Did anyone else do the quest involving Fearbeaker, the Bronzebeard hammer, in the Ringing Deeps? And we go into "The Living Grotto" and fight a Genesaur? Genesaurs, of course, are part of the Botani, the Life-aligned baddies of the Everbloom... Why the heck was a Genesaur there? I think there's a rhyme and a reason to why we've been doing the specific old dungeons in M+ the last couple of expansions. They're to remind us of specific parts of the lore that will play into the upcoming story. There's a few I can't quite explain to myself yet, though, but a lot of it is "Hey, remember this? You'll probably want a refresher, winkwink nudgenudge" Reworked Uldaman should be pretty self-explanatory, as it was a major plot point in Dragonflight to get everything together. Further, Halls of Valor played into this, with our knowledge about Odyn gained from the books in new Uldaman. Darkheart Thicket played specifically into the Emerald Dream stuff we got in Dragonflight, so that's likely already been "done." Similarly, Neltharion's Lair was related to both the Neltharion storylines going on as well as specifically Ebyssian. Probably "done." The Everbloom is self-explanatory based on the above observation about the Fearbreaker line. Waycrest Manor gave us specifically the Drust, the other side of the Life-aligned baddies. Also, Mists of Tirna Scithe bring in the Drust, too... and what's going on with the Gorm, anyways? Temple of the Jade Serpent was to remind us of the Sha, but specifically in terms of the Old Gods. Remix was Pandaria for similar reasons. They want us thinking about Y'shaarj. Additionally, Atal'Dazar brings in the Old Gods in the form of the blood of G'huun... why did Yazma specifically take the Spider Loa's powers, anyways? Also, The Underrot fits into this specific pile. Grim Batol brings back the Faceless Ones, who are Old God aligned... also, remember Iso'rath down the road from Grim Batol? Yeah, we never really resolved that thing, did we? I'm sure it's not relevant to the current story. Throne of the Tides brought us the void Leviathans in the form of Ozumat. Also, hey, didn't we just get Siege of Boralus, which also has void Leviathans? And we're seeing them in Hallowfall? The only ones I can't quite explain away right now are Court of Stars, Shadowmoon Burial Grounds, Freehold, Vortex Pinnacle, and Necrotic Wake. There's little things, but it's a lot less obvious. I'm fully expecting the story to shift HEAVILY away from just "The Void" as we go into 11.1-11.2, drifting more into "Life can be bad guys too" and "Btw what the heck has Tyr been up to?" The latter I'm expecting to transition into "Btw what the heck has Y'rel been up to- oh, that's not good, Y'rel..." which would then segue into the Light vs Void expansion story beats.

[@Shaabhekh]

If i'm not mistaken, i recall reading somewhere that Genesaurs are a worlds primal defenders? We even have those big burly dudes in ahz-kahet. Might have been a Bellular video, but in either case they were implied to be primal defenders of a world, just a 'natural occurance' so to speak, but with the old Gods and the Titans interfering with Azeroth, they'd have likely been expunged and seen as hostile and unimportant to the world at large (and the factions goals)

[@Highstar25]

The current 'ascended nerubians' story, the Skardyn in the ringing deeps and the story of the nightborne in the court of stars are all narrative echoes of the orcs consuming demon blood. Perhaps this implies that the powers that be are going to become even more aggressive in their attempts to convert the mortals of azeroth into their preferred flavour of energy, as it seems likely that we'll end up fighting enemy lightforged, titanforged, void mutants and so on in the future. Shadowmoon burial grounds' final boss battle depicts an alternate version of a famous warlock/necromancer character in Ner'zhul, but in that timeline he became a void worshipper and attempted to summon the dark star, a void Naaru, which is fairly similar aesthetically to the ritual Xalatath is attempting to perform in hallowfall. Which makes perfect sense as Beledar is pretty blatantly some kind of Naaru-adjacent being's core. Perhaps this manipulation of Ner'zhul was also a call-forward to Xal's attempts to convert Alleria to void worship. Freehold (as well as plenty of the items we've seen in the trading post) seemed like more of a tie-in with Plunderstorm. I don't really have any ideas for Vortex Pinnacle. Maybe just to remind us about the elemental planes, which link in with the backstory of the primal drakes and particularly Razageth. Necrotic Wake might be there to serve as a reminder of the questline in Maldraxxus in which we learned that 'necromancy' is not a specifically death-alligned form of magic, and that any of them can theoretically be used to create undead, as we've seen with Calia Menethil and in the Priory of the Sacred Flame. I wouldn't be surprised if we start encountering undead of the other types as the story continues.

