The Valoran Alliance fought the Abyssal Demons to secure the territory for Valorant, while Medivh kept the Wrynn Family within the limits of the joint operation. Twenty years later, Valorant had been established, and Medivh gave its godhood-ascension slot to Freya.

  • The Abyssal Demons learned Valoran was leading the invasion and assembled armies to fight while reaping souls on other fronts.

Ch. 535The Dream of a Billion Girls

At the Banquet of Gods, Luna negotiated the Elf Empire and Fairy Empire’s entry into the Tarot Nature Pantheon, requiring their guardians to perform for Medivh as a condition of access to godhood resources.

Ch. 536I'm Not Falling for That

Medivh and Luna recruited elves and fairies into the Tarot Nature Pantheon, then joined the Church of Light and the Hall Angels to help the Horn Plane advance into an Origin Plane. The Abyssal Demons tried to rally the All Spirits of the Star Sea against the Holy Hall of Light, but the spirits refused to take sides.

Ch. 537The Net of Light

Horn Plane ascended to an Origin Plane, rewarding its contributors with godhood and giving birth to Gabriel, Goddess of the Net of Light. As Gabriel began weaving the Wrynn Family’s planes into her Net, Arthas learned that Syndra and Medivh were together and chose not to disturb them.

  • Arthas understood and stopped asking about Syndra, while Uther already knew about the relationship.

Ch. 538The Abnormal Plane Will

An unclaimed Twelfth Rank plane ascended into an Origin Plane, but its awake Plane Will turned its natives into Khorne’s gods of slaughter and fought off the invading Star Sea factions and Abyssal Demons. The plane became the Khorne Plane, a persistent Sin Domain whose corruption could follow survivors back to their own worlds.

  • Medivh kept the Wrynn Alliance out of the conflict, judging that it lacked the strength to challenge the Star Sea factions and Abyssal Demons alone.
  • After the plane ascended, its Plane Will remained awake and helped its natives ascend to godhood as invaders entered.
  • The Plane Will created guardians and empowered the native gods, whose brutal slaughter killed many invaders and enabled more natives to ascend.
  • The Khorne Rule spread through the plane, turning Abyssal Demons into Terror Demons or Tyrant Demons and driving Star Sea Transcendents to attack friend and foe alike.
  • The invaders retreated into strongholds or withdrew as the plane became known as the Khorne Plane, where factions and Abyssal Demons continued fighting amid its creatures.
  • Khorne’s mark persisted on those who left the plane, and repeated slaughter could awaken its corruption far from the Khorne Plane.

Ch. 539How Could They Get Their Home Raided, Too?

Medivh and Luna considered how the Star Sea Rules had created the Khorne Plane to counter the growing strength of the Light Alliance, spreading Khorne corruption across the Star Sea and Abyss. As the Khorne threat continued to grow, the Tzeentch Plane appeared after a Fel Overlord corrupted a Thirteenth Rank Plane, leaving Medivh stunned that Fel Energy could raid a home, too.

  • Medivh reflected on how the Khorne Plane had turned its natives into Khorne Creatures and spread Khorne corruption through the Star Sea and Abyss.
  • Luna suggested the Star Sea Rules had created new sources of evil to keep the Light Alliance from growing too powerful, and Medivh agreed.

  • A Fel Overlord who called himself the God of Conspiracy, Tzeentch, schemed against the native God Rank powerhouses of a Thirteenth Rank Plane and corrupted it with Fel Energy.
  • The Tzeentch Plane came into being, and Medivh wondered how Fel Energy had managed to raid someone's home.

Ch. 540Fools Were Not Worth Plotting With

Medivh failed to persuade the Star Sea gods and Abyssal Demon Gods to oppose the Three Sources of Evil, so the Light Alliance prepared for war on every front. The chapter ended with Light Alliance forces attacking Abyssal worlds as Titan City deployed on the thirty-third layer and its troops charged into battle.

  • Medivh urged the Star Sea powers to destroy Tzeentch and curb Fel Energy, but they rejected his proposal and let Tzeentch, Khorne, and Nurgle grow.
  • The Three Sources of Evil and Abyssal forces attacked the Wrynn Alliance and Light Alliance, while the Star Sea gods and Abyssal Demon Gods blocked the Light Alliance from striking at their planes.

Ch. 541Seven Halls in the Abyss

The Light Allied Forces conquered the Abyssal worlds of the Plane Graveyard, cleansing and settling the lands while the Light Alliance established seven Sanctum Worlds. Medivh governed the Iron Arm Sanctum as its secular ruler, while the Abyssal Demon Gods and Gods of the Star Sea watched and prepared to use the Three Sources of Evil to keep the Light Alliance in check.

  • Luna spread Light Mycelium across captured lands as the Light Allied Forces fought through the Abyssal worlds, and Skeletons built and cultivated protected cities behind the front.
  • The Abyssal Demon Gods and Gods of the Star Sea concluded that the growing Light Alliance threatened their freedom and chose to let the Three Sources of Evil restrain it.

  • The Abyssal Demon Gods and Gods of the Star Sea planned to keep the Light Alliance and the Three Evil Gods fighting, intervening if either side threatened to destroy the other.

