Mianach was also the first Sylvari to encounter each of the other races of Tyria. He’s naturally inquisitive with an insatiable curiosity, always seeking new ideas, places, peoples, and theories. When observing the world in exploration, he always questions why things happen the way they do. In fact, he’s so insatiably curious that he’ll often rapid-fire questions regardless of manners or etiquette and can be rather point blank when there’s something he wants to know. In any case, he’s very childlike and harbors a deep well of emotion that comes out easily when impassioned. He can be quite emphatic and ardent. He can write and speak multiple languages, including a few dead ones, just so he can learn more unhindered. He hungers for ever more knowledge and new insight.
