Diakum and the Kaldorei learned that the Magic Plague was driving infected elves toward despair, while the Thousand-Eyed Demon lured them into the Void by restoring their elven appearance. As the Kaldorei prepared to seek a cure, Diakum faced a new temptation to use the Curse of Flesh to save the transformed elves.

• Vastann Staghelm told Diakum that the Thousand-Eyed Demon had offered to restore his form, but he had refused and feared other warriors would defect.
• Fandral Staghelm arrived, comforted his degraded son, and ordered the Kaldorei to open dream paths to bring Spriggan sages from Elwynn Forest to help stop the plague.

• Zum'rahn recounted how the Magic Plague had transformed the Shifting Sands Guardian in Silithus into Dark Troll, prompting Zandalar's nobles to celebrate and propose welcoming the elves back into the empire.
• Zum'rahn warned Rastakhan that the plague had infected Kaldorei cities across Kalimdor and could produce Dark Troll elsewhere within twenty days.

• Rastakhan ordered Zul to lead the mission with a Golden Fleet vanguard and promised the Sandfury Clan a new island home if the Qiraji were defeated.
• Talanji joined Zul's expedition, and Zul ordered Zum'rahn to assemble thirty thousand warriors and secure The Lash for the princess.
• After Zum'rahn left to prepare, Zul told his disciples that he could not read fate but had seen a storm approaching, and ordered them to ready the Golden Fleet.

Kur'talos Ravencrest deciphered the Zandalari inscriptions, realized the trolls wanted an alliance against the Qiraji, and warned the other elven factions that Magic Plague could transform elves into Dark Trolls. Farodis and Anasterian then urgently sought Diakum's help securing Spriggan healers, fearing the plague could bring down the Phoenix Dynasty.

• Kur'talos compared the Zandalari war inscription with his old diary and concluded that the Qiraji were remnants of the Aqir Empire, whose ancient god threatened both trolls and elves.

Diakum and his allies realized the Magic Plague threatened the Magic-addicted High Elves and Highborne far sooner than the Kaldorei, while Bwonsamdi revealed new troll reinforcements and warned Diakum about the Shadowlands. In Quel'Thalas, Anasterian mobilized his court to recover the Book of Medivh and secure aid, while Farodis prepared to seek Diakum's help against the plague.

• Neri, Diakum, Yrel, Maraad, and Rexxar concluded that the High Elves and Highborne would transform into Dark Trolls faster than the Kaldorei because Magic Addiction had weakened their bodies.
• Shadow Word told Diakum that he might use the Curse of Flesh to give the transformed elves another chance, and Diakum returned to practicing the void divine arts.
• Bwonsamdi reported that Zandalari forces and the Sandfury Clan were heading toward Silithus, celebrated the return of the ancient Dark Troll tribe, and warned Diakum that a Gurubashi hex master had joined the Orc warlocks in the Black Morass.
• Bwonsamdi cautioned Diakum that the Shadowlands had watched the Eredar for a long time and that their immortality might provoke the powers governing life and death.
• Anasterian dispatched Salorian and Sanguinar to recover the Book of Medivh, while Kael'thas reported that Daval Prestor would provide the grimoire and had identified locations of missing pages.
• Farodis told Kael'thas to travel with his fiancée, take a Spriggan natural seed, and seek an Arcan'dor fruit, then prepared to meet Diakum and ask him to help save the High Elves and Highborne from the Magic Plague.

Diakum struggled to learn Flesh Remolding before meeting Farodis and three powerful Highborne leaders, who sought help against the Magic Plague. As he negotiated a practical plan with Toserin and General Staghelm, the Troll Empire prepared to join the war, deepening tensions over the fate of the elves.

• Diakum failed to reshape a mutant bug properly, and Shadow Word urged him to study the Qiraji and use the Void with clear purpose.

• Toserin asked whether the Spriggans could protect all infected Highborne, and Diakum warned that some might still become Dark Trolls.
• Toserin said the elves needed to obtain the secret of fallen shaping for themselves, and Diakum proposed private talks while cautioning him not to confuse the Void with the Old Gods.
• Diakum told Farodis that the Troll Empire would support the war, prompting Farodis to reject any troll claim over the Dark Trolls; Diakum then took Toserin and General Staghelm aside to discuss cooperation.

