WARNING: MAJOR Midnight spoilers in this post!Credit to DarthDecisive on BlueSky for the images from Midnight Alpha!Lothraxion: Nexus-Point XenasLothraxion. Blinded by betrayal, Lothraxion storms the Nexus-Point alone. With its defenses shattered, he prepares to breach the Nexus core, risking a chain eruption that could annihilate Silvermoon and ripple across Azeroth itself.
is that agent Lothraxion? Similar to the titans, the naaru and their keepers are singular in purpose. Their adherence to a linear path is an obvious shortcoming.

They savor nothing more than being proved right, so if they believe they have converted one of us to their precious Light, they will trust that agent implicitly.

Freed from her bindings, L'ura's dark energies now threaten the very Sunwell itself.

Comment by inpariswithyouI think based on the name alone, it's pretty clear we're not going to "win" this expansion... especially when you factor in the traditional hero's journey arc, when things have to get so bad they appear to be hopeless. As such, I'm assuming we won't be winning 12.0, either.Comment by DeihjanYawn.

- A Microsoft logo pops up and says "WoW has reached its end of support date, please consider upgrading to WoW 2 to continue playing"

Or

- We go back to Shadowlands (remastered)

Or

- Blizzard says "that's all folks, thanks for sticking around with us for all those years" and shuts down the servers for good

Or

- Someone was soul-stoned before everyone died, that person resses and proceeds to res everyone else in the Warcraft universe and the storyline therefor continuesComment by selkiesidhePerfectly happy offing yet another Windrunner (the sudden unknown brother when?), but Loth? I mean, i would definitely like to explore the Light as a zealoty "bad guy" just for a different take, but why Loth? I liked Loth. 😭Comment by ItacolomiWhat I think will happen is that everyone dies at the end of Midnight and:

We get it. You don't have to hit us in the head with a hammer so hard to make your point. The Light isn't all good. It can be used for bad things. We get it! Lol.Comment by musicallittle1Wait, so the penultimate void elf is going to lose her voidness? It's almost like everyone said the race was a bad idea and told her not to do it because it would never work out.

Hmmmmm.

HMMMMMMM.Comment by Falzangonna be an aweome few fights i'm excitedComment by SharkTribeI really hope Lothraxion is a case of too much zeal, not him turning out to be a double agent. For one, it's a very bad disguise (most dreadlords are disguised when they infiltrate a group), and two, he's a far more interesting character if he's sincerely a follower of the light. Don't wreck the character, guys!
Also i can summon him whenever i'm in Legion zones so it will be pretty awkward if he dies or turns out to be evil.Comment by KubarianWait, so the penultimate void elf is going to lose her voidness?

Hmmmmm.

HMMMMMMM.Comment by JerhomieIn an even more shocking twist, it seems that the final boss of the Voidspire raid is not Salhadaar as previously mentioned: it is a Void-corrupted Alleria Windrunner.Wait, so the penultimate void elf is going to lose her voidness? It's almost like everyone said the race was a bad idea and told her not to do it because it would never work out.

Hmmmmm.

HMMMMMMM.Comment by dvisChakA dark Naaru in a Sunwell raid -- haven't we seen this story before?Comment by ZakaryyxoWouldn't really consider any of these people Major characters. They're unique in their story but they're not major. They were in the game for a minute 10 years ago.
Lothraxion might have some extra lore to him in the background but bro is just an Legion order hall follower. He's nothing more.

And literally nobody cares about L'ura, sorry. We defeated her once as a corrupted dungeon boss and it might be the reason why Alleria got her powers.. but it's now free and now doubly corrupted? uh, okay.Comment by SinRMaybe Lothraxion is so lost in the Light sauce he forgot his initial purpose and now serves The Light wholly. The concept that The Light can "Corrupt" any force to serve them without question would be a really fun story to explore.
