The part where you "defeat G'huun" is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Player's character literally does the tiniest boop of a slap to a critter bug, the animation is brilliant 😂😂
The highlight of this was Ysera's reactions, I forgot until midway through she was dead for everything that happened.

What to do
Description
Now for our finale! A thrilling performance of the most recent trials on Azathoth! <Featherlight checks his notes.> Azeroth. Whatever. It features an artificial god, a powerful magic ice princess, an infamous queen, and an eldritch abomination of unspeakable terror! Who doesn't love a good drama with a dash of existential horror? You're back to playing yourself, so just... do whatever heroes are supposed to do!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Fourth Wall, er, War
It's time for the next act of your theatrical introduction: the Grand Drama Of Azereth! Azeroth. Right. All these worlds are hard to tell apart. Help set the stage, then come back here. You'll need to play a few other characters before you appear as yourself again. Get a move on!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- For Queen and Grove!
A stunning performance... in more ways than one. So much has transpired on Azeroth in my absence. But there was one dream I did not see portrayed onstage. I dreamt of Tyrande, engulfed in darkness, twisted by anger and a thirst for vengeance.
