I hope we actually get a new city

We won't.

Another city, something like Menaphos or Prif is a massive undertaking and, frankly, there's not really space for such a thing in the game right now (it would need a purpose and that purpose has already been claimed by the other cities).

This will be a quest. It'll be an interesting quest with lots to learn, but no, it won't be a whole new city.

Who gave you my quest pitch? :P

I think uncovering and rebuilding a 'buried' city could be awesome (even potentially another 'World Event' level thing).

With Archaeology around the corner and Senntisten in ruins (presumably?), rebuilding the city could easily be a long-term event kind of thing (without MTX of course).

Having the event take a while would also give you guys time to develop the actual final touches to it - and considering the only real 'undercities' we have are Keldagrim and Dorgesh-Kaan (off the top of my head), it would be nice to have a third, more graphically updated, city.

As a possible future piece of content, sure, it's a good suggestion. But a new city is MASSIVE undertaking (we're talking the 6 month minimum approach) and unless it has a REALLY solid purpose it's not really the best use of that time when we could provide lots of other content instead.

Certainly it's something to suggest and something we'll consider for the future, but in the context of this quest it's just not feasible.

What about the rising of the underwater city that has been prophesied?

Maybe at some point in the future we'll add another city. But it won't be as part of this quest.