I also like the idea of The Waterworks as a name. Of course it's a place where the water is used to create energy. But the waterworks is also informally used to refer to crying.

[@phaton89]

I have to think that there’s two things growing in tandem right now in Ahz’kahet; the roots of the old world tree, and the remains of Y’shaarj (maybe N’Zoth). Then with Beledar it screams Naaru and goat people that tend to crash into planets. The Army of Light and Arathi just way to closely resemble each other, one just had direct contact with a Prime Naaru. That would be very full circle for Alleria and would explain why she’s seemingly so pivotal for whatever is going on.

[@RyuLightorb]

it's 100% Nzoth you can get a candle via jankies quest which is made of the black blood when you light it a nzoth eye shows up.

[@Highstar25]

@@RyuLightorb Personally I think it's likely to be a hybridized being containing parts of all of the slain old gods, with the energy Xal took from N'zoth when she was used in dagger form to slay him at it's core. Many of the void creatures in Ahz'kahet even look exactly like G'huun, who wasn't even a 'true' Old god, but whose death might have caused it's energy to sink into the earth in the same way that all of the real old gods' essences did. Considering that old gods are essentially just tools of war for the real denizens of the void, recycling their parts in this way seems like a very sensible way to make the best of a bad situation.

I love theorising about the WoW lore and this expansion has been great for that. I've spent hours and hours just exploring and piecing things together and have noticed everything you mentioned in the video. There's also a lot of under sea flora and coral elementals on the way down to Azj-Kahet but confined to just one or two of the layers before it turns into Azj-Kahet proper as you fly down. That coupled with the leaked "Rootlands" map, tells me we will have an area dedicated to the roots, the Haranir and I've got a feeling we'll be dealing with Goblins a lot, maybe alongside another group, as we help the Haranir defend the Roots. Which would link to the speculated/datamined Goblin Raid. The black blood is corrupting life, the world and the roots. The Haranir want to defend them. The Goblins want to profit and use it. Just like they did with Azerite. (I've got a lot of other theories and have posted about them online but I'll leave it at that for now.)

[@lunarscribe8995]

Oh come on! if you haven't guessed it by now...Azeroth, and Elune (and I highly suspect Eonar) are *NOT* "Titans" Gods of Order. They are *LIFE* Goddesses. The Highest beings of Life. Don't believe me let's see...(Why is Eonar the *ONLY* Female "titan"? Why is Nature always referred to as "She"? Why is Elune a "Mother Moon" or the Goddess? Now if you are following me here...Magni when referencing Azeroth always calls Azeroth what? *SHE!* Azeroth is a Life Goddess. Now if we know that then we begin to understand why the "Old Gods were attracted to Azeroth, why the Burning Legion waged a war over her, why Elune circled her, nurturing her, why the Na'ru fled to her, and why Amun'thul seeks to bring her under his command. Life requires a balance of *Everything* not just to survive but to *thrive.* It needs Light and Void, Order and Chaos, Life and Death all in equal measure. Order however does not; so Aman'thul Ripped out both Y'Shaarj and Elun'Ahir. Order at the end of the day does not favor competition. It favors obedience. Now let's ask ourselves; what does favor competition? OH RIGHT! *LIFE!* Nature *thrives* on competition; so much so that it is the driving force of Nature Herself. Now ask yourself the biggest question...Where did the Void Lords, Titans, Na'ru, and Elune (if my theory is correct) come from? They are the "world souls" born from a "high concentration" of Cosmological Energies existent whilst they are forming. Aman'thul either "knows" this or has surmised as such and seeks to make *ALL* world souls "Titans." (His plan being to flood Azeroth with Arcane energy thus creating another Titan instead of A Life Goddess.) That all said...what None of them suspect, neither Void Lords, Na'ru, or Titans; is they are all being played by Elune. All of this competition, all of this tumult and change, *ALL* of this is doing *Exactly* what Elune wanted. Shaping Azeroth to become a Life Goddess. A Mother of Mothers. A Goddess of Life itself. Because as we learned from the Shadowlands if you played in Ardenweald Nature exists on Balance and Cycles. There is only ever *ONE* supreme Life Goddess. (Eonar being corrupted by Aman'thul's Arcane Energies. Not enough to make her "fully" a Titan but enough to tip the scales as it were.) So as Elune wanes Azeroth waxes. As Yesera said to Merithra...(ok so this is going to be the vibe of it...) "I will diminish as you shine." Elune is diminishing, and Azeroth is begining to "shine". They are completing the Cycle of Life.

