It seems to me, and don't get me wrong, kind of odd that G'raha even exists. It's far too soon to say he's really gone, but for now he just seems like an exceptionally cruel bait-and-switch meant for male Miqo'te players hoping to see one of our own join the main cast. Not only did he steal the spotlight at the end the 2.1 trailer, he wears unique gear and shares a ton of elements with our existing core cast, so they can't have expected us to not want more from him than we got.

Maybe they just wanted him to be memorable, in that sad, gone-forever sort of way. Or he could just be sleeping until that inevitable point in MS when Y'shtola quips: "Well, it's not like there's any living Allagan royalty left for us to ask."

There's a thread over in Lore where I hope to cobble together as many tidbits as I can of the things not yet fully realized about the Crystal Tower arc. To show support for a continuation, if nothing else.
