So I went onto YouTube and saw there was a new video about my son from a channel I really enjoy, one that does all-new animations with in-game models to tell and retell bits of lore.  I got super giddy thinking about how they’d portray Fahrad...
...and they turned him into a big, fugly, gray-haired, beardless, short-haired, one-eyed Kul Tiran in completely different armor FOR ABSOLUTELY NO FREAKING REASON!!!  WHYYYY?!?!?!?
Tumblr media
Not to mention they pronounce Rheastrasza and Nyxondra wrong. It’s REE-uh, not RAY-uh, and NIX-ondra, not NAYX-ondra.
And the title calls Wrathion the stupidest dragon in lore, but I haven’t watched past the Ravenholdt part so I don’t know if that’s gentle teasing because he is young and he does do stupid things.  Probably is.  I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt because they usually do really funny, enjoyable lore videos (and honestly I’ve laughed out loud at some parts of this one already,) but that Fahrad thing...it’s just so wrong!!!

He always knew.
(Ravenholdt Manor - Before Pandaria)
Wrathion was reading some papers on the table, the champion who arrived a couple weeks ago showed an incredible skill, so the Black Prince was counting with his comeback, therefore preparations were needed but he wasn’t alone that night.
-Fahrad you are particularly quiet today, what has your mind so occupied?-
The rogue woke up from his trip down memory lane when he heard the words from his prince, he looked at him, the voices wouldn’t shut up.
“Look at him, thinking he is someone. You have him in the palm of your hands. Destroy him. Torture him. He thinks he is a prince. The pathetic whelp thinks he is important. Prove him wrong. Corrupt him. Tear his body and mind apart.”
Stop.
-I am sorry my prince, just wild thoughts.-
He got up and went to window, wind was strong that night, and the Manor was quiet, silent as a dead body.
Idiot Fahrad he already had feelings for the “Black Prince”. He looked at him like a son, he was his son, he knew it.
And that’s why he had to do that, Wrathion was meant for so much more, he was uncorrupted, his mere existing could turn the world upside down.
And Fahrad was an obstacle, the voices were and obstacle, they were going to control him at some point, and then...Wrathion wasn’t prepared enough and he was already a trained rogue dragon...the Black dragon tried to put that image aside.
-Wrathion you already know, who I am, right?-
The Black Prince was genuinely shocked hearing his name, the rogue would always refer to him as prince or some other fancy name, but, he still answered without lifting the head.
-Of course, you are Fahrad, a very well trained rogue who trains other rogues and...- But the other voice interrupted him, now the rogue was in front of the table.
-No, Wrathion, I mean, who I really am.-
Then the prince showed his very particular grin.
-Yes, you are Fahradion, a powerful black dragon who was in command of some of Deathwing must powerful forces, until you focused yourself on destroying human colonies from the inside, yes I know, why the question?-
Fahrad narrowed his eyes.
-As you said, I’m a powerful black dragon, but above all, I’m corrupted...and they...won’t shut up...about...killing you!!!-
The eyes of the rogue turned orange and with a powerful glow on them, smoke also came out from his nose but Wrathion didn’t blink.
-I already now that, but not to worry, they managed to erase the corruption in me, of course we can take it away from you, we only need time.-
Fahrad just lowered his head, now back to normal and he sighed.
-No, Wrathion you can’t take it away, you have to kill me to ensure your safety.-
The rogue almost managed to finished before seeing the red eyes of the prince in front of him, glowing even more than his.
-You don’t dare tell me what I can and cannot do, WE are going to take the corruption away and that’s IT.- The dragon finished his words slamming the table, kill him? No, never, there has to be a way, there was a way for him so he was going to find a way for Fahrad, that was for sure, yes, Alexstrasza had the information, a little bribe and that’s it...
-You know...it’s impossible, you know it deep inside you, make the promise Wrathion, make the promise that you will kill me when the Champion you chose finishes the tasks.- The rogue wasn’t very happy with what he said, but it was the truth, the only truth.
-...How...can I kill you?...- How could he do that?...Everyone knew that Fahrad wasn’t only another rogue to him, he was a mentor...a father-like figure...something he’d never have again.
Was that...sobbing? Was Wrathion...crying?...
It was for only a moment before he’d go back to his normal self but he definitely cried.
-You’re asking the impossible Fahrad, I can’t kill you, but overall I DON’T WANT to.- That was the final decision, you could heir it in his tone, Fahrad couldn’t help but to make a really melancholic smile, but he wasn’t going to keep insisting.
-You’ll know what to do...-
That sounded like a whisper, but it wasn’t really a whisper, more like the rogue said to the princes own mind.
-Let’s go my prince, you have to rest, there’s training tomorrow.-
And so the two dragons went to sleep, almost forgetting about the whole conversation, like it never happened, but it did...and it was going to affect the future.
(Ok so we all know that the only perfect ones Wrathion fickers are katieskarlette and Yulon BUT I still wanted to post this...and it helps me with my English writing so yeah, that. Headcanon about one of many Fahrad and Wrathion fights about “you have to kill me, no I can’t” I just love headcanons so so much, I’ll post more original content later I P R O M I S E)

The Dragon Aspects and the Eternal Ones
It’s probably not deliberate on Blizzard’s part, and I doubt it means anything, but I’m just saying...there are some definite parallels there.
[Image description below]
Pictures of Ysera and the Winter Queen, both labeled “The quiet one who hangs out in Ardenweald that you do NOT want to piss off.”
Pictures of Alexstrasza and Kyrestia, both labeled “The authoritative big sister figure who thinks she always knows best (but doesn’t).”
Pictures of Nozdormu and the Primus, both labeled “The mysterious, wise one who never seems to be around when you need him and knows more than he lets on.”
Pictures of Malygos and Denathrius, both labeled “The jovial, bombastic one who ultimately goes bad (and is the first to become a raid boss).”
Pictures of Neltharion and Zovaal, both labeled “The one who was involved in a betrayal and got kicked out of the group.”

