I feel TWW won’t be able to contain all the story content it tried to sell us. The beginning of expansion indicated we were going on a journey to the heart of the earth. We have a huge focus on Harranir and hidden rootland zone. The Hallowfall horizon has Beledar which is definitely a gateway to a new zone or raid. And now comes our pursuit of the Ethernals to another planet. We have 4 possible directions where we can go - bottom of the Coreway, Elun’ahir, Beleder and K’aresh, when we only have one major patch left, who will most likely focus on finding Dark heart.
Do you thking they really have a plan? Maybe Blizzard gonna dragging some of these topics over to the rest of the saga, although I doubt it. So what will happen to them, will they be reduced to a small minor patches or Blizzard simply throw them into the drawer of forgotten ideas?

said at the bottom of the coreway is the world soul
The bottom of the Coreway either is the World Soul or at least is very close to the World Soul. Physically visiting a location like that really isn’t in the scope of TWW, imo. We’re going to do that in The Last Titan.
Beledar is - at the risk of sounding like a broken record - a big rock in the ceiling. It doesn’t need a whole patch dedicated to it. I’m sure we’ll revisit it, but it can easily be a sidestory, dungeon, or maybe the lead-in to K’aresh. Maybe the Ethereals will crack it open and suck the essence out of it and we chase them back to K’aresh to reclaim it, or something like that.
The “Rootlands” is the only genuine missing piece here, imo, but honestly I’m perfectly willing to let it stay missing. We’ve had enough Druidy nature places over the past two expansions to last a lifetime.

I honestly expect we won’t get “rootlands” until Midnight. The Haranir are a missing link between elf and troll, and would make a perfect allied/neutral race for the Elf Unity Party expansion. We’re going to Quel’thalas, but that just doesn’t feel like a big enough area for a full expac (Ghostland, Eversong… Isle of QD?), so you could slot in a pathway down to the Rootlands right there. Or IDK, make it the first major patch’s zone.

We go world soul and rootlands next. They will safe all the Void things for Midnight.
