Lore

Last week, I talked about several characters that I'd like to see make an appearance in the upcoming Legion expansion.

We've talked about the beings who are native to Azeroth, and those created to help shape it, but what about the invaders?

When World of Warcraft: Legion was announced, the official site for the new expansion included a cast list, similar to what we saw with the Warlords of Draenor website.

When talking of the origin of the Tauren, we can look to their own myths, and then consider what they might mean.

What was Azeroth like before the Titans arrived?

All Elves on Azeroth today date back to the ancient Kaldorei who rose to power before the Sundering.

For all we've talked about her when discussing other important players in Warcraft lore, we've never really taken a direct look at Aegwynn, the second-to-last Guardian of Tirisfal.

It comes up time and again, when talking about the races of Azeroth, there are those races that were created as seed races by the Titans -- the Earthen, the Vrykul, the Giants, perhaps the Tol'vir and Mogu as well -- and then there are those races that appear to have either predated the arrival of the Titans or have arisen after them.

Gul'dan has a long and storied history in World of Warcraft -- after all, his betrayal of Ner'zhul and subsequent takeover of the original Horde is what brought the Orcs to Azeroth in the first place.

When we last left our look at the Old Bull's life we were at the end of the Horde battle in Dustwallow Marsh against Daelin Proudmoore.
