It’s all convoluted and weird at this point I can’t even remember. Dreadlords were serving Denathrius or something who worked with Zovaal.
And they had the audacity at the time to say Shadowlands closes the first chapter in the warcraft universe. Made me want to vomit.
The original story was so much simpler and easier to follow and what happened to WoW’s story happens to any story that goes on for so long; convoluted, confusing, and increasingly adding elements to give people a reason to care which makes it a mess.
I actually like what they’ve been trying to do with the worldsoul saga as its own three expansion long story that isn’t really trying to base itself off the original lore. That’s all fine and dandy; I just think this plot point with Xalatath is just intellectually insulting and shows their writers are still just as bad as they have been since BFA.
