Patch 8.2 of World of Warcraft has brought a new cinematic that takes place during the war campaign. It reveals what happens to many heroes.
Patch 8.2 Azshara’s Rise has been live since yesterday (June 26) and brought a lot of new content. A particularly cool cinematic was there to introduce Nazjatar, but the patch had another video in store. It takes place during the war campaign and could have far-reaching consequences for the Horde and Alliance in World of Warcraft.
Spoiler warning: If you don’t want to know how the story of Jaina, Thrall, Baine, and Saurfang continues, you should not read further. You have been warned.
When does the cinematic take place? The video is played at the end of the current war campaign. After the players, along with Jaina, Thrall, Saurfang, and Shaw, conducted the rescue of the Tauren Baine, they flee from Orgrimmar and find themselves on the hills of Mulgore. There, a longer conversation takes place.
What can be seen in the cinematic? In the video, mainly Thrall and Jaina discuss the next steps. They fear that Sylvanas will now take revenge and burn down Thunder Bluff just as she did with Teldrassil, like she did with Teldrassil.
Jaina then reminds Thrall that they have fought together before to defend Hyjal – that was in Warcraft 3 when the Burning Legion attacked. No one got past them there.
Thrall then becomes somewhat angry and explains that the Horde and Alliance have come to this crossroads several times. They have repeatedly tried to work together, only for it to fall apart again. When asked what is “different this time,” Jaina replies: “We.”
What does that mean? The video currently allows for many possible interpretations. However, it seems that Thrall and Jaina (and thus also Baine and Saurfang) are considering putting an end to the war between the Horde and Alliance once and for all. However, Sylvanas must be removed, and a peaceful war chief must be appointed. Both Baine and Thrall would be suitable for this role.
Whether any of this will happen will likely be revealed towards the end of the expansion, perhaps even with Patch 9.0.
