Fleeing to Stormwind and King Llane Wrynn, one of Medivh's BFFs, Aegwynn told him everything. Llane along with Khadgar and Anduin Lothar set out to plot and kill her son. Wanting no part of it Aegwynn teleported to Kalimdor where she set up shop near Ratchet. She still had a smidgen of her original powers left and used them to Scry on the events unfolding around her son. When her magical Tivo showed her son's death her heart broke.

Determined to fix things yet again she spent time rebuilding her strength and her magic so she could bring Medivh back to life. Revived and uncorrupted Medivh went about trying to redeem his actions and save the world he nearly destroyed. Third war anyone?

So Retirement take two! Who would want to bother a tired, centuries old woman in the middle of nowhere in Kalimdor? Jaina Proudmore that's who! After some shenanigans with Arthas' main squeeze it was discovered that Zmodlor, the very first demon Aegwynn defeated, had come back. Who didn't see that one coming? Resurrected by the Legion and plotting with the Burning Blade cult, Zmodlor recruited and corrupted advisors from Thrall and Jaina's courts to start yet another war between the Humans and Orcs.

The battle with the demon nearly killed Aegwynn who gave a great deal of her power to Jaina in order to save her life. After recovering she took a position in Jaina's court as her advisor, so long as no one knew who she really was.

Alongside Jaina she was involved in helping Verian Wrynn, at the time called Logosh, regain his memories and help Valeera Sanguinar, one of Logosh's BFFs, subdue her Blood Elven addiction to magic. Aegwynn was invited to yet another summit between the Horde and Alliance this time witness to the attempted murder of Wrynn and Thrall by Garona Halforcen, the assassin who'd killed King Llane years before.

Uncovering a plot by the Twilight's Hammer Aegwynn once again found herself battling the lieutenants and former employees of the Burning Legion. During this battle she met a young man, Med'an, Garona's son. He bore striking resemblances to her own son Medivh in both appearance (seriously?) and magic. Debating on whether or not to pull the 'Grandma Card' she chose not to... the kid also had enough drama going on.

All of this culminated in a fight within the ruined temple of Ahn'Qiraj. In her last and final sacrifice, Aegwynn gave all of her remaining power and life to Med'an to ensure his victory over Cho'Gall and the forces of the Twilight's Hammer. Where her arrogance had cost the life of her son and nearly the entire world her sacrifice bought Azeroth another chance at survival.

Her final resting place is in Morgan's Plot by Karazhan, next to her son. While this may be the end of her story, her legacy lives on.

  • please do turalyon!!

    

  • And Med'An goes on to do absolutely dick to help anyone.

  • You guys the BA rating is not literally a "10 could probably beat a guy that is an 8". Pride has stated before that that is more of a personal "how interesting is this character lore-wise and how does much does he contribute to the world" it's seems to be more of a personal taste rather than who is stronger than who.

  • Facepalm... Pride must edit these video's, he's giving Thrall an 8,

  • Why is Thrall only a 8 B.A rating?

  • @joedaroo1 because he doesn't care for his soldiers. only for his captains and the dead and defeat of the horde and the capture of thrall

  • @joedaroo1 Easy: try to snake in New Stormwind with ur horde character and say hello to Anduin... then u know WHY IN THE HELL he is a fucking 10.

    BTW im horde, and i love kill him before 4.0 T_T

  • "'AQ' at one point was a Titan research facility, it was later taken over by mosquitos." LOL

  • Legit vid. Very much so enjoying learning the lore of warcraft, pre cata, and intro to cata. Playing the game and not knowing whats going on tends to be a bit... bland. Like i always said, Context is everything, and y'all got some Context!

  • If anyone saw the quote for Anduin Lothar, I'd like to point out that it was hilarious. When I was reading it in the book (The Last Guardian), Anduin Lothar and apprentice Khadgar were having tea talking about Medivh at the moment, and how he stormed off to kill a demon that was in the city (old Stormwind).