Just noticing how there's the leviathans and old god blood (the Black Blood) that's near where Elun'Ahir is. And how in some way, the effects wrought by the Void (like the Curse of Flesh) is kinda 'Life' domain like at points (arguably we have 3-4 races naturally occurring from Old God's biomass, and the rest are Titanforged made alive via the Curse, all this 'life' stemmed from the Old Gods)... And now just this ominousness surrounding the yet another hole left in Azeroth where Elun'Ahir is. I'm not going to be surprised if it's revealed that Elune is indeed more aligned or some being originally from the Void. Heck you can even think of how she's the Moon goddess being a metaphor for how people mistake moonlight as being directly from the moon, but the moon actually doesn't produce its own light, it just reflects it. And then there's the common adage of how the full moon makes people go more wild. Plus if her Old God body is actually in the moon orbiting Azeroth maybe that's why she became different. Anyway I'm thinking that along with showing how 'normal' even the Old God derived aqiri based races can become (despite descending from chaos gods' biomass, they all naturally became eusocial insectoids - the most orderly kind of animal IRL), and possibly with showing how Lionel 'evolved', it definitely feels there's going to be a reveal that the whole idea of Light = good and Void = bad is going to be turned on its head as a major plotpoint. Kinda like in Ori and the Blind Forest, where there are shadow creatures and light creatures, and the blinding light burned out innocent baby owls and sent their mother into despair and becoming the big bad. I think the reveal is that creatures of LIght and creatures of Void are just that - they're just different forms of life and can coexist when there aren't Lovecraftian monsters or giant planet people ripping out and leaving holes in the planet crust...

Yeah there is definitely infighting with the keepers here too. If you make an earthen it gives a bit more backstory on the freysworn. There is like a robot that you can learn about the different edicts and it seems that either from the keepers or the titans themselves they didn't want freysworn to expand. They worked for life which is chaos and so keepers wiped the memory of freysworn to bring them to a difficult edict such as building dornigol and the coreway with the stonewards. So even though Eonar never told Amanthul about the roots. The freysworn were meant to be wiped out.

It's a city that was built up later, around the Coreway. Yeah, the roots mean Elun'ahir was likely here. And that likely explains why the Coreway was built here after the tree was torn out, and why it was important to Freya. But the Earthen would not have been here during the time of the tree, before the Titans brought them here for the Coreway project. Nor do these Freysworn claim that.

There is also a connection to either Elune or Aviana. If you look at Hannan’s eyes, one of them has the crescent moon with an orb at the center. The same symbol shown at the shrine of Aviana and some Elune symbology. This, amongst other things has be believing the Harronir derive from harpies. Tying Aviana to G’hinir, which Aluna’her was planted on Azeroth from a branch of G’hinir. It’s another Wild god influence upon the mortal races. Both the night elf’s and trolls owe their heritage to wild gods. Perhaps Aviana is the bridge between all of these races and for all of the elf focus coming up in midnight, perhaps the wild gods will also play a bigger part.

The cosmology (for lack of a better term) of Warcraft has been plainly expressed as relative--especially since the Legion expansion. We have been told (and shown) that the Light isn't necessarily good, and that the Shadow isn't necessarily evil. All that exists, i.e., what necessarily fills the vacuum created by the absence of an objective good, is a will to power (where have I heard that before....hmmm...). So, since Blizzard apparently wants to craft their world now as a morally relative one, there is no reason, outside of personal, selfish preservation including the preservation of one's family, friends, even tribe, to hold anyone's principles and ethics above anyone else's. Therefore, one is free to root for Xal'atath, the current "big bad", as one could admire her drive, consistency and style, whilst many of our legacy characters hover perpetually around self-doubt and sniveling contriteness. Personally, I am hoping that something bigger--a greater authority--than light, shadow, titans, etc. is yet to be revealed, however, if I was a betting man I would wager that won't happen. I fear that retail WoW has seriously painted itself into a corner.

