Even Wrathion would be better than Ebyssian, after that pathetic display in the forbidden reach cutscene.
Childish moralizing like that is so tiresome.
The Black Dragon Flight has been defunct for years. There hasnât been an aspect of earth at least since Deathwing died and arguably much longer than that. I highly doubt that Deathwing in his madness was dutifully performing his responsibilities as the Aspect of Earth. Whatever those may have been (nothing.).
Thrall filled as the aspect for a hot minuet, but only long enough to kill the last aspect. And behold; The world keeps spinning. Itâs almost like the aspects arenât necessary at all.
Iâve followed my boy since his birth, and I better see him take his birthright. Heâs arrogant and brash, but the character with the most personality and willing to take risks. He offers a unique dynamic to the aspects thatâs much needed. Yseraâs daughter is quiet and softspoken. Kalecgos is awkward and softspoken. Nozdormu is wise and softspoken. Alexstrasza is kind and softspoken. Come on, the aspects need some energy in there. They need the loud and obnoxious funny one who offers different insight and perspective.
Not sure if it quite works like that. An aspect acquires a significant boon from Aspect-hood. The original 5 had major differences once they ascended. Kalecgos as well. Ysera still around, so Merithra hasnât technically ascended to Aspect yet which is why Merithra hasnât changed in the way Kalecgos did when he ascended.
Thatâs pretty much the whole purpose of this expansion. Restoring the Oathstones is one step in that direction. It remains to be seen though if that will be accomplished.
Kalecgos was empowered to be the Aspect when it came down between him and another dragon. So the notion of them âsharingâ Aspect-hood doesnât seem plausible.
And there doesnât seem to be a reason why they shouldnât. Between the Light and the Void threat, helping those who helped us seems like a reasonable idea.
'Cause that was the whole point.
Garrosh goes to Draenor, he invades Azeroth with iron horde, which was supposed to be stronger than the horde and the alliance then waste the Legion.
And when his plan failed he hid and didnt help agaisnt the Legion. He was hidding waiting for the best or the worst.
The worst thing, his npc fanbase (and some player fanbase) claims that âwe needed to fight the Iron Horde to be ready for the Legion, made us strongerâ. WHA?!?!?!
Iâm kind of hoping Blizzard releases a few more animated shorts specifically focused on the three main Black Dragons. Iâm not sure what Wrathionâs would be but Iâd like to see what Sabellion was doing during Legion and why he didnât return to defend Azeroth.
For Ebyssian, Iâd like an insight into his early life as, as far as I know, heâs the only dragon to be raised by and grow up with a mortal race.
I distinctly remember him helping us kill the Gronn. At least heâs hands on unlike âKill daddy for meâ Wrathion, who isnât even related to Neltharion but who was this weird super egg created by fusing 3 or so other eggs to create him with a Titan relic. If the Titans are really as shady as this expansion is trying to lead us to believe, then picking Rheastraszaâs Science Project is probably a very bad idea.
And as we can see with the new patch, Wrathion did nothing while Ebyssian, Sabellian and Emberthal were helping us with everything. And he was the first to fall for the whispers of the cave.
Thatâs blizzs fault actually. They wanted him in Warlords more and he was hiding in Legion as Ebyssian originally. Then they made Ebyssian a separate character and kinda nudged Wrathion to BfA instead
I recall he showed up to Magni first but that was awhile ago so my memory is foggy
