We're Going INSIDE Beledar?! Upcoming Raid (TWW)

[@Doronsmovies]

What's inside the crystal? Also I'd like to thank TSM for making this video possible, level up your wow experience and goldmaking skills with TSM: tradeskillmaster.com/a/Doronsmovies

[@anthonycalfa2048]

called it been thinking about this for months. My thoughts: there'll be two versions a light and dark version with mechanics unique to each, entering exiting or doing certain action in the room could only be accomplished deending on the current change

[@Omnimonism]

There's a flying void octopus called "The Guardian" between the church and Beledar. What is he guarding? 👀

[@andrewgru7077]

id wager Beledar is what brought the old gods to the planet, so it is guarding their transport vessel.

[@GdzieJestNemo]

@@andrewgru7077 or the other way around - Light portal and octopus guardian guards it so that nothing comes out of it

[@efthio]

there is a theory on the net is that the crystal is actually prison for THE old god itself, and other old gods are just lesses parts/minions of it, that is why they were able to be just imprisoned by titan facilities, while beledar is a light encasement prison for the main guy.

[@beerexpert1057]

Those stairs remind me of the entrance points to N'yalotha.

[@havokan45]

I think light will end up being a Naaru or more then one Naaru who are holding a Old God in place . Naaru most be the light for the Crystal then the Void is dark and at times the Crystal goes dark could it be a Old God trying to break free .Maybe it the Old God or what ever it is gets out and that is why the hole is there and i'm sure what ever gets out will use the Void.

[@MoranaPetrusic]

Whos THE old God? I thought they were just seeded by void lords and they tossed out a lot of them randomly

[@andrewgru7077]

im more willing to wager it is empty and was what transported the old gods to the planet in the first place. it shifted to light over thousands of years and is now shifted back to void.

[@Spartucus101]

@@MoranaPetrusic That's what we've been led to believe. But we also thought the Titans were the end all be all creators of the universe. Turns out. Not really. I've had the One old god theory since Mop and my friends said I'm crazy. But it's no coincidence that each "Old God" we've seen represents a part of a larger being. Yogg-Mouths, C'thun-Eyes, G-hunn-Blood, N'zoth-Tentecles(limbs), Y'Shaarj-Heart. I mean 15 years ago you could call it artistic license. But at this point it's undeniable. The Titans destroyed the creator of the universe stole her power and imprisoned the remnants on Azeroth. That's been my opinion for years. Azeroth isn't a Titan or a Titan about to be born. It's the old god, the alpha and omega, the creator of reality and Shes coming back, and she is pissed. Sargeras knew and wanted to destroy it before happened. But that meant the Titans giving up the power. Which they won't do. Pretty boiler plate pantheon of gods mythos. But still pretty cool.

I am betting the Beledar is the thing that originally transported all of the old gods to the planet in the first place and like all void being it eventually shifted to light, and now is starting its process of shifted back to void. Much like how Naaru can shift to void.

Maybe the staircase is what Arathi consider as 'ascension to heaven' or WoW's version of it. They probably consider Beledar as a godlike being and connection with their Emperor.

Hmm.. I always thought its a space ship we saw Anduin captain in a vision during Legion expansion.

[@Arcticiris]

My theory is that it’s the core of a Light Lord of the Naaru. Like the Void Lords to the Old Gods.

[@Wbrowncole]

I feel like the crystal is a world seeded. It what seeded Azeroth with the prime world soul. The more I think about, it how prime world soul came to be in Azeroth. I still believe that prime world soul is a first one just resting in a planet.

[@AlexCombes]

The Ararthi are half-elf, so it kind of makes sens why they call it "Bele..", but the "dar" I dont know.

[@AlexCombes]

Maybe the Beledar is where the world soul Azeroth is growing, like an egg for example. And when it goes in shadow phase it's because she's begun to be corrputed by Old God's blood when Sargeras stabbed Azeroth ?

Beledar could also be a weapon of the light, or a ship containing the prime naaru maybe. Slumbering and being corrupted by the black blood.

