    Seeing as after Stone Vigil HM they state that it has been reclaimed, t'would be kind of interesting if they made an open world version of SV and you could see it being repaired and turned back to its "former glory over subsequent updates, just like Revs Toll expanding.

    But SV HM has expanded out knowledge somewhat of the Dragons. That they are set up pretty much as a military force with specialized roles, followers gain, somehow, even the ability to turn into a dragon. But still a lot of unanswered questions.

    Why is there war between the Ishagardians and the Dragons? Was it started over territory or have the Ascians been at the forefront, sowing dissension and actually initiating the war. A simple question, what came first? The Ishgardians or the Dragons ^^

    Or to put another way, who really are the "bad guys"?

    I really hope this is explored someday, and I imagine it will be.

    Part of me wonder if the Dravanians have been waging a war on man ever since the Allag enslaved some of dragonkind.

    I never liked this idea. I mean, it's a fine leap to make given the context, but another famous Ishgardian heretic who used Dragon's Blood and turned into an aevis was our foe the faux Guillaime. This is important because our journal specifically states (as does Guillaime himself during the fight I believe) that this simply a glamour-- a bit of magick made him to look and act like a dragon, but still a man nonetheless.

    While we're on the subject of Dravinians and Allagans though, I have to wonder if the Dravinian's odd form of creating thralls and general social structure (seeming more like a hive honestly) has anything to do with years of neurolink enslavement.
