Exactly . Call of Cthulu features Cthulu for only like , one page , while the rest of the story is all buildup . Which is perfect . But that doesn ' t stop almost every Lovecraftian fan thing from slapping Cthulu over every God damn thing <| sep |> I agree , good and bad exist . <| sep |> But the Sylvari didn ' t change in their core concept , And neither did the Norn . It ' how someone else previously stated . People are identifying the whole race of Norn based on a single norn character Braham just because he ' s the one in the spotlight . The Norn not having enough lore ? What the . There ' s a huge amount of lore about Norn , not just that it also plays along well with the current story . I still don ' t see how 1 character defines the whole race same as I didn ' t see canach the whole sylvari race or kasmeer and marjory defining humans . The norns are unique . Besides being blunt and direct , they respect nature and the spirits in it . Dare I say they are the race connected most with the nature yes , even compared to the Sylvari . Besides that , they are very spiritual and in general work like a tribe . I never seen them as humans . They are literally completely different which doesn ' t mean there won ' t be aspects that connect the races together not just norn and human , but the other races too . About the memorial yes , no songs . At least not in that specific 10 minutes while we were there . The memorial is an ongoing thing the norn didn ' t drink enough ale to be singing . And while they might not FEAR death , they still morn the dead especially considering this memorial is closer to a funeral . And there ' s enough lore about norn to know how they usually behave . Ties are another thing that go beyond normal behaviour tho . Regardless of the race . Any being will act in a different way once a tie like that gets broken mostly in the begining while they are still sad and the twisterlike emotional state .
