Non-Gamer Watches #40 || Shadowlands stuff and continues to shamelessly promotes her new book. 

You guys (some of you guys) are KILLING MEEEEE. I have already watched Bastion! Tenet Review and Bastion Reaction: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gGseaM8mKfI.html

Even though Maldraxxus may look evil - It's an important place that has a huge role in how Shadowlands works. They are guardians of the Afterlife.

Maldraxxus is one of four covenants that players can join when they follow Eyebrows into afterlife to save leaders she kidnapped. And Drakka is a mother of Thrall, the guy you said you know him 😊

You're the only reaction channel I watch because you're genuine. Like, you're not a gamer and you don't pander towards it.

There have been multiple Lich Kings. After the last Lich King's defeat, A paladin named Bolvar assumed the mantle of Lich King to keep the undead in check :)

The baby was Thrall aka Green Jesus. Thrall was once Warchief for the Horde and friend of Saurfang. Draka was his Mother and yes, they are the good guys here. Take care and stay safe my friend.

the baby actually survived - it growed to Thrall, leader of horde and shaman who helped save Azeroth a lot

I feel like you and Christie Golden might want to be friends. She does a lot of writing for WoW, and is just a stellar human.

Maldraxxus is basically a giant army meant to protect all the realms of the Shadowlands (The Afterlives of the Warcraft Universe)

Margrave is not a name, but a title. For the rulers of the five houses of Maldraxxus. In real life, it's an English/French version of the word Markgraf, which loosly translates to "marcher count." It was also used as a hereditary title for princes of the Roman Empire. It fits Maldraxxus because, as they are undead, it has the word "grave" in it.

After Maldraxxus you now need to watch "Afterlives: Bastion" & "Afterlives: Ardenweald" They are also pretty good ^-^ As always thanks for this video and keep it up ^-^

That baby is Thrall! Draka is his mama!

The shadowlands is a universe of tousands of different afterlives, basically no matter of what faith or religion you are, after your death you travel into these shadowlands, where you are judged and then sent of into one of the infinite amount of afterlives you belong to. This whole universe has a system to it. There are 4 afterlives, 4 covenants that have a larger role, then just a cool vacation place for the dead people. These 4 "ruling" (for lack of better word) afterlives are: Bastion (there live the messangers, who carry the souls of the dead into the shadowlands), the Maldraxxus! (they are the "police" that ensure the run of the shadowlands), Ardenweald (that is the place where souls of the "immortal" beings go, like deities and spirits etc, basically all souls which can be reincarnated) and Revendreth that is a place for naughty bois and gals, where you have 1 last chance to attone for your sins, otherwise you are send into a place of eternal torment aka "The Maw" (the junkyard). So yeah that is basically the whole system. I hope that it makes even a sliver of sense to you ':D. So yeah Maldraxxus needs to be protected, because without it, the whole system would be broken.

You're on a roll this week. Great to see video a day, even if it's just temporary.

Maldraxxus *was* basically the army of the Shadowlands. Their charge was to defend the realms against outside threats. There's some shady things going on in the Shadowlands due to eyebrows and her new boyfriend the jailer. The Primus (main figurehead of Maldraxxus) is missing, so the leaders of some of the houses have decided to have a bit of a coop. The House of the Chosen, where Drakka is now Baroness is still dedicated to defending the Shadowlands. I don't know if that helps, but "do we want Maldraxxus to be protected?" is a bit of a loaded question

there are 5 realms of the afterlives that we know of, one of which is the maw where the jailer is and rules, and the other 4 are covered in the afterlives shorts, one of which is maldraxxus (the one you watched)... maldraxxus is the part of the afterlife where brave warriors who lived with honor and glory are sent for eternity, and its purpose to defend the shadowlands at all costs and act as the shadowlands' army and military force... so yes, protecting it is important

In case nobody mentioned it, the "Afterlives" shorts are based on the four new zones added in the Shadowlands expansion. They can be watched in any order, and focus heavily on characters met in those zones.

SO far you have watch 2 out of 4 of the shadowlands videos. You have watch Bastion and Maldraxxus and you are missing Ardenweald and Revendreth. Good luck with your new book! :)

Often I wish I could forget my favorite books and games, just so I could experience them for the first time once again. I think that's where the pleasure of watching people delve into these worlds for the first time comes from. Thanks for these videos. Have you given the graphic novels/Manga a try? They're fairly short but have lovely art and a good variety of short stories.

The four realms of the shadowlands all have a purpose that is meant to achieve kind of harmony. Balance in nature, Archiving memories, purifying souls, shedding your burdens etc. Maldraxxus is close to a grunt force strategic military that use a mixture of organic engineering and necromancy to create defenses for the shadowlands.

