The Story of Heaven on Earth

Hello Everyone~

Disclaimer -

Most of my machinimas do not feature much WoW lore although there may eluding to some plot points in. So in this particular machinima, the only WoW lore it features is the Third War when Arthas' scourge attacked upon Quel'thalas.

Please take into mind that; they are no hints detailing to Arthas story and the Val'kyr, although some people may draw connections between Jolene and the Val'kyr. That is not the case, in the reading of the machinima's story, things will clear those misconceptions.


Heaven on Earth



The story of Heaven on Earth resolves around 3 main characters, one named Helios, another one named Jolene, and the last one, who is our protagonist Sieras.

The story's world opens on Sieras's life, what she struggles with, her fears, and desires. Her world is changed when her lover Helios leaves for battle against the scourge in their homeland. Months have passed ever since she last saw or heard news from Helios. Endless distress overwhelms her to the point she is thinking for the worst possible outcome. Instead of believing in her lover's capabilities and strength, is forgotten, put to the side, because of those fears.

Any memory that she remembers of her lover is always shrouded in darkness, although that soon begins to change with the introduction with Jolene. To begin, Jolene, isn't real, Jolene is Sieras, just a side of Sieras that she has forgotten about. The more she realizes her true identity, her life, her love for Helios, her world becomes light again. The once shrouded view she had upon herself, and the future clears away. The memories between her and Helios are more vivid, colorful, beautiful, as they've always been. Jolene-- Sieras is a being that has confidence in her lover, and watches over him in battle, aiding him as she can. The war enticed Sieras into unclear view for the future, with depression consuming her, and her only way finding solace in her torment is thinking of her lover's return.

Throughout those months, Sieras had time to reflect, think, and put into action of what she was going to do. Become Jolene, again, Jolene isn't another character in the story, but Sieras herself. Not a persona, but Sieras' spirit, that she needs to find again, not just for Helios' sake, but for her sake as well. The story is connected between the two parallels of both Jolene and Sieras.

There is another aspect to this story as well, death. Death is inevitable, unforeseen, but in this world's story, certain outcomes can be changed. The battle between the scourge and Quel'thalas' strongest, endured, and Helios and his allies pressed on for as long as they possibly could. Things seemed that they were heading for the better, but things took a side for the worse while no one was looking. Sieras duty as a priestess comes into view as she resurrects, not only Helios, but his allies, and those wounded in the battle endgame.

The story Heaven on Earth is as literal as it sounds, heaven's light stepped upon Earth's path to give  aid to those in need. The story ends, on Sieras dissolving into the light, letting her former shrouded self disappear into the identity that she has always been.

Notes from Siyurka --
As much as I loved the story of Heaven on Earth, I still want things to be left up to interpretation. Because what I learned from film there isn't really a beginning or an end in some stories. Although they are those that do. And this is one of those stories, even still, I want to encourge thinking about this story for yourself, with your worldly views, experiences, and beliefs. That's why I wanted to post the storyline of this machinima 2-3 days after prior uploading the machinima onto YouTube.

This machinima was created around June 17th of last year, and was completed on March 19th of this year (2019). With the exception of letting my good friend see the video first before I show it off to lovely subscribers on YouTube.


Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, it really means a lot to me.
