[05:41] inside of his head and this is a big

[05:42] thing I don't actually know if this

[05:44] actually played out in

[05:47] game but it's a big subject of the novel

[05:50] arus rise of the Lich King I generally

[05:53] don't think they ever put it in the game

[05:54] not that it matters much but it would be

[05:55] a nice detail um and as is what we saw

[05:59] is that he was talking to himself he was

[06:02] thinking about the road the damnation

[06:04] his love between Jana the fall FAS and

[06:06] kilas and and miv and all that

[06:10] and in his mind he picked up Frost and

[06:13] he stabbed his younger innocent self

[06:17] someone called mafas

[06:19] laner and then nzu was laughing and

[06:22] cackling and he was like yes together we

[06:24] will rule the

[06:39] lichking and I am ready and that point

[06:42] he woke up and someone like Jana could

[06:43] feel it and someone like Sylvanas could

[06:45] feel it and soon enough the forces of

[06:48] Norr would invade the world in like the

[06:50] pre-event and so the Alli and hord were

[06:52] called into Norr they were challenged by

[06:55] the Lich King along the way come Heroes

[06:58] come face me

[07:00] because his plan was to get the biggest

[07:02] bestest fighting force up to the top of

[07:04] ice Crown res it into his army GG I win

[07:08] all good let's

[07:09] go um beyond that we also had the blue

[07:13] Drager flight story line last time with

[07:16] Outland we spoke

[07:19] about Twilight

[07:22] dragons making way into the Nexus

[07:25] attacking it and then Melos eating them

[07:28] up and regain gaining his sanity and

[07:31] malagos realized that the world was

[07:33] abusing magic and so he started the

[07:35] so-called Nexus war and he was like I'm

[07:38] going to murder all these Mages and I'm

[07:39] going to pull in all the lay lines lay

[07:41] lines are like magical veins of power

[07:43] I'm going to pull those into the Nexus

[07:45] and no magic for any of you which went

[07:48] completely against his charge given to

[07:50] him by the Titans like he was supposed

[07:51] to safeguard magic but not hoard it

[07:53] right like it's a gift so and on top of

[07:56] that if he would have succeeded he would

[07:58] have destroyed the world

[08:00] so Delan after rebuilding from the

[08:02] events of Warcraft 3 where our commander

[08:04] like destroyed the city they had been

[08:05] living under a uh purple bubble in

[08:09] classic um dadan was re was done

[08:11] rebuilding and he took the city and took

[08:14] it over into norand where we would find

[08:16] it uh the kinor led by Ronin uh one of

[08:20] the few characters that I still need to

[08:21] make a video on actually one day and

[08:24] they showed up in Norr for the Nexus War

[08:26] whereas the alliance and the hords they

[08:28] would enter through two different areas

[08:31] we would have the howling F and we would

[08:32] have Boran

[08:35] Tundra and that's kind of where I wanted

[08:37] to

[08:38] start but then the game was like oh yeah

[08:40] we're exploring the world right now well

[08:42] I guess we're going to give you some

[08:43] experience so that's how I DED my bad so

[08:46] as far as I

[08:48] remember and Chad by all means correct

[08:50] me if I'm wrong uh as far as I remember

[08:53] you could make a choice between the

[08:56] howling Fjord and the borean tundra

[08:57] where you wanted to level and

[09:00] and this was done in such a way so that

[09:03] the uh player base would actually split

[09:04] apart whereas in the past if you would

[09:05] send them all through the dark portal

[09:07] into Hellfire Peninsula you might

[09:09] imagine a whole lot of players without

[09:11] the whole technology of phasing uh your

[09:14] servers are going to die a horrible

[09:16] death uh in this way they would actually

[09:18] separate the player base and then with

[09:19] the cataclysm they would do it again

[09:20] with Mount hayel and

[09:23] vajir so he would actually have the

[09:24] choice as to where he wanted to go and

[09:26] ezone had like their own story lines

[09:28] that went down um Boran Tundra did get

[09:32] the nickname boring

[09:34] Tundra as Alliance it was hard to find

[09:36] your way to the howling F yes I do

[09:38] remember my alliance character going to

[09:41] the Boran Tundra a

[09:43] lot yeah I think you had a choice yeah

[09:47] oh uh and now comes the hard part where

[09:51] I need to remember the story lines that

[09:53] took place we're going to we're going to

[09:56] piece it all together together it's

[09:57] going to be great

[10:01] and per usual if I'm forgetting

[10:03] something if you want to call me out on

[10:04] something by all

[10:06] means go for it chat so uh howling FS a

[10:11] big part of the story line that took

[10:13] place here was smuggling in the

[10:15] ashbringer

[10:17] and in the death knight starting area we

[10:20] would find out that der MRA and the

[10:22] Death Knight they were sent over by arus

[10:24] in order to attack ligh Hope

[10:27] Chapel I just realized my adon's not not

[10:29] working hey hang on a minute so death

[10:32] knight starting area arus sending out

[10:35] the death Knights to attack Lio chapel

[10:37] and I do believe that we already spoken

[10:39] about Darion and the ashbringer but in

[10:41] short darion's father Alexandra's mgrain

[10:43] was the ashbringer Betrayed by the

[10:45] eldest then his

[10:48] youngest saved his father from nas took

[10:50] the blade to Scarlet Monastery where the

[10:52] spirit of his father killed to the

[10:54] eldest and

[10:55] then Darion showed up at light Hope

[10:58] Chapel in order to help the defended

[10:59] against Kel fuad and the undead forces

[11:02] making the ultimate sacrifice of

[11:03] stabbing himself the Skies open up with

[11:05] a holy light but in doing so he now

[11:08] surrendered himself to the careful

[11:09] Embrace of Kel fuad and theking by the

[11:12] time raal theking rolls around we would

[11:13] see Darion with a corrupted asbring in

[11:15] hand mind warped turned into a servant

[11:18] of the Lich King the very thing he

[11:19] fought against and he was once again

[11:22] sent out to attack light hope Chapo

[11:23] light hope Chapo is like Holy Ground

[11:25] consecrated ground a prime target for a

[11:27] whole lot of very power people that the

[11:29] lkin wanted to resurrect uh regardless

[11:32] of the price that he was going to pay

[11:33] now Tyrion foring was also a li Hope

[11:36] Chapel and Tyrion knew Darion from life

[11:39] so Tyrion held the line against Darion

[11:41] the Lich King then shows up a little bit

[11:43] of a memory cut scene plays out and

[11:45] Darion decides to throw the corrupted

[11:47] Ash bring at the Tyrion and upon

[11:48] touching it the light cleanses and

[11:51] purifies the blade making it a massive

[11:53] powerful tool to ward off arus to ward

[11:56] off the Lich King send them back home

[11:58] and next time time we would face him it

[12:00] would not be on Holy Ground

[12:02] Paladin at that point

[12:04] Tyrion took out the Argent Crusade with

[12:08] the Knights of the Evan blade and he

[12:09] declared like we're going to Norr baby

[12:12] we're going to take the battle to arus

[12:13] it's going to be great yeah and

[12:15] everybody was invited Alliance hord the

[12:18] death Knights got a special note and

[12:20] it's like listen right listen Tyrion

[12:22] could write a not to rri cuz they had a

[12:24] whole history from blood and honor where

[12:26] Tyrion stepped up to save rri's life and

[12:28] you know I'm going to kill this orc and

[12:30] of course the alliance tyan forging was

[12:32] quite the hero amongst the people and

[12:34] the death Knights were allowed into the

[12:35] alliance and the hordes uh upon his call

[12:38] uh despite some Tomatoes being thrown

[12:40] when you ride into the city um so here

[12:43] they decided to bring over the

[12:45] ashbringer to get a barion uh because

[12:47] they had to get him into Northend right

[12:48] like it's all fine and Danny to declare

[12:50] we're going to fight the lichking in his

[12:51] home base but good luck fighting the

[12:53] Lich King in his home base like it's not

[12:55] going to be easy to just walk into

[12:56] Mordor you're going to have to be sneaky

[12:57] about it so they decided to send over

[13:00] Tyrion all disgu and cloaked and then

[13:02] send over the ashbringer by like a

[13:04] carrier except the carrier nearly dies

[13:06] and it's thanks to us that were're able

[13:07] to bring the ashbringer back to Tyrion

[13:10] upon which he's like you know what

[13:12] enough games enough other people dying

[13:14] for me enough dying people dying for the

[13:16] cause I am Tyrion motherucker foring and

[13:20] I will take the battle to arus and the

[13:22] Lich King come at me uh so he held out

[13:25] his weapon no more schemes like that and

[13:28] so we reunited him and we wouldn't see

[13:29] him again until ice crown of memory

[13:32] serves beyond that a secondary story is

[13:37] that sylvan's windrunner has a massive

[13:39] hate boner for arus the lichking with

[13:41] good reason of course arus destroyed

[13:44] quas killed the ranger General did not

[13:46] give her the piece of death but instead

[13:48] brought her back keni forced it to serve

[13:50] she was then able to liberate herself as

[13:52] nul's Powers were waning and uh from

[13:55] that point on she declared vengeance

[13:56] upon arus she tried once with poison but

[13:59] they failed cuz Kad intervenes but now

[14:01] they're going to have a second chance

[14:03] and for the longest time the Apothecary

[14:05] amongst the Forsaken had been working on

[14:07] a plague a plague that not only works on

[14:10] the undead but also on the living the

[14:12] perfect weapon to throw at arus the

[14:14] lking anything and everything it took

[14:16] they were going to take care of arus

[14:18] they also recruited the aid of the blood

[14:20] elves uh Lord from maruron was very kind

[14:23] or very thankful for the Forsaken for

[14:25] their aid with bringing in the blood

[14:26] elves into the hordes but then after the

[14:28] burning said as the blood Els were still

[14:30] licking their wounds Sylvanas rolled up

[14:32] but she was like look it's time to go to

[14:34] Norr I held up my end of the bargain now

[14:36] you better help out and lar was like

[14:38] Sylvanas look around you look at the

[14:41] people they're hurting she's like I

[14:43] don't care you go or you lose the aid of

[14:45] The Forsaken and if you lose the aid of

[14:47] forsaken I wish you best of luck in

[14:50] these lands so lar had no choice to

[14:52] actually help out and we all set still

[14:55] here and a big part of the quest line

[14:57] here is that they are perfecting the

[14:58] plague

[14:59] uh the plague that was going to be used

[15:01] upon arus now there is the part at the

[15:02] Roth Gates which we'll get to in just a

[15:04] moment my favorite cut scene in this

[15:06] game um one of my favorite cut scenes I

[15:09] should say but yeah that plague was

[15:11] developed and at some point there came a

[15:14] bit of an argument about did Sylvanas

[15:17] order the ra gate or not and there was

[15:19] some dialogue in the Chronicles that

[15:22] some did not trust Sylvanas that she did

[15:24] it on purpose and that she wanted to

[15:26] wipe out everybody and blah blah blah um

[15:30] um I think originally the story was not

[15:33] that way I think originally the story

[15:34] was that she was betrayed from Ain by

[15:37] the dreadlords trying to summon Saras by

[15:39] the

[15:39] apicary um but at the same time she did

[15:43] develop this plague and then in the

[15:45] future would use this plague and giln as

[15:47] well so let's not pretend like Sylvanas

[15:49] is this innocent Angel that's oh the

[15:51] living oh I love the living I would

[15:53] never use the plague against the living

[15:56] me having little plans oh I would never

[15:58] no it's sylvan's moducking wi Runner she

[16:01] will do whatever it takes to get the job

[16:02] done would she be responsible for the

[16:04] Ral gate I

[16:06] mean would she be against it would be my

[16:09] question like if if what happened at the

[16:11] Ral gate would have secured the kill

[16:12] upon arus would she have done it 100% I

[16:15] think she would have wiped out the

[16:16] entire eyin and The Horde if it took her

[16:18] if it took if it was that the price that

[16:21] she had to pay in order to take care of

[16:22] arus I think she would have I think that

[16:24] falls in line of her character but

[16:26] that's purely

[16:27] me next that we also get introduced to

[16:30] the Vu of

[16:32] Norr and the Vu are the predecessors of

[16:37] the humans the humans are Vu but you

[16:40] know FR hit by the curse of Flesh and

[16:42] over time they evolved into what would

[16:44] be known as the humans but at some point

[16:46] the king yimon he was like Hey you know

[16:50] our Gods

[16:52] suck any gods that would give us this

[16:54] curse of Flesh are no true Gods screw

[16:56] the Titans everything sucks and and I

[16:59] think at some point they Place

[17:00] themselves into um hibernation to like

[17:03] stay off the effect right they did a

[17:05] similar thing in ulman uh but before

[17:07] that moment yimon had given the order to

[17:09] the parents of the Vu kids like deformed

[17:12] half human half

[17:14] Vu gross children like you need to kill

[17:16] them just get rid of

