The epilogue is Ruby Sanctum.
They all turned into Leech King years ago.

Hard disagree; Cata was definitely a stumble, but Mists of Pandaria did a lot right, as did Legion. BfA also had its moments, even though it was severely hampered by needlessly obtuse systems.
Shadowlands is where it truly died.
Shadowlands was where I finally stopped. Playing since day one I’ll never forget when I decided to stop. I got the the “fairy land” part of the expansion, was running my Orc Hunter through and then I just stopped and asked myself “What are you doing?” It wasn’t fun. It became a chore to get through the content to the eventual gear grind at the end just like ALL the previous expansions.
I quit in bfa when my guild stopped raiding, came back for shadowlands, and while having a miserable time in the middle of a LFR I thought to myself “why am I playing this?” Then quit because it was just a checklist of chores I didn’t really enjoy.
And since then it’s back again with Dragonflight, The War Within, going into Midnight.
WoW probably will never die.
I started late into Cata and really got going in Mists and absolutely loved it. I think OP is having a “back in my day” nostalgic moment
