What in the World was TWW cinematic?

Shadowlands had a launch cinematic that was almost identical to this one in terms of just showing off new characters and zones, with the exception that it had a small amount of vague narration by the Archon and the Jailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrGPaVUMBl4

Dragonflight had one too, that could have been mistaken for “How to Train Your Dragon” advertising, no dialogue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj3MGAlcfyo

I immediately recognized Sylvanas and Bolvar, and had enough information just from playing the game to follow what was going on. Same with the DF cinematic, which I just rewatched, where they spell it all out 100% what is happening.

I have no idea what is happening in this cinematic though, because nothing is explained at all and the characters in it are all new ones who we’ve never met except one.
