Was the Eye of Aman'thul mentioned in any dialogue or quest before we found it from the Nighthold?

Did Khadgar even know that the Eye would be there?

At some point in game I remember reading that Gul'dan was using the eye and the Nightwell to open the portal. So, someone knew. Unfortunately I cannot remember where or who in game said it.

even if he didnt, thalyssra and the others would've told him. Originally Posted by Haekke

Does anyone have a picture of it after it gets moved to Dalaran? All I can ever find is vague glimpses of it in Gul'dan videos.

What if the Kirin Tor symbol always represented the eye of Aman'Thul? Originally Posted by Woop Woop

That's 3 pillars of creation lost to the night elves, - The Eye of Aman'thul, the Tidestone of Golganoth and the Tears of Elune - weren't they the ones that entrusted the Hammer of Khazgoroth to the HIghbmountain? I've already forgotten.

That is literally the point of making it look like that. Originally Posted by Aquamonkey

Well the silver hand most likely got their symbol from Tyr's silver hand. Originally Posted by Witcher Arafal

No, the Hammer was stolen by Huln Highmountain from Neltharion's Vault. Originally Posted by ravenmoon

Isn't the Eye the big circular thing in the floor that Gul'dan is standing on that swirls around him? Originally Posted by Woop Woop

Dalaran is coming to contain all the really powerful artifacts.. i don't think i like that either - it feels like simple writing - shortcut, rather than be expansive and have complex roles - oh let it all go to dalaran and dalaran be the centre - rather than have the blood elves have their amazing centre of magic now employed for the horde, and the night elves via the nightborne having theirs (whether neutral or for the alliance) - instead we have Dalaran getting everything, and it feels it's the case because it's easy and simple Originally Posted by Nymrohd

Cause the horde and alliance dont want to work together, so Dalaran has to do everything, just like in wrath Originally Posted by ravenmoon

This has been happening for a while now. Why must all mage races work FOR Kirin Tor? I guess it works with Humans, Dwarves, Gnomes and Blood/High Elves but why must Night Elf Highborne and Draenei be also employed by Kirin Tor (and I mean before the Legion, so no, unification before greater evil was not necessary), they should be their own entities. Same goes for Horde races, especially after Purge and Cata events, why would Blood Elves want to work in Dalaran after Purge and why would Dalaran ever want to work with undeads after they murdered hundreds of mages near Dalaran crater? Yet all mages are being thrown into one bag - Kirin Tor. Originally Posted by ravenmoon