[17:19] these kill kill these children they're

[17:22] not true Vu get rid of them but the

[17:24] parents could not at least not some of

[17:25] them could not um

[17:29] and so instead of killing their children

[17:30] they sent their children to the myth

[17:32] mythical land of tius fall where tier

[17:34] had fallen where fru had followed him

[17:37] and they would eventually rise up form

[17:39] the arafi Empire and funny enough our

[17:42] yimon would eventually serve the

[17:44] lichking and arfus was a human so you

[17:47] know shows what he knew as well as

[17:50] humans took uh took care of them like he

[17:53] wasn't even able to take care of them

[17:54] which is nice because in the Warrior

[17:56] order Hall Once Upon a Time while we

[17:58] still had funny voice lines he would

[18:00] actually yell at you and curse at you

[18:01] but I think they've taken out that line

[18:03] I don't know why it was one of the

[18:04] better voice lines they ever had and

[18:06] they took it out wait can I let you hear

[18:08] it

[18:09] maybe um King yimon cursing Warrior

[18:15] order Hall St why couldn't you let me

[18:19] die curse you curse your mother I will

[18:24] fite your head down down your throat you

[18:28] holding himself with under the

[18:32] ground but that was uh apparently deemed

[18:35] too much for um for my Warcraft so you

[18:40] know it's been removed

[18:43] imagine uh but yeah we interacted with

[18:45] the Vu we did the whole udgar keep thing

[18:48] uh we also learned a little bit more

[18:49] about Vu culture

[18:53] so what we learn in the future is that

[18:57] uh keeper Odin would still this whole um

[19:01] cultural idea that becoming a velir was

[19:05] like a really cool thing right like

[19:06] something that you had to strive for and

[19:08] that joining him in his Halls was

[19:10] something that every viol should live

[19:12] their life in service to and a similar

[19:14] thing is reflected here in northrend

[19:15] where it's seen as a great honor to

[19:16] become a velkey for the lichking um so

[19:19] that's what the Vu are fighting for to

[19:22] become

[19:24] Yar they want to become like epic

[19:26] Fighters amongst the

[19:31] lichking

[19:33] forces no bleeped out curse words I am

[19:37] genuinely wondering what is happening

[19:38] here iron Rune Smith okay so similar to

[19:42] the frol we also have the uh Irvin that

[19:45] are the predecessors of the dwars and

[19:48] again under the idea of the curs of

[19:49] Flesh the Irvin would evolve into the

[19:53] dores we know as today although we also

[19:55] learned about new Irvin on kogar with

[19:57] the whole story for the war Within uh in

[19:59] a similar vein we have mecom whereas the

[20:01] mechan they would evolve under the curse

[20:03] of Flesh and become the Gnomes as we

[20:04] know them as today so the curse of flesh

[20:06] is a curse that the old G Yak Sharon

[20:09] placed in udar and that would infect

[20:11] these Titan forged not just the ones

[20:13] that would come out of the prison or out

[20:15] of the machine after he infected it but

[20:18] also pass on the curse to those who

[20:19] already were created here we have shade

[20:21] of arugal Aral was the one who summoned

[20:23] a wargan into

[20:25] asro and uh he died but then they tried

[20:28] to resurrect him here um so we stopped

[20:30] the Lich game for resurrecting arugal

[20:32] I'm imagining that would be pretty bad

[20:34] for to have the wizard that was able to

[20:36] get like the warun out of the emal dream

[20:37] in order to bring more for uh you know

[20:40] the L King's Army it's not cool it's not

[20:42] great um what else we

[20:46] got oh yeah Thea the rusian oh my God I

[20:51] forgot about

[20:53] that gill so trolls right troll trolls

[20:58] Once Upon a Time were the boss amongst

[21:02] these lands trolls owned aerov pretty

[21:05] much trolls were amazing but the trolls

[21:08] oh they've Fallen upon Hard Times time

[21:10] and time again um like in this case they

[21:14] had to deal with the Lich King in nor

[21:18] friend so the trolls they became so

[21:21] desperate that they started to sacrifice

[21:23] their own Loa devour them to get like

[21:27] powered UPS or whatnot

[21:29] so yeah it wasn't exactly the greatest

[21:31] time for them uh there was also the idea

[21:33] of zul and we'll talk about more when we

[21:35] get there but there was the idea of

[21:36] gundra being a raid instead of just a

[21:37] dungeon that we went through uh hence

[21:39] why it's so huge it's so big howy johy

[21:43] hello right here we have a world tree

[21:46] will you tell me which world tree it is

[21:51] um okay now I need to remember it from

[21:54] the top of my head I don't know it it

[21:55] means like Fallen crown or something

[21:57] someone in chat help me out what is this

[21:59] one called again anyways this is a world

[22:01] tree similar to a nordil similar to a

[22:04] tasil similar

[22:06] to the one in Dragon flight um once upon

[22:12] a time they found out about is a for

[22:14] dril there you go thank you very much

[22:15] for dril Once Upon a Time we

[22:20] had

[22:22] malfurion who had a

[22:25] follower don't help me I need to know

[22:27] this come on brain we had tond T doesn't

[22:31] know how to lead our people vendel stack

[22:33] Helm we had St Helm who was like Hey

[22:37] look we got this problem with serenite

[22:40] right but you know what we could do we

[22:42] could take like branches of nordil and

[22:44] we just Plant World trees all over the

[22:46] place and if we plant World trees it

[22:48] will fix the corruption it will fix the

[22:51] lands it's going to be

[22:53] great ml furion told him don't do it

[22:57] it's a really dumb idea and stack Helm

[23:00] did it anyways and for a while vril was

[23:05] doing fine vril was great it did exactly

[23:09] what stel hoped it was going to do until

[23:11] its roots hit yaron's Subterranean

[23:14] prison that's right yaron is so big that

[23:17] his prison where we face him right is up

[23:19] here but he is apparently the size of

[23:20] Norr that's how big yakon is um so the

[23:24] roots they touch yaron's Subterranean

[23:26] prison wherever that might be and from

[23:28] that connection yuron is able to

[23:30] infiltrate something called the emerald

[23:32] dream and lay down the seeds what be

[23:34] known as the Emerald nightmare So

[23:36] eventually they figure out like oh

[23:39] corrupt the trie we have to chop it down

[23:41] now and so they did and it was a great

[23:44] waste because you know it's not like

[23:47] World trees just grow on other trees

[23:50] ain't it ah well they do but you know

[23:52] it's still a world tree it's still sad

[23:54] so they had to bring it down um that's

[23:56] where they put like the origin the

[23:58] emerald nightmare uh we also is this

[24:01] where we join oh I need to check the cam

[24:05] is this where we join butt for the first

[24:07] time I think it is actually hang

[24:09] on Yoo but are you in

[24:14] there

[24:17] uh Samir do you have a butt around here

[24:20] or not yeah you

[24:24] do cool hi bud what can I do for you go

[24:28] man so clearly this is but the troll uh

[24:32] and I remember but as the one that on

[24:34] the boat that goes

[24:35] aho I'm

[24:37] sailing but here he was still a little

[24:39] bit sane of mind until you do this whole

[24:41] quest line and he's like nearly

[24:42] sacrificed to like the Lowa

[24:45] dururu uh dururu pretends to be a very

[24:48] nice troll but then it turns out that he

[24:49] actually serves the Lich King but we

[24:51] help him out whoopsy Daisy and they're

[24:53] very much dealing with like uh the Warg

[24:55] threet around these parts um don't get

[24:58] bitten by the wargan cuz you will become

[24:59] a wargan yourself um I'm genuinely

[25:03] trying to remember what it was with the

[25:04] Iran and electricity I remember that

[25:06] there was something

[25:08] about I'm probably going to be Undead

[25:09] forces ain't it uh one cool detail to

[25:12] mention is that the Lich King shows up

[25:14] as you deal with the storyline with the

[25:16] Vu um and this is something that falls

[25:19] in line with the idea of he was

[25:20] constantly showing up and taunting you

[25:24] um this is something that they try to

[25:26] miror with future story lines when it

[25:28] comes to like the shadowlands and and

[25:29] and the lichking and whatnot they tried

[25:31] to mirror it but in its imitation they

[25:33] forgot one important part which is the

[25:35] lichking Tunas with a purpose um very

[25:39] much the idea of you can't defeat me

[25:43] anyways I can wipe you out with a snap

[25:46] in my fingers cuz I am the Lich King you

[25:48] can't defeat me so come Heroes face me

[25:51] at the top of ice Crown uh I'm waiting

[25:54] for you bring it and that's exactly what

[25:56] we did and the L King was right we did

[25:58] not win you might ask yourself yeah but

[26:01] Noble hang on didn't we win at the top

[26:03] of ice Crown weren't we like successful

[26:05] and the L game was that yes but to that

[26:07] I argue that we fullon cheated and we

[26:10] have Tyrion X makina to thank for that

[26:13] light give me one final blessing to

[26:15] shatter these

[26:17] bonds uh can you imagine being the Lich

[26:19] King at that point and it's like I win I

[26:23] have done everything right and then it's

[26:24] like wait what Kaio what Kai okay and is

[26:28] like no that's not fair and then he just

[26:30] shatters Frost more and it's like oh

[26:33] okay then and then we all get

[26:34] resurrected and we Face the day and then

[26:36] we win uh like obviously it's one of

[26:38] those things that had to happen but I

[26:39] remember having a discussion the other

[26:40] day about isn't it allly convenient that

[26:43] ayia was able to shoot the dark heart

[26:44] and I'm like yeah but it was all

[26:46] convenient that Tyrion was able to

[26:47] shatter frostborn you know did the Naru

[26:51] bless

[26:52] Tyrion hard to say to be honest um does

[26:57] all the light flow from the the Naru I

[26:58] don't think we've ever got the full on

[27:00] confirmation on that um I will say

[27:03] though I do like that it was actually

[27:05] tyrion's final blessing cuz after that

[27:07] the light was like n f

[27:14] you okay that's better like that's

[27:17] that's ambient noise I need the actual

[27:19] music uh cuz in Legion he was like the

[27:23] light will protect me and then the light

[27:24] was like I'll try but that's a lot of

[27:26] fail and then he started to yell and

[27:27] scream for the life uh urok oh yeah a

[27:31] rip

[27:33] OK wild god of the

[27:36] Bears dead now full on

[27:39] dead

[27:41] um U headed coming wow so this is zra uh

[27:48] with the drari trolls and as I said

[27:51] they've had a really bad time in these

[27:53] parts uh the Lich king's forces have

[27:56] moved out tremendously with plague

[27:58] spreaders with giants that have been

[28:01] converted to their size and the campaign

[28:03] of Lich King of northrend is not one

[28:05] that's just instantly that that popped

[28:07] up out of nowhere this is something that

[28:09] goes back to the days that nul was crash

[28:12] landed by the burning Legion on the

[28:13] planet and he slowly but surely started

[28:15] to creep out with his influence

[28:20] and he's been using stuff like the

[28:22] plague but also his own necromantic

[28:25] powers manipulations and whis spers on

[28:28] the air and his psychic abilities became

[28:31] tremendously up to the point where arur

[28:34] showed up at northrend and the Lich King

[28:36] was already very

[28:38] powerful and only more so when they

[28:40] merged together again um here there was

[28:44] a big old storyline where we actually

[28:47] pretended to work with them also trim

[28:50] the Hope Ender big old body parts put

[28:53] together look at that look at the beauty

[28:56] um and we joined the Giant in order to

[28:58] fight against them here we pretended

[29:00] like we got a disguise on and we

[29:02] pretended to help them out over at the

[29:03] base and then the Lich King showed up at

[29:05] the end and he was like I know that

[29:07] you're faking it stop it and then we had

[29:09] to kill the guy that was in here like it

[29:11] was awesome this quest line I always

[29:12] love doing a dur ra lking cuz the reward

[29:15] was great as well you get like a

[29:16] necklace and a big amount of

[29:18] experience um I was well happy about

[29:25] that and in the case of

[29:29] um gundra like I mentioned there was the

[29:33] idea of we're going to turn this into a

[29:35] raid but during development they don't

[29:38] know exactly what they did with it did

[29:39] they had a change of Hearts change of

[29:41] Minds I don't know I do remember Jesse

[29:43] Cox asking about a worm that he

[29:45] found and that they never had a clear

[29:48] answer for and Jesse was like listen

[29:50] wait we need to bring up the clip we

[29:51] need to look at that cuz you're you're

[29:53] going to be like noble what the hell are

[29:55] you talking

[29:56] about oh yeah one really cool part by

[30:00] the

[30:00] way

[30:03] um I remember

[30:06] now um they were at the camp so that

[30:10] means they're further up oh God where

[30:13] were they again I think here they were

[30:15] at the Loa camp or maybe there let's

[30:18] find out uh there's one little neat

[30:20] detail around

[30:23] here no not here

[30:28] [Music]