• Shadow Word told Diakum that C'Thun wanted to speak with him, and Diakum agreed to meet the Thousand-Eyed Demon before the coming conflict.

Diakum rejected C'Thun’s offer and declared war on the Old God, which was corrupting Azeroth’s World Soul. As Oreses’s Lightforged fleet traveled to support him, she suspected Diakum was being drawn toward darkness, while her companions defended him and prepared for battle.

• C'Thun appeared to Diakum in Silithus, offered him power and Qiraji forces, and ordered him to leave the Qiraji Empire’s territory.

• The commanders planned to deploy to Azeroth, establish psychic defenses, and fight C'Thun’s insect swarm alongside Diakum.

Diakum reassured Archdruid Staghelm that General Staghelm could still turn back from the Void, then awaited reinforcements for the coming battle against C’Thun. When Garrosh and Cairne Bloodhoof arrived with plague-stricken Tauren refugees, Diakum healed Dezco, whose followers recognized him as An’she’s messenger, while the Holy Light and the Void continued vying for his allegiance.

• Diakum healed the plague-stricken Dezco and other Tauren with the Holy Light, and Dezco declared Diakum An’she’s messenger as his followers knelt before him.
• The Holy Light answered Diakum’s reassurance with a brighter radiance, while Shadow Word urged him to defeat C’Thun and embrace the Void’s path to creation.

At Cenarion Hold, druids discussed the spreading demon threat before Old Staghelm rescued Rexxar from a nightmare rift.

Rexxar joined the campaign against the Qiraji after taming a bear who had once been an elven Archdruid, while Diakum prepared to lead the army and guide the Highborne’s planned shadow ascension. The Qiraji broke through the Scarab Wall, and Zul revealed that Zandalar faced an even more dangerous Old God imprisoned beneath Talanji’s father’s throne.

• Rexxar woke beside the brown bear he had rescued, named her Misha, and agreed to fight alongside the druids against the Qiraji.
• Diakum explained to Neri that Misha was an Archdruid transformed by C’Thun’s nightmare, then accepted the Highborne leaders’ plan to make him the beacon for their shadow ascension.

• Light's Judgment bombarded the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, and Diakum advanced toward the collapsing stronghold as the Qiraji fled.

The Army of the Light arrived at the Qiraji battlefield and joined the assault, while Diakum reunited with his former disciple Tramon and descended toward C'Thun. Saloras and Oreses unleashed their powers against the swarm, then set out to reach Diakum as Saloras warned that his battle with C'Thun could leave him lost to the Void.

• Yrel watched Light's Judgment strike the battlefield, then followed Maraad and the Mag'har to join the Army of the Light's assault squads.

• Garrosh admired the Lightforged's warriors and told Gaiara that their power showed what Mag'har soldiers should strive to become.
• Tramon reunited with Diakum, who appointed him as his assault adjutant and explained that they needed to kill C'Thun to earn Argus the right to meet his sister.

• Saloras told Oreses that Diakum had begun the Lightless Ritual and might fall into the Void, then hurried with her sister to bring him back.

Diakum defeated Fankriss and entered the depths of Ahn'Qiraj, leaving Tramon and the Army of the Light to face the temple’s other defenders. After defeating Ouro and bypassing the twins who tried to stop him, Diakum headed toward C'Thun, where the Lightless Ritual awaited.

• Diakum incinerated Fankriss and the explosive insects, then entrusted Tramon with the Flame Blade and ordered him to lead the others away from the battle with C'Thun.
• Tramon assigned Fareeya and Barat to hunt Princess Huhuran and sent the others to confront the Twin Emperors, while Fareeya’s group joined forces with Farodis and the demigod spellcasters.

• Diakum summoned Bwonsamdi, Zul, and Talanji, suppressed the twins’ connection to the Holy Light, and pushed past them toward C'Thun’s temple.

Diakum entered C'Thun's prison to begin the Lightless Ritual, determined to face the Void without abandoning his purpose. After shattering C'Thun's dark shell with Holy Light, he revealed the Old God's true body and began the next stage of the battle with Void allies.

