Description
As the spearmarshal of the Sunspears, Kormir was legendary, and her place as the head of the Order was assured. Despite her personal victories, she was deeply concerned with training new recruits. Kormir has trained more Sunspears than any historian can recall. She wass experienced, educated, fearless, and highly skilled. A calm, capable, and inspiring soldier, she did more than maintain the foundation of the Order—she strove to become the embodiment of a great Paragon. She was proud of her achievements, and each victory moved her one step closer to securing her legacy. Many believed the organization would have failed without her. This sentiment is not lost on Kormir. Each time she receives such extraordinary praise, she’s compelled to work even harder training the next generation of Elonian heroes.
Goddess of Truth
The Goddess of Truth is the immortal incarnation of Kormir, the former Spearmarshal of the Order of the Sunspears. After having defeated the fallen god Abaddon, Kormir absorbed the divine power that was released, and thereby became an immortal god herself, taking over from Abaddon the powers of the God of Knowledge and Truth.
This inscription can be found on the Statue of the Goddess of Truth in the Chantry of Secrets:
|
And so it came to pass that Spearmarshal Kormir, hero of all Elona, was pulled into the inky blackness surrounding the God of Secrets. And though her sight had been robbed, her body wracked, and her spirit flayed, she remained resolute. And so was she joined within the Realm of Torment by fearless allies, and other great heroes, who stood at her side as she sought to thwart Nightfall. Together did they battle through Fear, and Anguish, and Madness, until at last they stood before the face of the imprisoned god; he who had challenged the Five and lost; he who threatened to break the chains placed upon him by the other gods; he who now sought to bring Nightfall to the world: the dark god, Abaddon. And so did Kormir and her allies engage the dark god in titanic battle. And through her power, and their combined skill and bravery, and the blessings of the Five True Gods, did Abaddon at last face his ultimate defeat. Yet the power of a god cannot be destroyed, and Kormir, making a choice that only a mortal could make, did take upon herself the mantle of the Goddess of Truth, with all its power and responsibility, all its dominion and duties. And so by mortal hands did a new immortal enter creation. -- Scriptures of Kormir, 1075 AE |
Statues
Statues of the Goddess of Truth can be found in the Throne of Secrets and in the Chantry of Secrets. Kneeling at the statue in the Throne of Secrets summons the Avatar of Kormir, while kneeling at the statue in the Chantry of Secrets summons the Seer of Truth, regardless of who has Favor of the Gods. The appearance of the statues is also unaffected by favor.

Dialogue
During quest Sunspears in Kryta in Lion's Gate and during quest Sunspears in Cantha in Bejunkan Pier:
- "I am Kormir, spearmarshal of the Sunspears... those sworn to defend the lands of Elona. Darkness has befallen our lands. I have traveled to the Battle Isles and have now come to Tyria to search for heroes willing to fight this evil and help bring peace to the lands of Elona."
On other locations:
- "The journey of life is best taken with good company."
During primary quests Trial by Fire and The Time is Nigh:
- "The Sunspears will not stand idle while Varesh Ossa harms Elona!"
During the Pogahn Passage mission:
- "Do with me what you will, Kournan. You will never break my resolve!"
When spoken to in the Throne of Secrets:
- "Ahai, my friend. Life brings us many twists. My new station has not blinded me. My eyes have adjusted to the darkness between the stars. I sense celestial movement beyond comprehension.... Without you, none of this would be possible. You will forever be my chosen ones. If you have need of me, come to the Chantry of Secrets and kneel before my statue. I will always listen."
Notes
- Although she accompanies your party on several quests and missions, she only actually fights in the Jokanur Diggings mission. In all the other quests and missions, she simply follows you around. This could be explained, however, as her eyes are eaten by a demon during her captivity, and she could not safely throw a spear.
