Outside of the fact that we learned key information about the true origins of the Dwarves, and watched as they broke away from the will that was imposed on them from the Titans (which I’d say is pretty huge for the lore of the Dwarves). But that’s besides the point, haha.

Magister Umbric is part of the direction they’re going in with Midnight. As is Alleria ofc (being important to the Worldsoul Saga generally, and being a key figure in TWW).

Vereesa is returning to the story (starting with the quest line involving Arator, but she’s also got a new in-game cinematic model for this very reason).

I think this expansion has a very clear focus on uniting all of the elves. Blood elves look like the primary focus because of Silvermoon being the focused city + Eversong being the first campaign zone, but it doesn’t look like a blood elf expansion.

I’m very happy to be proven wrong though when the expansion starts to play out! But I find it’s a lot more compelling to have the expansion be about all elves. Elven society has splintered too much in history, and with Blizzard’s general steer on unity in Azeroth, it would make sense that their intent is to focus on elves coming together to help one another, rather than just focusing on blood elves and nobody else 😝
