I don't know. It was during some random Lionheart NPC conversation in Caledon Forest while I was watching TV.
It was like, one of the NPCs (an Asuran) asked who the Tengu are, and then the other NPC (I believe Sylvari, but don't quote me there, it might have been a human) saying that they fled here, then walled themselves off because of the prejudice of other races against them.
If I remember correctly, I read in the GW1 (or maybe 2) wiki that the Inflicted plague ended up getting blamed on the Tengu (Or maybe it was some other catastrophe in Cantha, I'll have to look it up), forcing them to flee from the continent.
Edit: Read a wiki article on them, just to see what I've mis-interpreted.
Quote:The tengu from Cantha were expelled by Emperor Usoku as he removed all non-human races from the land and were the last to leave Cantha - as such, they have the most information on what happened there.So I assume that the Tengu in the Sea of Sorrows are the ones that left Cantha. Would correlate to the stuff I heard from the NPCs.
When the Great Tsunami of Zhaitan's rise occurred, the tengu across the world saw it as a sign to return home and traveled to Tyria, a descendant of Talon Silverwing leading a charge through Zhaitan's risen forces.
After reading up on the article about the Dominion of Winds, it is past the wall attaching to Caledon Forest. Considering that the map marks this area as the Sea of Sorrows, this would lead me to believe that the Dominion of Winds will be part of this update.
