Great info! I appreciate you pointing out those details :)

Thank you so much! I think it definitely helps satisfy Fandral's character a bit more than just seeing him flip in Cataclysm like "well, I'm a bad guy now!" XD

The reason he betrays the night elf is that he lost his sanity when the old gods army ripped his kid in two right Infront of his eyes during the battle of the shifting sands (I think it was that battle) and the old gods promised to bring his son back to him if he served them (iirc)

You make a good point! :)

Very true!! Thank you for the comment :)

Agreed! Plenty of hidden details and secrets to uncover! ;)

Excellent point! I did not know that but that helps the theory even more! :D

Thank you very much! :D

It's always fun to think about, isn't it? ;)

@@Jediwarlock **takes off tinfoil hat** Yeah... fun...😅

@@DeathComesQuick666 😂

I agree! Thank you for sharing :)

totally disagree. mysteries being concluded is fine as long as the conclusion is logical and satisfactory -- which often isn't the case in media

I love it XD

Thank you! I am learning new things about my video editor so I'm glad it's paying off with each new video! :D

Haha, you learned your lesson the first time! Very nice XD

Same here. My guildmates made fun of me being a Malfurion fangirl in vanilla. 'Not my arch druid!' was my druid main's catchphrase whenever Staghelm came up, lol. There was much smugness and 'I TOLD YOU!' comments during Cata.

That makes sense to me! :)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it... more adventures soon to come! :D

Very true! :)

Thank you for the thoughtful comment! I will definitely focus on the old world for any future lore theories, so some of them will probably be updated or retconned with the new lore but I'll probably end up ignoring that XD

Bruh why does SL have to mess everything up XD

YES! Thanks for pointing that out. That is something I somehow missed when putting this together but I've always thought that was another weird detail worthy of attention :D

Thank you!! More on the way :)

Great question!! I actually have a video ("The Geologic Marvels of Desolace") that I think touches on that question... in a roundabout way I think YES it is related, since Princess Theradras (servant of the Old Gods I believe) sucked up all the life in Desolace and basically concentrated it down in Maraudon which is why it's all lush and full of life. While I can't say it operated the exact same way as an Old God influencing soil, etc., there are definitely some big similarities! ;)

I agree! It really helps the WORLD of Warcraft thrive instead of keeping everything contained within one zone. :)

One of the best questlines! :D

Thank you very much! I have thought very much about what my next longer video essay will be... if you haven't seen it yet, I also have a longer video on Zul'Drak! :D

Thank you JJ! I agree, having him flip in Cataclysm seemed kind of out of the blue if you hadn't paid *really* close attention to the quests and you had read the book I mentioned.

Thanks so much! I love finding those details ;)

You are very welcome! :)

You are very welcome! Thank you :)

Ooh, very cool! :D

I'm happy to hear that! Yes, there are tons of details that lead to a deeper appreciation for the game and I love finding those! :)

Agreed! :)

That makes me glad to hear! I know I have at least a few watchers who don't play WoW but still enjoy the world and the lore... I'm glad you could join us! :)

You are most welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

That means a lot to me, thank you! :) More adventures coming soon!

Very good point! :D I like that

Thank you! :D Will do.

Thank you! Perfect timing! :)

Thank you very much! :D

Thank you very much! :D

Haha, thank you for the comment! :)

I agree! It was originally in the game files listed as a Raid but it was SOOOO big it could have been a new continent. ;)

I'm glad you think so! :D

Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear it :)

I like that idea! :D

Haha, it is good XP! :)

You are very welcome! Thanks for watching :)

Will do! Thanks :)

Thank you for the thoughtful reply! :D I am interested in taking a closer look at more questlines, yes, so I'm glad you enjoyed this one! I'm also hoping to have more engaging videos as I learn more about my new editing program :)

@@Jediwarlock Sounds good can't wait for the next!

Thank you! :D

Thank you very much! In that case, I'm sure you'll enjoy my next Azeroth's Deep Dive flying around Outland! ;)

@@Jediwarlock That Iam sure of :)

Thanks! :)

Thank you very much! Will do. :)

Thank you very much for that feedback! I am definitely planning on upgrading my audio setup in the future :)

@@Jediwarlock yeah, no problem. Happy to help someone that seems to be putting out decent material. I really do enjoy some of the exploration videos the lore bits, etc. There are plenty of big name, streamers, who I will not mention, and they are no different than news sources sensationalizing stories to earn more clicks. nowadays, I play the game for different reasons, the main one, though being exploration, taking the paths less traveled. I don’t need to watch some guys with streamer status. Tell me how about all the sweet loot they got by running content that I will never see until several years from now.

YES! Very observant... I was wanting to incorporate that into the video but it slipped through the cracks. I definitely think Fandral had others on the inside who were either misguided by his idea or were also outright corrupted!

Thank you! Hidden and secret parts of WoW are my specialty ;)

@@Jediwarlock you might never ran out of stories then haha !

Thanks! :)

Thank you very much! :)

Haha, thanks! XD

I like that idea! :D

That's a good point!

Thanks! :D

Haha, oh no! XD

Good point! The motivations are a little tricky for sure...

Coming soon! ;)

@@Jediwarlock Good. You're like the Discovery Channel(back when it was good) of WoW

Haha, she was the good one all along! :o

Jailer was obviously planned from WC1!

You make a good point! XD

You make some good points! I appreciate the thoughtful comment.

But Emerald Dream was created by Titans. Or at least taken over by them, when they conquered Azeroth. So there might be some connections, though they haven't been revealed yet by Blizzard. And knowing their love for retcons, I wouldn't be surprise if we got something later on.

@@Kevkoss No, Un'Goro and Sholazar dont have connections to the dream. The Dream is life in Azeroth Untouched by the titans. So the titans, wanting to see what they can do, created Un'Goro and Sholazar to study life if left to its own devices. They were experiment's on a grand scale, nothing to do with the Emerald dream. They seem so similar because the Titan Freya, along with others not named, created the Emerald Dream as blueprint for creation of Azeroth's flora and fauna. Then SHE created Un'goro and Sholazar as literal test sights for designing life by letting it just grow without influence. It has nothing to do with the Emerald Dream, literally nothing, beyond the fact the person who created the Dream is involved with the 2 zones and the Dream. Also with current expansion, I'm thinking its more likely we will be exploring Netherwing Dragons more and Pandaren Wind Serpents more in a later patch. I don't play WoWs much anymore, but I stay updated on lore.

@@pokeylope6108 I think you misunderstood me. I didn't say they have connection. I only said that with Blizzard retcon machine I wouldn't be surprised if there was one revealed in the future on the basis they're closely related to titans.

He was a major antagonist in the tree in Legion. In Cataclysm he was retconned as one of main corruptors of Teldrassil, but before then it is implied that the Old Gods were corrupting the roots of Teldrassil and creating the Emerald Nightmare stronger. :)

You never know haha

Haha, thanks! :D

We were all fooled unfortunately :')

Thank you very much! I do have some very quiet background music, but I've considered turning it up at certain parts where I'm not speaking :D

Haha, I like it! XD

Thank you, haha!

Nice XD

Nice!

Very good point! I know a lot of people enjoy having these mysteries unsolved :)

@@Jediwarlock it wasn't so much an unresolved mystery. Cata just full stopped many plot threads in rather underwhelming ways. Marrowgrain just being a poison and not delving into its side properties and then oofing Fandral is just one of many. They did the same thing to Eranikus and basic everything in Azshara

Thank you so much! More longer vids in the future for sure! :)
