This thread has to have one of the best theories around. Its making my brain hamster spin the wheel like crazy lol
After finishing reading all the other theories in this thread, damn dude, Sylvanas, Helya, the Forsaken and perhaps the Lich King are clearly “A Gear that sprang off the Clockwork”….pulling out of the established cycle of forces that rule the universe of WoW; which makes me dish out she is a Death Harbinger (explaining why Bwomsandi and his boss are pissed).
And we all have to thank Odyn for that!
However, undeath doesn’t appear to be part of the cycle. They’re neither Life nor Death. It appears to be the enemy of all: it’s not orderly, maybe not even chaotic, it’s not life, it’s not death and it doesn’t have any connection to the elements.
Blizzard has the potential to pull quite a story out of this , hell even a third faction if they want! (Forsaken, San’layn, Helya’s kvaldir, Lich King’s DK),
or they can go the “ditch half the story and just make Sylvanas a raid boss”
Whatever Sylv Endgame is, it spells Big pissing everyone in the process; Light, Void, life, all the Alliance and Horde leaders, and I don’t think she is dying an not succeeding cause, about prophecies, she has already died 3 times so I agree with Helya . And both Varimathras and Guldan mention death claiming our world and a “she” on it.
Damn guess you are right, she is playing for the big Checkmate.
