I imagined how pissed off Iridikron would be when he finds out that the Dark Heart he gave to Xal'atath back in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is destroyed and that his dreams of Azeroth being freed from the Titans grasp all went up in smoke, I have no doubt in my mind that he'll eventually seek vengeance.

[@Toffeehammer]

Maybe it's just me but I think it's really neat that they made Khadgar look less like your typical old man and more like a young man who just instantly became old. Like he didn't age naturally but had a bunch of decades taken out of him all at once. Because of Medivh this man is like 40 going on 80 and I'm not sure what it is about the way he looks but they managed to capture it really well.

[@TheHeroWTF]

*singing* "I am fourty, going on eighty!"

[@ahmedalarishi6119]

I think he’s a bit older though, the whole dark portal thing was more than 35 years ago without even counting the times skips between each expansion.

[@Megoover]

He was always kinda energetic and goofy, with a little of proper seriousness of an A+ grades student

[@123videos456]

I remember his original character model introduced in TBC, he looked like a gaunt older wizard with a long white beard. When he was re-introduced in WoD, they gave him the Dadghar glow up.

[@emetanti]

By the time of WoD its more that he aged into how he looks.

[@drakecamorra1202]

Well its been a hot minute since I've been emotional over a cinematic xD That damned reunion with khadgar AND saving him with the very light Anduin was running from. Beautiful

[@Athelarius]

My favorite cinematic so far. Emotional, good use of classic themes, cinematography a masterpiece.

[@mrosengren4130]

People have been angry that it has taken Anduin so long to return to the light, that he has not gone to his mentors... and yet? Dude was trapped in the ream of death, twisted and tormented with the same domination magic that warped Arthas. Except that Anduin would have known, would have seen the similarities, thought that this was what had happened to Arthas, and if the Lich King was an unredeemable monster, than so to was he. He has not completely healed, but he is walking the path. Here is hoping they show him stumbling a bit, but still making progress, as mental wounds cut deeper than physical. And Khadgar thought fast and saved himself and in a way that wasn't a total asspull! Because hey, as he said, it was risky and he did end up dying (briefly) regardless. It actually made sense with what we knew of the Dark Heart and his own skill as an archmage.

[@ParrishT3]

Yeah Anduin was forced to take a back seat as he slaughtered everybody and everything in his path and hated the fact that he didn't feel bad about it at the time. For a kid who's sole purpose was to bring in peace to the world it must have been a complete strip down of your person and shattered his essence. That's not something you just walk away from. Thrall was the same way with his elemental issue and having to go through all his struggles with his wife to accept what happened to him and try to fix it.

[@uuamenator]

Hmmm, actually, do you remember what Uther told Arthas before Arthas' pledging to become a paladin? Uther: “You are ready, Arthas. You have proven yourself time and again. You are worthy of the title of paladin. But remember, no one is ever truly ready. No one feels worthy. We do what we must, because it is right.” Maybe Anduin's moment in this vid mirrors that of what Uther said? Before Shadowlands Anduin was completely sure of himself and kind of simply 'inherited' a high position and great power without actually earning any of it, but now, after struggling I believe he will truly become not a priest like his child self, and not a warrior like his father, but an actual Paladin, and I believe that Uther's part about nobody ever truly being ready or feeling worthy, but doing what is right because we must, shows exactly what Anduin was struggling with - after being a perfectionist idealist as a child, he struggled with being flawed and having real struggles with himself, and finally coming to do what is right despite doubts.

[@juliankanzuki2013]

It's nice to see Khadgar and Alleria together like this, they have knowen eachother and faught side by side since warcraft 2, so it makes sense they would be close friends and value eachother this much.

When anduin was giving a heartfelt monologue and a player character peeked their head over the hill I lost it

[@valkyriesardo278]

This misses me on two points. It underplays the moment of Anduin reconnecting with the LIght. They didn't need to turn him into a drama queen for that scene but a bit more glow effect would have better suited the occasion. Alleria got more bang for the buck when she zapped Xalatath's gizmo. The gentle smile he bestowed on Khadgar was a nice touch. Anduin has never been prideful and understatement between old friends speaks volumes. My bigger issue is the insult to Varian's kingship. His sword is not an instrument of evil. He did not kill without purpose. A leader must sometimes choose force when reason and sweet words do not secure the peace. Are we to forget how Varian secured escape for the remnants of his army at the cost of his own life? When Anduin asked "What do I do now?" Varian replied "What a king must do." Anduin is not Varian but he is a king. He can lead without a sword in his hand, but he will need a warrior as his righthand man.

Resurrection is an incredible feat in lore. We do it in gameplay all the time; but lore wise, it takes an incredible tie to the Light to perform. Very rare. Anduin had done it once before with Calia Menethil.

[@lolamagenta]

Khadgar has been one of my favorite characters from WoW for years. His humor is spot-on. His humor is hilarious.

[@Holyn579]

I would've liked if Khadgar came back later in the story, but this is at least good for Anduin's development

[@Athelarius]

Finally Anduin made peace and uses the light again, hope we see him be brave again.

