Default Earthquakes in Tyria(Cantha speciffically)
I've been preparing my chars for GW:EN, and the time has come to take some of them that haven't visited Cantha through those missions. The thing is, most of Kaineng City (outside of the Centre + Raisu Palace) doesn't really look like it has been built with seismic hazard in mind(in fact most of it looks like it's going to be blown away by a slightly stronger wind )
So imagine what's gonna happen when earthquakes hit... (If I had any money on my chars I'd organize a Kaineng:Aftermath drawing contest )

Everything is made of wood there. I wonder why it hasn't been burned down already. They must have an excellent fire department there.

what and since they hired a civil engineer and kaineng will be layed out in a sensible manner on one level, we can only hope.

Petrified wood doesn't burn very well

kaineng is such a hole that a few earthquakes would probably improve that slum.

the OP doesn't know that Cantha and Tyria are two separate continents...and since supposedly EOTN is north of current Tyria...that would mean Cantha has nothing to do with it.

Really Tyria and Elona are two regions on the same continent (supposedly, still hasn't been proven completely)....we just don't know what that continent name is...but Cantha is definitely not part of it.

Tyria is the name of the planet/world if people didn't know. It is also the name of a continent.

I always thought tyria and elona were two separate regions, and that there was no given name for the continent or "world". I've always referred to tyria as "prophecies lands", for lack of a better term.

hahaha, I was just looking for that quote.

It'll be interesting to see how they are going to explain earthquakes occurring.

Go to the Crystal Overlook zone in the desolation, you can see the statue in the Arid sea from the northern parts of the area, and can warp between the two zones. Proof enough?

There is loads of the Canthan map that is inaccessible at this time. My guess is the earthquakes will open up on the western edge of the mainland, below the "kaineng" area.
