In the next part of the quest chain ("The Night Hold"), it's said that " Illidan's soul rests safely within Light's Heart. The quest text upon completion said that " ". Did I miss something? The fangirl isn't in my class hall anymore either.In the quest that you get Illidan's soul from Helheim ("The once and future Lord of Shadow"), you returned the soul prism with Illidan's soul to the Light Heart. There was no quest to actual go get Illidan's body or anything. I fear that the time may soon come that our bond is tested and it will not be as it was at the Well in Zin-Azshari.There was a quest for that? I just remember getting Illidan's soul, then taking it to Khadgar and that was it. He replays the events in his mind a thousand times per day, but in his mind, he is the victor and Arthas is utterly defeated. I'm afraid that the loss to Arthas proved to be his breaking point. Illidan sits atop his throne in Outland – brooding. Malfurion Stormrage says: Cenarius fights at my side. What of my father? Of your brother? Have you any news? Peace between the Children of Azeroth has become tenuous at best. Keeper Remulos says: You have been gone too long, Malfurion. They intended for him to live the whole time but well when you have limited cinematic funding, showing Illidan surviving is less important than showing Arthas donning the Helm of Domination. The earliest they confirmed in game he was alive was the Dragons of Nightmare patch 1.8. Mainly cuz he's still alive and during Legion we never did quite get to see it either, aside from one short quest in Helheim where we just go and click his in-game model.īut if Illidan had died to Frostmourne, his soul would have definitely been scarred, and likely stolen, by the Mourne Blade.Īnd they later changed it when they made TBC We've never seen Illidan's soul first hand. He was only incapacitated/KO'ed by Frostmourne. I think the main reason the weapon didn't steal his soul outright with like, say Uther, is because he survived. You're the one who's wrong here, willfully ignoring pieces of lore. So no, not unaffected.Īnd no matter how much he fortified himself, there's still no way whatever spell he had was able to protect him from a weapon that can steal part of a god-like being like the Eternal Ones from the Shadowlands. It's stated in a few places (the one that comes off the top of my head is the Illidan novel and the Blades of the Fallen Prince lore in-game) that the wound left behind by Frostmourne never healed fully, and there where times where it still ached and hurt him. And so I say again: Illidan was toast.Įxcept he didn't leave unaffected. If Frostmourne wasn't able to steal demon souls, then the Nathrezim would have been protected by their demonic nature, and so wouldn't have needed protection in the first place. Even the greatest demons are powerless before Death.ĮDIT: In fact, we can infer Frostmourne WAS able to steal demon souls precisely BECAUSE the Dreadlords needed extra magical precautions to protect themselves from it. So there is no way that Illidan, who only knew the Dreadlords as demons, and not creatures of the Shadowlands, who never had a chance to pilfer the Dreadlords' knowledge during WC III, and who literally only ever SAW Frostmourne ONCE up close before the duel, would have been able to develop ANY type of counterspell for Frostmourne's power. Even then, the power of Frostmourne was a secret of the Shadowlands, knowledge that has remained completely contained until LITERALLY TODAY! The Nathrezim may have been given a countermeasure by Zovaal, maybe they learned it through study of the weapon.Įither way, only the Dreadlords had enough access to Frostmourne's secrets or enough time with it to develop such methods, and given that the blade was literally the KEY to their victory on Azeroth, they would NEVER have brought any such knowledge with them. Let's pretend they were in fact demons, and their collaboration with Zovaal was just another scheme. Ignoring for a moment that they were in fact creatures of the Shadowlands instead of pure demons. Illidan knew much back in Warcraft III, but he wouldn't have known what the Dreadlords knew.
