The True Origins of Titans: A Speculative Exploration with Nobbel87
The Titans are deeply invested in our reality, our world, and a very specific "true" timeline - but why? This question has been posed by Nobbel87 in his latest lore speculation video. It's an intriguing question to ponder, especially when examining the Worldsoul Saga and the true intentions of the Titans.
The Cosmic Realms
Before delving into the reasons behind the Titans' connection to our reality, let's explore the different cosmic domains in the Warcraft universe. We have the forces of Light and Shadow, Life and Death, and Order and Disorder, each in a perpetual struggle for dominance. We've also encountered different entities associated with these domains, such as the Pantheon of Death.
These cosmic forces have made attempts to manifest and exert their influence in our reality. For instance, the Void Lords sought to corrupt a Titan and created the Old Gods to achieve their goals. Similarly, the Naaru acted as ambassadors for the domain of Light and engaged in battles to protect their realm from threats, such as Revendreth and the Shadowlands.
The Appearance of Titans in Our Reality
Considering the aforementioned cosmic domains and their respective forces, the question arises as to why the Titans are born in our reality, the physical universe. The Chronicles provide us with insight into the birth of Titans:
| Excerpt from the Chronicles |
| Even more extraordinary than the naaru were the colossal titans. Their spirits—known as world-souls—formed deep within the fiery core of a small number of worlds. For ages, these nascent titans slumbered, their energies suffusing the celestial bodies they inhabited. When the titans finally awoke, they did so as living worlds. Cosmic winds howled across their gigantic forms, bodies shrouded in a cloak of stardust, skin crisscrossed with silvery mountain peaks and oceans shimmering with latent magic. With eyes that shone like brilliant stars, they observed the fledgling cosmos and became enraptured by its mysteries. Whereas the naaru set out to safeguard life, the titans embarked on a different journey. They wandered the distant corners of the Great Dark, searching for others of their kind. |
According to this account, Titans come into existence after the Warcraft universe is formed. These Titans, known as world-souls, originate deep within the fiery cores of certain worlds. These nascent Titans slumber for ages, infusing their energy into the celestial bodies they inhabit. When they awaken, they become living worlds.
However, is this the natural state of these World Souls? Could it be possible that they are molded to become Titans? The Void Lords attempt to corrupt slumbering spirits and turn them towards their Void state, similar to what the Titans do. This raises the question of whether the Titans' actions are truly about bringing order to planets and nurturing World Souls, or if there is another underlying motivation.
Can We Trust Aman'Thul?
One theory worth considering is that Aman'Thul, the first Titan to awaken and gather the Pantheon, might have ulterior motives. Is Aman'Thul actually connected to the domain of Order but has infiltrated the physical universe? Could he be comparable to an Old God or Naaru, influencing the cosmos to align with Order?
Considering the cosmic forces' desire for dominance, the story of the Titans transforming planets and World Souls into their image may be nothing more than Titan propaganda. This revelation could lead to fractures within the Pantheon itself, particularly between Aman'Thul and other Titans like Eonar. Different views on permissible deviations from Order may stem from their different origins.
Sargeras, the noble champion of the Pantheon who fought against the darkness, may also react strongly to this knowledge. If the Pantheon enforces their own way of life, akin to the forces they oppose, it could challenge Sargeras' convictions. Furthermore, the existence and nature of Azeroth, a World Soul, become intriguing points of discussion. How does her formation and connection to the elemental spirits play into the Titans' true intentions? These revelations could give rise to a confrontation with Aman'Thul and potentially aligning with Azeroth and Xal'atath in an unexpected manner.
Final Thoughts
While speculation about the true intentions of the Titans opens up exciting narrative possibilities, one thing remains certain: as players, we are the children of the Titans. Our position in the universe has been shaped by their actions. However, the realization that we may have unknowingly become pawns in a larger scheme raises interesting questions about our role and the true essence of the Titans themselves.