[30:34] there's the idea of like we all have

[30:36] battle razov behind us now so we've met

[30:38] up with the zandalari trolls and in

[30:41] troll Society the zandalari were like

[30:43] the big Chiefs Once Upon a Time right

[30:45] and they saw the other tribes as you

[30:46] know like children spreading out and

[30:48] like oh look how proud We Are of these

[30:49] children the gurubashi the Amani the

[30:52] Jakari but at the end the

[30:56] the Zan thei still felt themselves

[30:59] somewhat Superior to

[31:01] them um so what we have in battle for

[31:04] azov is we actually went to their uh

[31:07] Capital whatnot but here back in raal

[31:09] toking we have chronicler tokini and

[31:12] they are here for a reason um they're

[31:14] here to like chrony the downfall of the

[31:17] Jakari Empire so that's kind of cool Oh

[31:20] I thought that was kind of neat um right

[31:25] Jesse Jesse asks about about snake oh

[31:29] this is going to wreck my

[31:30] recommendations ain't

[31:32] it uh Jesse Cox that's even

[31:36] [Music]

[31:48] worse

[31:49] [Applause]

[31:51] nice so very very good question 13 years

[31:55] ago by the way thank you

[31:58] hey there guys uh this is a question

[32:00] that I have had for three years uh one

[32:03] and a half expansions I thought I was

[32:05] going to get an answer in 4.1 I thought

[32:08] I was going to get an answer with the

[32:09] troll guy who asked his troll questions

[32:12] but um here it is in the gundra dungeon

[32:16] there is an area with the stone Sentinel

[32:18] guys and if you look over the cliff

[32:21] there's a big Wiggly snake tail and I

[32:25] have been bothered by this forever

[32:27] because there's nothing something that

[32:28] massive and and snaky in the uh like it

[32:33] so with these questions I I I've seen

[32:36] Chris answer these in the past and it's

[32:37] one of those like we we'll see I'll look

[32:39] into it so I brought a

[32:42] screenshot of it uh I blew it

[32:48] up the man comes armed with a wiggly

[32:50] snake tail 10 out of

[32:53] 10 a wiggly snake tail appears it's

[32:57] super effective

[33:00] [Applause]

[33:11] effective that's serious face is well

[33:14] like yeah

[33:15] dude sure snake tail uh-huh dude just

[33:19] showed you a snake

[33:21] man feel

[33:24] dirty so you said there was something

[33:26] driving the trolls and and uh it ain't

[33:29] that all right well so then what is this

[33:33] giant snake

[33:36] tail clearly it's a super critical story

[33:39] point to World of Warcraft he hav't

[33:40] found out yet it's it's it drives me

[33:42] crazy and I you know I'm just curious

[33:44] It's the first sign of the return of the

[33:47] Titans and miv will be leading them uh

[33:50] the forums will be holding is going to

[33:52] leave Agra and start dating Jana

[33:58] wow confirms just kidding oh oh how dare

[34:02] you I don't know what the hell that

[34:04] snake thing is but it's kind of

[34:06] cool some I'll be very honest sometimes

[34:09] really cool stuff appears in our game

[34:12] and then we kind of scramble to figure

[34:13] out why it would be there cuz it's cool

[34:16] artists love to just do cool stuff and

[34:18] so yeah sometimes sometimes we miss

[34:20] something like something cool is there

[34:21] and we're like oh wow I there you go a

[34:25] worm Tail in gundruk now you know my

[34:29] lordy Jesse is looking young there sheez

[34:32] man go so

[34:36] quick yeah they're going to bring in

[34:38] that snake in a future expansion I mean

[34:41] Jesse was one of the Pioneers when it

[34:42] comes to the whole J as a dreadlord meme

[34:44] and while it is one of the most annoying

[34:46] things that I got on the stream asked

[34:48] over and over and over again I find it

[34:52] amazing that they used that concept and

[34:55] applied it to Heroes of the Storm yeah

[34:57] years that man has been proclaiming it

[34:59] and it actually made it into Heroes like

[35:01] come on that is [ __ ] sick

[35:04] um so yeah t and gundra for some reason

[35:09] um and here we're dealing again with the

[35:11] darari trolls devouring their own Loa

[35:13] and we had to go in and we had to stop

[35:14] them cuz that's not something that

[35:15] you're supposed to do

[35:20] um there's also the Scarlet Crusade

[35:22] making more Headway and very much altery

[35:24] like this is you know drari Empire uh um

[35:28] and if you're thinking about the Loa

[35:29] thing for example hakar the soul flare

[35:31] you've dealt with those Loa or again in

[35:33] battle for azero the Lowa would a big

[35:35] part of the xandari troll story arc um

[35:40] volen is still in his little resting pod

[35:42] with the Loa of Kings infused into a

[35:44] soul so that might be a thing in the

[35:46] future and yeah if you look at the space

[35:48] if you look at what they've put down

[35:50] here you can definitely tell like oh

[35:51] yeah this could have been the size of

[35:54] right nickos thank you kindly um

[35:58] and as I mentioned like the darari

[35:59] trolls have not been doing great similar

[36:01] with the Amman and the gurubashi so

[36:04] future story we would see them show up

[36:06] in um Throne of Thunder where it was

[36:09] like the Last Stand of the trolls right

[36:11] like they tried to reinvigorate their

[36:13] empire with their long lost allegiance

[36:15] to um The Thunder King but again that

[36:18] never really you know it didn't really

[36:21] pan out for them like the trolls there

[36:24] the the majority of the story for the

[36:25] trolls is we had great Glory once upon a

[36:28] time and we're going to try and reclaim

[36:30] it over and over and over again and then

[36:34] that just never happens there's also a

[36:36] ring of blood to check out in this Zone

[36:39] uh ring of blood has become like a

[36:41] questing staple since the burning

[36:43] Crusade with NE Grand although now that

[36:47] I think about it I don't in shadowlands

[36:51] we had the arena which was sort of a

[36:53] ring of blood where's the where's the

[36:55] Ring of blood in Dragon flight or in the

[36:57] war with oh dragonlight had um the one

[36:59] in the onar

[37:01] plains where is the ring of blood for

[37:04] the

[37:07] [Music]

[37:10] warin

[37:13] interesting huh uh here by the way this

[37:16] this whole amalgamation of body parts we

[37:17] also have uh the one in NEX

[37:21] ramas yeah deeper underground in the

[37:25] undermine obviously obviously in the

[37:28] undermine yeah yeah yeah um Dragon

[37:31] blight this is where they put the

[37:33] floating Citadel of nadamas the floating

[37:35] CIT nadamas also showed up in the plag

[37:37] GLS back in classic uh in which we

[37:39] defeated Kel fat but the heroes that we

[37:41] are we were offered a bit of money for

[37:43] kusan fle tree which as a lich allowed

[37:45] him to come back

[37:50] um this is frost MN

[37:55] cave and a frost MN gave a really cool

[37:59] Quest played

[38:00] out in which um a memory of the past

[38:05] presented itself you might recall in

[38:06] Warcraft

[38:07] [Music]

