What's the best way to catch up on the story of WoW? In-game, preferably. I finished up in Zandalar and now I'm in Nazjatar and... Who the hell is MOTHER? Why is there a big-ass sword jammed into Silithus? I feel like the 0-to-hero path thru Zandalar skipped... A lot of steps. So what's the best way for me to play catch-up?

EDIT: For reference, before this year the last time I seriously played WoW was WotLK.

I know you said in game preferably, but I do think it’s worth giving a shout out to Nobbel on YouTube; his lore videos are really engaging and thorough, and you can often find videos on specific topics (like the story of Sylvanas) where he compiles history from several sources into a video. It’s worth a look if you’re really interested in the lore, because for better or worse the game itself sometimes only touches on events that have more depth in other sources.