[@jfhoude81]

[@BorgWolf359]

I think the Crystal is The Prime Naaru or part of it! We know Naaru can be broken up into individual pieces! I also think the Crystal is here to help Azeroth!

[@hobosnake1]

Interesting. Never thought of the concept of a prime naaru. Is that something that exists in the lore and I just dont know? Or is that speculation? The prime naaru existing in general i mean.

[@hobosnake1]

@@keremtatar7304 That's just a Nauru, isn't it? I don't remember X'era being referred to as a prime Nauru. I am fine with being wrong, though. I am just saying I don't remember that. Definitely agree the light can be weird. I was with illidan in that situation.

[@keremtatar7304]

@@hobosnake1 Well directly quoting the wowpedia here "Xe'ra (pronounced ZEE-ruh),[4] the Light Mother[1] (also spelled Lightmother)[5] or the Mother of Light,[6] was the prime naaru (or the naaru prime),[7] one of the first naaru to be forged during the great ordering of the cosmos."

[@sadmiqoxiv]

Could it just be a light star, the same as the darkstar on draenai? The genedar housed multiple naaru, including x'ara who became the dark star, and later cleansed by alternate velen to become a light star again. Beledar is the same, a ship housing naaru that have evolved into light gods, and suffer from the same void transformations as all other naaru.

[@deathi]

the crystal kind of looks like a prison crystal like illidan was imprisioned in, it could be the world soul trapped inside, it would make sense with so much titan influence on the isle of dorn, what if their original edict was to protect it. it also lines up with how the crystal began to pulse back and forth more rapidly when sargeras stabbed the planet. and the primordial light crystals were world souls being seeded into any planet it sinks into.

[@Tripsyn]

Your work on clarity when speaking English really shows, man. GG

[@jordanpendleton9686]

If you look at beledar, its has some geometric looking shapes that appear to be from inside rather than part of the outer shell. Maybe there is something inside. Maybe another prime narru

[@VonThalberg]

I was thinking about this as well. Not to mention that the runes on the cave ceiling, that encircle Beledar, are almost identical to the ones that the Draenei Exarchs and High priests have (like Velen) on their forehead. And even the name itself... Beledar... Exodar, Genedar, Xenedar, Merchanar, etc. It looks like something made by the Draenei from the army of light ( or the Na'aru commanding them). And one more thing. It makes total sense that it's a very old Na'aru because of its shift. We know that Na'aru turn to void when they "die" or when they are approaching the end of their lifespan. And what do we know that triggered Beledar's shift? The moment Sargeras stabbed the sword, likely causing massive damage to the core of the planet and indirectly to the Na'aru inside Beledar, thus, brining it to the brink of death. We also know from the Arathi that the shifts occur more often as the time passes, likely to the Na'aru getting closer and closer to its end.

[@alexshevel2784]

What if inside beledar is the lights version of the emerald dream and how the emerald dream is linked with ardenwealde what if beledars linked to the void in the same way

[@Honor4All]

I think the Crystal is an Ark for the people of Azeroth to survive Azeroth awakening. I think at the end of the World Soul Saga, we will be evacuating Azeroth and travelling to a new planet. This will ultimately set up the perfect time to introduce WoW 2.0.

[@TAZMASTA40]

Nah, that crystal is coming crashing down, and whatever entity is inside isn't gonna be friendly. What's above the crystal? That's my question.

It looks similar to Oshugun from Nagrand to me so I'm wondering if it is might be something similar, something technoloical.

[@ThisisDD]

Xal'atath refers to Beledar as a "star" and that it is a big source of power. I think she's gathering add much magic as possible in order to break it open and let out whatever is imprisoned inside. Likely the real old god, or maybe Dimensius himself.

