WARNING: Patch 11.2 Story Spoilers in this post!Xal'atath's Role Xal'atath is our ally on K'aresh! "11.2.0 - Placeholder Scene - "
"Locus-Walker says that things are finally secure for his 'ally' to arrive and a shadow portal opens.",

"Who comes out of this? Xal'atath! Much to the players surprise and Alleria's disgust.",

"Locus-Walker explains that we absolutely need her support to defeat Dimensius but Alleria is incredulous at this...",Alleria: I cannot believe you would partner with her. She's trying to kill me!

Xal'atath: We've all tried to kill each other.

Xal'atath: Focus on the Void Lord who will devour us all if he emerges.

Locus-Walker: You have every reason to hate her. For now we need to work together.

Xal'atath: Dimensius was smashed into as many shards as K'aresh, but you've allowed the Shadowguard to piece him back together.

Alleria: I should just end her! Why are you protecting her Locus-Walker?

Xal'atath: That means if you kill me, then you destroy Azeroth.

Xal'atath: That would be my next stop if I were a Void Lord.

Locus-Walker: It pains me to admit, but if we are to get you and the champion anywhere near Dimensius then we need her expertise.

Locus-Walker: I am not asking you to trust her. I'm asking you to trust me.

Locus-Walker: Set aside your hunt, Windrunner. You will see why this is necessary."Soul-Scribe acknowledges that we protected the camp."
"She then threatens violence if we don't leave."
"Xal'atath reveals herself and manipulates them into listening."

Comment by fokerseveryone knows how long the alliance will last,right up until dimensius falls,she steals the dark heart and then we have to spend twilight hunting down her cronies and finally facing off against her in the final patch(i'm guessing the last titan will have another antagonist altogether)Comment by MythodeaHolmesI start to think maybe xalath is the soul of planet karesh that corrupted by dimensius and flee from the bondsComment by skychasePrediction: Xal'atath somehow absorbs dimensius power or whatever, we lose, she goes on to destroy a huge part of Azeroth > Midnight.Comment by fokersI start to think maybe xalath is the soul of planet karesh that corrupted by dimensius and flee from the bondsTo Soul-Scribe's surprise, the voice of K'aresh is heard! He's alive!Comment by TyrsenusI start to think maybe xalath is the soul of planet karesh that corrupted by dimensius and flee from the bondsComment by nsakellXal'atath has a mind of its own. Ignore its maddening whispers. Do not trust the lies it spins. Take from it what you need, but always remember that the dark presence in the blade is not your ally.Comment by CrystalkWhat the hell is Xal'atath then if she's not affiliated with the void lords OR old gods? Where did she come from? Why would she care what happens to Karesh, is it about the darkheart?Comment by fokersWhat the hell is Xal'atath then if she's not affiliated with the void lords OR old gods? Where did she come from? Why would she care what happens to Karesh, is it about the darkheart?Comment by orryerlmao Blizz writers genuinely do not know how to do anything other than "the bad guy was actually trying to stop the worse bad guy!"Comment by emperorcrawli am SO confused as to why xalatath is evil, what she wants, why she wants it, or what the hell is going on lol.

this writing is so so terrible.
i follow wow fairly closely (less so dragonflight and this xpac) and i have no clue what the point of knaifu is.

also the line from alleria "shes trying to kill me"

no shes not? shes trying to take over azeroth with the dragon heart (or something like that?). she doesnt care about you alleria lol not everything is about you.

man this game is so so so bad.Comment by GraphoraXal'atath: That means if you kill me, then you destroy Azeroth.

Xal'atath: That would be my next stop if I were a Void Lord.Comment by HranthaerWhat the hell is Xal'atath then if she's not affiliated with the void lords OR old gods? Where did she come from?

Trash writing, idk what people were expecting from Metzen. His previous expansions were terribly written as well, they were just carried by more cool moments and now we only have friendship and democracy everywhere.Comment by TessellaIs this going to be the usual trope of "We should have killed her when we had the chance" down the line? Because that would be lame.Comment by dvisChakIs Dimensius the greater threat Zovaal warned us about?Comment by JohnTraboltaI don't like thisComment by DaugenDRAENOR IS FREE!Comment by PeckNeck6I REALLY hope the raid end will be something bombastic and we actually lose or something.Comment by Hranthaeri am SO confused as to why xalatath is evil, what she wants, why she wants it, or what the hell is going on lol.
