9.1 confirms Azgoth's world, the place Illdian and his DHs attacked, is the same place Draka infiltrated.
https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Azgoth^ Afterlives: Maldraxxus shows Akarek and Draka stealing a map from a demon citadel on an unspecified jungle world, but the scene reuses a shot of three felguards from Harbingers - Illidan. In an interview with Screen Rant, Steve Danuser stated that the reused shot is an intentional reference to Harbingers.[2] Patch 9.1 added the [Azgoth's Tattered Maps] item, whose flavor text states that it was "Obtained by The House of Eyes", ostensibly confirming that Azgoth's world and the world that Akarek and Draka visited are the same.
No, let the dead remain dead ffs. Death is meaningless enough as it is, the last thing the story needs is to have old dinosaurs like Kael or Uther running around. Why? Because they would provide nothing of value to the story, unless writers Mary Sue'd the hell out of them.
Writers should definitely let go the WC3 teat, especially when they feel that whatever remains of the old lore "constrains" them. Then they should write their own story, without resorting to dented, worn out, 20+ years old crutches like Jaina or Thrall.
Blizzard literally just brought Sylvannas back to life with their shitty writing, don't ever underestimate blizzard resolve and lack of imagination that they won't use the shadowlands as a means of bringing back dead characters because they are unable to think up new ones.
Having a final conversation between him and the BE leadership, where he admits his mistakes and they part on better terms as he returns to serve his sentence in Revendreth, would be the best ending for Kael'thas. Redemption actually done right. Him returning would suck, he's dead and should stay dead.

The internet: where to every action is opposed an unequal overreaction.
We're trying to get rid of all the war criminals that Blizzard keep hoisting on us, not add to them. How about no.
No. He's dead, let him atone for his sins for the next hundred years in the shadowlands.
I like him, but he's so dead I'd rather he stayed bound to the Shadowlands. I once had his head in my character's backpack and I've farmed him in two locations, for the Ashes mount and that sin'dorei transformation orb.
Also, I don't want a reminder of yet another Blizz knee-jerk reaction, which is probably the biggest factor to seal my stance on Kael.
Now you see it. Now you don't.
But was where Dalaran?
Yes He should. He is the true heir of the throne to Silvermoon. The Horde can only benefit from him joining us. I greatly support Kael'thas being Horde.

I disagree. Lor'themar is a who? Kael'thas is the true bloodelf leader. Nothing will ever change that.
Spout your voidelf headcanon somewhere else. Kael will never be alliance. Accept that.

Its not just nice. It is the future. We were robbed back in TBC. Now is the time to make things right for Blizzard. Give us back our true leader. We want and need Kael'thas. Now.
No, he died a traitor to the Blood Elves after he and the wretched Felbloods attacked Silvermoon and it's Blood Knights.
It's time to leave all those from the Shadowlands, in the Shadowlands. That's Kael'thas, Lady Vashj, Uther, Ysera - hell, let's keep Tyrande and Sylvanas in there as well. We all need a break from them two wack-jobs.
This expansion should not be used as a vehicle to bring dead characters back to life. It should be used to give their stories proper closure.
I love Kael'thas, and his involvement in Revendreth has done a lot to amend what was wrong with his appearance in BC.
He should remain in Revendreth as a future Harvester, which is already hinted at in the latest story patch.
The one exception I'd make is if they find a way to work the Covenant races into the game as Allied Races, in which case he'd make an excellent envoy for the venthyr, along with Draka as envoy for the maldraxxi, Ysera as envoy for the sylvar, and Uther as envoy for the kyrian. Even then they should remain in the Shadowlands as faction subleaders, not actually directly involved in the matters of mortals.
