Must really not be fun to see your labour of love be ignored, censored and treated as though it never existed just to please Pooh Bear, tsar Vladimir IV and the oil baron mafia.
Queen Lilian I of the House of Voss, First of Her Name, Ruler of a United Lordaeron, Protector of the Plaguelands and Guardian of the Faith of the Forgotten Shadow.
In spite of being raised as a weapon against the undead, going on a lengthy murderous rampage in a fit of denial of her undead state, shown to despise their very existence and devoted to rooting out necromancy wherever it is found.
Suddenly having a change of heart in Legion for alluded (in bfa) mysterious reasons along an unspoken agenda that leads her to kill for the forces of Death just means we trust her less than before…
Calia pulls a WoD Velen or something to purify her of her old spite or something, I dunno. The subplot of her daughter and rightful heir and the Scarlet pretender is forgotten already.

The next Forsaken leader is actually Arthas Menethil, except he’s a Forsaken Arthas Menethil from an alternate timeline where Jaina became Lich Queen instead of him.
How does he get to our timeline? A number of Menethil Loyalist Forsaken (who are displeased with Golden Calia) do a time heist. They call it a time heist in game, because it’s a funny reference.
Next expac after that is AU Forsaken invading our timeline to get their leader back because uhhh what the hell guys???

Mannequeen will never rule! She gets to be the council representative gradually whittled away as the Horde keeps doing Bad Guy stuff in future expansions for reasons™. Year after year her despair grows, her faith tested in an environment antithetical to the thee virtues, all her bridges to the faithful burned and littered with corpses.
And that is why she suddenly flips alongside the Lightforged and Liadrin’s disaffected knights and becomes a raid boss in service to High Exarch Prophet Yrel when her army crosses space and time to purify another reality.

I’m pretty sure the broad thematic retreads will continue in future expansions. We’ve had the BC/Legion demon content, Cata/BfA old god/naga content and now Wrath/Shadowlands Death theme.
Next one is… hmm… Pandaria 2? Does it count that Sylvanas got Garroshed?
Dragon isles! Of course. A new, mysterious land to explore with deep history, uncovering unsettling secrets.

The flagship new race is less interesting than any of the antagonists.
Then again, given it’d have to be dragon-related it’s hardly surprising
I maintain that we’ll be dragonsworn to a given Flight just like the covenants for mogs and powers.

In two expansions time Blizzard will still be trying to make the lightning-in-a-bottle that was the first iteration of their Borrowed Power system work again while overlooking the obvious qualities - the fact it was a mixture of a big, flashy, flagship ability with a place in your rotation as well as numerous small boosts that made your class feel more powerful?
yeah i can believe that

And the dragon isles will have no less than two (2) skyrim memes squeezed in because topical referential humour is a blizzard staple.

Look on the bright side, maybe Legion 2 will be good
The red star falls, the seat of the pantheon crashing into… oh, let’s say Nordrassil for the heck of it, Sargeras rising from the smouldering wreckage and giving Illidan the same treatment as he gave Gul’dan atop the nightspire.
Cue dramatic music as he broods vengeance, holding the skull.
He says something about if only people had listened to him, and if only Tyrande had loved him, this wouldn’t have happened
(he never said anything about this possibly happening but a book retroactively makes it so that he thought about it lots during Legion)

Was there ever any hope Gandalf?
Only a fool’s hope.
Sargeras crushing on Tyrande over Illidan’s burned skull sure is an angle.
turns out incelgeras was just trying to get Elune to notice him all this time.
that’s why he favoured illidan
