Make An'she/Belore A Thing

• Blood Elf Belore: has never been explained, is tied to the Sunwell, is gestured at in various voice over lines, the Blood Elf Priests in the Class Order Hall are “Sun Priests” etc. Just need Liadrin and Rommath getting “visions” from the Sunwell, reveal A’lar is a blessing from Belore
• Tauren An’she: has literally divinely intervened in both the Highmountain Mythos in the fields of An’she, is tied to Tauren Shamanism (the one who taught them to Spirit Walk), is considered the brother of Elune/Musha, is the source of Tauren Paladin Sun-based Light.
• Trolls: Sun motifs all over Dazaralor and Ataldazar, Rezan’s Loa of a Tale tablet states he has “the power of the sun”, the “hand of valor” that nobody knows what it is that pulled Vol’jin out of the Maw and empowered him hasn’t been explained yet.
• Orcs: While the Shadowmoon Clan is also probably going to be revealed to be Elune, they could tie Orcish Shamanism with regards to the elements to such a being.

Have An’she be derived from:

• Ogun and Shango, have him be a warrior deity who was the one that blessed Orcs with bloodlust in moments of need
• Obatala, have him be a creator deity who was the one responsible for the existence of the elements themselves in reality
• Illapa (who was syncretized in the Andes with Shango side note), have him be a deity that takes away powers should the person dishonor themselves (explaining why Paladins need faith and self-belief, why Thrall lost his shaman powers)
• Inti, have him be a deity that blesses his people with long life and purifies corruptions (ergo why Rezan could bless Rastakhan with long life, ergo why Blood Elves have lost their fel corruption shown in their eyes)

@Baalsamael-turalyon

As of right now, based on what we have what we have:

• An’she taught the Tauren to Spirit Walk and commune with the ancestors, and gives the Sunwalkers power. Attribute more to him. There is the “Path of Anshe” that is the road that connects Valsharah with Highmountain, and there is the “Field of An’she” that connects Trueshot Lodge with the rest of the zone. Much can be done here.
• Rezan has the “power of the sun”. We know his mother Xibalba was a terrible wild god of rot and death, but we have no knowledge of his father. Have An’she be the father of Rezan, a sort of anti-Cenarius. This would give Trollish ability to regenerate and Rastakhan’s long life the origin of An’she.

What they could do:

• Make Phoenixes creations of An’she. The Blood Elf phoenixes haven’t been really explained; we did not see any when we went to the Firelands, but the Draenor Rukhmar mount is called a phoenix and the Castle Nathria Kael’thas uses the Rukhmar Phoenix model. Rukhmar was blessed with “primordial light”; this is never explained.
• Similarly, attribute Rukhmar and Anzu to An’she; thus the Apexis and Arrakoa would be one of his people.
• The evolution of Ogre to Orc is likewise not given a reason; why did Ogres turn into smaller, more intelligent beings? Make An’she the reason Ogres evolved into Orcs.
• Orcish bloodlust is also not explained; it is just a thing that is. Along the lines of the above, reveal Orcish bloodlust was a double edged blessing of An’she.
• Troll origins are still not explained. We know they look like Mueh’zala, but we don’t know if that’s Mueh’zala’s true form. Reveal that Trolls were created by An’she, and likewise Mueh’zala was originally created by An’she
• There’s a recurring use of a “Blood Moon” among the Trolls. It is used by Hakkar, and it is used by Bwonsamdi. In real life, Blood Moons are Lunar Eclipses, an effect of the Sun. Reveal that Mueh’zala and thus Bwonsamdi’s powers, and the Troll Red Moon stuff, finds its root in An’she darker side

How does ANY OF THIS “take” from Elune???
