Warcraft Ending Explained

In the movie, the orcs, led by a powerful and evil orc named Gul'dan, come to the human world of Azeroth to take over. Gul'dan uses dark magic that takes life from other beings to gain power. The humans, led by King Llane and a warrior named Anduin Lothar, try to defend their land from the orcs.

An orc chief named Durotan does not like Gul'dan's way of doing things and wants to stop him. Durotan challenges Gul'dan to a duel, but Gul'dan cheats by using his dark magic, and Durotan loses and dies.

In the final battle, King Llane asks Garona, who is half-orc and half-human, to kill him. King Llane believes that if Garona kills him, she will gain the respect of the orcs and can help lead them towards peace. Llane hopes this will eventually stop the fighting between humans and orcs.

After Llane's death, Lothar fights and defeats a strong orc named Blackhand in a one-on-one duel. Gul'dan orders the orcs to kill Lothar, but Garona steps in and tells them not to. The orcs listen to her because she killed King Llane and earned their respect.

The movie ends with a baby orc named Go'el, who is set adrift on a river to save him. This baby will grow up to be Thrall, a very important character in the Warcraft games, who will become a great leader of the orcs.

The movie's ending shows the hope that future leaders like Garona and Thrall can bring peace between humans and orcs, ending the cycle of war.
