      @@seasonal_clorox_bleach8308 he did the blood elves. And I swore he did azuremyst... Though now you mention it there's worgen, pandas, gobbos, and... Allied races don't count cause they don't have full starting zones. In fact, those other 3 you can't revisit so I think our chronicler is only doing static and reviewable starters that don't vanish once you finish them

      Eventually, my goal is to cover as much zone lore as I can personally handle. I want to adress every zone in order of level, so moving up from the staring areas, we should see places like Westfall, Darkshore, The Barrens, Silverpine Forest very soon!
      Besides the zones, I'm also working on various topics regarding races, events and characters in the world of Azeroth.
      That in combination with community input from polls and updates, should make for an interesting journey into the near future!

Will you talk about them in depth, will they get their own videos, or will you briefly go over them as they relate to the overall zone?

    • @TheChroniclesofAzeroth

      The way you describe option 3 is exactly how I envision the way to explore subregions within a zone.
      Much like I don't go into too much detail about Orgrimmar or Stormwind City for Durotar and Elwynn Forest, I will talk briefly about The Deadmines because it's not about that particular zone. It does, however play a greater role in the overal story of the zone in question!
      So to answer your question, the cities and dungeons are all on my list of getting their very own lore overview at some point!

    Honestly, i never got the whole "settle the orcs in harsh land as a form of penance" bit - Durotar has alot of economic potential. The weather is hot, but it's right by the sea so there's plenty of humidity and probably rainfall, and there's a big river with fresh water. Assuming good fishing grounds, trade opportunities - and desert agriculture can be very productive. Real life human civilizations have prospered in worse places.

    Awesome video,
    I'm suspicious you used AI to write the script which would suck, but hopefully it wasn't!
    AI is often overly descriptive which I felt was very apparent when describing the landscape, harpies, etc
    Everything was "Adjectively adjective generic word to describe an enemy!"
    The story is really well put together, however you constantly use the word adversary and valiantly, and part of telling really good story telling is finding words that are not the same to describe the same thing.
    You don't mention that relationship between Jaina and thrall diminished because of an attack on a horde trading ship by pirates and the alliance didn't help. And you also barely mention razor hill in passing despite it being one of the most important places in Durotar
    Also in the part that mentions sarkoth, you introduce him twice within 15 seconds. That's not something that a good storyteller would do and it's pretty redundant, but a very well could see an AI do that and often times they are very redundant.
    Watched the video again and I asked AI to come up with an introduction and it's almost one for one what you said
    Narrator: "Welcome, traveler, to the harsh and unforgiving land of Durotar. A realm where the sun blazes relentlessly overhead, and the winds whisper tales of ancient strife and unyielding resilience. This arid expanse, nestled along the eastern coast of Kalimdor, bears witness to the trials and triumphs of the Horde, a faction born from the ashes of conquest and forged in the fires of redemption."
    "Named in honor of the legendary orc chieftain, Durotan, this land serves as a testament to the Horde's enduring spirit and unwavering determination. From the towering spires of Orgrimmar, the capital city that stands as a beacon of strength and unity, to the rugged plains where the Darkspear trolls make their home among the Echo Isles, every inch of Durotar pulses with life and history."
    I'm not against the use of AI for creating scripts like this because it makes for an epic tale, but please proof read it and make it sound like a human wrote it at least, less adjectives and grandiosity. It sounds like the AI is trying to reach a word count
