    Mardum was the world that Sargeras used to imprison demons before he turned evil. Whether or not it is in the TN is immaterial because it is completely drenched in fel energy and has been for a million years or so.

    Forgive my lacking knowledge here but from where do we know that its the fel energy that makes them permanently killable

    World of Warcraft: Chronicle volume 1 page 23 (see OP).

    It has always been common knowledge before Chronicle, but now it's canonically confirmed.

    Actually, what I find more curious is that you are sacrificed in order to use your soul as fuel to power the portal. You do just that, so how is there any soul left to reclaim the body?

    The bolded part is new to me.

    Jeez I hadn't event thought of that.
    Maybe the soul was powerful enough to power it and still be capable of reviving?

    Well it says so in World of Warcraft: Chronicle volume 1, which right now is about as canon as it gets.

    What worse is that you not just sacrifice your life, your soul is used to power that gate. So even with immortal soul you just should not be resurrected.

    Actually, no, it doesn't say so in Chronicle. It said that you can only kill them in the Nether, or places saturated with the Nether / Burning Legion's energies ("The only way to kill demons permanently was to slay them in the Nether, or in areas of the Great Dark Beyond saturated with that volatile realm's energies" - Chronicle). Fel is one of the Nether's (or the Legion's) energies, but it wasn't stated anywhere that the Nether's energies consist of ONLY fel or the Legion only used Fel energy (there is, for example, arcane there too). For all we know, Nether's energies might be a mixture of both arcane and fel.

    Also, it's also questionable if the Mardum in Legion is still considered "utterly saturated" with Fel. It's true that it was filled with Fel before Sargeras shattered it. However, after Sargeras shattered it, it wouldn't be too far off if the Fel energy dissipated somewhat. After all, those fel energy already gave off a blast big enough to consume Sargeras and open a hole in the universe.

    Simple theory - your soul was powerful enough that powering the gate didn't take entirely of it. There were enough left over so it could reform itself.

    Mardum is not in the Nether, it was specifically designed by Sargeras to keep demons from reforming in the Nether and instead to reform in their prisons.

    It was actually specifically designed by Sargeras as a pocket dimension in the Nether. It only materialized in the physical universe much later, after it overflowed with Fel energy.

Known as Mardum, the Plane of Banishment, it would act as an impregnable pocket dimension from which nothing could escape.

    Again, being in the Twisting Nether is NOT the only situation where a demon can be killed permanently...

    It's almost as if people don't read the original post.
