The Ancient Gods of WoW are parasitic horrific entities created by the Lords of the Abyss. They are also a physical manifestation of the latter. They look like huge mountains of flesh, spreading through the worlds, like cancer cells. Their goal is to find and further absorb titanic souls.
general information
The names of the Ancient WoW Gods living in Azeroth are known. They sound as follows: K'Tun, Yogg-Saron, N'Zot and Y'Sharaj. At an early age, they had total control of the planet. Formed the so-called Dark Empire, consisting of the then inhabitants of the world.
After some time, the Pantheon arrived in Azeroth. His armies were sent to destroy the strongholds of the invaders and remove their power. The first was Y'sharaj. He turned out to be too strong. Initially, the forces of the Titan army were not enough to defeat him. However, this prompted their leader, Aman'Thul, to kill enemies with his own hands.
At the same time, he inadvertently created a giant rift in the earth's crust, from which the blood of Azeroth oozed. Thus, the titans realized that the Ancient Gods plunged too deep into the bowels of the world. It was impossible to defeat the monsters without destroying the planet. Therefore, they decided to imprison them, forever imprisoning evil deep beneath the surface of the earth.
Incapable and, until recently, forgotten, the Ancient Gods to this day affect the people themselves and the events of the universe. Along with the Burning Legion, they are one of the most powerful and recurring threats in the series of games.
Manifestation of the Ancient Gods of WoW in the game
At some point, K'Thun woke up and again emerged from the bowels of Azeroth. He could be found in the ruins of Ahn'Qiraj before he was killed by adventurers.
During his reign in Ulduar, Loken fell under the influence of Yogg-Saron. In the end, he betrayed both the Pantheon and his brother Thorim. Loken lived in the Halls of Lightning, trying to completely free his new master.
According to Malfurion, the Ancient Gods are behind the desecration of the Emerald Dream. Although the nightmare lord turned out to be Satyr Xavius, it is suspected that he acted on behalf of some terrifying force. It is also known that Yogg-Saron is responsible for the emergence of the Emerald Nightmare, and N'Zoth - for its distribution.
During the Pandaria war, Garrosh Hellscream unearthed Y'Sharaj's still beating heart and took it with him to Orgrimmar. During the final battle, heart strength was depleted. The result was the disappearance of Y'Sharaj. The Ancient Gods indirectly participated in the escape of the distraught leader of the Horde to an alternative Draenor.
Nozdormu said that the Ancient Gods caused a lot of suffering experienced by the Aspects. The madness of Malygos and Deathwing, the Emerald Dream turned into a Nightmare, a change in timelines, the creation of a monster from Blackmoore, Twilight Cult - all these things were connected by a conspiracy of the Ancient Gods. His goal was to destroy Aspects and dragons forever, and with them all the chances of order and stability.