[@roninhare9615]

Solid video, but I think you’re missing what it actually is….I am of the belief this is the breath of rukhmar. The breath of Rukhmar was encased within stone and gem, and the denizens carved runes onto its exterior. After the Apexis fell, the ogre king found plans within their ruins that suggested they had built a flying city…. Now prior to the SPIRES of Arak.. it was just one very large SPIRE of Arak, it was only the “destruction” of the breath of Rukhmar that devastated the landscape creating the spires out of the singular spire… when the shadow priest cast his spell sabotaging the breath of Rukhmar, I think he teleported it just like Xal’atath had done with the violet Citidel in Dalaran. The Apexis worshiped the light and Rukhmar is considered the sun goddess of the arakkoa. The Apexis temple of light was massive, and while there are no pictures of the original, I firmly believe this is what it could be… especially with the stair case opening up. Also…. You’re curious as to where this is all heading… Well, I recently was playing with the 2 elevators on the isle of dorn that take you into the ringing deeps, and what I discovered is the underground is not layed out properly… its off, so I photo edited the elevators on both the top side and bellow and realized I had to rotate and scale the ringing deeps to match the isle of dorn… not only that, but hollow fall is actually north of the island, and if I have measured it right, it should be under Tel Abim, and you know what’s also just north of Tel Abim? Kezan! Kezan is actually much more south then shown within the maelstrom which makes me think it will get moved… Kezen and Tel Abim are within the south seas…. And guess what else is now considered in the south seas…. The isle of dorn… That’s your connection the the datamined Kezen leak! Have fun with it!

[@RawreyG]

I hope that Beledar is not just some oversized Apexis crystal from Spires of Arak, that'll make it infinitely less interesting, sorry

At first I thought it was the tip of the sword of sargeras

[@coconutcore]

0:50 As an artist, I firmly disagree. Moreover, intuitively drawing random things sometimes is one of the most important skills for an artist, and how we come up with many of our ideas. Getting directions from the lore team is not the art. If it was, the lore team could do it. (Obviously, in the context this is a pretty massive step outside of the lines, but still.)

[@Malcontent88]

Tbh.. no. I say that because just look how far the crystal is from the chapel. It may have been a concept that they scrapped or passed on.

This expansion continues to make WoD more and more necessary to lore going forward. Had WoD not happened, hardly any of the expansions since would have occurred since most of them rely directly on events that happened in WoD. Gul'dan -> Legion (Sylvanas making deals with the afterline Heyla) -> Sargeras Sword -> Blood of Azeroth (Sylvanas makes deals with Jailer) -> Shadowlands (only the Sylvanas deal with the after storyline that began in Legion) -> Dragonflight (not much really) -> War Within (the Sword being a central focus) -> all mostly set into motion by WoD Gul'dan.

[@ThatGuyKB32]

Thought the legion was coming regardless of guldan and had people here. He only tried to weaken us for them to come but they were coming nonetheless. And Illidan took us to Argus in legion. Don’t think guldan lead to that. Not like the nightborne weren’t doing legion stuff in their bubble with Elissandra

[@corbin_4738]

@@ThatGuyKB32 You can look it up. The Wowpedia/wiki goes into a lot more detail than I care to type here. Suffice to say, Gul'dan was summoning the Legion to Azeroth and was going to use Illidan's body as a host for Sargeras. Which, during the Mythic raid of Nighthold, you defeat and Illidan breaks free. Not to mention that we went there primarily because of Gul'dan. The place had existed for how long and both factions had ignored it? Going there opened the door to Sylvanas meeting Heyla. Began the finding of the Pillars of Creation. Began the artifact weapons. His impact was tremendous. Moreso than people want to give him credit for simply because he came from WoD.

Heck are you on about? Artists DO draw freely pushing new concepts and expanding on directions given to then. Sometimes an artist just draws something random and that ends up becoming what they go for. No writer or game director have a 100% clear vision which is why concept art is so important and is ofc in NO way a guarantee this is going to be canon. I come here for speculation not blatant lies

[@Doronsmovies]

Of course but usually that is in regards to a zone design, a creature. Here we are talking about a crystal that is obviously a focal point of the entire expansion and closely tied to the world soul saga. It is of critical lore importance. I'm not talking about various shapes and sizes of Beledar that is open to artistic interpretation but features like doors connecting to a church which we know right now is in fact heavily connected to the crystal.
