Has this been discussed here yet?
What you guys think about this verse?
When it talks about Primal Desires i understand it talking about the most basic feelings which that would be hate and love? but that two swords will lay them down..both of them not just evil has me confused..
the two swords are different and man will have to choose which one will decide their fate

The first line of the prophecy was spoken by Urianger when you arrive at the headquarters of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. I would take it to indicate that the arrival of the adventurers blessed by the Crystal at Vesper bay, both new and Legacy, is the beginning of the dawn that they speak of.

Immediately after that, you have an encounter with a primal.

As a blade born of the crystals light you felled it, only to be watched by a sword of might from the Empire.

All that's left is the last line...

Do I have this figured out already? D=

There's a preview translation for the ConnectOn! Interview in the JP to English thread.... Urianger was a temporary NPC and is taking a break...? Maybe he'll be back later.

More interesting tidbit was that Legacy PCs will be treated slightly differently than new players when it comes to NPC dialogue. So Loremongers need to be sure to make a new character in ARR. To get both sides of the story. To survivors of the SUE, PCs who transferred from 1.0 story line are called "Hollow Beings". Of course, this is a translation and the localization team may call us something else in English.

I wonder why they would give us a name with such a negative connotation?

It appears that the Mystery of Urianger is gone sorta and he's back. I haven't heard the exact reference to Hollow Beings. The legacy players are described by Baderon as people who's name is on the tips of people's tongues but they can't quite remember them. "Like a bird against the sun" they can only see them vaguely in their minds. They're "hollow presences" it seems, is in people's memories.

Nope.

Hint (only if you want it)

But all is not yet lost. Sensing the gravity of the situation, our master—the allseer—has arrived to begin his search for Daybreak—one of the blades mentioned in the Divine Chronicles.

The truth is usually right under your nose.

OMG HE'S LET THE ELK OUT OF THE BAG!!!!1

LOL. Yeah... Beta has changed my mind about a lot of the ideas I had floating around for lore articles. I thought it'd be fun to do a, "this is your enemy" article about Ascians, but we were told so little about them in V1 and Team Yoshi-P has (rightly) come on very strong with it in ARR, so that article isn't necessary. Moreover, I really don't like writing about the future. I'll keep up with current lore events and help catalog the past properly, but the future is all for SE.

That said, I'll still talk about it here!

Dawn may banish even the darkest night, a blade born of light, a sword named Daybreak. Seems like a lot to chalk up to coincidence. They're most likely related.