• Diakum rejected Shadow Word's warnings and explained that he had entered the darkness to stop tragedies and clear C'Thun from the path between Argus and Azeroth.
• Diakum reshaped his body with Curse of Flesh to increase his agility, then received Holy Light's remaining blessings before opening C'Thun's prison.

Diakum fought C'Thun in the Lightless Ritual, drawing on Argus’s power and the Twilight Hammer to badly wound the Old God before C'Thun swallowed him. Inside C'Thun, Diakum chose to activate Ancient Frenzy and absorb three Crowns of Light, leaving his fate uncertain.

• C'Thun struck Diakum with a Twilight Eye Beam that threatened to drive him mad, so Argus burned its remaining will to empower him.
• Diakum unleashed Twilight That Severs All Things, blasting away much of C'Thun’s body, but C'Thun swallowed him after the attack left him weakened.

• Argus warned Diakum that Ancient Frenzy would corrupt him if he devoured an Old God while enraged.
• Diakum said he had planned for this possibility, absorbed the three Crowns of Light, and activated Ancient Frenzy inside C'Thun.

Diakum fought C’Thun while the Void Lords watched, but his Naaru bloodline stopped his body from being forcibly corrupted. Trapped in a trial within his own mind, he discovered that Light-Shadow Twinborn meant choosing how to use any power, then extinguished the Holy Light’s last spark and prepared to create his own light.

• Diakum’s Ancient Frenzy drove him to devour C’Thun’s Void Authority, while C’Thun could not call for help from the Void Lords or summon a demigod.
• Shadow Word and the Void Lords realized Diakum was resisting corruption because his Naaru bloodline was rapidly awakening, though they believed he could still fall into despair and become a Void Herald.
• Diakum awoke in his gray mental world and reviewed the insights in his holy covenant, searching for the answer to his Light-Shadow Twinborn trial.
• Diakum realized that his identity and choices mattered more than whether he wielded the Holy Light or the Void, and he wrote a final verse in his Light-Shadow Sacred Pact.
• Diakum thanked the Holy Light, extinguished its last spark within himself, and declared, “Let there be light!”

Diakum emerged from C'Thun's corpse as a Devourer of Worlds, then awakened his power as a Radiant Holy Spirit who could wield both light and shadow.

• Diakum answered that he would serve the Holy Light even if he fell into darkness, accepted the Void Lords' applause, and departed with the Twilight Hammer and Ashbringer.

• Diakum returned to C'Thun’s remains and gathered materials to craft equipment for his allies and the Lightforged.
• Diakum reviewed his new demigod abilities, chose Grand Lord of Holy Oaths as his Mythic Class, and named his Faith Faction Light Weaver.
• The Holy Light and Void factions reacted with suspicion to Light Weaver, while Diakum waited in vain for new followers to join.

Diakum returned as a newborn humanoid Naaru after defeating C'Thun, and he declared victory in the War of the Shifting Sands. He invited the leaders and demigods to remain in Silithus for a matter concerning the world's fate, while Chromie prepared Tarecgosa for a journey to meet Azeroth's Star Soul.

• Diakum returned in a radiant humanoid Naaru form, embraced Neri, and announced that C'Thun had been slain and the Qiraji defeated.
• Diakum asked Zul, Talanji, the elves, and the demigods to remain in Silithus, then summoned the Twins for a private talk.
• Chromie told Tarecgosa that Mylune and Alestrasza had joined the Dragon Travel Group and could not leave Silithus because of Diakum's shadow marks.
• Chromie told Tarecgosa to prepare for the journey to the Chamber of Heart and the meeting with Azeroth's Star Soul.

Diakum confronted Saloras and Oreses about their devotion to Xe'ra, but they defended the Army of the Light's methods and insisted he was the prophesied Light-Dark Child. After postponing their disagreement until they could meet Azeroth’s Star Soul, Diakum began cleansing Onyxia’s Void corruption and preparing to reshape her body.

