    Hiya Folks! Sorry this one took too long. This covers the majority of the music used in the background of the 8.2 content videos. Spent the last 2 weeks or so digging around for the proper artwork to go with the music to no avail. Until a friend sent me this beauty of artwork. Please check out the links for the artists’ page along with their video detailing the process they went through in making it. Rather underrated I’d say.

    Still originally thought this music was going to be used in the Azshara ending cinematic, but I guess a lot of things came out different in that one heh! Shame this soundtrack didn’t get a lot of use in the patch in-game. Take care for now!

    Listening to this really wants me to see an expansion where I can go back in time and walk around and observe the ancient Kaldorei Empire.
    Because if we can go back to Draenor again in a different timeline, why not to an alternative Azeroth where the Kaldorei Empire is still alive and remains in its prime.

    This is so beautiful. The music department really did a phoenomenal job of assuring that it gives the feeling of bringing the listener back to a faraway age of Azeroth's history, a time when the Kaldorei empire stretched from shore to shore of Kalimdor. A glory the kaldorei or all elvenkind will likely never know again.
    And the sense of sorrow it brings. All because of Azshara's evil ambitions.

    The music is magic. Again. There is no other franchise where the art teams are so incredibly inspired like in Warcraft. The actors too. They keep on delivering year after year countless hours of music, imagery, stories, characters. Don't forget though, Azshara is no fallen angel - she had always been a selfish tyrant who kept on selling her people again and again to fuel ambitions.

But I am truly captivated so far with all the music they have been putting out. This was a great piece.. I hope they add more vocal choir into the future pieces. Nightsong and Invincible were such great pieces.

      @Aussielight 5 років тому +7

      Hypegreene05 It was never her intent to have her empire destroyed or flooded. Her original goal was to have the Legion purify the other races that refused to bend the knee to her will. And then for her and her people to be elevated to the highest power.
      The Magics of the well caused it to become unstable, and when the portal to the twisting nether was reversed, it caused the plates of the World to be collapsed and shifted, causing the middle of Grand Kalimdor to buckle and the oceans from the outside seas as well as the waters from the Well as it was exploding to pour & flood their kingdoms from both ends. The catastrophe caused violent storms, rippling Magics and elements to rage out of control.
      Azshara May have been vain and egotistical but she loved her people, which I believe is part of the reason why she upgraded the bargain with N’Zoth “My people come with me, or you can forget it.”
      It appears N’Zoth didn’t (or wasn’t able to) take all of them - including some that were Azshara’s favoured, as you can see their spectral ghosts in the ruins of Zin’Azshari.

    • @Hypegreene05
      @Hypegreene05 5 років тому +9

      @@Aussielight this is all wrong. Azshara wanted the world remade pure and in her image. She didn't care about the other races as they stood no chance against her, she had already conquered the Trolls. She also cared little for her own people outside of the Highborne.
      When The demons started attacking the Elves, they fled to Zin Azshari. When they got to the palace gates the Elves were met by doomguards that slaughtered EVERYONE while the her guards looked down and did nothing. They destroyed most of Suramar too. She knew about all of it and not only did she not care, because she thought it was just part of the process to purify the world, but she did nothing.
      She knew her people were dying and were fighting for their survival and she tried to end the rebellion by ordering the death of Lord Ravencrest, one of her lost loyal supporters. She also knew that they were still loyal to her. The army blamed the Highborne and thought they had taken Azshara captive and had unleashed the legion, but infact it was Azshara herself. She didn't care that they were fighting for their lives or that they were coming to save her, she only cared that they were standing in her way. She cared about no one but the Highborne. So there deathe meant nothing to her
      So yeah the destruction of the well caused the sundering but she is directly responsible!

    Every soul of the ancient world
    More admired that you would know and even more missed as their everlasting light turned to eternal darkness
    Be they servant or mage
    Each follow their own path forged by you
    Run by a figure destined to be that of legend
    The world now in peril
    He wakes from darkest depths of the void
    Envious of those that rule in what is in his eyes, his rightful rule
    Endless dreams collide in wonderous visions
    Married to her insanity and lust for power
    Perversion of what could have been but did not come to reality
    In this those that remain from days of yore mournfully recount standing at the event horizon of a legion of hungering evil
    Rest now, released from a tormenting curse
    Every queen must eventually relinquish their title, for no one can truly rule forevermore.
