ALL of the Aspects must die. 3 down. 2 to go.

I think Nozdormu already fell. And there’s at least some tangible evidence out there now to make a case for it.
Look at the Fall of Deathwing cinematic, the last time we see Nozdormu in game prior to DF. His visage his eyes glowed bronze, faded to brown. In the new cinematic his eyes, and there was plenty of focus on the Aspects’ faces, are infinite blue.
Furthermore his dialogue towards Alexstraza seems very manipulative.
I’ll have to go back and check these out, that’s a good catch if so.
Wait, are you serious? What questline.
I don’t know what the quest is called in particular, I think it happens in Thaldraszus. You get sent back to your starting zone, with the opening cutscene playing.

That’s when I realised that Nozdormu was Billy Pilgrim.
I’m ambivalent.
There are two ideas of fate. One is that it’s entirely inevitable no matter what you do. The other is that it’s the result of your choices, and there are multiple possible fates.
The first points to a deterministic universe. The second allows a true free will.
The difficulty comes when you take that second form of fate and say “You can choose anything freely, and this prophecy is telling us what you will ultimately choose.” This essentially combines both types of fate and uses mystical forces to tell us something that cannot logically be known, because reality isn’t deterministic. But the prophecy knows anyway because of magic or divine influence.
This works if you’re given a vision through time magic. It doesn’t work if you actually travel to the future and witness things firsthand. Unless it’s one of many possible futures.
I don’t know which is the case for Nozdormu, but there’s wiggle room.
