But he was also too weak to do anything about it at the time.įlash forward to present-day Azeroth. This evil scheme was also foiled, the Dragon Soul was destroyed, and all four remaining Aspects started beating the heck out of Deathwing, who managed to escape and go bide his time in Deepholm, an elemental plane devoted to earth. He couldn't use the Dragon Soul - but hey, he certainly could use other people like puppets and make them use the Dragon Soul. The remaining Aspects changed the properties of the disc so that Neltharion, now called Deathwing, couldn't use it anymore and hid it away in the middle of nowhere where Deathwing would never, ever, find it. It didn't work, and his plans were foiled by a bunch of night elves, including Malfurion Stormrage - yes, the current leader of the night elves. Except it wasn't very good, and once Neltharion got everyone's power, he used the Dragon Soul to try and take over the world. To that end, Neltharion created an object known as the Dragon Soul and took it to the other Aspects, lying through his teeth about what it was really for and convincing the other flights of dragons to put some of their essence into the little glowing disc for the good of all. Oh, and also that he was the best dragon ever and should rule the world and all things on it. The Old Gods decided having a long chat with Neltharion was an excellent idea and soon had him convinced that the rest of the Aspects were working against him. This would have been great, except that Neltharion was assigned to watch over the deep caverns of the earth - you know, where those Old Gods were imprisoned. Each Aspect was assigned to watch over a certain part of the world and make sure everything stayed dandy. Then the Titans created five dragon Aspects - Nozdormu the bronze, Alexstrasza the red, Ysera the green, Malygos the blue, and Neltharion the black. However, the Titans that created the world were understandably against the whole chaos thing, so they locked the Old Gods deep within the earth and out of the way and banished the elemental lieutenants to the elemental planes. They loved chaos, and so did the elements of the world, so the Old Gods assigned four elemental lieutenants to help them out with the whole chaos movement - Ragnaros, Therazane, Al'Akir and Neptulon. Way back when Azeroth was first created, there were these terribly nasty creatures of chaos called Old Gods, who thought the best thing in the world would be if the world ended for good.