If that's what your shameless self-promotion looks like, please do it every day. :D

Margrave is a title, but a story rich title. It's the title for someone in charge of a border province or territory, and so it suggests her first boss and trainer was subordinate to the "Margrave." It also lets you know that the place is highly militarized, as it's a military title. She was moving from a shadowy way of waging war to a much more direct way of waging war, and upped her armor, but the two places in their corner of Maldraxxus both seemed dedicated to war, so that seems to fit too. (I know it's all spelled out in the lore elsewhere, I'm just having a nerdgasm over her change in armor, the difference in the lighting of the scenes, and the choice of a single word: Margrave.)

Maldraxxus is the standing army of the Shadowlands. Lately though it has fallen to infighting, which has left Shadowlands with little protection.

Maldraxxus is a realm within Shadowlands where all warrior souls are sent to. There, they would become part of one of 5 houses that originally ruled over the realm, protecting the entirety of the Shadowlands for eternity. However, betrayals and strife eventually caused a war between the houses of Maldraxxus, with at least two of them attacking Bastion, another realm of the Shadowlands, which goes directly against the laws of the Shadowlands.

Margrave is no name, it is a title.

There is never shame in promoting your own work :D , Just keep it up & good luck

'Margrave' isn't a name, it's a title, in feudal Europe. it was the German equivalent of the French 'marquess', ranking above a count and beneath a duke/sovereign prince in terms of authority

You know the baby xD... and Maldraxxus is were the covenant that protect the Shadowlands lives, Draka is the wife of Durotan and the mother of Thrall (Goel), you can see her in Warcraft Movie too

Honestly, I haven't got your book yet, but theres so many books tucked away in libraries and bookshops that no-one reads but are SO GOOD. Your'e so right about the marketing being the hardest part. P.S: Your comments on stuff are the best.

Maldraxxus protects the Shadowlands (Afterlife), so yes you would want to keep Maldraxxus up or else the Shadowlands falls. Which is why someone is trying to undermine them and weaken them.

Also it's kind of crucial that every realm of the dead in the Shadowlands be protected, without one of them it throws the entire order out of balance and that is the badness.

I can't wait to start on the first book and then the second, now THAT'S a good birthday gift for myself this Friday

I think the Shadowlands trailers can be watched in any order...what you don't get from wow is the in-game Oribos story it is what connects the afterlives storylines. Since the expansion just released you should be able to start finding the In game cinematics. It has been fun playing through it.

Right so this is the second of four shorts that Blizzard used to promote the game some weeks ago. It's not a big deal that you watched out of order, but I'd do Bastion next, then Ardenweald, then Revendreth. You'll start to get an idea of what the Afterlife of the Warcraft universe is like, and what the problem is there, and what players will have to deal with once there. When Eyebrows broke the sky, it was so she could go to the other side and cooperate with the Big Bad on the evil plot. We go to thwart her, and save some of our faction leaders that she kidnapped.

There more Shadowlands afterlives trailers you may like to watch. Yes please do more shameless self-promotions.

IDK if you are still reading comments on this but Maldraxxus is effectively the military strength of the Shadowlands (The afterlife) in WoW. Its not a default evil force though there are some evil forces within it, who attempted to side with the jailer and such. Politics.

Maldraxxus is a form of afterlife for warriors. Those who... peaceful afterlife would be distasteful. The five houses mentioned are five armies that specialise in different forms of warfare. The entire realm is meant to hone warrior spirits to be protectors of the afterlife. But without an enemy for too long...

So Thrall (green jesus) 3:34 is the baby at 4:16 she is trying to protect, Draka is the mother of Thrall (human name)/Go'el (real name)

Your best reaction "did you see me trying... ohh yeah, I got it right!". Glad you've watch the Story Trailer, but you've missed other cinematics: Shadowlands: Dark Abduction - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X2992bdBSYU.html Shadowlands Launch Cinematic: “Beyond the Veil” - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nrGPaVUMBl4.html Check the full list here: ru-vid.comvideos

ALL ORCS, NO MATTER WEHEN OR WERE, NO MATTER WHAT CLAN, FAMILY, NATION OR WORLD, ARE ALL BIRN FIGHTERS AND WARRIOR'S! But the difference here: she went from "front line berserker", to "rouge" or "spy".

The remaining houses in Maldraxxus also defending the whole realm of death (the shadowlands) Except of the traitors. But this is just my opinion that the traitors dont follow they codex anymore to protect the shadowlands. Its an on going story right now and everything is really unclear

You missing two other Afterlives cinematics Ardenweald and Revendreth! The voice actor for Draka is Debra Wilson. She is bald with piercings and full of tattos.

That baby, I'm sure somebody told you already; but that baby was Thall.

