#High elf concept art update

A dichotomy by definition involves only two things after all. High Elves of the Alliance have no place in that new dichotomy. The Thalassian storyline makes the most sense as reflecting this new paradigm. I am convinced, given the new plot paradigm of light versus dark, that the Void Elves are destined to play a major role in the future of the game, particularly Alleria and Umbric as the two Void Elf leaders (even if Alleria is a different sort of Void Elf). The lack of emphasis on the Void Elves is understandable as they have just come into existence and their story will be that of the wider void versus light conflict that will not only form the core of the game's story going forward, but the story of the thalassian peoples as they divide into light and void focused groups. The one area I thought there would be some mention of the high elves was in the Wrath of the Lich King chapters, but the Silver Covenant received no mention whatsoever. The High Elves who remained with the Alliance aren't mentioned at all following the fall of Dalaran, and the last mention is of Quel'Dorei who journeyed with Jaina to Theramore where many likely died in Garrosh's bombing.

The Blood Elves, who lest we forget are the High Elves of the WoW franchise, receive a lot of attention, with whole sections of the story devoted to them. The lack of focus on High Elves is also understandable. New lore that does not contradict previously established canon is just that, new lore. Remember, a retcon is something that overwrites previously established canon. The phrase 'final titan' probably means the last Titan discovered, as you might refer to the last player in a team roster as 'the final player'. If the final Titan were a title to be taken literally, you would have to discount Sargeras himself as well as the other Titans who merely lost their physical bodies, yet persisted in existence. Just because they referred to Azeroth as 'the final Titan' does not mean that the existence of Argus is a retcon. They finally have a solid base of lore they can now go back to in order to inform the development of future content.ДЄs for your example of Argus, I would, again disagree. Now, this is pertinent because having invested so much effort into going through all the lore and stories,Blizzard is extremely unlikely to go through it again.

To tidy up twenty years of sometimes messy storytelling and to produce a cohesive whole as a basis for the future.

The point of chronicle is to collate, review and update the lore. So just because Chronicles doesn't emphasise High Elves (and Void Elves as well), doesn't mean they won't have an important role in the future.I would disagree. All the lore to be released in the future, everything can change again (but no major or drastic changes, of course). So Chronicles is exactly what it is: A compilation and retcon all all the existing warcraft lore. They retconned even the Chronicles ingame for Gameplay reasons. and surprise, surprise, Argus had also a soul that was known to Sargeras. It was never mentioned in chronicles, and Azeroth was always mentioned as the last world soul. Maybe in the future they will change their minds again, for gameplay reasons. It can't retcon what hasn't been released yet. Here are my thoughts about what you said:Дo remember that Chronicles wants to retcon all the past lore of WoW.
