Previously, we covered the
Xal'atath quests
leading up to the Crucible of Storms raid, but one key piece was missing--the cinematic. We helped Xal'atath retrieve several important relics and place them in the Crucible of Storms, and then after a placeholder cutscene, she'd disappeared, Brother Pike was alarmed, and we'd acquired the "Gift of N'Zoth."
The cutscene fills in the blanks, explaining
how
we ended up with the gift and what Xal'atath's bargain was with the God of the Deep.
Xal'atath: Hear me, God of the Deep! I have brought you the Opener... the Bringer of Truths... the Torch That Lights the Way!
Xal'atath: Honor our bargain...free me to find my own fate!
N'Zoth: Go... but the blade must remain... to serve my will.
Xal'atath: A fair exchange. Shadows guide you, my dear friend.
Xal'atath: We will meet again...I am certain of it.
Xal'atath disappears into a Void Portal
N'Zoth: I have dreamed your destiny, mortal.
N'Zoth: The hour is close at hand.
N'Zoth: That which was sunken shall rise.
N'Zoth: All that were sleeping... shall be awakened.
N'Zoth: Receive my gift and see all truths before you.
So based on this exchange, WE are the torch the lights the way. Perhaps our constant faction war is what N'Zoth wants--we weaken each other so N'Zoth can defeat us easily.
N'Zoth also stipulates that the blade must remain behind as Xal'atath is freed. We later see this blade in the hand of Sylvanas, as per the BlizzCon 2018 presentation. Does N'Zoth help Sylvanas acquire this blade, and was he also behind Sylvanas appointed as Warchief?
There are many more datamined N'Zoth whispers related to 8.1.5 and you can check them all out, as well as our interpretation of them, in the post
The Old God Whispers Added in 8.1.5 and What The Clues Could Mean (Spoilers)
.
Below you can see our playthrough of the earlier parts of the 8.1.5 Xal'atath quests:
After the cutscene, you are given the "Gift of N'Zoth." You can choose to cleanse this gift or not. Players that keep the gift can see others with the gift. If you do not choose to keep the gift, you can't tell who has it--so in a sense, there are secret followers of N'Zoth.
We've also datamined some dialogue which could take place after this cutscene and questline:
Sylvanas
Sylvanas is excited to learn about Xal'atath, possibly acquiring it to turn the tide of the faction conflict. At BlizzCon2018, we saw a picture of her holding the empty shell of the weapon.
Sylvanas also describes Xal'atath as a "torch that shall light our path forward," which echoes the Il'gynoth whisper "Five torches to light our path."
Xal'atath... a fascinating weapon. I have heard tales of its exploits.
A pity it now lies dormant. But anything that slumbers can be awakened.
This blade is more than a mere dagger. It is a torch that shall light our path forward.
Soon I will call upon you again, champion. And together, we will steer the Horde toward its destiny.
The Alliance believes that by striking down Rastakhan and decimating the Zandalari fleet, they have broken us. That the Horde will soon crumble.
Fools. The boy-king has lied to himself and his people. He hasn't the faintest inkling of what he's truly up against.
War is a living thing. It writhes, it grows, twisting and turning until its final form is revealed.
This war is about to shift yet again. And it will be this blade that guides our way to victory.
Anduin
Anduin learns about Xal'atath's choice to awaken N'Zoth:
Another Old God awakened... this does not bode well. Our world suffers much as it is. The wound in Silithus, the war...
The Alliance stands on the brink of victory. Of ending this conflict and bringing peace to Azeroth.
Sylvanas sent her champions into that shrine for a reason. She must have discovered something that can shift the war back in her favor.
Whatever that might be, she must not succeed. Be ready for me to call on you again, $n. We will stop Sylvanas--once and for all.
Anduin reacts to Sylvanas:
When Sylvanas Windrunner became warchief, I knew we would not be friends... but I didn't want us to be enemies. Then came the massacre in Arathi... and the burning of Teldrassil.
It's clear she does not fight for Azeroth. She doesn't even fight for the Horde. She wages war upon life itself.
We are so close to ending this conflict and forging a lasting peace. But if Sylvanas uncovers some new weapon that allows her to keep fighting...
No. We must discover what she's after... and stop whatever madness she seeks to unleash upon us.
Talanji
As a child, I listened to de elders tell tales of de Old Gods. I thought dey were little more than ghost stories meant to frighten us.
But now I see dat dey are all too real. An infection within de heart of Azeroth.
We defeated G'huun, but N'Zoth poses an even graver threat. In a world torn apart by war, I pray de loa will show us a way to stop him.
Brother Pike
All my life, I've witnessed the duality of the sea. It is both a source of life... and a force of destruction.
I became a tidesage to wield the might of the depths for the good of Kul Tiras. To learn of the great darkness lurking beneath us all this time...
The Old God wants us fractured. Divided. I fear this war has given N'Zoth exactly what he wants.
