Warcraft: Sylvanascould reveal more about one of the more controversial figures inWarcraftlore. Sylvanas is a character who oscillates between hero and villain, existing in a moral grey area. In thereveal trailer forChains of Domination, fans saw Sylvanas looking decidedly torn as King Anduin Wrynn was corrupted by The Jailer. PerhapsWarcraft: Sylvanaswill shed more light on the character’s current motives through a deeper exploration of her history.
Ultimately,Warcraft: Sylvanaslooks to be a book about choices. From the earliest days of Sylvanas when she was killed by Arthas, to her rise among the Forsaken, to the path that inevitably led her to join forces with The Jailer. As bothWarcraft: Sylvanasand the newChains of Dominationupdate are both slated for releases later this year, it’s possible that the novel could shed light on lore beyond what fans will see in-game.
