  "account": "For eight years, gamers have been wondering what happened to the massive sword Sargeras attempted to plunge into Azeroth's heart at the end of World of Warcraft: Legion. The sword, known as the Worldsoul, has become a meme and a source of speculation. However, in an interview with WoWHead, associate game director Paul Kubit revealed that the sword was actually located in a screenshot of Azeroth's worldsoul, with a jagged spike pointing towards it. Blizzard has acknowledged the significance of the sword and stated that it will become apparent as players progress through Eclipse. The Worldsoul, a powerful entity, could have potentially prevented Sargeras from turning the sword into a Dark Titan, but its immense power also posed a risk to the entire planet.",