[38:09] fre why is there a little Throne

[38:13] there was that always

[38:16] there huh um you might recall in

[38:20] Warcraft fre how arus was lured to

[38:24] northrend by The Dread Lord maganus and

[38:26] arus was like oh chase you to the end of

[38:28] the Earth if I have to meaners you hear

[38:30] me to the ends of the Earth and he did

[38:32] and he showed up in north end with his

[38:34] troops and uh he met up with merdin

[38:38] bronzebeard merdin and arus have a lot

[38:40] of history as merdin was the one hired

[38:42] to teach arus how to fight cuz ARA

[38:44] sucked at fighting and uh you know he he

[38:47] saw the boy grow up so when he saw him

[38:49] in nor again he was like Hey ARA

[38:51] wonderful come in mdan was like on an

[38:53] expedition they were looking for

[38:55] something and um

[38:59] arus was on the Quest for vengeance up

[39:01] to the point where he had tried to

[39:03] disband uer and the paladins and he

[39:06] tried to you know just take the forces

[39:07] and go but his father back home wasn't

[39:09] exactly okay with what his son was doing

[39:12] so when uer reported to the king tanus

[39:15] the second like hey look listen arus

[39:17] took the fleet and he went to Norr they

[39:19] were called back by Daddy but obviously

[39:22] arus was not going to let that happen he

[39:24] burned down the fleet of ships and then

[39:26] blamed it on the ass assassins on the um

[39:29] not the Assassins on the

[39:31] mercenaries and mdin was looking at arus

[39:34] is like arus what that's not the boy

[39:36] that I've known what and he's like Merin

[39:40] you don't understand I have to claim

[39:42] Vengeance everything is at stake I would

[39:45] sell my soul to get things

[39:49] done and that's what we call

[39:51] foreshadowing because they roll up the

[39:52] frost MN which was placed here on

[39:54] purpose by the Dre Lords and nul and the

[39:56] Lich King and on it there was um there

[39:59] was like a warning be warned those that

[40:02] pick up frostborn for you will pay a

[40:04] heavy price blah blah blah you don't

[40:06] want this s it's cursed and midan was

[40:09] like it's cursed we should leave it well

[40:12] enough alone arus take your men and go

[40:14] home and arus was like n calling out to

[40:17] the spirits you could take whatever you

[40:19] want from me I want this Sword and the

[40:22] spirits took meridin bum they took his

[40:26] mentor his his childhood friends he took

[40:29] the man that was with him through thick

[40:31] and fin but do you think ARF is scared

[40:34] no he just heard the voice of frostmore

[40:36] now and he left murdan in the snow as he

[40:40] rode off to get himself a bit of

[40:42] Vengeance as well as a piece of his soul

[40:44] was taken by frostborn um but yeah midin

[40:47] was left there and we'll get to merin's

[40:50] fate in just a moment so here I think

[40:51] you can like reforge AR's hammer or

[40:53] whatever there's there's a quest line

[40:55] that takes you back in here um that's

[40:58] kind of

[41:01] cool out of the way

[41:04] please cuz I am so V and I'm going to

[41:08] learn all the lore leave me

[41:14] alone uh Scarlet Crusaders oh yeah yeah

[41:17] yeah okay so another part is that we

[41:20] have the Scarlet Crusade and the scar

[41:21] Crusade has an origin of infiltration by

[41:24] The Dread Lords separation from the

[41:26] Argent Dawn

[41:27] uh darkness and the hatless horsemen as

[41:29] you can imagine scar Crusaders not

[41:31] exactly been doing great but what we

[41:34] would see is that that same meanus that

[41:36] taunted arus and Norr when arus picked

[41:38] up frostborn nul actually allowed arus

[41:41] to strike down meanus but as we would

[41:43] find out if you strike down a dread Lord

[41:46] as a demon at the art they just go back

[41:47] to the twisting nether how does it work

[41:49] with frost mn's Soul stealing abilities

[41:51] shut up he went back to the twisty

[41:53] Nether and eventually came back and

[41:55] meanus infiltrated with the Scarlet

[41:57] Crusade uh these Scarlet Crusaders they

[42:01] uh were part of the death knight

[42:02] starting experience and during the

[42:04] starting experience they try to get to

[42:05] the boats they try to leave the area um

[42:07] and the L King does everything in his

[42:08] power to wipe him out and they would

[42:10] show up here and during questing we

[42:12] would uncover that the Scarlet Crusade

[42:13] is once again been invaded infiltrated

[42:15] by The Dread Lord in this case

[42:17] meanus um and meanus is

[42:22] like you uncovered me did you oh not

[42:24] that it matters I'll see you next time

[42:27] ggs and once we saw him for the next

[42:30] time which spoiler alert was up in ice

[42:32] Crown uh he promised like you'll never

[42:35] get rid of the Lich King without my

[42:39] help and of course we did and then the

[42:42] whole Melana story line fell dead and

[42:45] now you might try to say yeah but Noble

[42:46] hang on what about the shadowlands

[42:48] didn't we deal with meanus in the

[42:51] shadowlands did we did we I don't think

[42:56] so that does not exist so over there

[42:58] that Barry and West Winds yeah that's

[42:59] that's that's meanus that right there um

[43:03] I'm actually trying to think what did we

[43:04] do with meanus I know that he was part

[43:06] of liberating dfus did we kill

[43:09] him oh I'm trying to remember now did we

[43:12] kill

[43:13] him can we kill him I don't remember I

[43:16] just remember that meanus eventually

[43:18] showed up and he was like haha you fools

[43:20] it was the Dre it was the dread Lord all

[43:22] along we killed him in the separer there

[43:25] you go um

[43:28] here we got the Forgotten

[43:31] Shore actually playlist I want a bit

[43:33] more lichi music cuz it's chill the

[43:35] ambience but I'm looking for a little

[43:36] bit more oomph you know what I mean it

[43:38] has such beautiful music that'll work

[43:41] why not that will work uh So Over Yonder

[43:45] in front of

[43:47] us we witnessed the parts where

[43:53] um arus burned down The Fleets and the

[43:57] ghosts of his men are still here cuz

[44:00] eventually arus picked up frostborn and

[44:01] then he chilled a long time in you know

[44:04] listening to The Whispers of frostmore

[44:05] and listening to the voice of nul um the

[44:07] next scene in warc 3 is we see him back

[44:10] as death Knights and over the a a lot of

[44:11] people ask me like noble did did arus

[44:13] die what happened here um my

[44:17] interpretation has always been that he

[44:18] gave up a piece of his soul and then by

[44:20] walking in like the snow of nor he

[44:22] actually died it was brought back as a

[44:23] death knight by nul but that's always

[44:25] kind of been my interpretation I don't

[44:27] think that they've given an explicit

[44:29] explanation to that um let's just say

[44:31] safe to say it hasn't exactly been good

[44:33] for his health and then when he showed

[44:35] back up at Camp the men didn't know that

[44:38] arus was now listening to nul was now

[44:40] part of Team Bad Guy um so you know he

[44:45] murdered them resurrected them made more

[44:46] death Knights um all kinds of delicious

[44:50] things now they too get to listen to

[44:51] Whispers and voices and be forced to

[44:54] serve um

[45:00] are there Lumber Mills still here I

[45:02] don't know I just see

[45:05] boats I just see the boats in the quest

[45:08] line by the way if you're feeling really

[45:09] sad right now uh we do deal with telling

[45:12] the ghost like yeah you're you're free

[45:14] to go now your service is over so we do

[45:17] we do deal with it um in the middle we

[45:20] also have wormes Temple this is very

[45:23] much connected or this is the the place

[45:25] where the dragonflies would come

[45:26] together

[45:27] and uh the black the red the green the

[45:31] bronze and the blue and discuss world

[45:34] affairs and this is where the worm rest

[45:37] the cord would make base um as I

[45:40] mentioned earlier Mel Melos would regain

[45:43] his sanity and judge the world Unworthy

[45:46] of magic right and so called Nexus War

[45:49] played out but we weren't alone in that

[45:50] war we also had the support of this

[45:54] Accord uh of the worm rest Accord that

[45:56] would actually support us and show up

[45:58] and

[45:59] inside uh you can actually find an

[46:01] ambassador of the black Drago flights

[46:03] which is interesting cuz you know the

[46:04] whole Corruption of the old gods in

[46:06] there but they were still there here we

[46:07] also see Kus and Kus is mainly a book

[46:11] character but he is the most beloved

[46:13] beloved of Alex RZA uh her consort and

[46:16] whatnot he

[46:18] is genuinely one of my favorite

[46:20] characters which is a shame that he

[46:21] didn't get much more to do in the game

[46:23] uh he is dead now he died in the

[46:25] cataclysm sacrif acfic himself to save

[46:27] their ex but before that he

[46:31] um he saved alexza from her enslavement

[46:34] to the Orcs at the hands of the dragon

[46:36] soul he traveled back in time to the

[46:39] days of the war of the Ancients where he

[46:40] played a critical role in saving the

[46:41] world from saris and the burning Legion

[46:44] uh recruited Ronan of course with uh

[46:46] Alyria oh sorry with um verisa a poor

[46:50] Vera one day you'll get some story

[46:54] um CR was awesome we also have a hi

[46:57] kigos of course new models in here

[46:59] that's kind of cool so the dragon

[47:00] flights are here you might remember in

[47:01] the cataclysm we fight against Deathwing

[47:04] and we go into the radio actually end up

[47:06] here at the worrest

[47:08] temple uh another thing is this big old

[47:12] Road uh the path of the Titans and Once

[47:16] Upon a Time the lands of azero were all

[47:18] closely connected right like they were

[47:19] all together uh but then the suering

[47:22] happened The Well of Eternity imploding

[47:24] 10,000 years ago uh so I'm kind of

[47:26] wondering if once upon a time there was

[47:28] just one massive road that connected all

[47:30] these Titan places together cuz this

[47:32] road goes forward and I think it shows

[47:35] up

[47:37] in that one PVP ground a let me have a

[47:47] [Music]

[47:48] look help me out here they added a PVP

[47:51] ground it was

[47:52] not it wasn't winter gross it was the

[47:55] other one the one with the

[47:58] orb on an island the Battlegrounds maybe

[48:01] I could see it in the Battleground list

[48:02] hang on uh strand of the Ancients thank

[48:06] you uh if you look at strand of the

[48:07] Ancients um that also has um bits and

[48:10] pieces of the road so that that seems to

[48:13] be connected to each other um as well as

[48:16] uh the road leading up to storm peaks

[48:18] into udar so the idea is that this this

[48:21] big old Road Once Upon a Time connected

[48:23] all these Titan places which would be

[48:24] kind of cool um but never really gone

[48:28] anywhere as far as I remember uh at some

[48:30] point they need an extra raid so they

[48:32] open up the raid underneath uh worm

[48:34] rests where uh we got a ray bust to

[48:37] fight cuz I think there were you know

[48:39] the time between patches or time between

[48:41] expansions took a little bit longer than

[48:42] that and this way people had something

[48:43] to do so all of a sudden we find

[48:45] ourselves fighting against thear and and

[48:46] The

[48:48] Brood uh the dragon raid and here of

[48:52] course the moment where it happens the

[48:55] greatest

[48:57] moments in World of Warcraft history for

[49:00] me for me obviously although you can't

[49:03] see it right now uh this here is the Ral

[49:07] gate and now you got to imagine go back

[49:10] in time I started playing raal theit

[49:12] King again cuz I saw wow hops play his

[49:15] Paladin I was like I'll play a paladin

[49:16] it's going to be great I can solo stuff

[49:18] it's going to be awesome and then I I

[49:20] was just questing through the game and

[49:23] eventually end up in this quest line

[49:24] where you're dealing with a lich and and

[49:26] then you're dealing with

[49:28] bolvar of um yeah you're dealing with

[49:32] bolvar and

[49:34] um this here cut scene started to

[49:37] play and it just it did things to my

[49:41] brain let me show you what the cut scene

[49:43] was all

[49:47] about and apparently like Teran Gregory

[49:50] has done a lot of presentations about

[49:51] this it took him so many crunch days in

[49:53] order to get this

[49:55] done worth it am I

[49:57] opinion oh look at that hi

[50:03] [Music]

