Talk:N'Zoth

Accuracy?
There seems to be a lot of uncited information here that may be speculation: that N'Zoth drove Deathwing mad, that he whispered to Azshara, and that he is beneath the Maelstrom. As far as I'm aware, the only thing confirmed is that he was responsible for the Emerald Nightmare. Can anyone provide sources for these other claims? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.

Most of the speculation is related to the Puzzle Box of Yog-Sarron, which referrences "the sleeping city of Ny'alotha", home to a "drowned god" that "lays dreaming". The many overt mentions of dreams and nightmares by the Puzzle Box, combined with N'Zoth's status as the source of the Emerald Nightmare, points strongly to a possible connection between the two. The fact that Ny'alotha is a sunken city also points to the possibility that this is the Old God located in/around the Rift, which may also be connected to the Rift of Aln, bringing everything full circle. Of course, this is all speculation, and Yog-Sarron's puzzle box may not refer to N'Zoth at all. Suzaku (talk) 03:24, 30 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I've cleaned up the article to separate speculation. The only bit of verified information at this point is that N'Zoth is responsible for the Emerald Nightmare. Although Malfurion described an "ancient evil" existing in the Rift of Aln, we cannot conclusively say that it was N'Zoth at this point. Same for the being described by the puzzle box. --Tyrsenus (talk) 01:43, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Looking at the 'inspiration' section. Isn't it simply a reference to Cthulhu himself and the city of R'lyeh under the sea? even the 'chant' is similair to "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" from his cult. I'm not sure why the authour seems to think it references something of an offshoot instead. Sounds very much like Cthulhu himself to me rather than his progeny. Also, remember Cthulhu IS all about dreams/sleep. It fits alot more than anything elseMetalmunki (talk)


 * There are references to both Shub-Niggurath (the Black Goat) and Cthulhu in the Puzzle Box. Ny'alotha is clearly a parallel to R'lyeh, though, and the drowned god strongly resembles Cthulhu. Suzaku (talk) 07:00, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

N'Zath
I'm sure I can find the post-- but it is actually N'zath, not N'zoth. Will post the link in a few. Edit: I misread the blue-post, however, why would they use N'Zoth, that is -clearly- a bad choice. You know. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/N%27zoth Found that while I was browsing. Silly silly.Aphetoros (talk) 05:54, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
