Might as well publically see how off I was.
My travels in search of the truth
1 She stands watch over the dead that walk.
City of the Sun God, Nefertari
rationale: looks out over the filth infected orochi, sentinel - watches over
2. Where both Charlene and a wise monarch met their demise.
Savage Coast, Solomon's End
rationale: Strange Boathouse in the Mist, final corpse that is impaled is staff member Charlene, King Solomon
3. Ahab stands, searching for his prey.
Blue Mountain Whale Watching
4. Water drips and a poet sits.
Shadowy Forest, Mosul bridge
rationale: Mosul isn't a poet per say but he's the only one I could think of that is sitting near water
5. A place of death points the way to life.
Scorched Desert, entrance to the Ankh
rationale: a real stretch as the Ankh is the symbol of life but is the filth infected valley a place of death and nothing is pointed to
6. Sailors, cover your ears!
Kingsmouth, The Lady Margaret
7. The brightest little bear shows the way.
Carpathian Fangs, Chair with Teddy (cutscene only)
My biggest reach because I genuinely had no idea.
8. Cherry blossom falls, and a young woman lies.
Kaidan, Downtown Cemetary
rationale: cherry tree, pretty sure there was some quest here where you find a womans spirit
9 A fallen star rests here.
Besieged Farmlands, Entrance to The Facility
rationale: the fallen (to the filth) star subject of the red hand project resides in the complex, dungeon mission title From the Valley to the Stars
