Still sad that Guardian tmog set didn't come with Medivh's swanky shoulder pads as well. 😂
Is Med'an returning as well?! Please........just say NO!!!
man that old warcraft cutscene with him in it, is so ethereal

Anal! Until next time, friends!
On a side note...a good quality of life addition would be a Library tab to our Collections page so we can keep and re-read every Book, Letter, Note, Missive etc that we have ever gotten by quest/happenstance/whatever.
This would be amazing
Well good news for you - if you're not already aware of an addon called "Lorekeeper" I came across it recently and it does just that. I'm not entirely sure what it doesn't save but any books or notes you interact with will be logged in it. It's essentially a dream come true for a lore nut such as myself :)
Could Khadgar see the hidden areas of Azeroth that we haven't seen yet? Could he see the future expansions? Can Khadgar see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
Yes he can . He also see what the secret ingredient in Cinnamon Toast Crunch that is so addicting.
Crack...Its Crack@@killsomethin
Yeah, but he's not going to tell us. He'll just promise we'll see it eventually and then have one of his servants lead us around until we give up.
It's so amusing how this whole ass continents are hidden when they have in universe flights and even were able to see the planet from space. Also space travelers (drenai) could definitely have something on their spaceships to scan the surface of unknown planet to map in out roughly. Yet since burning crusade it's "new hidden continent" one after another.
We get to the next continent and all the NPCs are like "What sword?" @@rumotu
For those that are a little confused why Kharazan is so intertwined with all this cosmic stuff, know that the Ivory Tower (the original name of Medivh’s tower) was built upon a huge nexus of magical ley lines. Ley lines are direct conduits of magical energy, and naturally flow through Azeroth and convene at certain places. Dalaran has always been built upon a nexus of ley lines, even when it was located to Northrend, it floated above one.
They keep talking about a "soft revamp" of Azeroth... Imagine that village outside Kharazan rebuilt, inhabited by Kirin Tor, Ethereals, Dragons, Dracthyr, Void Elves, Warlocks, local Forsaken... a proper magic centric settlement focused on wide ranging issues like research, guarding the Dark Portal in place of Netherguard Keep, maintaining leylines, cleansing Duskwood, etc etc... sort of a mini, more diverse Dalaran. Would be a great alternative to trying to always cram everything into the two capital cities.
A new major City, or at least a main hub for a potential old world overhaul perhaps?
Medhiv has always been the story I wanted more of.
This all reminds me of one of Il'gynoth whispers: ''The lord of ravens will turn the key.'' Or maybe that is a stretch? Who knows!
I don't know why, I cried when you talked about Khadgar dying and having his last moments next to Medivh while defending Azeroth.
Medivh is probably one of my favorite characters, The Last Guardian is probably my favorite book about Warcraft lore, I wish that he'll come back and just be a giga overpowered old grumpy wizard, destroying everything with the flick of a finger...
Like c'mon man, even his title is cool, he's the Last Guardian, his mother was the coolest mother in all wow lore, what else could we wish for, just bring him back.
He's tied to Thrall (which wee know will come back, hi Metzen), to Malfurion (which took the place of Ysera for... nothing ?) & Tyrande, Khadgar obviously who needs to die since he announced it and Jaina who's close to Anduin who needs to come back at some point.
ALSO, he knows Alleria and Turalyon.. So everything is linked !
Honestly if the next expansion does have medivh he has to be in the forefront of the cinematic that'll come out at blizzcon 100%, that would be an incredible moment
Turns out we can't handle Iridikron, so we need someone even stronger to go all Medivh-al on him.
RIP Michael Gambon
The Cosmic Wanderer sounds like a Naaru. With as many void story hints as we have been getting, I'm surprised we haven't heard more from the Light.
Medhive will come back and go
"You haven't killed any of the old gods while i was gone, right? That would be really bad.
And please tell me there is still a Lich King.
And whatever you do, do NOT enter the Shadowlands and DO NOT trust the one they call Primus !"
..Ummm...What if we did ALL of that?
Medivh: "... Well, we're fucked."
"Oh god, and now the Void ITSELF is coming!"
Players: "Void? Like... the Old Gods... on perhaps the other planets?"
Medivh: "No no no, the beings I'm talking about are things FAR worse than the Old Gods... no... I'm talking about something far more primal."
"... God damnit it, this must've been what Zo'vaal was talking about, when he said something was coming for this world!"
Didn't medivh show up in legion, long after we killed most of the old gods and replaced Arthas with bolivar?
