Who they are
Xal'atath is the central adversarial force of the current Worldsoul story. The War Within follows her actions around Khaz Algar, Dalaran and the powers beneath Azeroth.
Midnight carries her threat toward Quel'Thalas, where the Voidstorm makes the conflict visible on the surface as well as in hidden plans and artifacts.
Their story belongs to Khaz Algar and also touches Quel'Thalas and Midnight. The first chapter of the Worldsoul Saga, far beneath Azeroth's surface.