5:19 Real original blizzard. Turn the two female gods into lovers and make the male god be the bad one. Haven't seen that one before.

[@GioFan201051]

What we know so far about Eonar doesn't really paint her as a "good" god, none of the titans seem to be.

[@JulianaBlewett]

Freya isn't a god. She's a titan keeper. She's a construct.

[@raziel6304]

@@JulianaBlewett It's Eonar not Freya

[@Overlyopinionated-wl8jq]

Fwiw, the lore book doesn’t say they are lovers. It reads they had a deep love for one another, which could mean sisterly, or friends, or even just your Person.. your ride-or-die. The queer crowd jumped onto it and said they were lovers and lesbians bc they are obsessed with gender and sexuality and don’t understand platonic relationships

[@user-fv7jd4xj5n]

what I still don't get is how Azeroth can turn magni into a dwarf again. Wasn't the curse of flesh made by the old gods? So she is just cursing him again? Or removing the diamond body makes him turn back to the curse?

[@miamianz]

oh wow what is that quest mod?

[@laertesindeed]

The writing and objects in dragonflight do "NOT" show that Uldorus was the Titans interfering in any natural order. The exact opposite. The Uldorus facility was designed by Tyr specifically because there had been an "interference" and corruption by Yogg-Saron on the dragon eggs....which was allowed and arranged by Loken. Tyr designed Uldorus to cleanse away that corruption and return the dragons back to normal.

[@Pyromancer]

Which they literally then used to bind the dragons to the philosophies of the Titans. It’s in the same report about Uldorus that you’re referencing. Also, the corruption of Yogg in the water was investigated by Loken himself. The guy who was corrupted by Yogg-saron.

[@laertesindeed]

@@Pyromancer I would never say the corruption was "investigated" by Loken.... the lore book is a memo written by Tyr essentially being sarcastic to Loken who was his superior at the time; because he should have been responsible for stopping it. It was essentially like as if I wrote a memo to my supervisor at work about a task fixing a problem and I end the sentence with "of course you would look into this yourself if I hadn't done it, sir..." Where it is implied that Tyr started suspecting Loken being a traitor just before he told the dragon aspects that he was leaving them to deal with things. There was no binding to any philosophy that we have ever seen. Alexstrasza never says "I was forced to do blah blah" .....instead she says "I kind of felt like I might be punished if I didn't use the method to achieve the goal I agreed with" ....it was always methods, not goals. She agreed with the goals and principles and philosophies.

The debris in the coreway came from above. There isnt a lower level to the coreway

[@trogdorburninating]

They defeated a WATCHER, the servants of the keepers, not an actual keeper, and he was dragged away still alive. Keeper Archaedes gave them permission to do so.

[@laertesindeed]

Which leads to the very strong suspicion that Dornic and Galan were not doing what the Titans wanted at all. And rather, maybe they had been in league with Loken secretly betraying the Titans..... and Archaedas and Tyr were aware of that. Thus they promised the Earthen that they could get rid of Dornic and Galan and never be ruled by any such cruel watcher ever again.

Wouldn't Beledar have been there BEFORE anything about Elun'ahir?

[@zugdigitalx]

It crashed around burning crusade time so no

[@laertesindeed]

@@zugdigitalx You are not correct. The arathi human expedition arrived 15 years ago; but Beledar was there long long long before the humans arrived. Way back during the black empire......because the mural on the stone wall in Azj'kahet depicts Beledar being held by some kind of old god thing.

[@daveconner9520]

wasnt there more to the swords involvement though?

[@Platxx]

the water works are nowhere near the hungering pit, otherwise known as "the sink hole"

[@GotekSC]

Is that the fleshpit that bellular and matt have talked about on stream?

[@icarusgeo]

I don't know how many Bellullar videos I've watched throughout the years, a lot, perhaps too many; and how many of those have turned out to be true? Not a single one I can remember. At this point, maybe let's just appreciate his wild theories for what essentially they are, fan fiction 😆

[@TheLun4tic]

I see Dwarven Druids on the Horrizon.

[@KUStuctEng]

I just don't agree that this is the location of the original world tree. The scale jut isn't right. The coreway is tiny compared to the size of the crater that I believe the original tree would have left. I am still going with Ungoro crater as the original world tree site.
