Default [Elona=Tyria]

This Is Something Many People Have Been Talking About And Even Some Are A Bit Skeptical As I Was. So I figured I Would Take The Time To Show You All.

People Have Been Hearing That There Is Portal That Grants Access Across The Desert From Crystal Desert (Tyria) To Crystal Overlook (Elona). And Yes It's True. Below Is A Picture Of Portal In The Arid Sea (Tyria).


[Just To Point Out. There Is An Elonian Chest In Tyria XD]

And Here Is A Picture Showing That The Borders Of Elona Are Clearly Not That Far Away From The Borders Of Tyria.



Hope You All Enjoyed This. Haha. =D

You Can Not Take The Portal From Tyria Unless You Got To Bone Palace (Elona) First, But If You Get To Bone Palace You might as Well Go a Bit Further And Reach The The Portal To Tyria. So In Other Words. You Can't (no point) Go From Tyria To Elona By Desert. To Go From Elona To Tyria The Quest Should Be At Bone Palace. Kk.

I've shown this many times, but I'll do it again.

I made this before nightfall even came out, I was swift about it.

Although Elona is considered seperate, ALL of Nightfall is in fact the same continent as Tyria. For awhile I just considered Elona a part of Tyria, But I suppose they can still be considered seperate, the way Europe and Asia are seperate but on the same "Chunk" of land.

Elona is to Europe as Tyria is to Asia.

If you mean the sizes of the continents, it makes more sense like this.

If you don't mean the sizes... well, then I don't understand what you wanted to say

its interessting, and realy exciting to see such a view as posted above with the statue.............. but its nothing new.... logically you could deduct this way earlier only with knowing nightfall is place in kinda desert....

Me by myself would love to see a complete map with locations of tyria, cantha AND elona all together...

The poster of that meant that while Tyria and elona are one chunk of land connected to each other, they're still seperate. So it's compared to Asia and Europe. One big chuck of island divided into two continents.

Yes that's right.

I'm not comparing them in size, I'm comparing them in the sense that Tyria and Elona are on the same chunk of land, but are still seperate "continents"

Chapter 4 will be (for lack of a better term at this point) "The Northlands" which may very well be a comeback against the Charr, but there is no info on that part yet, all we know is it will be situated north. (I believe Cantha is situated Northwest as well, I've found another map relation but I'm a little unsure). So if my info is correct, Chap4 geographically will be north of Tyria and East of Cantha, and nowhere near Elona.

Chapter 5: We have absolutely no leads on. I'd like to see more jungle and forest areas. There aren't enough closed-in forests.

Oh And To Make Something Clear So People Don't Get Confused. As Far As Text And My "Research" Goes... Cantha Is Not Connected To The Mainlands Of Tyria Or Elona.

it is not, because as you are told in LA by the canthan merchant at the port, its "south[...], across the OCEAN"

But id like to see that map relation, maybe im wrong or their statments dont fit the truth

To NaimaOmadara:

Stop typing in all caps and bold. Seriously. Now, to everyone who thinks I'm a total loony because OBVIOUSLY it's not in all caps...

The word filter catches people who type every single thing in caps (it has to be every single letter) and owns their posts in that way (makes only the first letters in caps.)
