The naga being night elves was revealed in Warcraft 3 iirc. Lady Vashj told Maiev "We were once Night Elves" or something along those lines.

Yes; and Maiev herself comments on the Queen Azhara statue, for which she says looks more like a Naga then Night Elf, she saw and asks "Why would the Naga worship a Night Elf queen?". Still in WC3 it's never explained why or how they became the Naga, it was just said that some magic evolution miracle of sorts happened and so they became Naga, and we were fine with it being a mystery at that time. =)

The War of the Ancients novels, written during Classic and TBC Era WoW, were the first explicit mention that an at the time unnamed Old God tied to the sea was responsible for the Naga. So it definitely seems like the idea of a sea based old god was there from the start

Remember back in the day when we were theorycrafting that the reason Kul Tiras wasn't active in-game was because it was overrun with the Naga, because the naga with their murloc slaves were active all along that the EK coastline? I think it was even speculated about in the old RPG or something.

I didn't think the Naga lore was supposed to be that vague in Vanilla, other than their link to Nzoth. In WC3, Vashj outright spells out their origins. The Murgul workers had tooltips that explain the Naga enslaved these murlocs to work for them. The naga in Northrend who were "melting the polar ice caps" is just the remnants of the Naga forces that Illidan led against the Lich King back in WC3. Illidan uses the same line to describe his task to Malfurion when interrogated by him. Amazing video nonetheless. I love how much work you go through to tie in all these disjointed Vanilla questlines together. It makes your content all the more original and top quality.

There's a few more hints. Blackfathom Deeps links the naga with the corruption of the old gods, not only having crazed murlocs making altars, naga worshipping the pantheon, elementals that serve as embassy from the waterlords to the old gods, but also the twilight hammer's cultists making sacrifices to the creature, Aku'mai, a terrible hydra touched by the old gods able to control other sea creatures, like Gamoora and it's peers. The in game books offer a few more passages of information, though indeed warcraft 3 seems to have the most source of it. There seems to be two factions of naga, moreso. "Wild" Naga and the naga that follow Illidan.

The mention of the Old Gods' prisons reminds me, I was recently musing to myself how it seems like any and every prison in WoW has failed; being destroyed, massively escaped from, overrun by riots, etc. Durnholde, Arcatraz, Tol Barad, the Stockades, and the aforementioned Old Gods' prisons, just to name a few. I haven't played modern WoW since MoP so I know there have to be yet more failed prisons. It'd be interesting to take a look at them all to see what went wrong, and comparatively are there ever any successfully functioning prisons throughout all of WoW?

i know Y'sharaj was briefly mentioned here, but his 'death' was a very impactful decision to imprison old gods instead of removing them or slaying them, if i recall correctly, Y'sharaj caused so much damage to Pandaria, the titans decided to imprison the rest of the old gods perhaps to come up with a better plan to rid the planet of them at a later time, or forever imprison them indefinitely.

Lore about the Naga and their transformation was actually revealed with their introduction in Warcraft IIIx. The Watchers (under Maiev Shadowsong) were the first Kaldorei faction to learn about the Naga when Lady Vashj simply told her about it. Later in the campaign though, Malfurion claims to be ignorant of their origins, so modern knowledge likely originated from the few of Maiev’s soldiers who survived the Night Elf TFT campaign and didn’t follow her to Outland, and from Illidan’s commentary to his brother (“you do not want to know”), it’s likely those soldiers would have been very reluctant and slow to discuss the matter even with their fellows out of disgust.

Being underwater in WoW was a fear that really didn't completely go away. I was always so worried Azshara would come out, or something like that, in Vanilla. I think the only time I ever screamed out loud was swimming into the cave in Vashj'ir with the sub, and the skybox lighting changes inside there so when I saw the sub form I thought it was a creature. I remember how unnerving it was to swim through the fatigue zone to get to the ship for the Baa'l quest. The kraken in BFA was not very kind, either.

5:22 I think it's probably a given if you look at the overall map that this NPC was dropping breadcrumbs to Zoram'gar Strand and Blackfathom Depths. Once again, the poor story-telling in dungeons problem did not allow for them to fully explain this, but it feels common sensical that this NPC is dropping lore meant to be pieced together with and to lead into BFD (which, iirc, was one of the first dungeons finished and one the OG devs had much bigger plans for originally).

In regards to the sundering and how it might have affected the old gods. The old gods are behind deathwings corruption, since they were sealed within the earth and him being the aspect of earth made him a bit more vulnerable to them. Their plan at the time was to allow Sargeras to invade Azeroth, as that would likely have set them free. While they couldn't defeat multiple titans, a single one like Sargeras would have been no problem to them. As such the sundering, while probably still damaging their seals, was not what they wanted.

Hi Jedi! Do we have much information on how old the universe is? Did Azeroth form billions of years in the past, just like Earth? If so, how long has its world soul been slumbering, and how long did the elementals wage war against each other? It's interesting to imagine folks like Ragnaros existing for _billions_ of years, making all the events of the Titans and the First Ones look like an eyeblink's eyeblink. But maybe all that is much more recent. Maybe the planet itself is much more recent too.

@@General12th I disagree. Canon is always backed up by perceived legitimacy among its fanbase. For example, when current owners of LotR make changes or additions to it, nobody takes them seriously, because Tolkien himself didn't write it, and we have a feeling he wouldn't ever write anything like it, and even if he did, it would've been discarded anyway because he must be out of his mind to write something so antithetical to the original spirit of his creation. Even though I suppose it's technically canon, nobody cares, it's illegitimate. Same with any IP.

