I haven't read the manual as I don't have a .pdf reader, unless someone can point me in the direction of a non-pdf manual? But from that quote I think it means a metaphorical transformation, I think that witnessing a legendary battle being refought, a battle that your entire race and belief system is based around might change your outlook on life. I could be wrong...wouldn't be the first time.

So that's what they were hidding under the beards...

So that's why female Dwarves do not have beards in Linage II?
They are silvary?

Me thinks the transformation is metaphorical too, not physical. Perhaps the race becomes more unified, or concentrate less on mining, etc.

actually I think it would be cool if they did turn to stone and be extinct or some sort of frozen in time type of thing... Could make for some interesting stories in GW2... if they awaken or whatever.

Hot sylvari are female counterparts to dwarves? WTF that's like the whole "how'd-that-dumba**-Roger-Rabbit-get-a-chick-like-Jessica" mentality.

I'm more willing to believe that the slyvari are actually evolved Iboga. The thing is, the level 1-6 Beautiful Iboga are ALWAYS killed off by adventurers trying to level up, therefore the Iboga race has always been limited to being stunted power-levelling fodder.

With the threat of Abaddon gone and many Elonians going out of town on vacation (says so in the manual), the Iboga are left to thrive, grow up. And thanks to some rather questionable cross breeding with a very adventurous Great Zehtuka (surely you have heard the tales of The Great Zehtuka and his theories on how "Ibogas have very purdy mouths...", the humanoid DNA had to come from somewhere), the Beautiful Iboga eventually evolve into the Slyvarian race.
