[MAJOR SPOILERS] If Tears of Elune is a Pillar of Creation...

[JTHMRulez1]

It would be priceless if she's just a machine with a tape in loop repeating comforting things to "answer" prayers.

Elune Ex Machina.

[Gamevizier]

What if Elune is both? but of one of Azeroth's moon's?

If a planet can be a titan, why can't a moon be? like it's smaller dwarf version or a daughter of sorts- what if she's a whole type of other being most including the older titans were not aware of could exist, but they do in relation to the main planet. They also mature fast because they're smaller whiles the larger parent it's vastness takes a longer to fully awake. Or maybe they mature differently in this relationship - blizzard may have yet to define it.

Could be some titans have extra extensions, that it's not just them that are alive but their moons, and Azeroth is doubly rare in that He has a moon female companion , and she's already conscious and awake and has been re-invigorating the spirit of Azeroth and all those who were born from him. She is the reason why the old god's curse of flesh did not corrupt the titan constructs to madness but instead were subvertedly linked to Azeroth and instead imbued with his spirit which kept them in balance.

Maybe she is the one also that gave titan keepers the idea to craft the dream to nurture the soul of Azeroth in the aftermath of the old god infestation.

Maybe Elune is an extension of Azeroth, something about some titans multiplying so in a sense she is sort of like a daughter though connected to her father. The old gods arrival on Azeroth could have set off a reaction - maybe Elune is the one that made it possible for Aggrammar to sense Azeroth, amplifying the light echo of the planet to get help.

Actually I'm really down with this theory. We know that shards of light are scattered across the galaxy, These shards have over time formed into sentient beings such as the Naaru. The titans are world souls that are in deep slumber, awaiting to be awakened.

Elune can be a unique being, a moon world-soul created from the light shards and orbiting the most powerful world-soul discovered. that would explain her connection to the moon. and that would also explain why she has the power to heal her worshipers when she's called onto.

Blizzard has mentioned that Elune is the closest thing to a diety in WoW universe. so that's why I'm saying she can unique, and not under any known category (Titan , Watcher , Old God, etc) .

Yes, but what is Freya besides just another aspect of Eonar? They're all connected. I'm just saying that Elune is probably just some greater remnant of Eonar.

Everything she is. Where did you get the idea that she is an aspect of Eonar at all? Yes, they were connected, but in the same sense that computers are connected over a network, not as parts of the same being.

And if they were, both Freya and Elune would be dead now.

Simple. The Pillars of Creation and the Discs of Norgannon represent all of the Titans, with Eonar switch with Elune for some reason. This alone would be highly suggestive.

Now, you're a bit mistaken about how dead the Titans are. While they failed to properly possess their Keepers when they tried to send their souls through to them, their souls weren't totally obliterated or anything. They just weren't able to quite take hold properly, and were weakened and dormant.

Anyhow, other suggestive bits are how Elune seems to be involved with the Green Dragonflight, since Ysera raised her son and she makes her will known to redeem Eranikus or cry over Ysera. Other than the Green Dragonflight, she's been most involved with the Wild Gods like Malorne or Goldrinn. All of this suggests that she has some ties to the Emerald Dream.

So, I say Elune is likely related to Eonar.

what if elune is eonar

[KrakHed]

what if elune is eonar

Or some remnant or reflection of her, one which may have changed significantly over the ages due to interacting with various forces on Azeroth. Perhaps a bit of her consciousness began making use of the Well of Eternity to regenerate. Who knows?

EDIT: We've seen that the Titan souls are separable from the Keepers they tried to possess, so I think it's possible that during some point in time when Freya was messing about with the waters of the Well of Eternity, the resulting Wild Gods, and the Emerald Dream, the remnant spirit of Eonar may have gotten out.

The Emerald Dream is a Spirit World after all and capable of serving as an afterlife for Druids, so it might mitigate the need to rely upon a host.

This is a very smart thing to point out! Pretty similar even with names... and Blizz loves to play around with words

"Elune" is just another name referring to Light, or precisely to what the Night Elves experienced of Light, a force existing in Nature and Life.
A force greater than Titans, who are indirectly bearer of Light (they are based on Arcanes).
Light is in their DNA, every form of life that evolved through or with arcane is Light sensitive. Light can talk to them.
I don't mean "Elune" is not real, it's a name related to Night Elves. When Dark Trolls stayed on the Well Of Eternity shores, they got infused with Arcanes Magic.
Their DNA changed, transforming them into Night Elves. First they heard the voice of a greater force/form of life and they worshipped it.
Then they tried to master the power of the WoE, learning Arcanes Magic.

Humans are Vrykuls descendants, creations of Titans, Light is into their DNA too.
Dwarves & Gnomes too.
Blood Elves were Night Elves.
Draeneis mastered the Arcanes (and we don't know that much from Argus Lore) + Naaru talked to Velenn because of his mastery of Light.
Worgens were humans.
Forsakens were humans.

Taurens relation is a little weirder, they may have affinities with Light because of their spiritual relation with Nature.
Maybe they refer to it using "Sun" because they were walking during the Day, using Sun as a guide.
Trolls have a different experience of Light, more twisted than other races, like Taurens they must have found it through the Nature, but as they found an Old God guardian it's a little bit shadowly.

Orcs are not related to Light (no Priests no Paladins) because Draenor (even if a Titan came on this planet).

So that's my point, Elune is nobody precisely, but since many characters related to Light (directly or not) have heard a Naaru speaking to them, I bet the "Elune" experience is not a Titan, but a(n Elder) Naaru.

And what's make something a god or deity is not their power, but the power we give to it. So that means "Elune" might not be that strong.

Yep, but I expect we're not meant to know this yet. While much misinformation has spread, the souls of the Titans weren't actually entirely destroyed. It's possible that it'd be a major reveal if it turns out that she's the remains of Eonar's spirit that have coalesced and regenerated to a degree.

Smart Theory, but we know that Elune had actually a son and that she is a zoophile.

Wrathion refers to Deathwing as his father too, doesn't mean he's one.
