A creepy sign has appeared in Orgrimmar from WoW. Are the Goblins plunging Azeroth into chaos?
For over a year, the community of World of Warcraft has been puzzled by the strange statements of a boss. In the Emerald Nightmare, there is Il’gynoth, a creature of the Old Gods, who repeatedly whispers strange phrases to the players.
The most famous sentence is: “The Diamond King once was now made into a peasant.”
Almost all previous theories assumed that the “Diamond King” refers to Magni Bronzebeard, who literally consists of diamonds. But would that not be too obvious? Wouldn’t WoW be shoving Magni in our faces?
This would lead us to a new theory that this is intentionally a red herring. For the “Diamond King” could also stand for wealth and possession. Wealth that a Goblin possesses. The richest Goblin will Trade Prince Jastor Gallywix, who currently leads the Goblin people.
In cartomancy, the art of card reading that has long been used by fortune tellers in the real world, the King of Diamonds symbolically represents the “Diamond King” – a successful businessman who acts shrewdly and wisely. Since Il’gynoth essentially predicts the future, this is a nice detail that could perfectly suit Gallywix.
“At the table of the master of the child king serves. Three lies he will present to you.”
This sentence can also be easily translated to Gallywix. For Gallywix is a so-called Trade Prince. And a prince is – who would have thought – the son of a king. Does that not make Gallywix a “child king”?
In the latest cinematic of the Horde, it is definitely Gallywix who promotes the mining of Azerite and is the one who brings up this topic.
Creepy Sign in Orgrimmar
The most important hint that the Goblins are connected to the Old Gods and the minions of the Void is very clear in World of Warcraft. With Patch 7.3.5, Orgrimmar was revamped, and now there is a message there. Behind the message is another small hut with a telescope that can be used.
When you look through the telescope, the player apparently sees a firefly aimlessly flying across the screen. However, the creepy thing happens if you wait long enough. After about 20 seconds, a red-glowing symbol appears on a wall in the background for no apparent reason.
The symbol has been used multiple times in Warcraft. Recently, it appeared on Argus and was a sign of the Void. The corrupted Draenei on Mac’Aree worshiped this symbol.
The assumption is obvious: Is Gallywix (and thus the Goblins) seduced by the Void and the Old Gods? After all, he is handling Azerite, about which we still do not know exactly what it really is. Because it could, like Saronite, simply be the blood of an Old God – and not just the blood of Azeroth.
The YouTuber Pyromancer has also picked up this theory:
It is also interesting that in Battle for Azeroth, apparently a Goblin Zeppelin crashes near Teldrassil. Maybe shortly before the tree goes up in flames?
The Goblins benefit from the war, as they control the economy and the production of the Horde’s weapons. The more war there is, the greater Gallywix’s profits. For him, it’s a classic win-win situation. For the rest of Azeroth, it could mean doom.
What do you think of this theory? Could the Goblins, with Gallywix, turn to the Old Gods? Or is it all just a tinfoil-hat theory? Where does the mysterious sign come from?
Have you read the theory that Elune is slowly being corrupted?