Now, hear me out here, I've thought on this a lot, and while it is speculation, it might not be that far off, N'Zoth's defeat was anti-climatic because it was planned, by N'Zoth, now hear me out here, N'Zoth wants control over Azeroth, however with the current events going on within WoW Azeroth will be destoyed come the event the Arathi refer to as, Renilash, N'zoth knows this, however N'Zoth also knows that we (the heroes and story characters) would never willingly work with him due to our species natural blind devotion to the light, which is why he embedded pieces of himself in various characters, not all of them aware of it, waiting in dormancy for "the hour of her third death" which will likely happen at the end of TWW and Renilash will begin, unleashing the void upon Azeroth and causing the warriors of light to go into emergency mode From here, "The Golden one will claim a vacant throne", or rather Anduin will step down as leader of the alliance, giving it Turalyon to lead the fight against the Void, however, this is a terrible idea, as Turalyon will lead the battle against the void with his blind devotion to the light, blindly following its orders, not realizing that it currently has the titans preparing to cleanse Azeroth of ALL void corruption, including us, from here N'Zoth will guide us away from this ultimate destuction, revealing that he intends to break the endless cycle, then come the end of Midnight the void lords will have overpowered the titans, however, this too was part of N'Zoths plan, now what is N'Zoths plan you might ask? how does he intend to break the endless cycle? by causing Azeroth to be born in neither the light, nor the voids image, but rather in his own grand design, a being of flesh and free will

Hey Jedi, Love your videos, and love your perspective. I wanted to just add a few points. Before BFA and the N’zoth fight, we had clues in Legion. In the Emerald Nightmare raid we fought Ilganoth, who spoke in cryptic riddles about N’zoth. At the end of the raid, after defeating the final boss, your raid team is brought to a tranquil glade. If you walk across the water in the glade, you can follow an apparition into the base of a large tree/cave. Inside there’s a single flower bloom that you can’t interact with, but it has flavor text hinting at nightmare/void presence. The only other part I wanted to ask was if you would make a follow up about Teldrissil and Staghelm’s involvement with the corruption. Most of the lore in this is better fleshed out in the Stormrage novel, so it’s not something I expect you to cover. Just wanted to nod to it as it does give further lore insights to why Teldrissil was “doomed”. Thank you again for your content. Go with the force.

I've always been confused by the way the community has interpreted the end of the Emerald Nightmare raid. The Rift of Aln was pretty clearly a preexisting physical place in the Emerald Dream, seemingly in or near its version of Moonglade, or rather below it, that was expanded and reshaped by the nightmare. Killing Xavius restores it to its original appearance, but leaves a tiny remnant of the void energy that had created the nightmare, in the form of that flower. But somehow people interpreted it as being the adventurers who brought that void energy into the dream. The wording is pretty clear imo, a remnant is something left behind, very different to a seed that has been introduced.

@@killerbee.13That’s interesting as I’ve never heard or came to that conclusion. I always thought it was a foreshadowing that N’zoth’s/the voids influence has been forever intertwined with the dream. It’s no longer the pure blueprint of Azeroth the titans intended for it to be, outside forces have left their mark and it can never be made clean again.

Great points! Thank you for sharing. My video "The Mystery of Morrowgrain" is probably the closest I've come to mentioning that storyline and it talks about Staghelm quite a bit :) I think the point of Staghelm knowingly being the one to poison Teldrassil is more of a recent addition (with him working with Xavius and the Nightmare directly as opposed to Old God corruption underground)... but there's a lot of nuance to it so both could be true at the same time.

Something weird I just thought of is that each Old God seemingly connects to the 4 elements in a way, N'Zoth for water, Y'shaarj for fire(because he caused the great cataclysm technically), C'thun for earth(since he's in a earthy prison), and Yogg-Saron for wind(because of northrend's cold winds). I could be wrong with the last three and got them a bit mismatched, but at least N'zoth would connect with the water since he's trapped in the ocean technically.

@Jediwarlock 4 ай бұрын
I like that idea! I would even say that perhaps Y'shaarj's "fire" aspect was incorporated by N'Zoth when he corrupted Deathwing, therefore making him the embodiment of fire even after Y'shaarj was defeated :)

If I remember correctly in the lovecraftian universe Chtullu was assigned to water, so to imprison him one would use the earth element. This does not have to be the way it is adapted in wow - just two cents I found along the road 😄

Forget about those two, I still don't get why people pronounce y'shaarj as "yasharaj" and yogg'saron as "yoggsa'ron" for some reason. Is that how they inflict madness on us in real life? Neither make even a bit of phonetic sense but they somehow became the community-accepted pronunciations while I wasn't looking and it sure tests *my* sanity every time I hear it.

As anticlimactic as N'zoth's defeat was, I am pretty sure that is the whole point, his defeat was meant to be questioned, compared to all the other times we defeated an Old God, this was different and for good reason. Blame potentially bad writing all you like, but the signs have always been there if you know where to look. Don't believe me, then what pray tell how little an impact it is for a champion of Azeroth, one who at one point received N'Zoth's gift, to be sent back to the time of the Black Empire to rescue Chromie. What do you think would happen if an Old God who sees all outcomes now knows exactly how time is going to unfold? Just how deep does N'Zoth's machinations truly go?
