    Azeroth has spent so many years being inundated by every type of power there is... She's going to wind up being influenced by ALL of them, rather than just one of them like each is hoping. We'll have a big amalgamation on our hands.

    After watching all the other explanation videos you have done, actually watching this trimmed version of the lore really brought it all together quite nicely. I'm not sure if thats what you intended or if it was just aimed at non lore buffs but I really liked watching this specifically after watching everything else. I feel super hyped and preped for the story ahead of us, if I feel that way others must as well and thats really good news for the game. Thanks Bellular! :)

      I think in Midnight we might "lose" this time around and she does become a void lord, and then she is the final boss in The Last Titan, and maybe she somehow becomes cleansed of the void and becomes a Titan or we altogether have to start over on a new planet after the final conflict or something along those lines i mnot going to try and flesh them out here. I just have so many theories already buzzing in my head.

    It's the Waking Shores because the *Dragon Isles* are waking up with the return of the flights. S4 is the Awakened season because the Aspects have regained their powers. Like, there could be some duality to S4 heading into TWW, but I think the Waking Shores relating to Azeroth is a stretch.

    I just did the quest line recently to unlock the undead elves from the end of Shadowlands and something struck me. Calia Menethil felt out of place with the forsaken because she was risen by the Light instead of by death magic. To seek answers she goes to meet Margrave Sin'Dane to ask about the nature of undead. Sin'Dane tells Calia, "Be it powered by Light energy or Death energy, necromancy is necromancy and Undead is undead."
    Which got me to thinking about here... Inanis, Xal'Tath's current body, was dead before Xal'Tath took her over. Xal'Tath is now basiclly a consiousness that exists as void energy. So wouldn't that make Inanis undead too? Necromancy is Necromancy... even when powered by void energy, right? If so, could that mean Inanis is still in there and is just being repressed by Xal'Tath and a way to defeat her is through the same means any undead can be defeated? Or if we push the mind of Xal'Tath out, would that mean Inanis will return, now as a void undead?

  • @thunderdrum325
    @thunderdrum325 6 місяців тому +1

    My theory for the giant crystal sun thing in the cave roof that simulates the day cycle is not Sargarus’ sword (like why would it flip like that), but either it’s Azeroth’s physical heart flipping between a void state because of all the void it had been subjugate to for millions of years, or it’s where all those Titan facilities put all that void magic/influence. Like charging a battery.

    It seems interesting. I like Xalatath, but I also hope she doesn't overstay her welcome and they don't try to pull the whole "subordinate usurps the master trope" where she ends up becoming the big bad instead. I feel like by doing so, it would make the Void Lords look like a bunch of pansies, even though they've been hyped up since pretty much the beginning of the game at this point. Although maybe that just comes down to personal preference since I hate that trope.

    Would like to point out that Void's color redeco has kinda been ongoing since Warlords (ish); Ner'zhul's void magic got distinctly darker compared to MoP and Cata stuff, and Legion reinforced and solidifed that darkness sort of color. The blue would be the only difference, but as I recall we can see that in Legion as well.

    "And I know that loads of people probably feel out of the loop". So I played this game from late Vanilla through to early Warlords. I kinda quit then, but came back late Legion. I was in the military at the time so didn't have much time to play, but remember getting to LFR the final raid. And I haven't played the game since. Saw the new expansion cinematic and was like "Huh...this looks cool, but I have no earthly idea what's going on, been playing FFXIV for the last decade. But I AM curious." So yes, I shall be watching this video. :D

    Ok. Azeroth has being infused with Shadow/void by the Old gods in the beginning(evident in the blood being harvested), with Life by Elune and Anr, (evident by the roots), with Death (LichKing and Shadowlands), with Order (Titans stuff everywhere/imprisoned old gods) and Disorder by the Legion.... where is the light infecting of the world soul event? With all this already affecting the "Prime World Soul" what will "awaken" from Azeroth? Is Azeroth the last Titan or is there another Titan left trying to claim Azeroth?

The signal for the Watchers, to open the way for their return.

    After seeing all these videos - I think in the end, we'll have to sort of assemble all of the different magics onto our character - Order, Disorder, Life, Death, Light and Void. Kind of like assembling all of the infinity stones in Marvel comics - and that will probably be the solution to fighting all these other enemies, and why the Burning Legion, The Titans, The Void, Death, Light, and so on were all inimical to Azeroth. They were out of balance. So the solution will be "Rainbow power".

    17:10
    A vision of a falling star: This is the blade of Sargeras descending onto Azeroth
    A flash of light blinded them and then awoke under the surface: This was the blade penetrating Azeroth and sucking them deep with her. Kind of like how a sinking ship creates a vacuum.
    Crystal in the vision: This crystal is the tip of the blade. The crystal like presence is like a cauterization so that Azeroth would not bleed. A protection that formed around the blade tip creating a crystal like view.
    They Reached Kaz Algar about a decade ago but the blinding light. Legion released 8 years ago.
    When Sargeras is reveled from behind the clouds it is a long white light. Like a meteor, Haley's Comet, Falling star...

And somehow, the intent of these places/entities is to serve as evolving stones for our worldsoul eevee, right?

    Another great vid. Just wondering though!, Arathor is thought to be the child of light and void....but what if it was actually referencing Azeroth?
    That world soul looks like an amalgamation of both. Probably wrong as usual, but I think it would be great.

    What sucks about The War within is that atleast a certain point, previous expansion trailers atleast gave an idea what is coming.
    The one thing I can praise the war within, is the warband that is, you may bundle some of your characters to make professions easier. Great, but the war within saids nothing from the start.

    Let's be real, Xal'atath being a corpse only makes her hotter.
    I hope the devs remember why we fell in love with her before she had this face though. In Legion she was charming, hilariously ball-busting, and had a lot of interesting commentary about the world.
    I hope we get to see more of that, more actual story with her, and not just diabolical mustache-twisting evil-doer moments.
    Edit just to add, if there was a book or video, Chronicles/History of Azeroth (as told by Xal'atath), with her laughing it up as she remembers civilizations doing their best and failing - and her part in that - I think you'd see an upsurge in lore nerds

    She was never the Harbinger of Dimensius. You are making a huge jump in lore there. There is literally no in game literature or literature anywhere that indicates this. My theory is Xal'atath is one of the Void Lords, it traveled to Azeroth after implanting the old gods and creating the black empire where she was betrayed by either the old gods working together or another void lord and stuck into the blade. She has been plotting for years to escape and now that she has gathered a bunch of power she wants to corrupt Azeroth and get her revenge on the other void lords.

      @justinb7494 Except it never once says Xal'atath cut him off. Just that he was cut off. Sure, we can assume it is Xal'atath, but I wouldn't put all my eggs in that basket because it doesn't make sense. That implies that Xal'atath is whispering to him at that very moment when it could be some other being inside the staff. Blizzard loves to play the long game. But the whole story makes almost no sense anyway. So who knows.

    Time gating the crafting is the worst idea. They know that but are doing it anyway.
    They're ignoring this so-called *"council"* they claim to listen to, which they formed to do what they are not utilising them for.
    Clearly, they've not learned from their mistakes, which is apparent to anyone since they've sad it so many times there's no way anyone should believe them.
    The crest changes are a strange one since the consensus was that everyone was OK with it.
    There's other things, but the point is, there's going to be so many put off changes that will require more time if they are limited to a couple hours or so a day due to real life commitments, and blizzard can ill afford to alienate certain people, but here we are, seeing it happen.
