Thrall’s journey through the broken timeways is over, but the Hour of Twilight is still coming...
In this episode of Tides of Lore, we continue Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects as the dragonflights face their deepest fractures yet. Nozdormu confesses his role in sending Blackmoore after Thrall. The blue dragonflight gathers at the Nexus to choose a new Aspect of Magic. Arygos and Kalecgos become rival visions for the future of magic. And beneath Azeroth’s two moons, the Embrace chooses Kalecgos.
But hope does not last.
The Twilight Dragons attack. Arygos betrays his own flight. Blackmoore returns for one final confrontation. Chromatus awakens as the five-headed monster built to kill the Aspects. Alexstrasza must learn the truth of Korialstrasz’s sacrifice. And at Wyrmrest Temple, the dragonflights discover the full depravity of the Twilight's Hammer cult. Deathwing once stood for Earth. Now that place is empty... And Thrall, son of Durotan and Draka, must decide whether he can stand in that missing space and become something more than the world ever expected.

First, we return to the aftermath of Warcraft III: Arthas’s betrayal, Grom Hellscream’s sacrifice, the stand at Mount Hyjal, and the fragile peace that follows. These events leave Azeroth with the rivalries, displaced peoples, and unfinished conflicts that form the backdrop to World of Warcraft: Forever. We also discuss the High Order and Windshapers, the Skyborne’s ties to the Kirin Tor and Earthen Ring, and our first impressions of how their story fits into Warcraft’s history.
