wow Naga Terrarium Animated Back Item in Patch 10.2 and 11.0 Expansion Hints?

[Starym 3,725]

 

There's a very interesting item datamined on the patch 10.2 PTR and, combined with one other hint, might be pointing to 11.0.

The "Naga Terrarium", which is pretty clearly actually an aquarium, is a backpack-type (presumably) cosmetic item. It's extremely unique and we haven't seen anything quite like it yet. Let's take a look first and then continue speculating.

Source: LeystTV.

And here it is in action, with some really nice animations:

So, the theme doesn't quite match with the Emerald Dream and it doesn't really feel like it would come from any of the usual sources, even the Trading Post. One of the potential things it could come from is the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket (now renamed the "BlizzCon Collection", since all the streams will be free). Another is as a reward for a potential deluxe edition of 11.0. We've seen future expansions hinted at by datamined items before, specifically with Dragonflight and its deluxe edition's Emerald Drake mount. And if you're thinking it's way too early for something like that and 11.0 now, well, the Dragonflight mount was datamined during the patch 9.1.5 PTR.

Another thing hinting at a possible naga-themed 11.0 is the recent Dawn of the Infinite cinematic we recently took a look at, as the silhouette in the portal may just be Azshara herself!

While some have speculated that the figure is Xal'atath, the sentient entity from the Priest Artifact, Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire, the naga queen might be a better fit. The last time we actually saw her, she was literally going into a Void portal, very much like the one Iridikron went into above, while talking about basically going after the power of the Void Lords.

All of this is highly speculative, of course, but such a unique back item could be pretty significant. DO you think this may be a hint at 11.0 or am I overthinking things?

Now that's pretty cool.
