Guild Wars 2 – Stoking the Flame

This is the second mission for Charr who chose to have the Sorcerous Shaman as a father. Head on out to the Irondock Shipyard Waypoint. This will put you very close to the start of the next part of the storyline. Head to the North to find the start of the instance.

Once inside the instance head to the Northeast. It will not be long before you find your Sparring partner with some brawlers. Head over to them and have a quick talk. They will ask for orders, you will tell them to move away and hide until you tell them otherwise. It is time to get on the approach to Skulltwister. Continue to the Northeast. Fight through the Marsh Drakes and the Bog Skales. You will eventually find a pile of woods that you can light. Do so to call out Skulltwister:
Aethin Skulltwister: “We've been expecting you, cub. And watching you. Now that you're closer, I sense the family resemblance. Are you a traitor – or a double-traitor like your father? Convince me, cub. Renounce your former legion and swear allegiance to Flame.”
Hero: “Slow down. Forktail said I'd retain my rank. I join as legionnaire, or I don't join at all.”
Aethin: “Not possible. Legionnaire Flarekin leads us, and he wants to know what you know about the Citadel's highest ranking officers. His assassination ritual is ready to burn them alive in front of their own troops. You can help us, or you can burn too. What's it going to be?”
Hero: “If that's all you have for me, it's going to me killing you. Right now.”

it is time to get into another brawl. Not only do you have Aethin Skulltwister but you also have a wall of fire containing the area. This is made harder by the fact there are 5 Bladestorms coming at you as well. Use Area of Effect attacks to start to nail as many of the Bladestorms as you can. The sooner they go down, the better. Skulltwister is not the easiest one to take down either. He is very hardy for a spell caster so expect to work some on him. Still, as soon as he goes, any surviving Bladestorms will drop very quickly. With that, it is time to leave the instance.

Leave the instance and head onto the next mission in the storyline, “A Fork in the Road.”
