Lore Watch Podcast: The Sunwell: its origins, its past, and its parallels

As we head into Midnight, we know this act begins with a direct assault on the Sunwell. But what is the Sunwell? Our Loremasters Joe and Matt discuss the history of Xal’atath’s next target. The Sunwell isn’t even the only well of power to be found on Azeroth — they discuss the Well of Eternity, and the Nightwell, too.

This isn’t the first time the Sunwell has been directly assaulted — and hopefully, it won’t be the last, if our champions have anything to say about it. (Which is to say that hopefully it will be around to be attacked again in the future.)