• Diakum, Neri, and the Five Little Powerhouses urged Saloras and Oreses to break their connection to Xe'ra, while the Twins defended the Army of the Light’s forced Lightforging of dissenters.
• Saloras and Oreses revealed that Xe'ra had identified Diakum as the prophesied Light-Dark Child, and Diakum agreed to show them the consequences of their choices by meeting Azeroth’s Star Soul.
• The Twins refused to sever their connection to Xe'ra and left, while Diakum told the others to prepare for the meeting and promised the Shifting Sands Guardians a Shadow Ascension ritual.
• Diakum asked Neri to take Onyxia to a sealed hangar so he could cleanse her before bringing her to the Star Soul.
• Onyxia misunderstood Diakum’s order to transform, then revealed her dragon form as Diakum prepared to remove her Void corruption and offered her a choice of new appearances.

Diakum reshaped Onyxia into a powerful Nergigante-like black dragon and prepared to Lightforge her, while Shadow Word urged him to take a larger role directing Azeroth’s dragons. At Cenarion Hold, General Vastann Staghelm emerged transformed back into an elf, and his relieved family and the Shifting Sands Guardians celebrated.

• Onyxia chose a melee-focused Creature Template, and Diakum purified her corruption and rebuilt her body into a spiked Nergigante with a hidden Ruiner Nergigante form.
• Shadow Word encouraged Diakum to oversee the dragons and recruit Deathwing, while explaining that he would become the Void Herald as Ren'dorei followed his path.
• Onyxia awoke in her new body, agreed to be Lightforged, and startled Neri with her altered appearance.
• At Cenarion Hold, Old Staghelm waited anxiously as General Vastann Staghelm emerged from the ritual restored to an elf’s body.
• The Shifting Sands Guardians knelt in gratitude, and the Highborne leaders recognized that the Ascension Ritual had succeeded.

After unlocking paired Void Herald and Light Oath Lord classes, Diakum appointed the Burning Legion as his followers’ enemy and the Shifting Sands Guardians became Shadewalkers. He blessed their first demon hunt, then the Guardians planned to gather more recruits in the Broken Isles while Diakum prepared to meet the Star Soul Lord.

• Diakum unlocked the Void Herald and Light Oath Lord classes, then declared the Burning Legion the Shadewalkers’ enemy and ordered them to hunt demons.
• Vastann Staghelm led the Shifting Sands Guardians to Un'Goro Crater, where they killed a succubus and her felhound and offered the demon’s soul to Diakum.
• Diakum answered the Guardians’ summons, blessed them with the Eye of Truth, and learned that granting blessings consumed his Faith Power.

The chapter detailed Diakum’s Mythic Class [Void Herald], Radiant Holy Spirit, and Devourer of Worlds traits, along with the state of his Light Weaver faction. It left him warned to consider his enemies and complete his faction’s regulations, while his Devourer form remained a danger to the universe.

• Diakum’s Void Herald traits replaced Shadow Word with Twilight, empowered his spells and followers, and allowed him to establish a Void faction.
• Diakum’s Light Weaver faction had Lightsworn and Shadewalker branches, 557 Shifting Sands Guardians, and several unfinished leadership, ritual, and doctrine decisions.
• The class evaluation advised Diakum to consider his most dangerous enemy and warned that Xal'atath might be spying on him.
• Diakum’s Radiant Holy Spirit traits gave him vast Holy Light power and authority, while fatal damage could turn him into a Devourer of Worlds.
• Diakum’s Devourer of Worlds form could absorb energy, transform onlookers into Void creatures, and grow by devouring worlds, but doing so would draw the hostility of powerful beings.

Diakum activated the Heart of Azeroth and reunited Azeroth with the weakened Argus Lord, then used their power to recover some of Argus’s scattered will fragments. After sensing that Azeroth was weakened by arcane, Void, and death forces, Diakum resolved to help her.

• Diakum told the Five Young Champions that they could join his Holy Light faction and ordered them to escort A'dal the Exalted and its followers to Draenor while keeping the Eredar’s secret weapon hidden.

• Diakum placed the Heart of Azeroth in the Titan Console, allowing Azeroth to contact and begin healing her brother, the Argus Lord.

• Diakum sensed that Azeroth remained dangerously weak and said he would help her withstand the arcane, Void, and death forces afflicting her.

Chromie chose to abandon the Bronze Dragonflight’s Titan-serving timeline and seek forgiveness from Azeroth, while the Star Soul revealed that a hidden death-force threat in Pandaria was draining her life.

• Azeroth agreed to give the dragons one final chance to serve her, warning that she would never forgive another betrayal.
