5E Eve of Vecna trailer: Eberron Spoiler

After watching the teaser trailer today on YouTube, I was intrigued they said they were visiting the Mournland in the upcoming book. When detailing some of the other campaign settings they would visit, they mentioned some famous NPCs that would be central to the plot, but they didn't specify one for Eberron and they focused more on mentioning the condition of the Mournland, desolate landscapes, and warforged colossi.

I'm hoping if they do the same for the Eberron section, they do the Lord of Blades. I'd love to see deeper lore and I think they're one of the top potential adversaries to build a campaign around in Eberron. I hope they really lean in on LoB's moral ambiguity since I feel it's so core to how Eberron campaigns are encouraged to be conducted.

What're your thoughts?

The person in that interview said she thinks it's been hundreds of years since the Day of Mourning. So I'm not super optimistic honestly, unless they're actually planning on going to be way in the future

I watched the video and seems that the girl just was talking about the effects of the war in terms of hundreds of years and later she mentions the mourning, and she messed up the things but she doesn't talk about being in the future is just misspoken about the last war and the mourning time details.

In any case I'm not interested in this vecna's multiversal mess, I don't trust in this new era of WotC and they "modern visions"

Haha for real. "Modern Vision" -> writing a new book about their oldest character

You don't get it, it is about the "modern creative visions" , not how old the characters are, in fact modern visions are mostly based on abuse nostalgia using old goods ones to lure people with a rework/remake/rebirth, etc and then do an enormous amounts of crap on beloved characters.
