I thought Sylvannas was scared of death because it was nothingness...

[Goldielocks]

Well it was planned. Maybe for a year.

Yeah since Christie Golden came on most likely.

But they’re claiming Sylvanas planned this since early Cata. Press x to doubt.

You nerds give Golden waaaaaay too much credit. Like she's singlehandedly running the whole Warcraft story.

Actually with that Wrathgate BS, it would seem she was planning it even earlier. Chances are sylvanas is the one who corrupted sargeras.

Its more like she is that disaster girl. Everytime something in lore goes to shit she just so happens to be near.

[Florena]

We had very little information before. Her going there because of being undead or for being a bad person etc was all just speculation, and we only saw a brief glimpse of where she went. So there really isn't much to 'retcon' here.

[Donald Hellscream]

no one escapes the Maw.

can't wait to see players going back and forth hundreds of times

But we are special cases because we didn't actually get to the shadowlands by dying, hence no soul for the jailer to keep.

[Soon-TM]

So that would explain why he chose her as his champion and business partner.

He probably wanted to troll the !@#$ out of that whiny boi Arthas

Nah, she just singlehandedly ruins the tie-in novels.

[Synros]

Yes it is. Everything about Sylvanas pre BFA has been retconned. Read the books.

Except it hasn't....... All this new info we're learning about Shadowlands, can fit right in with what we currently know in lore. Again, expanding on the lore is NOT the same as "retconning" it. This shit was written like 20+ years ago, ofc Blizzard is going to have new ideas and want to refine some things. You act like this is all set in stone, and it's absolutely not... It's their story to write, so get the fuck over it already.
