Debunking the Beledar Mystery: It’s Not Sargeras’ Sword!

Staff's Avatar by Staff

A widely circulated theory that the crystal Beledar, located in Hallowfall, is actually the tip of Sargeras’ sword has been officially debunked. The crystal, which notably turned dark when Sargeras plunged his sword into Silithus, sparked speculation. However, recent evidence and statements from Blizzard confirm that Beledar is unrelated to Sargeras’ weapon.

Reddit user scroolooseuk demonstrated that Beledar is far from Silithus by comparing maps, further dispelling the myth. Despite this, the true nature of the mysterious crystal remains unknown, with theories suggesting it could be tied to the Naaru or even the Old God Xal’atath.

Blizzard has also debunked this popular theory in one of their interviews, but what could this mysterious crystal be?

The crystal might be a Naaru prison, potentially part of Xal’atath’s sinister plans. A Khaz Algar mural hints at a fifth Old God, possibly Xal’atath, trying to seize the crystal, raising questions about its role in the Worldsoul Saga and Xal’atath’s ultimate intentions.
