Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

I'm pretty sure they are one and the same character. The Scarlets currently lack a singular "leader" that could stand toe to toe next to Turalyon and Yrel as leaders of the Light, so this "Royal Son" would actually be Calia's daughter either brainwashed or forced into being a masculine-pretending paladin.
Points if she is designed to look like "Evil Anduin"!
Calia never mentioned a secret identity when she told the story, you'd think she would mention such a rather important point.
Furthermore its very much implied he knew about her status, hence the secrecy around their relationship, the begging a priestess in secret to marry them and trying to get the child out of Lordaeron when she finally told her mother.
Even if Blizzard does take that route, Bolvar not recognizing her is one thing but she would absolutely recognize him by name alone.
And in that case, Calia stood right next to Taelia in Oribos.
If for whatever reason she wouldn't come out to Bolvar, surely she would say something when she meets Bolvars, and therefore her own, daughter?

You know it. Tinkers will get all the robot skins they want.

If I ever touched shaman with a ten foot pole I'd be pretty depressed on the cosmetic field. Nowadays everyone can be something cool, like a hippo, whereas you're stuck with a wolf form who's first iteration is almost old enough to vote.

They also didnt really speak at all, and then Calia disappeared from the story completely. It's not unthinkable it was planned to have a big reveal somewhere in the story that just never ended up happening.
Until Calia and/or Bolvar state conclusively who the missing person is in their lives the obvious choice will always be that Talia is Calias daughter.

I guess Blizzard has been slightly better in adding more Shammy transformations, but still extremely few considering.
One does have to wonder what will happen to all the Soulshape forms from SL after the expansion ends though. Sure they will still be useable in Shadowlands content, so there is that minor use. But compared to how incredibly varied and complex the Soulshape gathering minigame is I am kidna surprised we have not already gotten a toy or similar that let's us transform into any collected appearance.
The world revamp dream will never die!
I never played Cataclysm when it was live. So I guess I got to skip the end-game drought. Which means I get to be thoroughly impressed by the humongous amount of content that expansion provided. WoW would be a much smaller and emptier place if it wasn't for Cataclysm.
The problem is that Blizzard only invented a way to rehash the levelling content into end-game content during Legion by turning them into World Quests and Mythics.
I feel Blizzard still owes their older content that same treatment. *All* of the zones, up to Warlords of Draenor turned into World Quest areas, and see maybe two or three instances per expansion into a Mythic Plus. Legion, BfA and Shadowlands merely require their levels scaled as they're already good to go.
It's a high amount of work, but it's also a risk-free commitment on Blizzard's end. They don't need to experiment, they don't need to put any R&D into new systems. Merely take what worked in their last few expansions and retroactively apply it to everything else. It gives the player endlessly self-replenishing content, more than they'll ever be able to exhaust in a lifetime. Something that keeps people subscribed permanently.
Cool. My overall point is that people pining for a revamp seem to forget that Cataclysm also had 7 new zones, and 2 new zones for the two new races. In other words, if we do get a revamp, we’re still getting a new continent/landmass.
Personally, I’m Team Steamscale; The Undermine/Dragon Isle expansion.
Maybe I’ll make a fancy signature tag like everyone else…..

No, I get what you mean. I feel like back in Vanilla they should have taken the time to chart out all the various landmasses, and if they wound up making them bigger at some point or shifting them around a little, or even adding a few more, they could have an explanation for it like, "Oh, the maps were a little inaccurate." or what have you. They never did that though, so now they're just plopping things down out of nowhere and it feels silly. At list Pandaria made sense, it was literally masked by magical mists keeping it from being detected or found.