Theotar:  Expectations vs. Reality
[Image description below]
[A picture of Theotar as he appeared in the first Shadowlands previews, looking serious and threatening in front of a plain, dark background.]
Expectations based on Blizzcon 2019:  Sinister, standoffish, bloodthirsty, probably lives in a huge Gothic mansion on top of a hill where there is always thunder and lightning.
[A screenshot of Theotar in game during Winter Veil, holding part of his tea set and wearing two Santa hats, one on each side of his heart-shaped hairdo.]
Reality:  Goofball sweetheart who loves and supports his friends, lives for tea parties, wears two hats for Winter Veil, and hangs out in a scorched wasteland.

Either Anduin got super powerful or the Archon was really having an off day.

Space Balls: Shadowlands Edition
(Seriously, though, they aren’t related and didn’t even know each other, so it seems odd to push these parallels all the time...)

Happy Father’s Day from Deathwing
If your dad doesn’t destroy half a city to get your decapitated head back, is he even trying to be a good dad?

A stupid, pointless skit in which my mage gets off her butt and tries to “fix” recent lore (especially the Arthas thing) through the power of sheer frustration, a prop from a different IP, crappier image edits than usual, and a blatant disregard of logic that even eclipses Blizzard’s
Somewhere in Dalaran, my mage, Skarlette, has been quietly minding her own business since shortly after 9.1 launched.  Catching up on her reading, letting Murky play in the fountains, failing to organize her bank, and just generally ignoring anything going on in the Shadowlands.
Now I’m imagining her giving a weary sigh, setting aside a yellowed tome of magic, and heading off to Zereth Mortis.  She marches into the Sepulcher during the newest cinematic, looking thoroughly fed up.
“Champion, where have you been?” Uther asks.  “We could have used your help in the Sanctum of Domination.”
"Never mind that.  What the hell is going on here?  I can’t leave you guys alone for a single patch without everything falling to pieces.”
Tumblr media
Skarlette stomps up with one of those spirit-catching vacuum things from Ghost Busters and sucks up what’s left of Arthas into a box.  
Tumblr media
She turns to Sylvanas and tries to point at her, but the author only has access to WoWhead model viewer at the moment and can’t figure out how to unequip her weapon, so pointing makes her also whack herself in the face with her fiery staff.  It is just as uncomfortable as you imagine. 
Tumblr media
Recovering quickly, she says, “You.  Go find Nathanos and then make yourself scarce for awhile until the discourse quiets down.”
Tumblr media
She next turns to Uther and Jaina.  “You two, come with me.  There’s a pod in my conservatory in Ardenweald with Arthas’ name on it, but the three of us will have to grind out a few million anima to grow his soul back.”  
Tumblr media
As you can see, they are not looking forward to that.  That’s a lot of daily quests.
Skarlette then stomps further into the raid and screams in the general direction of Zovaal, “And you, Mister ‘I Show More Nipples Than Characterization’, can just go away and not come back until you’ve developed a personality and a master plan that doesn’t involve a degree in quantum physics to understand.  You are a bad villain and you should feel bad.”  
Tumblr media
Zovaal cries a little bit, but nobody can tell under the helmet.
Skarlette then makes a portal to Oribos and physically shoves a confused Jaina and Uther through it.  
They plant the wisp of Arthas’ soul in Skarlette’s night fae garden and feed it anima until he’s whole again, then drag him before Pelagos to be properly judged.  
Tumblr media
He ends up in Revendreth, naturally, and after a few centuries of grueling atonement and hilarious shenanigans with Kael’thas he can join Uther in Bastion, where they train new Kyrian together.  When Jaina dies they can find a lovely little cottage somewhere in a part of the Shadowlands that doesn’t completely suck and (un)live happily ever after.  
Tumblr media
The End
...
I don’t know wtf this turned into but I have a headache and I wanted to make a comic but WoW Model Viewer isn’t working for me and rather than troubleshoot it I decided to crank out this stupid skit with WowHead, Google images and stuff I had already made instead and I’m sorry but not really because damn it if Blizz can write dumb plots that make no sense then so can I nyah

Zovaal’s plan
Remind me again why the Jailer was so intrigued to see Anduin’s affinity for the Light...

Frostmourne Vs. Remornia
Arthas:  “It’s not fair.  Your magic sword can fly around and attack independently, and have fun banter with you.  All mine does is complain about being hungry all the time.”
Denathrius:  “Just lucky, I guess.”
(Don’t ask why they’re in Oribos.  I needed a background.  Maybe they ran into each other while riding around in circles looking for an auction mount.)

Anduin’s line in the first panel is directly from page 60 of Shadows Rising.  I know he’s under a lot of stress at the moment but I was amused at how he seemed to forget Alleria and Turalyon were married for a second.
