Planes of Existence with PlatinumWoW - World of Warcraft Lore Video

wowhead.com:

The official Warcraft YouTube channel posted a video with PlatinumWoW, all about planes of existence in the Warcraft universe.

The video covers thirteen planes of existence in all. These planes of existence aren't all equal — some are huge and important, while others are small and seemingly inconsequential. Some of these dimensions are contained within others, and many were even created by denizens of other realms. It's an interesting list, which we summarize below.

1. The Great Dark Beyond

• The physical universe. The most neutral plane of existence, and the plane that Azeroth exists in.

2. The Twisting Nether

• The plane that connects all realities, where the Light and Void are constantly at battle. Parallel to the Great Dark Beyond.

3. Phantasm Zone

• A prison pocket dimension within the Twisting Nether that contains one prisoner that we know of — Magnus Manastorm.

4. Ny'alotha, the Sunken City

• An alternate realm that the Old Gods have created by twisting time and space, where they have successfully conquered Azeroth. Throughout history, the Old Gods have tried to make this realm into reality.

5. The Elemental Plane

• A prison pocket dimension that the Keepers banished the Old God-enslaved Elementals of Azeroth to.

6. Halls of Valor

• Keeper Odyn's dimension, that he created as an eternal reward for the greatest vrykul warriors.

7. Helheim

• Helya's dimension and the opposite of the Halls of Valor, that she created mostly to spite Odyn.

8. Dragonflight sanctums

• Special sanctums where the Dragonflights would lay their eggs. The portals for these sanctums can be found under Wyrmrest Temple. There are actually five sanctums in all, one for each original flight: Ruby, Obsidian, Bronze, Emerald, and