Ch. 542Different Ranks and Classes

The Gods of the Star Sea and Abyssal Demon Gods believed they could control the Three Sources of Evil, while the Light Alliance prepared to strengthen itself against the danger. Meanwhile, Medivh’s alliances left the Azure Wave, Frost, Silver, and Blue Dragon Clans well positioned for Ascension, while the Wind Dragon Clan regretted losing its ties to the Wrynn Family.

  • The Gods of the Star Sea and Abyssal Demon Gods reveled in their new freedom, unaware that Tzeentch, Khorne, and Nurgle were secretly corrupting them and growing stronger.
  • The Light Alliance recognized that the Three Sources of Evil could bring a catastrophe and resolved to strengthen itself because it could not rely on the Star Sea or the Abyssal Demons.
  • The Azure Wave Dragon Clan secured Ascension slots in six Sanctum Worlds, making the other Valoran Dragon Clans envy its good fortune.

  • The Wind Dragon Clan lost its chance to connect with the Wrynn Family after it had Reinhardt take the Wind Dragons away, and its elders blamed the clan leaders who had failed to seize the opportunity.

Ch. 543Not Keeping All the Benefits to Himself

Medivh distributed ascension slots among his allies, strengthening their factions instead of keeping the benefits for himself. The Light Alliance welcomed Hestia, who soon became a Fifteenth-Rank Upper God, though she accepted the Light Covenant’s restrictions for the remainder of its fifth stage.

  • The Elf Empire and Fairy Empire sent Legendary Transcendents to Storm City and Tarot City to seek Medivh’s blessing and secure places in line for ascension slots.
  • Medivh sent Hai Wenxiang and Hathaway to deliver ascension slots to the East Sea Scale-men and the Azure Wave Dragon Clan, asking them to select ordinary candidates as well as women close to him.
  • The East Sea Scale-men and the Azure Wave Dragon Clan accepted Medivh’s proposal and divided the slots between candidates chosen through the usual process and women close to Medivh.
  • The Holy Hall of Light invited Hestia to join the Light Alliance, and she accepted on behalf of the Fire Prayer Pantheon.

Medivh congratulated Hestia on reaching Upper God, then saw Goddess of the Underworld Irigal ascend to Mid God as the fifth phase of the Light Covenant neared its end. The chapter surveyed Medivh’s progress and the growing ranks of gods across his allied planes, while his Race-Leading Pantheon Project remained unfinished.

  • Medivh visited Hestia on the Skyfire Plane and spent two and a half months with the Fire Prayer Pantheon, giving its goddesses lavish gifts before leaving.

Ch. 545Saying Farewell to the Old and Welcoming the New

As the fifth stage of the Light Covenant neared its end, Luna used the Main Energy Network to begin raising planes to Thirteenth-Rank Origin Planes. The Blackstone Plane was chosen for ascension, leaving its dragons celebrating their long recovery and their ties to Medivh, Alexstrasza, and Shyvana.

  • The Wrynn Alliance and Light Alliance expanded their ranks of gods and Transcendents across the seven Sanctum Worlds, with Medivh supporting Light Priests from Moana's faction in repayment for her past help.

  • The Blackstone dragons credited Medivh's alliance with them, and Alexstrasza and Shyvana's ties to Rhine and Medivh, for their survival and rise in power.

Ch. 546Mist of Plague

Goddess of Spores Luna defended the Blackstone Plane’s ascension evolution against an assault by the Three Sources of Evil, using spores, divine light, and dream powers to repel them. The Goddess of Blood Moon sent Nightmare Fiends into the battle, where they clashed with the Three Sources of Evil’s control and drew her into a battle of wits with them.

  • Goddess of Spores Luna drove the Spore Plane’s ascension forward as the Sam Plane’s growth brought the Myconid Tribe greater strength.

  • The Goddess of Blood Moon sent Nightmare Fiends to reinforce the defenders, and they possessed enemy bodies and turned some attackers against their allies.
  • Tzeentch, Khorne, and Nurgle began corrupting the Nightmare Fiends in return, prompting the Goddess of Blood Moon to challenge them from afar.

Ch. 547This Was Only What I Wanted You to See

As the Blackstone Plane continued its leap and evolution, the rise of the Blood Moon began a new age and freed the Star Sea’s High Gods and Abyssal Demon Gods from their restrictions. Tzeentch concealed that the Three Sources of Evil had already rooted themselves elsewhere and risen to High Godhood, while their enemies mistook their apparent retreat for weakness.

  • Tzeentch had already moved the Three Sources of Evil’s core elsewhere, where they drew power from the evil thoughts of Star Sea spirits and Abyssal demons rather than their planes’ origins.
  • The High Gods left the Blackstone Plane’s evolution alone, while pressure from the others forced the Three Sources of Evil to drain their planes and keep harassing the Light Alliance.

Ch. 548A Radish for Every Hole

The Blackstone Plane advanced to a Thirteenth-Rank Origin Plane, rewarding its dragons, religious leaders, and Scale-men with divine ascensions as Medivh organized its new pantheon and defenses.
