Yogg-Saron and the recent Chronicle preview


This is something I've always thought about. I am a huge fan of H.P. Lovecraft, and I love that Blizzard takes part of his concepts into WoW, and so, I end up thinking about the Warcraft Old Gods a lot.There are five Old Gods in Azeroth that we know about, and it was fair to assume that Azeroth itself would be one, considering the name is almost the same as the prime Old God in H.P. Lovecraft's mythos, Azathoth, the blind idiot god. And so, I've always been intrigued by this thought and I've always tried to consider lore settings as if Azeroth itself was a character. Something that stood out to me, was Yogg-Saron's dying quote."Your fate is sealed. The end of days is finally upon you and ALL who inhabit this miserable little seedling. Uulwi ifis halahs gag erh'ongg w'ssh. ("The shadow of my corpse will choke this land for all eternity.")"Who inhabit this miserable little seedling. Notice the negative description of Azeroth? A miserable, little seedling? I've always considered Yogg-Saron to look down upon Azeroth as the stupidest God, as Azathoth is looked down upon due to the extreme carelessness. However, with the addition of the new lore, that Azeroth is in fact a Titan Spirit, this kind of changes things up a bit. Not only do we know that the Old Gods came down to Azeroth and dug deep into the earth for a reason, we also know that they are aware of Azeroth. Well, Yogg-Saron is, at least. This is quite interesting when you consider that, the Titans didn't. And I don't think it is fair to assume that the Old Gods can scan worlds for Titan Spirits, because I think the Titans would've realized that pattern fairly quickly (that old gods are attracted to such titan spirit worlds). I find this really exciting because Yogg-Saron is supposed to be Yog-Sothoth, an all-knowing sadist god, and to actually see that Yogg-Saron was even wiser beyond all the manipulation and chaos that it had created, its awareness of this really is a plus in the Old God lore.It also brings up questions such as, how come the old gods are aware, but not the titans? who is the most intelligent? And the recent illustration with Azeroth forces also brings up many questions here as well, such as, are the titans above the naaru? and if so, what do the naaru think of the old gods? and the titans? The old gods are now officially spaceborne as well as the Naaru and Titans. The Naaru rescued a highly intelligent race from a corrupt titan, perhaps there is far more to this than we are aware of, just what role does these three gargantuan factions play?Sorry for the rambling, just had to speak my mind after having been fascinated by finally having Azeroth's identity revealed, it gets me excited for Old Gods in general and hopefully a future Yogg-Saron!