@@TheoRae8289yes

“Mother Moon called me here..” *bouncy bouncy boing boing*
THIS is some of that "cool sh*t" that's missing from DF. Awesome video. Got me hyped for the future of WoW. 👍
It helps that he seems so genuinely excited for it. It's contagious
What if they’re not planets but realms tethered to Azeroth? The Emerald Dream, the Elemental Plane, the Shadowlands, etc..
Perhaps Medivh knows what Zovaal knows. Whether 'what's coming' is an interplane war or an external threat, that's for Bliz to figure out. Just hope they find someone who can handle it properly unlike how they handled Shadowlands.
lets just hope its some mutated gnoll lord having a go at the world. sick and tired of cosmic wars and apocalyptic narratives.. its gotten old.
@@helvette I believe the mutated gnoll lord is called 'Danuser'.
@@helvette plottwist, Hogger is behind everything because he wants revenge
Medhiv is by far my favorite character in all of the WoW lore. It would be so dope if he was a central figure in the next expansion. Great video!
Of course he will. Medivh is classified as a perpetual. He was never intended to stay dead long-term.
Karazhan always was and still is one of the most interesting things on old azeroth. Great to utilise it more of they can.
Back before WoD, while the WoW forums had a fan fiction section, I wrote a short story about Karazhan being the Chronal Spire from the WoD alpha map, and said that an arcane time explosion sent it tumbling through the timeways to crash into Azeroth in the ancient past, explaining the Deadwind Pass explosion and the fact no one knows who built it
Still wish that was right
it makes sense since chris metzen is back on WoW that he'll return to his original vision, which would entail the OG WC2/WC3 characters.
Obviously very late reply, but Metzen once said (this was like a decade ago, maybe around WotLK or TBC) that he felt Medivh's story was over and he thought it would be cheap if they brought him back again.
OK guys I know all of these are speculation and sounds cool and Spectalite, but don't hold your breath and don't forget we are talking about Blizzard, they are always find a way to fucked up and after that retconned it.
Also in Karazhan is proof the Titans were erasing evidence of their history. One of the notes you pick up. It is the only one that references the Titans, but it disintegrates in your hands.
I see it in front of me:
A black screen with Khadgar’s voicing fades in into a raven flying over the Eastern Kingdoms… Khadgar speaking epically of a ”you”-character and other unknown mysteries.
The raven then closes in on Karazhan, finally landing next to a lower body we all emediately recognize… Khadgar’s.
The raven then transforms into ”human form”, and there he is. Medivh..
Amazing video, as always! I really appreciate all the time and research you put into these videos!!!
Same here❤
Well Mr. Bellular.. you are a wordsmith.. got me hyped up.. and I will shell out the extra shellings to even get the pre order for such an expansion..
A side note.. you seemed truly passionate about the content after really long time...
at this point if we are gonna be traveling the stars I wouldn't be surprised if we run into the protos fleet. Do any of those planets resemble planets from StarCraft?
A little fuel to the fire that Trolls are pre-titan. In Ulduar, if my memory serves me right, when you to Algalon there are multiple races in star holograms lining the way. There is no Troll statue.
I really do hope they drop the "Titans bad" stuff, it feels like a sour and tired cliche at this point that the cosmic entities are ALL selfish and bad and we're our own scars etc etc. The Titans have shown little to no reason to be malicious to us and every other cosmic force seems to want to enslave people.
I just think that recycling all of these DEAD characters makes DEATH worthless in Warcraft. No stakes. No thrill.
“For instance, last week I had these tackos.” 🤣
Great video mate! Karazhan as a gateway hub sounds brilliant.
I think Blizzard has forgotten most of these items , and they are like " Hey , this dude found something ... write this down " 😅
They are new
After the announcement that Lord Metzen has returned, I really hope Blizz yeets Danuser off Medivh's tower.
Him kicking down out door and just teleporting us out makes me chuckle and makes me want housing haha
Medihv was the reason I went mage when I started playing World of Warcraft. That, and the mage in the OG cinematic.
Medivh always shows up when shit's fucked, and shit is perpetually fucked, so he'll always be around somewhere.
"My work is done here; my planet needs meeeee...
Hold on, this is my planet."
Very cool video, there is something about like Warcraft and Starcraft lore that shares DNA obviously as been written by ye Blizzard of Olde. While both split into different IP there are some concepts that just feel eerily similar. Chalk it up to a converge evolution of ideas but with Metzan back perhaps see if these entanglements play out more. The idea of Void, and creatures that return to it after a set back, like Amon, Narud and co. echo the machinations of the Legion. Medivh is one of the characters that could bridge the grounded warcraft lore into the cosmic scale that shadowlands attempted. I just wonder if we zoom out enough maybe one of those infested planets isnt old god but zerg.
gods, please let this be spot on or damn close.
