Perhaps Next Patch Will be More Exciting than Original Release Page Implied....

At first glance the release page for the Queen's Speech patch made the patch seem like it may be a bit boring. But since the original page was released there have been a few hints from Anet that this update may actually be fairly exciting as far as living story content goes. 

For anyone who hasn't seen the "hints": 

first a blogger from GW2 Guru was sent the following from Anet

and recently the release page for the Queen's Speech has been "vandalized" 

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/releases/august-20-2013/

Seems like the next update may turn out to be pretty interesting story-wise

*Edit: for anyone confused by the reference to "Scarlet" from the first link, she was mentioned as someone who was higher up than Mai Trin (the Aetherblade Dungeon boss) among the Aetherblades, and is potentially their leader. 

Yes, it all seems very interesting! Can't wait for it to come out.

Yeah, someone from ANet (I forget who at the moment) said that this update would tie up lose ends from the living story over the last year and set the stage for basically the next year's worth of living story. He made it sound like this is going to be a fairly important living story, so they are just being hush hush about its content to not spoil things.

If you haven't seen this video from Woodenpotatoes yet it is well worth a look. Pure speculation but he has a lot of insight into the current lore and possibilities. I may regret voting for Kiel.

I've seen the WoodenPotatoes video too, and I agree. Very interesting theory especially at the end where he mentions the Asuran personal story events and how they may tie in. Hoping we do get an answer for all the loose ends they've left in the storyline so far :)
