I thought to myself , how many people has our player character actually lost in comparison to Braham ? How dare he lecture us about something we have already experienced multiple times across both the Personal Story , Living world and HoT . Death is a recurring theme throughout the game , ANet has never shied away from taking characters in and out of our gameplay . Well , he lost his mother , who probably meant him something , unlike any of the deceased characters of the whole GW 2 storyline to me . They are usually badly written , annoying , or simply meh . Heck , I was actually relieved when that mary sue plant jesus Trehearne was finished . There are only three characters in the whole storyline who entertain me Rythlock , Taimi , and Aurene . Let ' s make it four , Lazarus is interesting and sounds cool too , I ' m actually curious about what plans ANet has for him .
