wow A Familiar Face Spotted in Dawn of the Infinite Cinematic

[Stan 4,870]

If you played through Dawn of the Infinite, you've most likely seen the end cinematic with Iridikron, but the community has spotted another familiar face in there. The following post contains spoilers.

After briefly talking to Chromie about the titans, Iridikron with the Essence of Galakrond opens a void portal to an unknown location.

Whilst Iridikron is entering the portal, we briefly catch a glimpse of an Elven silhouette very similar to that of Xal'atath, as you can see below.

This looks like Blizzard is setting us up for a void-themed expansion using Iridikron as a bridge between expansions (similar to Gul'dan) with Xal'atath playing an unknown role as well.

If you played in Legion and Battle for Azeroth, you've most likely remember Xal'atath as a sentient entity tied to the Priest Artifact Weapon.

In case you've missed the cinematic we're talking about here, check out the following video to refresh your memory.

Do you think Blizzard will reveal a void-themed expansion at BlizzCon? Let us know in the comments!

Just a female NE silhouette. Could be pre-squid Azshara?

If it's Void-themed, I hope it isn't in its entirety. We already had like three expansions with significant Old God presence (Cataclysm, MoP, BfA) and they were present in others to some extent as well. This lore is becoming too repetitive.

The hair matches both of them so it could be. Both also escaped through a void portal, so it's not like Azshara completely abandoned the void after all those shenanigans. But it's exactly because of that that I find it highly unlikey for this to be Azshara: if she's indeed still meddling with void powers then it wouldn't make sense for her to change back into a Night Elf. I think that's her permanent form now and she'd also have no reason to somehow hide it here.

But if anything this almost feels like we're getting a Void Loser League. It's not actually that farfetched to think that Azshara, Iridikron and Xal'atath are teaming up in the void. Azshara was last heard saying she'd claim the "true throne of power" for herself before disappearing in a void portal, something that Iridikron and Xal'atath are probably also interested in.

Oh, hello Internet Explorer! Good work there!

That could also be a Boold elf they have similar ears. And that would make more to me anyways.
