Lore

Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
Argus, "the emerald star", was a titan world-soul found by Sargeras when he visited the planet Argus where the eredar dwelled. The slumbering titan was tortured beyond redemption by the Burning Legion who harnessed his power to fuel the demons' infinite army, allowing them to endlessly and rapidly regenerate in the Twisting Nether. The Legion's connection to the world-soul had to be severed in order to bring an end to the Burning Crusade once and for all. To do this, the Pantheon brought Argus' soul to their Seat, where he was defeated by the adventurers of Azeroth. The titans then used the last of Argus' power to imprison his master Sargeras forever.
When Argus died, his soul traveled to the Shadowlands, where it slammed into the Arbiter and disabled her, as the soul of a titan is not intended to be sent there. This was a result of the nathrezim, secret agents of  The Jailer who had infiltrated the Burning Legion long ago, who convinced Sargeras to let them twist Argus' soul with Death magic in order to power a resurrection engine for his demonic armies. In actuality, the nathrezim had done this in order to turn Argus into a "death titan", using its soul as a "maul with which to crush the Arbiter" as part of their master's plans.
Azeroth was described as a "much more powerful" world-soul than Argus.
