Looks like Garai shares some history with Earth:

What could it mean? :o

I assume you mean the Hieroglyphs or the Colosseum kind of structure?

The artist who drew this could of been influenced by them  :blink:

 

I am curious where did you get the name for this area/concept art, I know there's pictures on the Eldevin main website but I didn't think they were named?

It's made by PhurieDae as well as other Lost City of Garai art. ;)

 

For example:

But I must say I prefer Exarch Tiaund's Mausoleum a little more. B)

Not the Hieroglyphs alone, but the representation of Anubis, Aten, and something that has the appearance of Bastet but with the disc of Ra or Tefnut. Anubis is more predominent sharing pixels with Aten on the rise to the throne pictured in the image I posted.

 

As mentioned by Savanc, there are various references around, some more obvious than others. Here is another:

And yes it could be artistic influence, or it could turn out to be part of Eldevin Lore.

A little bit of both :) It was Destroyer, our former quest writer, who came up with the idea of an ancient city with an ancient Egyptian feel, and I took his ideas, the particular lore he had written for Garai and mixed it all up. Then L3fty took the concepts'and made all the awesome assets you see here plus more.  So we've basically taken the style and feel of ancient Egypt but worked it around Eldevin's own history and mythology.

This guy, for example, isn't anyone you'd already know from the history books.  Hm, is that disc on his head a sun, or a Sphere...? ;)