Damn man - that was awesome. I really think Blizz should hire you to work with Metzen to finally fix the quagmire that is current wow lore and move it forward. That said....I have ZERO faith anything as cool as what you hypothesize will materialize. Sadly whoever puts these "easter eggs" in rarely gets to capitalize on them. Often another "forgotten thread". Hope I'm wrong but as one of the few remaining "vanilla" players left, something this good would shock me. Love your videos and the time you put in to this! Sixxkill
its kinda impressing that you can make interesting lore videos even in this very boring wow times
16:18
Player: Finally some time to sleep
Khadgar: CHAMPION WE HAVE A JOB TO DO!
Player: GOD DAMN IT KHADGAR!
The new Xpac may start like Warcraft III, with Medivh appearing to Thrall in a dream. Which would be a cool trailer drop or intro for the announcement of new xpac at Blizzcon.
I always liked Medivh too, fun fact for Bellular fans. His voice actor is the same as Raziel from Legacy of Kain, his name is... Michael Bell.
Those text greys may have just been hinting at zanadalari and BFA.
Seeing Medhiv again would be really cool, but I think WoW should take a break from the "Next Biggest Threat" that they do for every expansion. Rather, they should build upon the world and make Azeroth relevant again. For example... instead of Exile's Reach and then defaulting to BFA, we can start in our racial starting zones and then level through a reworked Azeroth (Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor). For the higher level to end content, it should still be in Azeroth. Such as a Return of the Defias, Rebuilding Night Elven society, or Retaking Gilneas, etc. It can be a plethora of storylines in regards to what has been happening behind the scenes as the past expansions have been taking us away from the old world. Rather than the "next biggest threat," it can be us coming back to help rebuild and restore order. For example, the remnants of the Defias could have gone into hiding and worked their way up into the upper echelons and aristocracy of Stormwind. Then when all the chaos happens that brought us away from the old world, the Defias could use the opportunity to take advantage of a weakened Stormwind to incite rebellion or start a revolution.
Also, I would be personally happy if WoW added a Holy-based priest dps spec and a caster Necromancer class. AND... stop referring to us as "Champion." As you're leveling, you can be referred to as "stranger" or "adventurer". Maybe, if they still wanted to, you can be referred to as "friend" or some other title instead towards the end-game. As long it's earned.
can we just get back to the Horde being the bad guys, and the Alliance being the good guys?
I second this notion
Primal Trolls could be things almost like Jin Rohk but greater, something beyond our normal understanding of trolls
The Guardians of Tirisfal and watever they all had going on is a good branch of wow lore that remains pretty mysterious and dynamic
“The loudest, most desperate she’s ever sounded… (hop hop)”😂😂
Blizzard should hire you to pitch expansions! For real! That scenario in the end sounds awesome! I havent played retail sens legion but i would make a return for THAT expansion!
I hope we see the inbetween between troll and nelf. The Trelf. Would be pretty cool.
"Somehow Palpatine returned"
What if... whatever he's trying to push back gets through. We abandon the Eastern kingdoms and need to retake it throughout the expansion. We build new settlements as we go (incorporate garrisons - but only from a "city rebuilding" point of view) and archeology becomes relevant with whatever pushed through is trying to dig up some old Long lost items from pre ordering days.
Would be interesting if we actually then fail to retake the Eastern kingdoms and end up actually losing kalimdor. Thus, needing us to seek shelter and "gather the troops on the other side of azeroth.
It would be cool if in a Void expansion we see faction wars begin again. Though not Horde vs Alliance but Light vs Void: We enter through a portal in Karazhan and through some intro quests we are given the choice of joining a Light faction or a Void one. That way we can go back to older Warcraft with strife happening but do not have to return to the tired faction war of old. I feel line it coukd be an easy win-win.
epic cinimatic battle between Medivh(w/ Khadgar maybe) & Azshara. with Azshara's new found magic from the void she overpowers Medivh & he leaves us with one truly final prophecy... True Void is coming!!!
You... basically just described "Legion except it's Purple this time" ._.
with 11.0 being datamined now i wonder how all this will come into play
So much amazing potential… I wonder how Blizzard are going to f*** it up this?
