wow Refined Cosmology Chart from Grimoire of the Shadowlands

[Stan 5,018]

Some readers got their hands on Grimoire of the Shadowlands book early and we learned that the existing cosmology chart from the Chronicles isn't too accurate. Check out the refined one to learn more!

In the portion of the book that deals with cosmic forces, we learn that the existing cosmology chart is flawed and it turns out Brokers have done more extensive research. Keep in mind that the new cosmology chart is presented from the Brokers' perspective and here's a portion of the text from the book, where a broker is mocking our version of the chart.

Refined Cosmology In the course of my research on the works of the First Ones, a living soul from Azeroth (who purported to be a scholar of some renown) showed me a tome containing an elaborately painted illustration she claimed to be an accurate representation of how the cosmic powers related to one another. I must say, despite the extensive training I completed in order to interact favorably with the mortal races, it was all I could do to muffle my derisive laughter! Instead, I patiently asked questions about the origins of this so-called "cosmology" as if I were hanging on every rambling word from the scholar's lips. When I learned that this woeful miscalculation of a chart had been passed down through the hands of her world's titan-forged races, it told me all I needed to know about the absurdity of the tome to which she clung so zealously. Why, every word within was chosen so as to look favorably upon the titans, as if the Pantheon of Order were the architects of the flawless cosmos! How typical of their kind to claim credit for that which they did not build but inherited. As has been well documented, the language of the titans uses the same word for "created" as it does for "Ordered". Such blatant hubris! I briefly considered sharing with this self-styled scholar our own cosmology, painstakingly researched by the finest minds of our combined cartels, designed to impartially relate the foundational truths of the cosmos. In the end, I realized the mortal would fail to grasp its subtleties, so rather than waste further effort, I thanked her for sharing her "wisdom" and sent her on her way. In the interest of completeness, I am including our CORRECT cosmology map here for reference.

We would like to thank Auri for providing the detailed images.

Retcons upon retconning upon even more retcons.

Still waiting for refined cosmology chart from the perspective of the Void Lords. Then we are going to get even more refined one from the perspective of the First Ones.

Then we find out the First Ones are just the 4th dimensional (space+time) avatars of 5th dimensional beings responsible for the creation of the multiverse, and elsewhere they were known as the Xel'Naga, and yet again elsewhere as Anu and Tathamet

There are way too many similarities, not to mention even Starcraft has a place called Void. I guess Naaru could have been some living shards of Anu, they came to be when Anu was struck down by Tathamet. Somehow they were transported to another universe! Also Amon was secretly working with the Void Lords.

Then we can assume that Nexus is another multiverse, where many alternate versions of known people end up after they got "pruned" from their original universes.

Nexus is the 6th dimension, since its a hub of potential universes making up the multiverse, and what we see is the limit of what a 4th dimensional being could comprehend of it. 😄
