Makrura underground kingdom of Mak'aru in the Great Sea?

[RedFenix]

With a strong chance we might see N'Zoth this expansion and it being confirmed we'll finally deal with Azshara and her Naga before the expansions end, how much would you like to see a sprawling underground cavern network of coral reef structures to represent the Makrura empire with the capital city of Mak'aru being an end-game dungeon/raid?

Perhaps we'll find out that the Makrura were the ancient Aqir remnants hiding in the non-collapsed portions of the Azj'Aqir Empire near Zandalar that got sucked down under the Great Sea during The Sundering. Afterwards, they were soon blessed with hyper-evolved bodies able to withstand the crushing pressure of the Great Sea thanks to N'Zoth (very similar to the Naga), and have worshiped the God of the Deep ever since. Their buildings would look very similar to the animated Silithid hive structures, but made out of coral reef instead.

Just some rough concepts of how I envision it looking. What do you guys think? Would you like this concept to manifest in Battle for Azeroth?

Aren't makruras like super dumb ? I doubt they have any kingdom, anywhere.

Perhaps the Mak'rura we've seen around the world are similar in the Aqir hierarchy as the Silithid are to the Qiraji. Perhaps there is a smarter, more powerful Mak'rura upper class that barely ventures outside of Mak'aru. That's my hope, anyway.

Pretty cool concepts there.

I mean they kinda have tentacl-ey faces. And tbh N'zoth having the theme of "claws" where C'thun had "eyes", Yogg had "mouths" and Ysaraj had "heads" makes thematic sense tbh.

It'd also make sense for N'zoth's boss fight involve something to do with lungs, since C'thun had "stomach", Yogg had "brain" and Ysaraj had "heart".

They'll probably be used more as second class citizens allied with the Naga.

I actually theorized that the Naga and Mak'rura have been engaged in a proxy war for the past 10,000 years, which is why the Naga haven't launched a full scale invasion of the surface yet. It wouldn't be the first time that servants of the Old Gods battled with each other for dominance and favor of their dark overlords.

Look like crab, taste like people.