[50:05] Teran so you know just questing chilling

[50:08] and all of a sudden a cut scene started

[50:09] to play in game now you're all spoiled

[52:50] lives you've stolen traitor boldly

[52:54] stated but there is nothing you

[52:58] can uhoh

[53:02] what did you think we had

[53:07] forgotten did you think we had

[53:11] forgiven behold now the terrible

[53:15] Vengeance of The

[53:20] Forsaken death to the scourge and death

[53:24] to the living

[53:27] hi everybody and again uh The Horde

[53:29] helped them experiment in order to

[53:31] perfect the plague and make it so that

[53:33] you know it would melt the faces of both

[53:35] the undead and the

[53:44] living this

[53:48] isn't

[53:50] over and here lies one of the greatest

[53:53] heroes like the H lost theirs now all

[53:57] can

[53:58] see this is the hour of The

[54:02] Forsaken gold our slowly

[54:06] dying we're

[54:08] finished No Escape for any of

[54:15] us the Eagles are coming The

[54:23] Eagles I still wonder what

[54:27] exactly Alex stza did here cuz I get the

[54:31] part about you know infusing him with

[54:34] dragon power and I'm guessing

[54:35] resurrecting him

[54:38] but did did it give him like super

[54:40] powers is he Immortal now like what

[54:47] happened as well as uh and this is

[54:50] something that you can see in game once

[54:52] you've actually done the quest um and

[54:55] people have figured out what they're

[54:56] trying to say in draconic so in the

[54:58] quest line um KES and Alex RZA show up

[55:04] and cres has asked his beloved like

[55:05] should we tell them should we tell them

[55:07] what happened to bver because they know

[55:08] they know that bver was still alive and

[55:10] they know that bver was taken and for

[55:12] some reason

[55:14] um for some reason they decide to keep

[55:17] that to themselves and like n we

[55:19] shouldn't sell them and like huh neat

[55:22] all right well I guess we're keeping

[55:24] secrets

[55:25] now I mean accidentally resurrected

[55:29] him maybe but then still the idea of why

[55:33] why did she decide to keep it a secret

[55:34] from the rest of the world

[55:37] right maybe they were embarrassed maybe

[55:40] they were like Whoopsie Daisy didn't

[55:41] mean to bring him back

[55:43] uhoh can you see what they say exactly

[55:45] now with dra fear um people have already

[55:47] figured it

[55:48] out I don't know if the dra fear can

[55:50] actually speak the draconic

[55:52] one why wasn't that used against the

[55:54] Lich King after reclaiming of City the

[55:56] plague barrel all the political effects

[55:59] of this um like they were not happy with

[56:03] Sylvanas had done so the idea is um and

[56:07] we spoke about a little bit earlier as

[56:08] well the idea is did Sylvanas plan this

[56:11] moment or

[56:12] not the question is did Sylvanas betray

[56:16] the alliance in The Horde at the rool

[56:17] gate and there's been debates about

[56:20] change in Choice whatnot personally I

[56:22] don't think it really

[56:23] matters um because the result is still

[56:26] there they still created a plague which

[56:28] they tested upon the living they still

[56:30] created a plague which they throw out

[56:32] and they say death to the unde death

[56:34] death to the living so it's not like the

[56:35] Forsaken carrot when they made this

[56:37] plague um that the weapon that that she

[56:41] lost unders City and whatnot I don't

[56:42] think was planned um but ultimately they

[56:45] still made this Uber weapon and I think

[56:47] that's fully in line with the character

[56:48] that is Sylvanas she would have done

[56:50] anything and everything it took in order

[56:51] to take care of arus

[56:54] um so creating a place that would wipe

[56:56] us all out is entirely in line but what

[56:59] we don't see anymore which is out of the

[57:01] game now you could check it out on Ral

[57:03] tion classic but it's gone now uh the

[57:06] battle for the under City so what

[57:07] happened after this is that the tensions

[57:09] between the alliance and The Horde are a

[57:10] little bit high as you can imagine both

[57:12] SI has lost the Champions uh syvan is in

[57:15] the middle of it and

[57:18] um we find out that vfas the dread Lords

[57:22] who has been with Sylvanas since warc 3

[57:24] and she tested him and she was like your

[57:26] brothers um he's never been truly loyal

[57:29] to Sylvanas and he's been working

[57:31] together with

[57:33] Apothecary

[57:35] putus in order to develop the plague and

[57:37] betray sanas so back home the under

[57:40] city's been taken away from the Beni

[57:43] queen and the horde and Alliance both go

[57:46] in in a really cool quest line in my

[57:48] opinion in which you had to go through

[57:50] the sewers and fight against Undead

[57:51] forces and um cleared way up to the

[57:55] conclusion uson

[57:57] where VAR and Rin still very much

[58:00] dealing with his L gush side his

[58:02] aggressive side just losing ball for

[58:04] four dragon the man who held his kingdom

[58:06] together while he was kidnapped and

[58:07] whatnot a hero amongst the

[58:09] alliance Varian was like you know this

[58:11] this whole partnership with a horde it

[58:12] cost us more than the Lich King ever did

[58:15] like what what are we doing here we

[58:16] should wipe him out whereas Jana was

[58:18] like oh we can't Varan she wouldn't have

[58:20] that change of heart until missed the

[58:22] Pandora uh and meanwhile frol just sat

[58:24] there with saour Fang and he was like

[58:27] like so many times we try to come

[58:29] together and every single time there are

[58:31] outside forces that are trying to mess

[58:33] it up will we ever see that peace man

[58:36] will we ever um by the way the whole

[58:39] betrayal in under City in varas he tried

[58:41] to summon sargeras into the worlds

[58:44] there's

[58:46] um amongst the throne room different

[58:48] portals opened up as we did the battle

[58:50] and there's like a dark voice that comes

[58:52] from the portal um he tried to summon

[58:54] sargeras so

[58:56] so shout out to V Maas for you know

[58:59] shooting shooting shooting his shot

[59:01] trying trying to reach for the stars uh

[59:04] didn't exactly get the job done which is

[59:06] why when we Farm again in

[59:09] Legion he wasn't exactly having the best

[59:11] of time because you know Saras is not

[59:14] reward failure so by the time that we

[59:16] met vfos again

[59:19] well

[59:21] yeah

[59:22] [Music]

[59:23] yeah even worse he was wasn't actually

[59:26] serving Saras all along he was actually

[59:28] serving s nephus but hey V muas didn't

[59:32] know that in that

[59:35] part

[59:37] [Music]

[59:39] so just going to skip that part okay

[59:42] what else we got

[59:47] um we got lay lines that are being

[59:49] pulled into the Nexus that's not good we

[59:51] don't want that that will destroy the

[59:53] world uh oh we got the n

[59:57] Ian yeah yeah dragon flying is overall

[59:59] everywhere now overall so I'm getting

[1:00:01] tired a it uh no rubian so one of the

[1:00:03] first forces had to deal with the

[1:00:04] lichking with nul is that um they enter

[1:00:09] the war of the spider and some really

[1:00:11] cool details in the war within is that

[1:00:12] their leader anarak he actually shot a

[1:00:14] message to uh to the queen

[1:00:18] to nefes and he was like hey can the

[1:00:22] forces of ashat come help out the forces

[1:00:25] of

[1:00:27] aulu and the queen was like nah also

[1:00:32] hinting at the idea that he wanted this

[1:00:34] fight but that might just be Queeny

[1:00:35] propaganda either way she like nah it's

[1:00:37] not really our fight is it you deal with

[1:00:40] it so anuak was left alone and the

[1:00:42] nerubians they fought against the L

[1:00:44] king's forces and they had like a high

[1:00:45] resistance against

[1:00:48] his resurrecting Powers but I believe

[1:00:50] that they were not immune to the plague

[1:00:52] or vice versa either way they were they

[1:00:56] were in a battle that they could not win

[1:00:58] a battle of attrition and against the L

[1:01:00] king's forces where the Fallen are just

[1:01:02] resurrected and to fight once more

[1:01:05] you're not going to win that fight up to

[1:01:06] the point where anarak actually was

[1:01:08] slain and resurrected to serve theki you

[1:01:11] might remember anuak showing up in

[1:01:12] Warcraft 3 guiding Aras around and

[1:01:14] whatnot um yeah he did not do that

[1:01:16] willingly he also showed k fusan no raas

[1:01:18] for the first time and uh I did with

[1:01:21] nickim mukluk like a really cool um

[1:01:23] Machinima for that moment and when k fad

[1:01:26] was shown around in the nas he realized

[1:01:28] that he did not want to serve nul the

[1:01:29] Lich King he was like okay you know what

[1:01:32] I might be a mad scientist a crazy

[1:01:35] Wizard and I might like the devil a

[1:01:36] little bit in necromancy but what you

[1:01:38] are doing is a bit too far for my taste

[1:01:40] it's a bit too far but by that point he

[1:01:43] could not pull out anymore at that point

[1:01:45] he had to serve so that was kind of cool

[1:01:49] um and for serving the Lich King um he

[1:01:53] got the title of Traer King from the

[1:01:55] other nerubians cuz there were still

[1:01:57] nerubians living and throughout Warcraft

[1:01:59] 3 we also saw a really interesting

[1:02:01] moment in the questing where they see

[1:02:03] like this ancient forgotten one which is

[1:02:06] linked to yakon which linked to the old

[1:02:07] gods and it was a bit of an weird

[1:02:09] interaction cuz anarak was really afraid

[1:02:12] of it whereas the origin of the

[1:02:14] nerubians lies with the influence of yak

[1:02:16] Sharon so it seems like over time that

[1:02:18] they kind of stepped away from their old

[1:02:20] God that's interesting here we also have

[1:02:23] the tusker uh the tusker are loved by

[1:02:26] many I personally am not massively a fan

[1:02:29] of them nor do I hate them it's just

[1:02:31] like they're kind of just there um they

[1:02:33] were given a lot more story in

[1:02:34] dragonflight as far as I go in this

[1:02:36] moment the one thing that comes to mind

[1:02:39] is the arus novel where they were trying

[1:02:40] to huddle against the icy Winds of

[1:02:43] Northend as AR's mood also influenced

[1:02:45] the weather which kind of cool uh in

[1:02:47] dragonflight they got a bit more with

[1:02:49] the shark Lowa and teaching calos how to

[1:02:52] say goodbye to loved ones

[1:02:57] [Music]

[1:03:00] um ding different Dragon shrines of

[1:03:03] course because Dragon Blade is the

[1:03:05] graveyard for

[1:03:07] Dragons um before the dragon Isles where

[1:03:11] they were supposed to you know and the

[1:03:12] dragon ises still also have a graveyard

[1:03:14] uh but eventually they got locked away

[1:03:15] from the dragon ises as they closed off

[1:03:17] shop and they were like okay we got to

[1:03:19] go out and we got to help the world now

[1:03:21] uh so they appointed Dragon Blade as

[1:03:23] this ancestral graveyard and then Dragon

[1:03:25] blades you can find the bones of gagron

[1:03:27] gagron was this mutated Proto Dragon the

[1:03:30] first big threat that the dragon aspects

[1:03:32] fought against is what United them as

[1:03:34] Proto dragons is what showed keeper te

[1:03:36] like hey these could be Guardians for

[1:03:37] the world

[1:03:40] um and so

[1:03:43] they had like this origin of Dragon

[1:03:45] Evolution they didn't really tell people

[1:03:47] about gagron and his corruption or

[1:03:48] whatnot but here we see that the

[1:03:50] lichking is trying to bring back

[1:03:52] Gant these are part of his bones so

[1:03:54] obviously we stopped that from happening

[1:03:56] we don't want gagron to come back or do

[1:03:59] we um every hello by the way everybody

[1:04:03] I'm hope you all enjoying uh Story Time

[1:04:05] by the way and all the old gods are

[1:04:07] confirmed dead

[1:04:10] yes and I think this is also where we

[1:04:12] Allied on the hord side with the Tonka

[1:04:14] which is a separation from the Toren in

[1:04:17] a similar vein where on Mr Pandaria

[1:04:19] would find like the fire torren here you

[1:04:22] found the ice torren if I remember right

[1:04:25] if I'm wrong and I'm being very racist

[1:04:26] right now please forgive me um

[1:04:34] right I think that's about all I can say

[1:04:36] about dragon blide dragon blade has a

[1:04:37] lot man oh yeah winter grasp has uh a

[1:04:42] bit of

[1:04:43] um Titanic history behind it like a

[1:04:45] Titanic facility I think inside of

[1:04:48] winross there's this journal of a giant

[1:04:50] who talks about how they closed the

[1:04:53] doors and that just life went on until

[1:04:54] we showed up as the Alli in we started

[1:04:56] to fight over this piece of

[1:04:58] land good place to get yourself a

[1:05:00] mammoth

[1:05:02] mounts and it was a decent enough

[1:05:04] Battleground in my opinion um I remember

[1:05:08] them experimenting with uh like broken

[1:05:11] buildings and whatnot and more vehicle

[1:05:13] combat a lot of northrend a lot of Ra

[1:05:15] lkin was vehicle combats up to the point

[1:05:17] where a lot of people actually started

[1:05:18] to complain about it like I know that

[1:05:20] Ralph the lking is heralded as like the

[1:05:22] expansion which is fair it's a really

[1:05:23] cool expansion but it was by no means

[1:05:26] perfect as none of them are in this case

[1:05:28] I remember a lot of people complaining

[1:05:29] about Tri the Crusader having Mount

[1:05:31] combat and WW having Mount combat and

[1:05:33] then winter cross with a mountain combat

[1:05:34] and people were like then um Oculus

[1:05:36] mountains combat and people were like

[1:05:38] yeah but bliss listen I got a character

[1:05:40] right

[1:05:42] um I want to play my character I don't

[1:05:44] want to just use these

[1:05:48] vehicles reason why the Battleground was

[1:05:49] there strategic points oh

[1:05:53] I think it was the treasure inside and

[1:05:56] the Titanic Vault I did a story upon it

[1:05:58] at some point but for the life of me I

[1:06:01] do not remember wasn't it that the raid

[1:06:03] opened up once you actually did it hang

[1:06:04] on if it's a raid then we should be able

[1:06:06] to look it up in the book A it let's

[1:06:09] find out Ro lit

[1:06:11] King Vault of R Caven oh it does not

[1:06:13] have a description oh man n there's a

[1:06:17] journal inside I think it was just glor

[1:06:19] and loot to be honest the orb that I'm

[1:06:22] thinking of was from the uh Isle of the

[1:06:24] ancients

[1:06:28] a happy to hear everybody I like the

[1:06:30] Jing I love the Jou thing um I didn't

[1:06:34] overall enjoy just the the the ketchup

[1:06:36] systems cuz I got a little bit bored

[1:06:37] with it but I like the

[1:06:38] jousting um okay so here we have the

[1:06:42] Boran Tundra aka the boring Tundra

[1:06:44] depending on who you talk to and uh oh

[1:06:48] there's the orb okay here this is

[1:06:50] usually where the alliance would show up

[1:06:51] and one of the things that I really

[1:06:52] appreciate about this is that uh the

[1:06:55] sence gets to skip the line here right

[1:06:58] okay oh sorry sorry and I always felt

[1:07:01] like that was the perfect way to honor

[1:07:03] Heroes of the past so they would

[1:07:05] remember that you fought in past War so

[1:07:07] by the time that you show up at

[1:07:08] northrend they're like hey hero you can

[1:07:10] skip the line just sign up right away

[1:07:12] and you can start fighting and I thought

[1:07:14] like oh that's some really cool uh

[1:07:16] recognition of what's happening I

[1:07:18] believe that the story of fian plays out

[1:07:19] a bit part here like farari is the death

[1:07:21] knight that was able to set himself free

[1:07:23] from the L King control and then he

[1:07:24] start to look for his family

[1:07:26] uh but by the time that he find his

[1:07:27] family one of them is taken over by the

[1:07:30] blood elf vampire the s lane who's like

[1:07:33] dominating her mind and so fian has to

[1:07:35] fight and keep her free and then he

[1:07:37] decides to keep his distance cuz that

[1:07:39] would keep them safer if I remember

[1:07:41] right um that's a part of the story line

[1:07:45] then here we would deal with a fishy who

[1:07:47] was Once Upon a Time speared by

[1:07:49] something from aora and we'll also find

[1:07:51] out more about the cavaler

[1:07:57] and these are cursed Vu now at the time

[1:08:00] I think they were just cursed

[1:08:02] Vu and uh I've done a story of the s

[1:08:05] lane

[1:08:07] [Music]

