Iāve talked about the idea of evil Mogu becoming a huge antagonist and would likely fit well in the World Soul Saga that is beginning. I thought I would go a bit over that.
Simply put, the Mogu want to take over the world (of Warcraft!) Their being a titan-forged race to shape and protect the land of course went their heads and decided the best way to do that is a hostile takeover. Seeing as titan related stuff seems to be an important part of the World Soul Saga, I can see them having a bit of a role within it.
Of course, we donāt know what the roles of the titans orā¦well, titan, since one expansion is called āThe Last Titan,ā will be. But regardless if they would have noble or evil purposes, I still see evil Mogu clans still interested in taking over the world (of Warcraft!).
To illustrate this, you can find an āEdict of the Thunder Kingā which shares words of Lei Shen:
"What has become of my mogu? Look at yourselves. You are little better than the savages we once used to build our cities.
To be mogu is to rule. It is why we were created. Our words are laced with power! Those who do not bend to our will must be broken by our strength.
There is no strength without unity. There is no unity without obedience. To obey your Emperor and to demand obedience of your subjects is the natural order.
When you fight amongst yourselves you fight against your very nature. There is an order to this world, a strength that flows from your emperor down to the very stones of the earth. Do not forget this.
Together our voices shall echo across the land like the clap of thunder before a storm. You are that storm!
Rise mogu! And reclaim your birthright as rightful rulers of this land!"
So as you can see, the Mogu arenāt really interested in petting puppies and kittens while baking cookies for the local orphanage.
Itās a reason I float the idea of an opportunistic Mogu who wants to create a new Mogu empire, taking over his clan and working on getting titan related artifacts in order to gain the power to do. In a way, his perception of it being his birth right of sorts.
And thus why I feel like evil Mogu are pretty integral to a playable Saurok factionās storyline. A new Mogu empire would still consider Saurok turning on them to be a huge affront that needs to be purged and taught a lesson of sorts, and with them coming into power, could lead into why a playable Saurok tribe would go on an exodus to get away from them, which would be a parallel to Orcs in a sense.
And of course, I can see this new Mogu emperorās fate being similar to a previous emperorās fate: being tossed down from a high place into a huge group of Saurok who get him caught up in the moment of tooth! You can read about that emperor in this scroll you can read in-game:
"Even by mogu standards, the reign of Emperor Dojan II was short and brutish. His maniacal drive to finish his fatherās work and complete the great purge against the rebellious saurok legions drove him to leave his court in disarray while he set out on a doomed military campaign.
From his perch high on the cliffs overlooking the Krasarang Wilds he oversaw the slow clear-cutting of the jungle, the establishment of Dojanni Dungeons, and the gradual genocide of the saurok race.
What he didnāt expect was for the remains of the saurok fifth and seventh legions to scale the enormity of the cliffs in the dead of night, ambushing his imperial pavilion from the Valley of Four Winds and forcing him over the edge. His body was never found, and the resulting disarray in the capitol left the empire in chaos for over two years while the saurok melted back into the wilds and disappearedā¦"
I can almost see that being the ending raid cinematic in a way.
Anyway, itās why Iāve been harping on evil Mogu being capable of being a huge antagonist and leading to why Saurok would be open to getting help from others and decided that being part of something like the Horde would be pretty awesome when it comes to the survival of their race. And when it comes to the Horde, it fits very well as a storyline for them.
Weāll see what actually happens in the World Soul Saga as we continue onward, but Iāll still hope for the best for Saurok during and after it!
