    What did he do exactly besides stab Azeroth with a sword?

    Hump Azeroth from inside a cosmic cloud.

    Even by ingame standards the swords is massive, taller then some mountains we fly over. Can a mount even reach the top of the sword?

    i feel like he was probably communicating with her in some way. maybe trying to sway her to his side willingly.

    it's not like she doesn't know about the void and those that serve it. it's been a part of her for eons.

    She created N'zoth. She IS the Void.

    That's why we must end her in Shadowlands, the realm of the Void Gods.
    Err... what?

    Depends on her level of sentience, I guess. Since she technically hasn't been born yet, in many ways she's still more like a baby. Not entirely sure about the level of intelligence of Titans yet to be born or how any of it works really, but if it's like Gaia then I guess she's sentient always and hatching is just like a butterfly coming out of its cocoon.

    I don't think so, I think you eventually hit a invisible wall. That and if anything is traveling near Azeroth they would see the hilt of the blade sticking out of Azeroth.

    Are we going to.... deal with that?
    You know how if you get an object plunged into you, removing it would make you bleed like crazy since it acts like a seal on the wound?

    If we removed that shit, Azeroth would probs bleed out.
    Still wondering why I play this game.
    I'm a Rogue and I also made a spreadsheet for the Order Hall that is updated for BfA.

    Its a fantasy world with magic, any explanation is better than writing it off entirely. I had assume the magic azerite that was collected the entire expansion was going to be used to flush/ push the entire thing back out. Maybe there will be a pre shadowlands cinematic but it isn't looking likely.

    going by magni's level of communication with her, there's definitely a level of higher intelligence and understanding than just a fetus feeling things. she's capable of being very precise with her focus even.

    i would assume that a titan can communicate on a deeper level with another titan, even in egg-form. even if he can't directly, he can still speak to her. she can hear and feel his voice on her, surely.

    There are lots of implications with this. There was a video on this a while back from the Game Theorists.

    If the sword is sticking out the other side, there's an exit wound as well, which would also be spilling out copious amounts of Azerite - likely more than on the entry wound. Based on the location of the wound, the exit wound would be somewhere on the northern hemisphere of the other side of Azeroth.

    However, from that video, the sword actually didn't go all the way through - they did calculations based on the size of Azeroth from the cinematic where Sargeras stabbed the planet. Azeroth is a huge planet, which makes sense since it's supposed to be such a large and important Titan in lore. So, the sword's tip is hanging around somewhere in the core, somehow missing the World-Soul directly. This also makes sense, since we haven't heard of an exit wound at all (other than random Azerite explosions across the entire surface, like in KT/Zand/IEs). That image you linked also showed Sargeras cleaving a planet, not stabbing it, so it's not the same situation (though, why wouldn't he do the same thing he did before?)

    But, yeah, there are still questions about the other side of Azeroth and implications of Azerite and the sword, however. Chances are they're saving all that for another time, or it'll be forgotten about.
    3 hints to surviving MMO-C forums:
    1.) If you have an opinion, someone will say that it is wrong
    2.) If you have a source, there will be people who refuse to believe it
    3.) If you use logic, it will be largely ignored
    btw: Spires of Arak = Arakkoa.

    To be honest, I thought Magni was communicating with Azeroth the way a pregnant mother communicates with a child in her womb. He can feel her pain, and acts in her best interests to save her.

    That sounds too far our for me, although after what they pulled with Illidan, it's certainly not beyond Blizzard.

    I could settle for "Sargeras is tired of having his face smashed in by Illidan and offers to retrieve the sword", though.

    they don't 'need' to update it, just give us answer lore-wise
    Cata made Ashenvale fall to horde, while books clearly state that horde got kicked out of ashenvale
    We need to know how the f8ck is Azeroth cool with that sword in it? Or is Azeroth enjoying being raped by Sargeras sword as he always dreamed to do (well he dreamed to do it himself, but his sword is good enough it seems)

It might actually be for the best to keep it there for now.
    except wow official lore states that this sword penetration is why Azeroth is bleeding its lifeblood azerite 'everywhere' (i know game show it only in BFA zones, but lore-wise it is everywhere), so keeping the sword like that should lead to very slow painful death from bleeding

    How do you even remove a country-sized sword anyway? It's not like you can just stick a few pulleys on the thing and pull it out.

  17. #77
    Sargeras will most likely just pull the thing out once we both free and beat him in a 1v1 quest match. You know this is going to happen, hush...

    The blade is much bigger than a "mere country" lore-wise...

Just like when Y'shaarj was torn out, the Old Gods dark energy was seeping into the planet so when he was ripped out it left a scar.

    Sargeras's energy interacted negatively with Azeroths causing her agony and causing that energy to seep out onto the planet. If this was going to act like a normal sword wound, then why was she bleeding everywhere and not just at the sword? If you cut your hand, your foot doesnt start gushing. We took the swords power away, but that negative damage was already done and we needed to stabilize Azeroth. Also, chances are if we remove the sword it'll just do the same thing that removing Y'shaarj did.
    ...

    Smart.

    Aggramar's and Sargeras' blades are now confirmed to be two different weapons altogether.

    he feels her emotional expression. but the way she expresses things to him to communicate suggests greater sentience than just reacting to stimuli.

    she expresses her desire for you to take the heart, and focuses on the heart chamber a couple times throughout the expansion.

    pretty sure Sargeras met Azeroth and got scared or something iirc.