[1:08:08] yes heard that story about 50 times in

[1:08:11] the adversary event yes that that plays

[1:08:13] out here uh I'm trying to remember and I

[1:08:16] have to apologize I don't remember I I'm

[1:08:18] trying to think what was the explanation

[1:08:20] for the corrupted Vu here so these are

[1:08:23] these would eventually be given credit

[1:08:25] that these are creatures that went to

[1:08:28] helheim to hela's domain these are the

[1:08:29] FR they were not made worthy of Odin's

[1:08:32] halls but that story given in Legion I'm

[1:08:35] trying to remember what they gave in

[1:08:37] raal the Lich King I'm going to assume

[1:08:38] that it was just the idea of these are

[1:08:40] frul taken over by the Lich King or

[1:08:41] something or just cursed um but for the

[1:08:44] life of me I do not remember the story

[1:08:45] that they had back then what I do

[1:08:48] remember is one of the most badass

[1:08:51] dialogues that take place in this entire

[1:08:52] freaking game uh G's hell scream was

[1:08:55] taken out of uh outlands was taken out

[1:08:57] of neand by fro and

[1:09:01] um he was given leadership over this

[1:09:04] campaign into northr uh but not by

[1:09:07] himself like that would be a bit silly

[1:09:09] imagine that just giving him leadership

[1:09:10] over the hordes after what a year not

[1:09:12] even that that'll be weird right just

[1:09:14] get it for two years at least uh so for

[1:09:17] now he had like a sour Fang to help him

[1:09:18] out as well as a Karen eventually showed

[1:09:21] up and um in the dialogue sour talks

[1:09:26] about the history of The Horde and

[1:09:28] about how they had fallen to the blood

[1:09:30] curse how they were forced to serve the

[1:09:33] burning Le and and fall into darkness

[1:09:34] and Corruption how the sounds of P

[1:09:38] squealing reminds him of of the

[1:09:39] murdering of the drenai children and how

[1:09:42] if and when Gage would ever lead them

[1:09:44] down the dark path and saour fame would

[1:09:46] personally put him down uh but also

[1:09:49] honor no matter how dire the battle

[1:09:51] never forsake it and that wisdom garos

[1:09:54] would take with him into the cataclysm

[1:09:56] unfortunately he didn't take him with

[1:09:57] him further than the cataclysm but at

[1:09:59] least one expansion I suppose um and in

[1:10:03] the campaign like here you see a very

[1:10:04] much hot-headed garage ah how would you

[1:10:06] win the war oh I would just smash

[1:10:08] everybody and that's a really dumb

[1:10:10] tactic and he's like I'm just going to

[1:10:11] smash everybody uh so SAU Frank tries to

[1:10:14] teach him a little bit better than

[1:10:17] that we also see in the back

[1:10:21] ends a uh rather interesting cameo cuz I

[1:10:25] mentioned that Nas was in Dragon blades

[1:10:29] uh and that we were the ones who sld the

[1:10:32] fle tree of Kad which allowed him to

[1:10:34] come back a second round and I never

[1:10:37] really knew this until a couple of years

[1:10:40] ago um because I never really played a

[1:10:43] hord character into northrend but when

[1:10:45] you go through the quest line here you

[1:10:47] actually can find Kel fuad himself

[1:10:50] leading the

[1:10:51] charge and I always love to think about

[1:10:53] the story of Warcraft in the sense of

[1:10:55] like a Warcraft three campaign so here

[1:10:57] you would have ow um you know K fad

[1:11:01] leading the troops on the battlefield uh

[1:11:03] and I believe in this quest line you try

[1:11:05] to confront K fuad and then SAU Fang

[1:11:07] shows up to save the day and then he's

[1:11:09] like don't tell anyone that I saved it I

[1:11:12] like okay thanks s Fang

[1:11:16] goodbye yeah gar had a really good story

[1:11:18] really liked it

[1:11:20] [Music]

[1:11:23] um coast of echo go over here we got the

[1:11:26] basee for the blue Drager flight the

[1:11:29] Nexus and um this is again the place

[1:11:33] where those Twilight dragons went to and

[1:11:38] um Melos ate them got his sanity back

[1:11:41] and decided to declare war upon the

[1:11:42] world that's the place where it happened

[1:11:44] here and a lot of people really hate the

[1:11:46] Oculus I really like the Oculus I I I

[1:11:49] always thought that the Oculus was a

[1:11:51] pretty awesome

[1:11:52] dungeon uh in it's pretty unique where

[1:11:55] you have to pick a dragon at the start

[1:11:56] you have like a tanky dragon dpsing

[1:11:58] dragon healing dragon and another sort

[1:12:00] of dragon and just with the dragons you

[1:12:02] go through the dungeon uh you fly across

[1:12:04] the platforms and you do the thing but I

[1:12:06] think it's just because people didn't

[1:12:07] really know how the dungeon worked

[1:12:09] whatever you also got the Nexus really

[1:12:11] really nice dungeon not such a nice

[1:12:14] storyline uh in the story line we see

[1:12:16] the red dragon flight poke at

[1:12:19] Melos um take care of one of his

[1:12:21] consorts to which Melos is like well if

[1:12:24] you're going to take one my consorts I'm

[1:12:25] just going to force you to be my consort

[1:12:27] now which is pretty [ __ ] up not going

[1:12:30] to lie that's that's pretty effed up so

[1:12:32] whenever you go through the Nexus and

[1:12:34] you fight against ker estraza whether

[1:12:36] the Torches inflicted on kerista were

[1:12:38] revenge for the death of Saragosa or a

[1:12:41] misguided attempt to turn her into an

[1:12:42] ally is known only to Melos regardless

[1:12:44] of his intent her allies have heard her

[1:12:46] cries of Anguish and disturbing Whispers

[1:12:48] of her diminishing

[1:12:49] Minds

[1:12:51] um so we put her out of her misery

[1:12:53] inside the Nexus and then eventually we

[1:12:56] would also go into the raid where we

[1:12:57] actually fight against Melos I loved

[1:12:59] doing the solo video on this one

[1:13:02] um really beautiful fight and we

[1:13:04] actually had to put down one of the

[1:13:05] aspects and for the longest time the

[1:13:06] blue dragon flight would be without an

[1:13:08] aspect not until um the cataclysm where

[1:13:13] something rather interesting and rather

[1:13:15] unique happens uh you know how in Dragon

[1:13:18] flight we tried to like reinvigorate the

[1:13:20] Oak ston and it didn't go anywhere and

[1:13:22] then the tree just re-empower the

[1:13:23] aspects well we had to re empowerments

[1:13:25] before that but it was really specific

[1:13:28] and really special it was the the two

[1:13:31] moons lined up and the blue dragon

[1:13:32] flight had to pick a successor for Melos

[1:13:35] and in the running there were two blue

[1:13:36] dragons there was

[1:13:38] Melos and then there

[1:13:42] was not auros senos I think it was senos

[1:13:47] it was the child of Melos but

[1:13:49] interestingly enough it was the child of

[1:13:50] malos that was saved by cres due to time

[1:13:52] travel and putting his EG in a Time

[1:13:54] pocket

[1:13:56] anyways turns out that that child of

[1:13:59] Melos was already in Le it was it was in

[1:14:01] sagos okay OS there you go it was OS

[1:14:05] turns out

[1:14:06] igos senos a grand puppy there you go

[1:14:09] thank you turns out OS was actually in

[1:14:11] League with Deathwing oh oh my so if

[1:14:14] they had chosen him then they would have

[1:14:16] chosen an aspect that was already

[1:14:17] serving the Mad aspect but thankfully

[1:14:19] that didn't happen and then in the book

[1:14:21] this whole story played out calos is

[1:14:23] picked as the new aspect but they were

[1:14:25] also working

[1:14:27] on in classic you might have remember

[1:14:29] going into Blackwing lir where nefarian

[1:14:32] has done experiments to make chromatic

[1:14:34] dragonflight infusing all the different

[1:14:36] powers of the Dragon flights into one

[1:14:38] you might remember like fighting against

[1:14:39] the chromus which is the clo that he got

[1:14:41] but there was another one which was

[1:14:44] [Music]

[1:14:47] um five headed dragon come on brain you

[1:14:52] can do it if they call that one Chom

[1:14:54] magas then what would they call the

[1:14:56] five-headed

[1:14:57] dragon seov why not they call the

[1:15:01] five-headed dragon sepher off anyways

[1:15:04] was it chromatus ah well there you go um

[1:15:08] chromus was to be the doggy chromatus

[1:15:11] was the five-headed dragon tiamut

[1:15:13] exactly warcross version of tiamut um

[1:15:16] but for to bring life to the beasty

[1:15:19] there was going to be in need of a lot

[1:15:20] of power so what they did was and bear

[1:15:23] with me now

[1:15:27] you had fro who escaped dur holds and

[1:15:30] inside of dur holds you had sta Foxton

[1:15:33] who was serving her Lords a Dess

[1:15:36] Blackmore good job rain you still got it

[1:15:38] we're only going for nearly an hour and

[1:15:41] a half we got

[1:15:43] this but there was this alternate

[1:15:45] reality where Blackmore was not an

[1:15:46] alcoholic and Blackmore was actually

[1:15:48] able to dominate the world so that

[1:15:50] Blackmore was pulled out of the timeline

[1:15:52] struck down aragos aros's blood

[1:15:55] activated like the Nexus and then um

[1:15:57] focusing em and whatnot and so they

[1:16:00] brought the dragon Bey to life and they

[1:16:02] plan to have it made with not cindra

[1:16:05] [Music]

[1:16:08] Goa tiosa she was part of the blue

[1:16:11] dragon flight and dragon

[1:16:13] flights but thankfully kosa thank you

[1:16:17] but thankfully we were able or at least

[1:16:19] FR and compatriots were able to put down

[1:16:22] the dragon before anything like that

[1:16:23] happened and and um the one holding the

[1:16:28] the leash of kosa was the uh Prophet

[1:16:31] which we would then take care of in the

[1:16:32] Cataclysm dungeon

[1:16:35] um dark Bishop dark Prophet yeah and um

[1:16:40] the beasty chromatus was so powerful

[1:16:43] that they couldn't just get rid of it so

[1:16:45] they decided to imprison it and to this

[1:16:48] day it's still a enemy that they can

[1:16:50] bring to the Forefront but apparently

[1:16:51] there's trouble with making a

[1:16:53] five-headed dragon boss uh we've had

[1:16:55] snakes before into like the Throne of

[1:16:57] Thunder where different heads would show

[1:16:58] up we also have mounts now with three

[1:17:00] heads attached to them so maybe we're

[1:17:02] getting closer to the five heads who is

[1:17:04] the say another storyline is the Gnomes

[1:17:09] if I mentioned the Gnomes with uh the

[1:17:11] meches with the curs of Flesh they turn

[1:17:14] into the Gnomes uh but here we find out

[1:17:16] that they actually have the capability

[1:17:18] of transforming them back into mechanos

[1:17:20] now this is something that we did not

[1:17:21] want so we prevented those things from

[1:17:23] happening but this is a similar

[1:17:25] storyline as they repeat it in mechagon

[1:17:27] you might remember mechagon battle FR

[1:17:29] asov um if not you're going to go into

[1:17:32] the dungeon with the war within big

[1:17:33] patch um but in mechagon King mechagon

[1:17:36] also wanted very much to reverse the

[1:17:38] effects of the curse of Flesh they were

[1:17:39] very much like we need to upgrade a body

[1:17:41] parts let's get this done um but here

[1:17:44] they already had the power to do so it's

[1:17:46] just a matter of we did not want them to

[1:17:47] do

[1:17:48] so

[1:17:53] um Temple City again this is the whole

[1:17:55] fian storyline the death knight showing

[1:17:57] up with his

[1:17:59] sister

[1:18:02] um that happens here and then the s lane

[1:18:06] that that I mentioned throughout our

[1:18:08] questing adventures in ra lking you

[1:18:10] would encounter Lord Dilbert thank you

[1:18:12] very much uh you would encounter three

[1:18:14] of the s lane the vampiric blood blood

[1:18:17] Els and they would all come back into

[1:18:20] the raid into ice clown Citadel and they

[1:18:21] would like share an orb of Life amongst

[1:18:23] each other and behind them you can

[1:18:24] actually see the portals that look like

[1:18:27] um the background droppings as to where

[1:18:30] you killed them for the first time which

[1:18:31] I thought was kind of cool unds and all

[1:18:38] [Music]

