It would be cool if Chromie influence, making Nozdormu more open to affecting the timeline, is the very thing that makes him corrupt and eventually become Murozond

[JabsYea]

The only thing more confusing than this story is the fact they ditched the cool echoing effect for the infinite dragonflight's voices.

15:14 "Ysera, your daughter is hot." XD

As for Iridikron's scheme. My guess is he's going to unleash this "harbinger" he mentioned to wrest Azeroth from titan influence. Iridikron will expect the titans to show up to try and reclaim Azeroth. But since the titans are stuck in the seat of the pantheon, keeping Sargeras imprisoned along with Illidan. The titans won't show up. Iridikron will think "where are they?" And then the Harbinger will turn around and say "You played your part well Iridikron. But now...Azeroth belongs...to the void." And betray the incarnate.

Nozdormu will end up becoming Murozond at his own decision, it is the most convenient and from my reasonable point of view to look at the other aspects, Neltharion corrupted himself in search of power, Malygos ended up going crazy after a great tragedy, Ysera was corrupted in battle against nightmares.

Nozdormu will choose to become Murozond and save us from a great evil, when will that be, that is the question...

Next time in World of

[gruntmasterbroadcast]

Ironic in the Infinite Dragonflights determined pursuit of bringing about Murozond they unintentionally created a closed loop paradox which because of the inconsistent nature of Paradoxes allows Nozdormu to exist in the true timeline along side the closed loop of Murozond who undoubtably is wandering around the timeways until our champions encounter him in the end times... Long story short when messing with time bring several diagrams to ensure one does not accidentally become ones own grand green dragoon grandpa...

[Elizabeth-kvlg]

In my opinion, the cutscene after defeating the first version of Iridikron, showing Murozond rising, is supposed to be much more metaphorical that literal. So, instead of it being interpreted as "We stopped Iridikron, but while we were fighting him, Deios somehow corrupted Nozdormu Deus ex Machina-style and evolved him from a proto-dragon.", I think it would be more logical to think about it like "We stopped Iridikron, but while we were fighting him, Deios somehow connected the timelines containing Murozond to the current true timeline we were in, accelerating to the vanishing point. Allowing the true Murozond to exist in this timeline (Possibly overwriting the old Nozdormu)" which is what we see in the cutscene; not literally the same proto-Nozdormu you just saw moments ago. It could even be that Deios merged with the proto-Nozdormu, acting as a catalyst for the forced time-leap to when Nozdormu actually fell to Murozond. Not so much of a recon with Nozdormu's origins as it is an anomaly that could only come to be in this dungeon, connecting the future with the past. Of course, it's all up to speculation, since... you know... Wibbly Wobbly Timey-Wimey stuff. I'm curious about other people's anecdotes on this.

[RagnarokAvatar]

In Legion and up to now, we never did figure out who tried to kill Chromie

[Papi_Tai]

Calling it now - Someone is going to die and Nozdormu changes the time to prevent it from happening thus truning into Murozond.

[tonyboutros]

Thank you for keeping us up to date with the lore Nobbel ❤ keep it up

[Dridikos]

I feel the concern for the infinite's story line being done and forgotten with this patch story, but Murozond's concept is Nozdormu fallen to madness. So technically Murozond's birth can happen at any point as long as Nozdormu lives with the threat of the old gods/void. I sure hope blizzard isn't writing off the infinites like this.

[PinataFreaks]

A lot of people are saying that the figure we see in the void portal is Azshara and not Xal'atath. Those people seem to have forgotten what Azshara looks like nowadays.

[KenSachenbacher]

Recently (BFA, Shadowlands, less Dragon flight) I get the following feeling:

Small scale stories are always written well (orc/human heritage Armor Questline, blue Dragon flight Questline ...)

Large scale stories are mostly written poorly (Sylvanas in BFA, jailor/Shadowlands and the wrap ups of the ny'alotha, nazjatar and murozond plotlines)

[hunterwang]

Neltharion: well whatever comes I vow to always defend dragonkind. 😢😢

[williamcortespoppedecarval]

I think deios is the answer he isnt actually a dragon but a fragment of murozond and needed a nozdormu to fuse with him

[Rafofshadows]

I want to point out that the line Chromie said at start of the video sounds exactly like something infinite dragons do. And combined with appearance of Morchie, I think she really IS future Chromie.

[iriswaldenburger]

If ANY iteration of time travel ever created has taught me anything it is this: death is inevitable as it is part of the endless cycle that the Titans wish to enforce/preserve/continue. But death doesn’t mean “The End”, even in this kind of cycle.

But since we humans even fail to understand our own universe and reality and its reason for being, the story of WOW can and prob will continue to enfold into another “even bigger” box every time we “deal” with previously established lore - aka “The even bigger threat of the bigger biggest thread that came before we knew” and so on. Until time (or money) pulls the plug. They should just close the loop at some point and accept the inevitable for what it is and show the reasons for it - usually one trying to AVOID the inevitable being the reason for its existence - and continue the story forwards instead of folded into itself. Yes Murozond will happen and will die and is already dead from out timeline point of view. So let’s explore what happens AFTER

[JamailvanWestering]

I’m really starting to think Blizzard ran out of ideas with Nozdormu.

I wished they remembered their own established character progression. Because Murozond is been dealt with since The Shattering.

Where it was pretty much explained how he would become Murozond if continued on the current he was on.

He pretty much explained to Thrall/Go’El
That he had a vision of his own demise and by investigating it to try and either understand or stop it. He became corrupted.

He was reminded by Go’El that all that matters is the here and now. Nothing else.

[charlespaape]

With 3 Aspects being replaced so far I am kind of hoping they go through with offing or having Alexstraza or Nozdormu idk Retire. And we can have 5 brand new aspects. Also Xal'atath being in the portal made me go I really like her

[Husker_XIII]

I love how they say Azeroth is cleansed of the Old Gods yet we never killed Yogg, We just put him back in his box they even confirmed it in the book Exploring Azeroth: Northrend.

[tylerblue]

Wait hang on.
So the true timeline rules say NoZ cannot prevent his death, or he’ll become infinite.
But the death he sees is when he is infinite.
So he has to become infinite in order to die and fulfill his destiny.
Meaning becoming Murozond, “breaking” the rules, is inevitable and part of the true timeline.
