Nemo surdior est quam is qui non audiet

Maybe they are planning to kick of a "big" world event soon.... Hmmm. Or we got a hacker that's a heckuva troll.

Think it's classic symbolism.

Lion - Courage
Ram - Power
Raven - Ill Omen / Death

Would still leave Death unexplained. I'm guessing this is a personification (thinking Regulos).

Iron Ram: The Iron Ram is a pair of giant iron spikes used for torture and execution. Spiral patterns are engraved into the surface, but they are not for decoration - upon piercing an enemy, they allow the blood to flow freely. They are constructed so that the killing power increases with applied force.

Would be the most hilarious Secret World advertisement ever.

guys, I think Crucia is coming

I dunno man. They got Hollywood connections. You sure they are not involved with the "Finding Nemo" sequal or something. I hear there's a good market for CGI. ;)

I'm really new to the game so I could easily be missing hidden references but regardless this is weird and I like it.

The voices echoed in chamber halls,
Through valleys wide and darkened den
The time has come for all to heed
For the flesh of Telara shall be rend

Sounds beastly - can't really see much in it. Describing Ember Isles?

As an answer comes with great resound
The drums of war fill the bitter air
Three points the blade, but two edges bleed
Not merely one thrust for the bloody fare

Drums of war feels Maelforge-like. The blade and bleeding might be talkign about the "alliance" between Maelforge and Laethys. The ascended might be the third point. Or possibly Laethys taking advantage of the war between the Ascended and Maelforge.
In any case I'm quite sure it's supposed to symbolise a struggle between two factions, with a third faction taking advantage of it.

The fog of war, blood bridle deep
The time is now, a chance to decide
Which song you sing, which promise you keep
To bear upon Death's dear sweet bride

Blood, song, promises and decisions. We know the first bard played a role in the imprisoning of Maelforge.
Death's bride could mean either Crucia (bride of Regulos in lore) or life, as life and death always come together - without one you don't have the other. Or something else completely ofcourse (like the first bard imprisoning Maelforge even in death).

Growing seeds of domination born
All opposition shall give way
To an empire spanning from sea to sea
The iron Ram the only way

Seeds make me think "Life". Domination and takign over the world could correspond with any planar faction.
Growing seeds could also mean children. In this case, Maelforge's eggs?
The iron Ram could be Rusila's boat, seeing as it would be the only way to cross the seas if Laethys would have succeeded.

A promise given forever more
To conquer and to shed all fear
Never to rule, but born of war
The Lion’s vigil to protect those held dear.

Deffinately talking about Ascended saving the day.

The Raven’s consequence of a latter day,
Our destruction will meet no end
Telara is doomed by our ill born fate
Unless we continue to ascend.

Raven is often an omen, and this is talk of consequences. Think this paragraph means nothing more than "We're gonna destroy this place." Last two lines are still quite vague.

What is going on in this thread?

I think you're being too literal here, I think it's about Crucia laying down the groundwork, the seeds if you will, to control the minds (domination) of everyone as she has always wanted.

[Anuhart]

Awwww, man.


It's nearly 3 am, I was just going to sleep. I got no chance now.

Anyway, I think it's a Crucia introduction. Remember Acky was dead in game weeks, months even, before he was.
The ice is melting in IPP from the heat of the EI volcano, we can even fish there now.

Be afraid.

[rapidblue]

well the "devs" name could be saying this if you look at your phone and see the letters on each number

3-factions-up
or
3-factions-us

[Charlice]

Awwww, man.