[@MsLola2013]

I'm starting to think... This is a spoiler: the developers said that Xalatat will not die. So she either runs away, becomes a half-ally, or gets locked up. Where was she locked up, oh, in a dagger. Who has that dagger now?

[@elessal]

okay blizzard. we will not burn you to the ground today. just remember, we are still pissed off about Arthas' soul

[@cameronmcewen7192]

The writing for this expansion became like Shadowlands.

[@Ultimaton100]

You do know Arthas was a villain, right? And unlike a few others he never had any noble intentions. Furthermore, Blizzard has reiterated over and over again that every action he took in service to the Scourge and later as the Lich King himself was entirely of his own free will. It was in a way quite fitting that his soul ended up being used as fuel by the very evil he sought to control and exploit for his own ends.

[@lordbored7006]

@@Ultimaton100 he was also a major driving force in wow's popularity since it's inception. To say that his end in the Shadowlands was a *little* insulting would be an understatement

[@Eskimo615]

Dude don't put spoilers in the title wtf.

[@p123qwe]

Plot expanding on Khadgar and Modera.

[@Athelarius]

This 100% yes

[@amplesstratleholm7609]

Anduin just resurrected someone again

[@marcorizzoni9766]

Technically he wasn’t dead yet. Just in cardiac arrest. Anduin healed the wounds and restarted the heart. We can restart hearts too in the emergency rooms of every hospital. It’s only after 5 minutes with no heartbeat that the brain starts to die.

[@thewalrus45]

It was more like he used the Light as a defilibrator here lol, got Khadgars heart going again just after it stopped.

[@marcorizzoni9766]

@@thewalrus45 Fun fact: defibrillators actually aren’t used to restart hearts outside of specific cases (when the stop is caused by fibrillation, and it would be the CPR to do the heavy lifting anyway). As the name says, they are used to… de-fibrillate an heart in fibrillation. Usually it is the CPR or cardiac pacing that restarts the heart in cases of cardiac arrest, but it would sometimes restart in fibrillation, and it has then to be defibrillated (and sometimes, the defibrillator used to stop a fribrillation would end up accidentally stopping the heart, that has then to be restarted).

[@Davidhenry1210]

Also in the lore the res spell is a very rare ability for light users to have.

[@TheWarCouncilTable]

Good thing I went on vacation before finishing the story just to have the title ruin it for me. Good job 👍

[@murrloc1859]

Some characters just hit different

[@samsharp6446]

Can you please put the word spoiled in front of these cinematics? I got a notification on my computer which completely spoiled me as I worked through the campaign . It's a small change that would save many people. Very infuriating to see.

[@junito1957]

THE FACE OF KHADGAR WAS PRICELESS WHEN HE LOOK AT ANDULN WHO JUST BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE SAY THANK YOU

[@Alexander_Fuscinianus]

Ну да, ну да, Артеса они превратили в гребанного светлячка, а Кадгара - неи

[@ricardin2498]

Anduin theme, makes me believe!

[@wynnefox]

Thanks for spoiling he is still alive in the title and thumbnail. I appreciate it. /s

[@dreamhunter1295]

Reminds me of the time when Korialstrasz was prisoned in some type of magical glass. he broke out and freed himself. I love to see this kind of things again

[@yamochanchan]

8:04 A glimpse of the old writing that made Warcraft so good.

[@kotaro07]

AHHH Aduin has obtained the light again!

[@constantinc.2875]

I really would have loved Turalyon see in some more LIGHT BADABOOM Action... he's such a badass Character to me!

[@Rooachie]

Thanks for the spoiler chief. Amazingly done.

[@carburo360]

I am so happy to see Khadgar again.

[@做好坐滿]

i am gtting old. it actually touched me0.0

[@Athelarius]

It touched us all, not matter of age :)

[@TAiiNE]

"Now where did we leave that city, I'll have to get back to you." rofl how fitting. Losing a whole city like one might lose their car keys.

[@wille5080]

Is… is khadgar in a floating arcane wheelchair? 😂

[@BowserisOK]

So lame. He could have used floating spell.

[@theroadie1346]

I knew he wasn’t dead. Khadgar had faith in all of us champions and I never gave up my faith in Khadgar

[@anneu3068]

I just love anduins arc

[@costas_tr]

For the first 3 minutes in the expansion, everybody died xD. It's good that we get a couple of characters make it out alive

[@grovestreet5128]

Chadgar better have a grand death or death by old age because I'll be damned if he's slain by no name void anomaly.

[@philippeblais8594]

4:47 Trinity: what is he doing? Morpheus: He's beginning to believe.

[@Athelarius]

Next scene: Anduin dodges 96,900 bullets with his fingers. Light fade

[@philippeblais8594]

@@Athelarius Either that or he is pulling a mass Rez like he did in the BFA cinematic.

I’m so glad Turalyon didn’t go to the Priory, I don’t think he would’ve ever wanted to leave.

I HATE spoilers, but I had to know. Thank you.
