Been spending my time on beta getting info for wowpedia. Finished all the Revendreth zone pages this week! Yay me!
But I also found readable sinstones throughout the zone. At first I thought they were like, to honor dead Blizzard employees, but then I found more and realized I was terribly wrong.
S/o to Laytis from the wowpedia discord for helping me with half of these.
Check out the “readable sinstones” section!
Sinstones of note:
The sinstone of Irmaat, the tol’vir who made the artifact weapon
The sinstone of Lord Valthalak, the black dakonid warlock
The sinstone of Houndmaster Loksey (we punish him in a quest too), the Scarlet Crusader
The sinstone of Sharth Voldoun, the Blood Knight in Outlands
The sinstone of Shan Bu, the mogu from MoP
Key takeaways:
Prophet Kheva’s sinstone states that she was damned for listening to an Unseen Guest that led to the Legion destroying her world (read: Dreadlord), I BELIEVE THAT THIS MEANS that Dreadlords are NOT part of Revendreth and do not come from Venthyr
It is now canon that Sharth Voldoun invented Mana Bombs
Also Sharth Voldoun would’ve been damned for inventing Mana Bombs (lol @ Atomic Bomb inventors) BUT since he tortured the “vile Naaru”, that earned him a chance at redemption
The Janus sinstone gives possible Dragon Isles foreshadowing
We are not the first mortals to pierce the veil, as per the sinstone of Navi DeRolan
Also as per Navi’s sinstone, the Venthyr hate the Void
As per Lord Vathalak’s sinstone, necromancers/warlocks are considered especially useful in the Shadowlands since nobody needs to teach us necromancy
Honorable mention to Devin, who “meant well, but there were consequences”.
Sounds like Sharth got an athletic recruitment to a university he didn’t actually deserve to go to. Like Revendreth’s interest in necromancy and its distaste for the void, it was likely Sharth’s knowledge of manipulating Naaru energies that interested Revendreth over any actual redemption of the Blood Elf.
Or the Broken Isles, given that’s where Neltharion’s Lair is.
I still think the whole preparations are leading to a new old world revamp:
Accumulation of new assets for the races architectures. We now have human, orcs, forsaken, NEs with the 2 Warfronts + warsong gulch as assets. Then we have everything from BFA like gnome an goblins, troll and more human architecture.
level and stat squish make old zones awkwards and the scaling system and the “chose your expansion” thing makes sure old content will still be accessable
3.Teldrassil and Lordaeron might have happened with a new revamp on the horizon anyway.
Nah, the Venthyr have their own set of, well, ‘standards’ for what is good or bad. They dislike strongly the light and the void. They are biased AF.
It seems that any soul that would go to the maw is sent to the Venthyr first to see if they have any traits that can redeem them/they’re willing to reform. The venthyr saw that he tortured the hell out of a naaru - whom they dislike - then they decided yeah, he can’t be too bad a guy, let’s give him a good ol’ shot.
It seems to be that the Light is somehow universilly dispised in SLs. Even the Maldraxians hate it it seems?
That leaves a question to me: What about Elune.
She is somehow connected to th eLight through the Naaru, but appearently Elune stands against the Jailers plans as Sylvanas has stated.
Also Elune is connected to Ardenweald somehow but the covenants seem to not like the Light .
Very condusing stuff.
Hopefully someone else feels inspired to do so but yes if no one does lmao this took me a month and a half
Plus I wanted to do the screenshots with the game zone as it should appear at the end of the content and with all the Anima conductors unlocked. They change what some areas look like.
M’uru
Kyrians have contempt for Void and Light, Maldraxxus has won wars against the Void and Light, so I think it’s simply the forces of Death hate the Void and Light because they steal souls for themselves.
Elune is moonlight, a dilution/reflection/refraction of Light, probably.
Maybe a concept, but Elune is thought to be above the light. And she is connected to some darker things. Naaru for example have the dark phase, but Elune appearntly aswell.
As there are sacrificial rituals in her name and she is capable of basically be a force of pure destruction.
She’s thought to be above the Naaru, but the Naaru are probably going to end up being the Raden/Odyn/Wild Gods of the Light.
Ie they’re not that high up
Would wager when Blizzard gets around to solidifying the Solar First One, Elune/Musha and An’she/Belore will have together forged the Naaru
If you look at the map of Azeroth in the back of Chronicles, and if you look at the Primal Forces page, there’s recurring motifs in each corner.
This is 100% speculation but I think the First Ones are those things. Elune is the bottom left and An’she is the top right.
Elune is centered on Order (Moon, Balance), but can extend to Shadow and Death down one side (Night Warrior) and Life and Light down the other (Mother Moon)
An’she is centered thus on Chaos (Sun, Extremes) but can extend to Light and Life on one side (Rukhmar) and Death and Shadow on the other (maybe the recurring theme of the Blood Moon with Hakkar/Bwon, as Lunar Eclipses depend on the sun)
I need to do more stuff on WoWpedia. I’ve only ever really corrected some considerably old stuff I’ve come across and some typos… I feel like a fraud when I want to actually add things though. I should attempt to get over myself.
