As someone who rarely checks so much as their quest log to know where they're going I'm just wondering how you know this. I only stop and read things in-game if it looks interesting enough

Well it is known from The Domain of anguish that the titans are Twisted souls that are turned into Titans in the foundry of failed creations. As souls they have no natural body. Then note when in Green Areas the Titans take on the aspects of the Greenery around them, while in the shiverpeaks they take on an icy aspect, and while in the Fire Isle they take on a rocky Fire aspect just like their surroundings. Also note that when they go through the portals in the Hell's Precipice mission they go through as Fire Like Titans yet when you face them they no longer appear in that form.

I could be wrong but it all points to the titans taking on aspects of there surroundings.

Very similar to Droughtlings/ Mesa's, with respect to the dry Elonian soil.

If someone can draw Please peace together a map that would be great. So far I see Elona attached to the cristal dessert but I can't find Cantha. I'm kinda new to that place and haven't had time to play much, but would really like to know how the map fits together and maybe that can put chapter 4 in prespective on weather or not they are going to add a new place or upgrade old ones? sorry if I sound like a noob I havn't been following the story after chapter 1 too closely and I'm paying for it.

We now know that ch4 is called Eye of the North so that is possible the "northern regions". From the screenshot that we have probably all seen by now it looks like its a snow map.

I now have a much clearer view of the layout of the 4 campaigns:
Prophecies is the "middle" with elona off to the ease nearer the crystal desert.
The eye of the north map will be north of tyria possibly following the lines of the shiverpeaks.
Cantha is south of the other 3 campaigns on a different island.

The 1st picture in this thread just about prooves that Elona is East of Tyria. This could be part of the Shiverpeaks. Here is a link.

Now slightly a different topic but still on the layout of the maps. The subject of Gwen.
Gaile Gray has aparently hinted that the saga of gwen will be resolved sooner or later. Gwen started in pre searing in Prophecies and has not been seen since. Although she has not been seen there have been traces of her, prooving here condition. In old Ascalon you could find her broken flute, and somwhere else in tyria you could find a tattered cape. Gwen seemed forgotten in Cantha, but when nightfall was released tou could find a preserved Iris flower which is another item linked to gwen.

I will start a new thread regarding this topic. Here is the link.

I am sure we might see a little bit more of ascalon.

he city of Drascir, former capital of Ascalon, lies far beyond the protection of The Great Northern Wall, due north of Surmia. It fell into the hands of the invading Charr years ago.
Drascir was also known for its Academy of the Arcane Arts, the sister academy of Nolani Academy.
King Adelbern and Prince Rurik were born in Drascir.
As described in the Lore, the Tombs of Drascir, eternal resting place for the ancient kings of Ascalon, were once used as a portal to the Hall of Heroes. It is unknown whether the Tomb of Drascir is located in the city of Drascir, or somewhere further north.

(all taken from guildwiki, but of course i am not too sure how accurate it is.)

The side quests in the Realm of Torment help shed some light and tie some loose ends with regards to certain story elements in Prophecies and Factions:
The Charr invasion and The Searing were guided by the Titans. These demonic creatures were in league with Abaddon to destroy as much of Tyria as possible.
Abaddon was also behind The Cataclysm, the event which brought about the end of Orr. Terick, a demonic agent of Abaddon, tricked Vizier Khilbron into using the forbidden magic and destroying the ancient city of Arah. This was the objective of Abaddon who wanted to see the old City of the Gods crushed.
The Fortune Teller who manipulated Shiro Tagachi into murdering Emperor Angsiyan, the event which damned Shiro and brought about the Jade Wind and the destruction of much of Cantha, was also a demonic agent of Abaddon.
The destruction of the Tomb of the Primeval Kings was caused by Abaddon's power beginning to boil over to the mortal world. This also caused the various Chaos Rifts that appeared in different parts of Tyria, Cantha and Elona such as the rifts that appeared during the Dragon Festival 2006.
