Default Is Tyria Really Earth?

Could Tyria be Earth?

I have a theory. Tyria is really our own planet Earth (Terra) in the distant future... maybe long after some global catastrophe decimates all that we know (perhaps due to a global searing of our own doing).

Why would I think this? Well, standing in Droknar's Forge while waiting for a friend to show up, I found myself taking a good long look at the moon. No question about it... that's our moon! How can this be... unless...



Could it be... that as countless ages passed... that "Terra" became known as "Tyria"?

Well, that would account for why the game uses earthly idolic symbols like the Ankh, Cross, Pentagram, Star of David, and others.

The map also really reminds me of areas spanning France (In the south west), England (Shiverpeaks?), Maguuma (United States?)

Or maybe they were just too lazy to make their own moon, so they just decided to wing it and use ours

Well, JRR Tolkien's Middle Earth is actually (accoriding to him), Earth 7000-6000 BCE.

Did you get to the part of the game where the Lich tells you he didn't kill your father .... and that he is your father?

Boy was I shocked!
