How did Alexstrasza figure out Fyrakk was coming for Amirdrassil?
Anne Stickney: «There is a cutscene that plays at the end of the dungeon during which Nozdormu talks with Alexstrasza, and Nozdormu mentions that he „only sees fiery clouds.“ After that, Alexstrasza simply match the elements she has in her possession and supposes that these flames can only be those of Fyrakk, and that he would undoubtedly seek to attack the tree. This is why she believes that „We need to talk to Merithra soon, because if Nozdormu can see him then this is something we need to prepare for.“
Blue-eyed Blood Elves are now canon. Man'ari Paladins might be.
