source of info?
I don't recall this bit in the game, what's the source in-game for this information on the druids? "They were once humans so deeply into nature, that they gave up their own bodies and "transcended" to being ethereal beings in order to be one with nature" I know one of the quests mention that they gave up their mortal bodies, but I didn't think it mentioned them once being human. --Barek 05:53, 26 March 2006 (CST)

Source of information
One quotation from the Avatar of Dwayna in Druid's Overlook goes like such:

''Child, Dwayna senses within you the impatience that all too often plagues the mortal mind. She now offers you an opportunity to glimpse a deeper serenity to which you may aspire. The druids of Maguuma, holy beings who surrendered their mortal flesh to become one with the jungle, will soon gather benwath a waterfall not far from here. Search through the Sage Lands for their meeting place and await them there.''

I believe one maguuma npc speaks of this as well, even using the term "transcend". I'll look into this.
 * That doesn't mean they were once human. It just means they once possesses mortal flesh.  The Dwarves, the Dredge, the Centaurs, are all creatures who possess mortal flesh, not just Humans. -SolaPan 09:11, 26 March 2006 (CST)

If you look at the Guild Wars Manuscripts (the manual that came with Guild Wars), and turn to page 67, it speaks of the druids in the first paragraph.

Years ago, many tribes of human druids lived among the Maguuma's lush greenery and wildlife. -Ordin
