The Titans are deeply invested in our reality, our world, and a very specific «true» timeline — but why? Nobbel87 asks this question in his latest lore speculation video.

Where do the Titans REALLY Come From?
I think it’s an interesting question to consider, especially when looking at the Worldsoul Saga and the true plans of the Titans. The question is: why are beings of Order — why are the Titans — homegrown in our reality?

What is the real purpose of all of their cute little installations slammed into the side of the planet? Do we know everything we need to know about their real intentions for our world?
I had not really considered it before — the difference of the Titans compared to the other cosmic domains. We’ve gotten more story about the different cosmic domains — Light and Shadow, Life and Death, Order and Disorder. The cosmic forces that make up the Warcraft universe, all in this constant tug of war.
Next to that, we’ve learned about different zereths — so a Zereth Mortis for the domain of Death, or a Zereth Ordus for the domain of Order.
We’ve also met the Pantheon of Death, similar to the Titans but connected to the Shadowlands. That’s where they’re created, that’s where they come from, that’s where they can be replaced. With that in mind, I think it's safe to say that each cosmic domain has a similar force or Pantheon or units working for them.
We’ve also seen other forces try to manifest and push their influence into our domain. When the Void Lords wanted to corrupt a Titan, they pooled their powers together and shot out the Old Gods — while the Void Lords are still in their shadowy domain.
The Naaru have been great ambassadors for the domain of Light, even fought great wars when their domain was threatened by Revendreth and the Shadowlands.
So Why Our Reality?
Knowing all that, the question for today is… how come the Titans are born in our reality, in the so-called physical universe? How come the Titans come from the World Souls — they don’t originate from Titan land, from the domain of Order?
That is what we’ve been told after all — that Titans popped into existence after the Warcraft universe came to be. From the Chronicles we learned that,
Even more extraordinary than the naaru were the colossal titans. Their spirits—known as world-souls—formed deep within the fiery core of a small number of worlds. For ages, these nascent titans slumbered, their energies suffusing the celestial bodies they inhabited.
When the titans finally awoke, they did so as living worlds. Cosmic winds howled across their gigantic forms, bodies shrouded in a cloak of stardust, skin crisscrossed with silvery mountain peaks and oceans shimmering with latent magic.