[1:18:42] that uh these

[1:18:45] beasties um to add to gish's Cruelty

[1:18:48] they were taken from nor friend and

[1:18:50] added to his army and then they

[1:18:52] threatened the children if they didn't

[1:18:55] fight for him there was like a little

[1:18:57] bit of an extra detail for gish's

[1:18:59] cruelty with the whole bombing of fedore

[1:19:02] and the war that

[1:19:04] followed um one last thing is the

[1:19:08] introduction of King mgle mgle I suppose

[1:19:10] the guy that runs around in the murloc

[1:19:11] outfit tries to make friends out of

[1:19:13] murlocs I mean that's that's a

[1:19:22] thing right SCH is our base

[1:19:26] shazar Basin is in a similar vein like

[1:19:29] uro crater and the veil of Eternal

[1:19:31] blossoms or at least according to a Reon

[1:19:34] the petri dish for the Titans little

[1:19:37] places where they could mess around with

[1:19:39] wildlife and see what kind of cool

[1:19:41] experiments they could come up with

[1:19:45] um and I believe that this area still

[1:19:47] looks so Lush and beautiful and warm is

[1:19:49] because they had like those pillars that

[1:19:51] protected the area but up ahead we would

[1:19:53] encounter a where the pillar was broken

[1:19:56] and the undead were coming in and one of

[1:19:58] um cooler quest lines you can do you can

[1:20:00] actually get like um a Titan robot to

[1:20:02] fight off the undead forces and um a

[1:20:06] Gateway between uro and sholazar can be

[1:20:10] dropped here so you can actually connect

[1:20:12] those areas which kind of cool so it's

[1:20:15] all very much tiany

[1:20:18] hello oh no I didn't do that there's

[1:20:21] actually another player here hello other

[1:20:24] player

[1:20:36] hi hot European Santa I'll take a gold

[1:20:40] Queen hello there you can't get into the

[1:20:42] war of

[1:20:45] inure all right I mean there's not not a

[1:20:48] whole lot to do against it I

[1:20:50] suppose it's not your Jammer it's not

[1:20:52] your Jammer it's fine

[1:20:56] um right so in this one what I remember

[1:21:00] most is that we have like an avatar of

[1:21:03] Freya Freya being one of the keepers

[1:21:05] that we later run into in ulir and we

[1:21:08] also have the war happening between the

[1:21:11] oracles and the puppies and the reason

[1:21:15] why you want to go with the oracles is

[1:21:16] because they can give you a

[1:21:18] mount that's the whole reason as far as

[1:21:20] I remember um one interesting detail is

[1:21:24] that the oracles know about the word

[1:21:27] fragar and fragar is a big thing for the

[1:21:30] war Vin right now cuz we're learning

[1:21:32] that fragar are like crystallized Irvin

[1:21:36] that tried to break apart aero's

[1:21:39] confinement which indicates that maybe

[1:21:42] azero is trying to break

[1:21:44] free um but it also means that the

[1:21:47] oracles some way somehow got into

[1:21:49] contact with the fragar and we notice

[1:21:52] because of the exploration azer of

[1:21:54] northr book which is where one of the

[1:21:56] first times actually dropped the term

[1:21:57] fragar so yeah the oracles know about it

[1:21:59] they they see mne and they call him

[1:22:01] fragar but at that point in time the

[1:22:02] only connection that they gave was like

[1:22:04] yeah it's Titan in Origins like oh okay

[1:22:07] um we also got the one and only Hamet

[1:22:08] nessing Weare in this area um Hammet is

[1:22:11] of course the master hunter the Green

[1:22:14] Hills of strangle forn the [ __ ] is

[1:22:22] this uh

[1:22:27] has this always been here I bet this has

[1:22:29] always been

[1:22:30] here I do not remember going here before

[1:22:35] H um I do always like the decorations

[1:22:39] that they give to the Titans Creations

[1:22:41] they're all they're all so very humany

[1:22:45] when it comes to

[1:22:47] it ocean in the cliff side ah cool

[1:22:54] always been there isn't it neat yes it's

[1:22:56] neat very

[1:23:00] neat uh the corway in the middle of

[1:23:03] storm peaks

[1:23:05] yeah the corway is a storyline that you

[1:23:07] go through with brand bronzebeard and

[1:23:09] then you fly out of it with the little

[1:23:10] Chopper

[1:23:11] thingy uh but if it was rough or if it

[1:23:14] was Legion I would have to double check

[1:23:17] uh we'll go over it once we get it the

[1:23:19] storm peaks let me finish up exploring

[1:23:21] this area uh like I said we got the NES

[1:23:24] base here uh the oracles and the Wolfies

[1:23:28] that you party with uh similar with uro

[1:23:31] we also see these crystals although I

[1:23:33] don't think that the crystals have

[1:23:34] ever played like an active role into

[1:23:37] things like yeah we got crystals go

[1:23:39] collect

[1:23:40] them H different pillars different

[1:23:43] elements they could do something with

[1:23:47] [Music]

[1:23:51] that yep we're leveling only by

[1:23:53] exploring right now we are level

[1:23:56] 67 and we still need oh this is the

[1:23:58] teleporter by the way to

[1:24:00] uro um and we've just reached northrend

[1:24:03] so we've done four

[1:24:06] zones it's a little bit crazy uh I have

[1:24:09] killed one thing in my

[1:24:11] entire in my entire leveling experience

[1:24:15] uh I've killed the first robot in the

[1:24:16] uran area and that's

[1:24:19] it the rest is all been flying here uh

[1:24:23] statistics six kills

[1:24:26] one just one my hands feel so

[1:24:30] bloody I am so vow I was supposed to be

[1:24:35] better but I still murder

[1:24:38] them but it's uh I'm zoval Vengeance

[1:24:41] incarnates and um I am on the Redemption

[1:24:45] Arc

[1:24:47] okay I'm trying to learn more about the

[1:24:49] world that I tried to destroy and um

[1:24:55] the wonderful places and all the things

[1:24:56] that I put into motion you

[1:25:00] know you got to about 58 and it stop

[1:25:04] registering all

[1:25:06] right no issue so

[1:25:09] far uh it's h actually we might be able

[1:25:11] to pop in and get a journal let's

[1:25:15] see uh which zones did I do in Norr so

[1:25:18] far we have done uh howling F boring

[1:25:21] Tundra Dragon blight winter cross and

[1:25:22] shoulders are basing so we still need to

[1:25:24] Crystal song storm peaks and then into

[1:25:27] ice

[1:25:28] [Music]

[1:25:32] CR

[1:25:37] um there's a journal here we

[1:25:40] go let me actually sit down cuz my legs

[1:25:42] are getting a wee bit

[1:25:44] [Music]