They are the military that protects the Shadowlands and all of the Afterlives therein. They say that but I think you were asking us something.😊

I never comment on youtube videos but I wanted to comment on yours to let you know how awesome you are!! I've been binging some of your reactions and they're amazing and I love your personality! Very fun to watch, keep it up your videos are great :).

Yep, Maldraxxus is one of the currently four realms of the Shadowlands that we are aware of and they protect the Shadowlands as a whole.

6:48 Didn't know that warrior is able to do this LOL

please watch "For Teldrassil !" or the alternate title "Nathanos' Fate" !!! It's about the queen of the night elves seeking revenge for her people after Sylvanas (eyebrow) killed and burned Teldrassil (the tree and capital of the night elves).

Gotta say, I love these shameless plugs. Perhaps more???

Yes maldraxxus is the military and defensive arm of the shadowlands they protect all of shadowlands and right now in the game draka and her faction are the only one holding to their oath the other houses have either fallen or turned traitor

BEYOND THE VEIL!!!

Draka OP man, she multiclassed Warrior/Rogue.

08:58 Wow that hit home lol.

Well Maldraxxus is just the part of the afterlife. So to keep the balance they should be protected. Yes.

First book is really good. Can't wait to read Dominion.

There are 3 more afterlives videos yet, you have to watch them

3:12 These are called Taurens... and bless you btw 😉

He stores the gravel for his voice in that chin.

Hello! I found your chanel yesterday, and what a surprise in knowing that you are a writer as well! I don't play games but I love WoW and Starcraft and that's how I found you. I went to search for your titles in kindle and marked them for future reading because the conversion from dollar to my country currency makes them a little pricey for the moment. But I want to read what you wrote one day.

Sneezing isn’t a COVID symptom, so you’re okay… As long as no one was in the path of that sneeze… 😶 ‎ I’ve preordered your book on Kobo, by the way. Looking forward to reading it!

i would buy both books if there where avalaible for shiping to my region, Greetings from Argentina, if they ever arrive here let me know.

well, maldraxxus is only 1/4th of the shadowlands afterlives videos so....whats next? bastion? ardenweald? revendreth? all 3 !?😁

Found this 20-min compilation of all Shadowlands cinematics in chronological order (just posted yesterday). You've seen a few of them already, so you could skip those, but maybe the rest of the video might be useful to you? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--FIjC22HfgQ.html

Sadly I live f-word too far away to get your book, but I would totally read it

....I think youd've gotten more out of 'em had you watched them all in order...but glad you're still curious...LLAP n MTFBWY...

Margrave isn't a name, it's a title.

Also... You should watch all of the 5 videos about shadowlands together ;) It'll unravel you more lore about the current things ;)

i actually subbed to audible and listen to the magic required not long ago, dont get me wrong the voice acting was wierd at least for me not offense intended for the voice actor ... but the story was actually really, really good ... definitely getting the 2nd one

Oh...more of world of warcraft, please 😄

Best reaction please react to More wow cinemátics cutscenes and lore please

My "smart" moment of the week: being confused by your initials until I remembered the name Hannah is literally in your YT name XD (in my defence I'm a relatively new subscriber lol)

margrave is noble for german.

Hello, I would be interested to see ( if you want of course) your reaction for TES:Skyrim, Watch dogs legion or witcher 3 blood and wine dlc

Please react to Arthas did nothing wrong. it covers alot of the basic /start story of Warcraft. Pluss makes things easier to understand in regards to how things are now in the story '

Okay... You need some therapy... xD I died ffs xDD XDDDD

I still think you should definitely react to Starcraft 2, it's made by the same studio who created World of Warcraft (Blizzard Entertainment). And it features one of the best female anti hero/ redeemed villian in video game history imo: Sarah Kerrigan. Her story is both tragic and badass (even though I gotta admit there are some cheesy moments xD). I recommend this video (Link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bZ18Ms5FOCE.html), it's got all the cinematics of all 3 expansions, it's 2 hours long, but worth it !❤️

Watch bastion, its the best one

Hannah, im new here and love your reactions. I see youve become some league of legends but could you watch the "tales of runeterra" be glad if you do. Awesome work btw, an let be friends XD

Good video. Interested in your book but I hardly ever read. Is there an audiobook? Otherwise soon as I win the lottery ill buy 100.

Shadowlands cutscenes are boring. More interesting to watch the episode "Lords of War" Lords of War Part One - Kargath

shared

You really need a guy or a girl who knows what and in what order you should watch.

fuck it...you are cool, i buy your book

checkout esports stuff, like csgo

Bad timing for promoting to the WoW crowd given Shadowlands just dropped and no WoW player is going to have time for books for quite a while.

you reacted to the most boring afterlives animated short the other 3 are much better tbh

I hope this doesn't come off wrong, but I don't think it helps your publicity for your books when you then show a lack of care for the linearity of a story and pop videos at random lol

I'll def be giving those books a try!!
