Bringing out the elite sethrak spin

would have made for a compact story with an actual beginning, middle and end. Instead we’re now stuck in limbo where just shows up to be cryptic before vanishing again, and we’re told to be excited to learn her true motivations in the same patch where we kill her.

Xal worked for me earlier in TWW where yes, she was scheming, but you could at least decipher the broad strokes of her plan: She’s a void entity trying to corrupt the worldsoul. I stand by that she should’ve been TWW’s final boss. She was clearly set up as the main antagonist, and fighting her then-

Honestly I fear they might forget/retcon the refti lore to actually make them related to the sethrak, and that’s how we get our TLT snek appearances. The other thought is that they show up as delve NPCs again

Lesbian octopi are eating good today

/boop on all five heads for her

Wow is full of old tired characters they won’t do anything with, but they also won’t establish any new popular younger characters to carry the flame of the IP forward (fuck off arator I hope you perish immediately)

I can only think back to the likes of Boralus whenever I look at new Silvermoon. Imagine having a hub that feels like an actual part of the world. Silvermoon revamp could’ve been such an easy slam dunk of a success, and instead we get. This.

Ah, a truly sacred technique. They say only the most powerful of sethrak can master this fabled move.

Look Upon the Stars Practicing a new angle perspective, very happy how it turned out! 🐉💚

She sees the scar as a source of shame, symbolic of her perceived failure to guide her brother into being a better person. She’s a fair bit older and had a massive role in raising him, and she can’t shake the tendency of feeling like she’s responsible for his every action. Parentified older sibling.

Aethriss got her scar from her younger brother, Vezzik, when he betrayed her to side with the Faithless, not wanting to be on what he considered the losing side of the war. She was on the verge of defeating one of their soldiers when he turned his blade against her.

The snake is perplexed by these carnival rides

ALSO THE WAY LIADRIN GETS A BIG SPEECH BUT ZULJAN GOT NOTHING GOD DAMMIT

This concept gets cooler to me the more I think about it and now I may be inspired to make a furless vulpera. Xolo dog inspired

Midnight aside I was so so disheartened by the decision to obliterate Dalaran for basically no reason, as every NPC that matters made it out alive and nobody even cares anymore. It felt like a totally pithy deletion of an iconic foundation in the setting because it required too much explanation

She’s eating their entire stock. A winning strategy
