New Dragonflight book.. another retcon? UPDATE: Confirmed as a mistake by Danuser

Just came across THIS on Wowhead. I hope this isn’t true, or it’s yet another example of this writing team wanting to just ruin everything that’s come before to push their own fanfiction.

I hope that’s a mistake or typo or something. I really do.

EDIT Has been confirmed by Danuser as a mistake. Put the pitchforks down (for now…) everyone!

This has to be a mistake. It is insultingly bad if true.

Bronze Dragon, Khadgar?

I beg your actual pardon

Am I reading this right? They want to suddenly say Khadgar is a Bronze Dragon in disguise?

Oh please no, that would completely kill his character.

Pressing X to doubt multiple times.

I mean this is also a line from that description:

Like, why are you asking me questions, Amazon?

Smells fake.

Welcome to blizzard where lore means nothing and we can rewrite years of lore whenever we feel like it. Now buy a 6 month sub, sit down and shut up, and take whatever we decide to give you.

I really hope it’s like a bad translation .

It’s an Amazon blurb, so it could very well be a mistake. God knows Amazon messes up enough.

There’s just no way. I wish WoWhead would do some actual investigating before they post this crap. Now the whole community is going to be in uproar for weeks until Blizzard gets around to correcting it.

Someone has put forth the idea that it could be a placeholder name to avoid spoiling something about Dragonflight itself.

Unironic REEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Danuser has gone too far. Too far this time.

“Khadgar of the bronze dragonflight”

What the actual frick is this?

HE’S NOT A BRONZE DRAGON WTF??? HE WAS AN APPRENTICE OF MEDIVH, A HUMAN MAGE!

Dear lord this better be a typo!

On the one hand: they are the writing team and in control of the story. So they can do what they want, its not fanfic from them.

On the other hand, the slightly bigger hand: if that leak is true its the stupidest thing ive seen since they made illidan a good guy. ******* was annoying enough but to make him * ****** all along is just stupid as hell.

I hope this is fake.

*'s are to censor spoilers not swears.

It is likely just a misprint.

Thank god!

Well, think I’ve had my recommended dose of shock for the day even if it was quickly corrected.
