{{section-stub|personal story|a guide on where the npcs are would be good}}

You must gain experience in any [[Heart of Thorns]] area and put two Mastery points into Gliding.

[[The Silverwastes]] and [[Dry Top]] are the first two areas that you can enter (either through Story Completion or walking through a portal).

A portal to [[The Silverwastes]] is accessible from [[Brisban Wildlands]] in the northwest. The portal to [[Dry Top]] is located in the southwest of [[Brisban Wildlands]].

Alternatively, you can ask someone to go to any other [[Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns]] area and use a [[Teleport to Friend]] item. Once there, you can also gain experience that will count when training [[Glider Basics]].

== NPCs ==
;Allies
* [[Ensign Wilton]]
* [[Pact Scout]]
* [[Pale Reaver Scout]]

== Dialogue ==
Speaking with the Pale Reaver Scout:
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': Glad you're here, Commander. The Pact still needs your help…especially with all the distrust being aimed at sylvari.
:'''<Character name>''': I'll do what I can, but I've got to find Destiny's Edge and Trahearne. Mordrem took them all prisoner.
:'''<Character name>''': They could be anywhere. I need to know where they were taken, or at least find someone who knows the lay of the land.
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': I've seen Mordrem force-marching high-value prisoners west, deeper into the jungle. It's not much, but it's a start.
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': As for knowledge of the terrain… If you head north, you'll also run into a village of local hylek called "[[Itzel]]."
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': They're fast and agile, and they know how to get around. With their help, your search will go a lot faster.
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': But the first thing I'd do is check in at the large Pact camp to the west. The people there should know more.
:'''Pale Reaver Scout''': Oh, and keep that glider handy. Navigating the jungle is dangerous: one wrong step around here can be fatal.

Speaking with Ensign Wilton:
:'''Ensign Wilton''': How can I help you, Commander?
:'''<Character name>''': Marshal Trahearne and Destiny's Edge were taken prisoner. I'm trying to track them down. Do you know anything?
:'''Ensign Wilton''': I haven't seen them… Except for Caithe. She wasn't on board the fleet when it launched, but she's definitely here.
:'''<Character name>''': Caithe's here? When did you see her? Where did she go?
:'''Ensign Wilton''': She came through a few hours ago, heading west. She was trying to keep a low profile, but I spotted her.
:'''<Character name>''': Was she wearing a large backpack?
:'''Ensign Wilton''': I think so. I only caught a glimpse… You of all people know how stealthy she can be. What was in the backpack?
:'''<Character name>''': Something important to me. And when I catch up to her, I'm going to take it back. Thanks very much.
:'''Ensign Wilton''': Good luck. Ask around before you leave—a lot of these soldiers have seen things I haven't. Things that could be useful.

Speaking with the human Pact scout for additional information:
:If sylvari:
::'''Pact Scout''': Oh... It's you, "Commander." I'm surprised they let you keep your rank after what happened.
::'''Pact Scout''': Keep moving. Mordremoth's done too much damage already. I don't want you around when it starts pulling your strings.
::'''<Character name>''': You're way out of line, soldier. Respect the chain of command or Mordremoth will be the least of your worries.
::'''Wounded Soldier''': Sorry, Commander.
::'''<Character name>''': Yes. You are. Now fall in, get organized, and do your duty. Mordremoth hit us hard, and we have to hit back.
:If not sylvari:
::'''Pact Scout''': Commander? We need some leadership here. When are we withdrawing?
::'''<Character name>''': We're not. If we leave now, Mordremoth will have time to produce a horde of minions that's too large to contain.
::'''Pact Scout''': But the fleet's gone. We lost so many soldiers…and the sylvari are all traitors.
::'''<Character name>''': Not all. Listen close, soldier: if we run, Mordremoth will be unstoppable by the time we get where we're going.
::'''<Character name>''': Now fall in, get organized, and do your duty. Mordremoth hit us hard, and we have to hit back.

Speaking with the sylvari Pact scout for additional information:
:If sylvari:
::'''Pact Scout''': I heard you were here, Commander. Welcome to hell.
::'''Pact Scout''': Since the crash, some Pact troops think we're all enemy agents. They mean us harm. It's not safe for us here.
::'''Pact Scout''': But I can't leave… Traversing the jungle without a glider is next to impossible. I'm stuck here with people who hate me.
::'''<Character name>''': I say stick close to other sylvari. If they're loyal, vouch for them; if they falter, stop them from doing any harm.
::'''Pact Scout''': I hope that'll be enough. Have you... been hearing the dragon's voice, too? It hurts... I almost blacked out last time.
::'''<Character name>''': I hear it. We all do. That's why we have to look out for each other.
::'''<Character name>''': I've got to keep moving. Good luck, soldier.
:If not sylvari:
::'''Pact Scout''': I heard you were here, Commander. Welcome to hell.
::'''Pact Scout''': Since the crash, some Pact troops think my people are enemy agents. They mean me harm. It's not safe for me here.
::'''Pact Scout''': But I can't leave… Traversing the jungle without a glider is next to impossible. I'm stuck here with people who hate me.
::'''<Character name>''': I say stick close to other sylvari. If they're loyal, vouch for them; if they falter, stop them from doing any harm.
::'''<Character name>''': I've got to keep moving. Good luck, soldier.

Speaking with the norn Pact scout for additional information:
:'''Pact Scout''': Commander. It's good to see a familiar face.
:'''<Character name>''': I'm heading deeper in to the jungle to find Trahearne and Destiny's Edge. Any advice?
:'''Pact Scout''': Navigation's tough. If you've got ground to cover, it's going to be slow going without the right equipment.
:'''Pact Scout''': Make sure you glider's in working order. And take time to learn all you can about the local mushrooms.
:'''Pact Scout''': One thing I've learned here: when you're in a hurry, gliders and mushrooms turn impassable terrain into shortcuts.

Speaking with the observant Pact Scout:
:'''Pact Scout''': Commander? Glad to have you with us.
:'''<Character name>''': I can't stay. I need to find where the Mordrem take their high-value prisoners.
:'''Pact Scout''': All the prisoner trains I've seen go west. Especially ones with officers and the like.
:'''<Character name>''': What do you know about the Itzel?
:'''Pact Scout''': The treefrogs to the northeast? Not much. They're quick. They move through the canopy like they were born in it.
:'''Pact Scout''': I think they're friendly, but with all the Mordrem activity around here, I'm guessing they have to play it safe.
:'''Pact Scout''': Anyway, you'll need help if you're heading west. Ask the Itzel. They'll know the best way to get where you're going.

== My Story ==
{{Mystory
| text =
I surveyed the area surrounding the fleet wreckage and debriefed several of the Pact survivors. They provided information about where the Mordrem Guard are taking high-value prisoners, and they steered me toward a village of friendly hylek who can aid me in my search for Trahearne and Destiny's Edge.
