Well in the earlier games, Warriors of Darkness were heroes too. The Crystals gave balance. When darkness took over the world, they sent light. When the light became too strong, they sent darkness. We only ever played as the Warriors of Light and 14 was the first time we saw what fighting the light itself looked like.

Heavensward hinted at what happens when the "light" comes too much and you saw what happened later on in the other world.

In fact, Golbez is trying to save us from something worse than anything that we know...planned since Warcraft 3

Wow.

Amazing story telling!

This is all planned since Warcraft 3!

Like, omg.

oh, wait... confused as usual. Disregard.

I ended up reading about the original character. My guess is:

He comes to realize he was an Ascian pawn, made to believe that he would benefit from a Rejoining just for us to let him know what a Rejoining would have actually done.

We find a way to get him hooked up with the newly formed Warriors of Light team on the First and they all work together to find a way to restore both reflections by trading off their excess Light/Shadow. Zero's restoration from Hydaelyn's crystal shows that exposure to Light can restore the voidsent so no reason to think the reverse isn't also true.

Will it involve Zeromus coming into existence?

Rubicante was the most noble of the four fiends, and already redeemed from my PoV. He would have made an awesome Scion under different circumstances.

We'll have to see where they take Golbez. I know there is going to be a twist here. Whether there is a Zeromus, being controlled by Azdaja, or possibly Azem's shard are my guesses.

You got that from the 23 line he got in total?

I having done the last patch, so if this was already revealed true or false..I dunno…buuut

I am convinced Golbez is just a homunculus controlled by Azdaja. That is absolutely her eye in that funky ball of a head.

Who knows, maybe he'll be the one who gets to just die without any lame sob story bastardization. Probably not, though.
Wouldn't be the first, but it's been a while.