[1:25:51] tired okay so earlier people ask like

[1:25:54] what's the idea behind wintergrasp and

[1:25:56] here we have Aron's log who explains

[1:25:59] what time has been like as they've been

[1:26:01] stuck inside

[1:26:02] right um day 10 the makers are gone I've

[1:26:06] been left to watch day 10,500 the Halls

[1:26:09] are quiet and empty I thought that the

[1:26:11] makers wanted me to watch the hall but

[1:26:12] they never specifically said aravon

[1:26:14] watch the hall maybe it's okay if I

[1:26:16] watch outside too it would probably be

[1:26:18] less boring outside it is decided I am

[1:26:21] now responsible for watching the hall

[1:26:23] and the outside I should to take on my

[1:26:24] new responsibility next month day

[1:26:28] 20,20 the outside is much more open than

[1:26:31] the hall there are convenient Cliffs and

[1:26:33] mountains bordering it I'm now confident

[1:26:35] that the Maker's meant for me to watch

[1:26:36] this too I hope they don't notice that

[1:26:38] I've only been in the hall for the first

[1:26:41] decade so and then we go way higher I

[1:26:44] invented a new game today it is called

[1:26:45] Kick the Revenant I made it from the

[1:26:47] front of the keep to the main road

[1:26:49] before next year I'm going to try to

[1:26:51] land it over the river some little green

[1:26:53] people came today I've added them to my

[1:26:55] watching responsibilities the little

[1:26:57] green people have built extra buildings

[1:26:58] here now more building seems good I

[1:27:00] think I will speak to them this week and

[1:27:02] thank them I thanked one of the little

[1:27:04] green people today for the extra

[1:27:05] buildings he told me that he'd be

[1:27:06] bringing more people for me to watch

[1:27:07] soon lots of them I'm excited that more

[1:27:10] things to watch the little green people

[1:27:12] brought a lot of other pointed them at

[1:27:14] each other and then they all started

[1:27:15] fighting I have trimmed my watching

[1:27:17] responsibilities back to the hall for

[1:27:19] safety but I brought a lot of their

[1:27:20] bobles with me so that it can maybe be

[1:27:22] less boring this time things have gotten

[1:27:25] much worse I'm not sure what the makers

[1:27:27] want me to do I'm trying to stay in my

[1:27:29] hall but the violent people come in

[1:27:30] after me several times a day and they

[1:27:32] take my

[1:27:34] bobles my brothers are back it turns out

[1:27:36] that they were sleeping in other closed

[1:27:37] off Halls I'm a little bit mad that they

[1:27:39] left me alone to do the watching but I

[1:27:41] shared my shinier bubles with them

[1:27:43] because I'm tired of being alone and

[1:27:45] attacked all the time the violent little

[1:27:47] people have started attacking my

[1:27:48] brothers which is sad they leave me

[1:27:50] alone mostly now though which is not sad

[1:27:53] I think think they want the shiny

[1:27:55] bubbles I gave away I feel

[1:27:59] guilty which is kind of cute how they

[1:28:01] gave a AR Ray boss an explanation as to

[1:28:04] you know this is where their stuff comes

[1:28:06] from and this is what they've been doing

[1:28:08] I kind of like it stand Des is more more

[1:28:10] to play I would very much recommend uh

[1:28:13] apparently sitting still for x amount of

[1:28:14] time per day is like really bad for your

[1:28:16] health um and by having a rotation

[1:28:19] between 1 hour sitting and 1 hour

[1:28:20] standing you are doing yourself much

[1:28:23] more favor as well standing desk is not

[1:28:25] even that expensive anymore

[1:28:28] um for me the ergonomic chair was the

[1:28:32] big spender uh the desk was like 200 300

[1:28:35] bucks or something like that which of

[1:28:37] course depending on your budget can be a

[1:28:38] lot of money don't say get me wrong

[1:28:41] but it is a desk which will last you a

[1:28:44] long time yeah 240 yeah yeah yeah we

[1:28:48] went in there and pillaged yeah we just

[1:28:50] showed up built some

[1:28:51] houses killed each other and then we

[1:28:53] took their stuff so here in Crystal song

[1:28:56] Forest if I remember

[1:29:02] right there was the elves Gathering

[1:29:05] Power and the spellwork went arai and

[1:29:08] instead of asking the help of the

[1:29:10] Dragons they decided to do it themselves

[1:29:12] and that kind of backfired and so the

[1:29:14] whole Forest crystallized including the

[1:29:17] elves their

[1:29:18] Spirits haunting the

[1:29:21] land and I think it came down to a miss

[1:29:24] conception of they didn't trust the

[1:29:26] dragons to just leave them

[1:29:28] alone which was even sadder cuz you know

[1:29:31] the dragons had no ill intentions

[1:29:32] towards them and so they used their

[1:29:34] spellwork and it kind of blew

[1:29:38] up a gaming standing desk nah in my

[1:29:42] experience those gaming chairs and

[1:29:43] whatnot are a [ __ ] are not worth the

[1:29:46] I'm not going to call them a scam CU

[1:29:48] their product is anything but they're

[1:29:50] not worth it compared to the Quality you

[1:29:52] can get and not have to call it a gaming

[1:29:54] chair I had one of those race car

[1:29:55] thingies you know what I mean it was

[1:29:57] sitting on plastic pedals it hurt my

[1:30:00] body I'm old I need ergonomic

[1:30:04] stuff so would recommend yes um over

[1:30:08] here in the storm peaks and this is one

[1:30:11] of the cooler parts of raal theit King

[1:30:13] is that eventually you got flying and

[1:30:15] you unlocked like more parts of the

[1:30:16] story more of the zone and one of the

[1:30:18] things that we uncovered in the storm

[1:30:20] peaks is recall the story about arus

[1:30:23] picking up Frost MN and sacrificing

[1:30:25] whatever it took including his longtime

[1:30:27] friends M and bronzebeard Well turns out

[1:30:32] that murin didn't

[1:30:33] die I

[1:30:35] know I

[1:30:37] know murin was only knocked out and then

[1:30:40] left in the snow and then when he woke

[1:30:42] up he had like a massive headache and he

[1:30:44] had

[1:30:45] Amnesia so the badass that he is cuz

[1:30:48] he's still a bronze beard he eventually

[1:30:50] starts to like Wrangle a worm or

[1:30:51] something like that he meets the uh

[1:30:54] dwars of the area and he's such a badass

[1:30:56] that they make him

[1:30:58] King how you like them apples so he

[1:31:01] didn't die he became a king in his area

[1:31:03] so that's kind of cool uh and we find

[1:31:05] him and we reconnect him with uh I

[1:31:08] believe bran was the first and in this

[1:31:10] time mne was still flashy So mne

[1:31:12] eventually shows up because mny in his

[1:31:14] grief over losing mdin forged the

[1:31:16] ashbringer like when he fors the

[1:31:18] ashbringer he thought that Muran was

[1:31:19] dead uh which was not the case so Muran

[1:31:22] came back uh became a King here which is

[1:31:25] also why uh these days with the whole

[1:31:28] Council of three hammers that mne feels

[1:31:30] like Muran is in the spot where he's

[1:31:32] supposed to be that he is a much better

[1:31:33] ruler than mechy ever

[1:31:36] was so yeah uh this also like the Titan

[1:31:39] Road that we spoke about similar thing

[1:31:41] connected here

[1:31:45] um I remember the gbo area as like an

[1:31:48] explody area cave three I'm trying to

[1:31:51] remember um there's the Vu Proving

[1:31:56] Grounds with the future valkyrians

[1:31:59] trying to get to them and we Ally with a

[1:32:01] witch who gives us a disguise to make us

[1:32:03] look like them and we infiltrate their

[1:32:06] Sisterhood and we get to ride like a

[1:32:09] Battle Bear and whatnot and we get to

[1:32:10] learn more about their culture about how

[1:32:13] they want to prove themselves in order

[1:32:14] to be worthy of becoming a a Velar now

[1:32:16] of course we would later find out that

[1:32:19] the VY who served the litz king were not

[1:32:20] doing

[1:32:21] so out of kindness and War of their

[1:32:24] hearts uh it wasn't exactly a great job

[1:32:27] but this is something that history

[1:32:28] repeats itself the origin of the valky

[1:32:30] has changed over the years because raal

[1:32:31] the L King came before Legion right but

[1:32:34] in Legion we learned that it was

[1:32:35] actually keeper Odin who unlocked the

[1:32:37] secrets of the fu and then with the

[1:32:39] shadowlands we learned that na na na na

[1:32:42] na keeper Odin learned the secrets of

[1:32:44] the valkir from the Kyon so he

[1:32:48] sacrificed one of his eyes to muela to

[1:32:51] the Jailer gazed into the shadow lands

[1:32:54] and learned about the fru sorry learned

[1:32:57] about the valkir and with that knowledge

[1:32:59] he made his valkir he made this whole um

[1:33:03] prove yourself worthy and we will escort

[1:33:05] your soul up to my halls and then hell

[1:33:07] yeah was being forced to serve and from

[1:33:09] that arus the Lich King would then take

[1:33:11] his spin on

[1:33:12] it um whereas story-wise the way we got

[1:33:15] the information is the other way around

[1:33:18] uh there's

[1:33:20] also a big old storyline when it comes

[1:33:23] to the keepers and uoir and this is

[1:33:28] with okay this takes us back in in in a

[1:33:31] very long

[1:33:35] time this takes us back Jesse Jones

[1:33:38] hello there Merry Christmas this takes

[1:33:41] us back to the origin days of the Titans

[1:33:43] finding as off and seeing it all

[1:33:44] corrupted by the old gods the days of

[1:33:46] the black Empire and the Titans were

[1:33:48] like

[1:33:49] e brother e it's that's not order it's

[1:33:55] chaos and they brought order to the

[1:33:58] world they battled the black Empire they

[1:34:00] had the keepers to do the fighting for

[1:34:02] them and

[1:34:05] uh halfway finished by the we're almost

[1:34:07] there and eventually uh the elemental

[1:34:09] Lords were imprisoned into the elemental

[1:34:11] Plains and then the old gods were

[1:34:12] imprisoned into their Subterranean

[1:34:14] prisons like we spoke about J shiron who

[1:34:16] touched the tree all the good stuff but

[1:34:18] you know old gods being old gods they

[1:34:20] want to break free they want to break

[1:34:25] free he wanted to break out of his

[1:34:27] prison and his opportunity would come

[1:34:30] when Saras struck down the

[1:34:32] Titans up in in the space Saras was

[1:34:35] informed by the others that they had

[1:34:38] found anov and they had tried to save

[1:34:42] the spirit where Saras was like yeah

[1:34:44] we're just going to kill it destroy it

[1:34:46] get rid of all the corruption they were

[1:34:47] like no no no no no we we can save them

[1:34:50] we can do it and um so did not believe

[1:34:54] them at that point in

[1:34:58] time he would come

[1:35:01] back whatever he was fell infused which

[1:35:04] the Titans are weak against that like

[1:35:05] his burning leion whatnot and um he

[1:35:09] struck down the Titans first he did

[1:35:11] agramar which he completely killed and

[1:35:13] then the other ones they were able to

[1:35:14] get into a bubble before he like struck

[1:35:16] them down completely and in their bubble

[1:35:19] they went back to azarov to the keepers

[1:35:22] which has been empowered and created in

[1:35:24] the likeness but the spirits of the

[1:35:26] Titans entering the keepers it had um it

[1:35:31] had a bit of a cascading effect so in

[1:35:33] the case of

[1:35:37] keeper keeper keeper Ren from M from Mr

[1:35:42] pandoria keeper was the smartest of the

[1:35:44] keepers and eventually figured out what

[1:35:46] happened to the Titans and he fell into

[1:35:47] a full-blown depression which would lead

[1:35:50] to the mou the curse of Flesh the

[1:35:52] Rebellion all the good stuff and

[1:35:53] eventually def fund the king but here

[1:35:55] nor friend the keepers you know they

[1:35:59] felt something was

[1:36:01] wrong but they didn't know exactly what

[1:36:03] was happening and they got a little bit

[1:36:06] confused a little bit confused a little

[1:36:08] bit

[1:36:09] weakened and that is something that yak

[1:36:11] sharan capitalized on as he started to

[1:36:14] work his Magics on keeper Logan yes Loki

[1:36:17] Lan it's all based on that and he

[1:36:19] started to manipulate Lan up to the

[1:36:21] point where Lan killed

[1:36:24] for him's wife

[1:36:27] shiff if I remember

[1:36:31] right and then loan was like a [ __ ] what

[1:36:34] have I

[1:36:35] done and then yuron was like

[1:36:38] ha and then he had Logan infect the

[1:36:40] machines with a curse of Flesh and also

[1:36:42] strike out at the other Keepers so a a

[1:36:45] for him and an uh

[1:36:48] ho I was going to say Hodor but H there

[1:36:52] and the other Keepers like one by one

[1:36:54] they would fall

[1:36:56] even mimon keeper

[1:36:59] mimon um like the keepers they all have

[1:37:02] this Titanic body right but you might

[1:37:05] notice how keeper mimon actually have a

[1:37:08] mechan body uh who is keeper mimran you

[1:37:11] might ask well if you ran uoir before

[1:37:14] you might

[1:37:20] recall like notice how you know Freya

[1:37:24] has like a keeper esque body and then

[1:37:26] for has a keeper esque body and hoder

[1:37:29] has a keeper esque body and then there's

[1:37:32] mimon

[1:37:33] a this is not the design of the Titans

[1:37:38] a I mean he might have looked out a

[1:37:41] little bit like this cuz he was the one

[1:37:42] who like invented mechanos but the

[1:37:44] mechones found their struck down keeper

[1:37:46] and they took like his body and they

[1:37:48] took a spirit and they placed him into a

[1:37:49] robot form so that was that and slowly

[1:37:52] but surely over time yakon weakened the

[1:37:54] balls that held him in place in udir

[1:37:57] until D Wanda was in prisoned actually

[1:37:58] ran the prison um and the whole place

[1:38:02] dis corrupted and slowly but surely was

[1:38:03] wiggling his way out of his prison many

[1:38:05] years later we would go into nor friends

[1:38:09] and bran bronzebeard with the Explorers

[1:38:11] league would actually enter uoir and

[1:38:13] they would discover what was happening

[1:38:14] with yakon like what the [ __ ] he is

[1:38:17] breaken out and we will get a pretty

[1:38:19] cool cut scene going to play in a moment

[1:38:21] we also have the halls of lightning and

[1:38:22] the Hall of Zone where we actually

[1:38:25] confronts keeper Logan and his

[1:38:27] corruption but keeper Logan is kind of

[1:38:31] clever because he had made it so that he

[1:38:35] was going to be the prime designate so

[1:38:36] originally the prime designate the big

[1:38:38] boss of the

[1:38:40] keepers was keeper Odin yes that Odin

[1:38:44] that [ __ ] up in the sky in Legion he

[1:38:46] was supposed to be the big boss that's

[1:38:47] why when they decided to empower the

[1:38:49] dragon aspects and he was like I am the

[1:38:51] boss I am against this it was a big deal

[1:38:54] when they were like ah we're going to do

[1:38:55] it anyways he was supposed to be the

[1:38:56] prime designate and Logan messed around

[1:38:59] with the machineries in ulir and he

[1:39:00] messed around with the technology so

[1:39:04] that whomever would find out what

[1:39:06] happened in ulir would get like wrong

[1:39:08] information and when he died there would

[1:39:10] be like a message sent out to Elon The

[1:39:13] Observer like hey something's going down

[1:39:16] you got to come down and apprach the

[1:39:18] planet now which

[1:39:20] is when we go into udir and you might

[1:39:22] remember like fighting that space

[1:39:24] creature that like analyzed the planet

[1:39:26] and he's like oh my God there's so much

[1:39:28] corruption in ulum there's that

[1:39:30] Machinery that would have activated had

[1:39:32] we not kicked the crap out of algalon

[1:39:34] and had Ronin not given his speech

[1:39:36] citizens of Doan Raise Your Eyes to the

[1:39:39] Sky and

[1:39:40] observe they deemed us unworthy but we

[1:39:43] showed them we showed them we are worthy

[1:39:47] of

[1:39:48] life as well as the patch for udir was

[1:39:50] of course Very Much connected to the rth

[1:39:52] gate and and the battle for the unders

[1:39:54] City cuz at this point in time the

[1:39:56] alliance and hord were supposed to be

[1:39:57] working together with each other for the

[1:39:59] glory of azero but as you can imagine
