Arthas is one of the most iconic character in all of Warcraft lore and really one of the most important figures in this entire chain of events happening with the Jailer and the Shadowlands as after all Arthas was the most important Lich King ever.

However we have defeated Sylvanas already, we have seen the likes of Garrosh and Ner’Zhul and aside from some memories of Uther’s there are still 0 signs of Arthas? We know for a fact that Uther threw Arthas into the Maw so he must be there but as we scoured through most of the Maw we have not seen him anywhere?

So will Arthas finally appear in the Shadowlands or not?

  1. I thought people agreed on the story that the Jailer finds the sepulchre gets nearly allpowerful with the size of a planet, Sargeras gets summoned they both fight it out in a duel for domination vs destruction and the universe explodes and the reality ends. Then, we wake up from our N'zoth Vision and find out it was all a dream, N'Zoth won, and we SERVE as his loyal servants. 🙂

  2. What if Arthas’ soul is what was used to make Anduin’s mourneblade? We see The Jailer casually reach out and grab a soul to put into it in a cinematic. Perhaps it’s the part of Arthas that was in Frostmourne before it was shattered and is now being used to control Anduin?

    If that were the case, I believe we will see “good” Arthas at some point and we will dive deeper into the story of how the mourneblades work to split/absorb souls. The Primus knew how to make them and they are desperate. I see no reason why he wouldn’t look into getting that memory back or relearning to forge such a powerful weapon to battle The Jailer.

  3. The fact that Blizzard has shown us Arthas bring thrown directly into the Maw, AND stated at Blizzcon that we would see Arthas "in some capacity," is evidence that they are saving Arthas for the end of Shadowlands, likely 9.2. My assumption is that he is the one that helps us save Anduin, and defeat Zovaal, as he would have much more knowledge of the current events than Sylvanas does, having been in the Maw for over 10 years. We will absolutely see Arthas, don't worry about that. What I'm curious about is what they will do.

    Is he going to still be allies with Zovaal? Will we find him hiding in the Maw, as we see Va'nari hiding?

    Just as the brought back Illidan in Legion to interact with Sargeras, his (im)mortal enemy, they too will bring back Arthas to deal with Zovaal. It makes sense lore-wise, and theme-wise. Just as Illidan was doing things for a reason, so was Arthas, and we know what those reasons are. They will likely add additional context to Arthas' story, as they did with Illidan's, to further expand the lore, so as to answer some of the burning questions left unanswered by WC3 AND WotLK regarding his character.

    The only thing that could ruin Shadowlands for me is if Blizzard doesn't use Arthas in some significant way like that that. It would not ruin his story; ruining his story would be leaving it as is, untouched, as Shadowlands added in soooo much new information, recontextualizing the entire Warcraft story, especially WC3.

    Anyone arguing "leave Arthas out of this story" gravely misunderstands the lore. Leaving Arthas out of this is the equivalent of leaving Illidan out of Legion; it would be disgraceful. Nobody complained about Illidan's redemption in any meaningful way. Seeing Illidan confront Sargeras at the end of Legion was a moment we have been waiting for since WC3, and they cliff hung it to build untold levels of anticipation for that plotline.

    The Sanctum of Domination's end cutscene is the equivalent of the Tomb of Sargeras end cutscene in terms of setup. We know what Zovaal plans to do: use the knowledge of the First Ones, at the Sepulcher of the First Ones to assist him in resetting reality to bend to his will. Naruto fans will understand how cool this is, as it's what Madera was planning on doing in a sense, but on a much larger scale. Everyone complaining about Sylvanas is stupid, because now we have proof she wasn't fully herself, and she now is fully herself again. Zovaal held her "humanity" hostage to coerce her to carry out his will. If you don't understand how cool of a story that is, your opinion is trash, your knowledge of the lore is casually low, and your education on quality writing is nonexistent.

  4. I feel like Arthas is definitely going to play some part in the conclusion of Uther's storyline, learning to not act with vengeance against his fallen student but to show him mercy in his time of weakness or something.

  5. They are dropping the ball. My only guess is that Arthas is Blizzards nuclear option. With people quitting in droves, legal issues, and faltering story lines, Arthas is the ace up their sleeve. They will use Arthas as the last effort to save WoW. If I'm wrong…this game is done. A Vengeance of the Lich King, having him take out the jailer, would bring people back in crowds.

  6. Knowing Blizzard they will make him a boss in a new raid where we fight the Jailer. We have to fight the Jailer at one point, it would make sense to make him a boss. Then we can free him from the Jailer once we defeat him, and he can go live in Bastion.

  7. Hard to say Arthas “failed”. He literally was only defeated by divine intervention. The whole boss fight is him testing if you’re worthy of being one of his soldiers.

  8. We're being faked. Sylvanus never made Anduin a pawn. She can't bring herself to do the same thing to Anduin that Arthas did to her. So she swapped Anduin and Arthus. Its been Arthus doing everything in 9.1 this whole time. Remember when Uther did a double take on Anduin in the 9.1 opening cinematic. That's because Uther thought he recognized Arthas but Arthas was wearing Anduins armor.

  9. The cheap way I see. Is I see that the domination magic the shards or gems in the armour of anduin. was actually fragments of arthas soul. The parts of him that felt Trapped, that felt unending pain, and his fate of being damned as the Lich king.

  10. Pls don't say Arthas was decieved,he was brought to the sword by muradin he knew what he is entering to,he did not pick frostmourne to protect his people's,he pick it becouse he wanted vengeance on mal'ganias don't say he was tricked!
    And later after he defeat ilidan at icekrown it is his own choice to put the helm of domination,not Ner'Zull not Jailor,it was all Arthas and Kell'thuzard.
    And scourge is same power durning Ner'Zull time and Arthas time,just when Ner'Zull rule on Azeroth Archimond the defiler was main antagonist.

  11. Pls don't say that Arthas have master,He is King,a king that bow to no one,he don't bow to paladins,he don't bow to undeads,he don't bow to elf's,he don't bow even to Archimond,but Kell'thuzard convinced him to play along whit the legion,don't call the jailor master of Arthas,there is no place for the two of them!

  12. Everyone know how it will end,Arthas will become the Jailor of the jailor,just like ilidan become jailor of Sargeras,blizzard saw that whit Wotlk and tbc they made big mistake killing them,and in legion they redeem ilidan,and now they will redeem Arthas.
    They was the equal counter parts in wc3 lore Ilidan and Arthas,why ilidan deserve more than him?
