This week we explore the Nathrezim's purpose on Azeroth and whether their manipulations had any impact on Sargeras. (Spoiler: probably not.) Plus we recount the whispers of Il'gynoth, what we know about Xal'atath, and just what role the Old Gods might play in the story moving forward. Hosted on Acast.

Just what do the Nathrezim want?

Our Pathfinder 2e: Rise of the Runelords campaign begins!
