Sylvanas and Xalatath

[Spichora]

New VO in 8.1.5 confirming that Sylvanas will try to use Xalatath in her favor. Sylvanas and Void powers, considering Windrunner reunion comic it is fairly interesting.

This changes things abit:

Her vision of peace after the war, if she succeeds in winning.
How do Blood Elves feel about all this.
If it is Horde that gets their hands on the weapon, then how do Alliance get Nzoth buff (if it is even possible)
Does Horde player get to choose to aid Sylvanas or go against her.
How does she intend to use the weapon?

Discuss

Sylvanas
Xal'atath, a fascinating weapon. I have heard tales of its exploits.
A pit it now lies dormant. But anything that slumbers can be awakened.
This blade is more than a mere dagger, it is a torch that shall light our path forward.
Soon I will call upon you again champion, and together we will steer the Horde towards its destiny.

War is a living thing. It writhes, it grows, twisting and turning until its final form is revealed.
This war is about to shift yet again, and it will be this blade that guides our way forward

It will end in rebellion obviously

How do Blood Elves feel about all this.

This is before the whole dagger shenanigan.

Well it may be spoilers so beware:

She gets the dagger after the player have found it and release the Xalatath (Female Old God) from it, I believe she has a void elf form and all.

What Sylvanas actually have is a empty vessel that can hold a Old God.

Player is awarded the gift after releasing her from the dagger, which is found by a Naga altar.

Idk how Sylvanas get the dagger afterwards.

[Ophenia]

Yup, right after N'zoth says

N'Zoth: Go... but the blade must remain... to serve my will.

So, N'zoth seems to be still using the Dagger, he'll probably manipulate Sylvanas (or whoever else) through it.

I see, thanks. But she intends to use it for something only Sylvanas would pull imo. Awaken the blade and use it against Alliance and Rebellious Horde leaders.

There is nothing to awake, since it is empty, what she captures with it and intends to use is a different story though.

So, the only hope against the void becomes a tool of the void. Amazing plan. Well, since the Alliance already has a Windrunner able of resisting and manipulating the void and Little Lord Light does my bidding, I don't see her making any leeway with that.

Unless she imprisons Alleria in the dagger, now that shit would be hilarious.

Why again would she be able to do that?

[Spichora]

Well, thats what she said. She specifically states the blade slumbers and it can be awoken. Theres more to it then it looks imo.

[Verdugo]

If it can imprison old god, why not some wannabe.

[Combatbutler]

Why again would she be able to do that?

Because that dagger could hold an old god, so a lesser void entity like Alleria shouldn't be too much of a problem. And it would be so nice to get rid of two Windrunners.

[Justpassing]

She's probably gonna imprison N'Zoth in the final raid, save the world and yell "Azeroth is free!"

I don't see how else things could possibly turn out, non-satirically saying. Things have gotten that cheesy really.

My phone won't open the video for some reason. What's in it?

Lor'themar basically saying Sylvanas is ruining the horde and the day is not yet over.

What what what?! Really? This after the thing with Derek and zelling?

[Spichora]

Yes, sadly! Imagine what will happen after this.

[Makabreska]

So, people were saying "it's ok that Sylvi has Xal'atath, it's only a normal dagger now". However, N'zoth says, that dagger will "serve his will". This implies, that Sylvi having him is according to his plan.

[Grazrug]

What what what?! Really? This after the thing with Derek and zelling?

I fear they are going to ruin our next good leader, for more sulking up to human potential, aka buddying up with Anduin golden boy. Once again Blizzards writing fails hard.

Oh, that is an excellent idea. Imagine her then using that dagger against her son, as well as Vereesa and her sons as well.