Just one word for you Bellular : FANTASTIC , I'm gonna sleep really well thinking about Medivh !!! That should be so great , that story for 11.0 !!!!
Honestly, I agree. Im cool with a void expac if Medhiv is the main person we interact with. I want to hear all of his stories.
There's massive potential in exloring Medivh. Then again, there was a lot of potential in exploring the afterlife and rebirth alongside dragons. I personally really appreciate Medivh and his involvement across Warcraft, I just hope it's presented in a way that doesn't compromise his character the way Malfurion was.
I like this spree of videos imagining good wow arcs from bellular
An'shuul, the Cosmic Wandere is that space serpent eating planets.
I am a simple man, I see someone use the Tim Curry "Space" clip, I hit like. Great video, you hilarious madlad.
So if Medivh is coming back and the Void is our endgame. Is there a chance to get Med'an back in Warcraft? Med'an is broken af but who cares? The Void is broken af too. Damn, that would be a nice visual to see Medivh, Garona and Med'an together!
Lets hope blizz does not turn him into 100 anima
I lold
I wanna see expansions where we don’t always beat the big bad, more just survive them or fend them off only to return to it, how legion felt tied to TBC
I wonder if Medivh's return will mean Khadgar's tragic end. Blizzard might end up sending him out like they did Varian...:c
your outro music is perfect and so cozy
which zone was this music from? god damn, Vanilla's ambient music was literally flawless, its so relaxing in such a simple yet other worldly way, it legit made Warcraft feel like an alien magical universe
its from winterspring!
@@Flowo thanks my dear nigga
So Medhiv reuturns? Okay, but Michael Bell return to the mic? Cause Bell is up in age and I didn't think he would have it in him.
Medivh pulled me in to the warcraft story the second I saw him in WC3
4:28 what about the drogbar? they look like trolls, only more beefy, made or rock, and tusked of course. With how Dargrul's head dress looks tribal, so too the trolls wear similar items
Honestly there are to many directions wow could go, with void, scarletts, pirates, old gods, more titans, legions or something new, all I care about is, will it be better than BFA and Shadowlands.
Honestly, I know I'm not alone but Medivh is my favourite character in all of Warcraft.
I hope Patrick Stewart voices Mediv!
they could make karazan the quest hub and from different parts we go to different places to kick void butt.
How many times we can bring back dead characters? Yes.
Video idea: Make a list of the correct way to experience the entire Warcraft story including all important comics, books, and other games in the Warcraft universe.
I don't want him back ... not because I don't like him or want to see what he can do, its because the current writers... they fucked up enough characters... we don't need another depressed old man crying because his past mistakes...
This was a really fun video. More of this please.
You know that bright red star that showed up a few expansions ago? Money is thats anshu
I always assumed Drogbar were Primal Trolls
Can't wait for Taliesin to put together his own, separate, legit video about Medivh and then call out Bellular for 'stealing his ideas.' :^)
(No shade, just poking fun, I watch and like both.)
I thought Trolls were before night elves? Wouldn't it already be a given that they were here before?
Medivh based expansion might be the one thing that would make me look in the WoW direction again.
"The lord of ravens shall turn the key"
at this point, Red Alert 3's ridiculous story is more interesting than Retail's story
Watching now this video at door of War Whitin and knowledge of Kadghar being missing we can expect Medivh at end of War Whitin.
So space pirates is the next expansion
Not gonna lie, this could all be cool
But id give that up to have Garrosh back in his full fury leading the horde.
Considering Wizard isn't really a class, this title may be true. Then again, if I call myself a Choadinger, and then proclaim to be the Greatest Choadinger, who can dispute that?
How do I access that room in Karazhan with all the orbiting planets. It looks like where the wyrm is when we are tiny but there are no planets there in that instance.
once you delt with the mana worm boss you gorw back to your original size and you can just wonder around in the libary and there is a circelign strais that leads you up where the planets are.
@@ThorSonOfOdin85 Cheers man.I appreciate the update on this. I had completely forgotten their was another level in that room.
Don't forget the visions of the future and past that Khadgar experienced while apprenticed to Medivh. Karazhan having a connection to time is already confirmed!
The fight against sarkareth literally has him call down a blue star shooting us. Thats anshull. Thats what thr trinket does as well.
Medivh is hype, but senseless rehashing is not.
I mean... I don't trust new blizz with the complexity of the Guardian
I fucking love Medivh. My favourite WoW character.
Michael Bell speculates about Medivh, who is voiced by Michael Bell.
They did it to make money, Blizzard has some of the worst story telling that is borrowed from WarHammer.
