Alright so, I’m sure a lot of you guys know but Merithra, aka Ysera’s Daughter, Has been the Defacto Leader of the green Dragonflight since Ysera’s death.
There’s been a lot of debate inside the flight about whether or not she’s truly the best choice to lead.
How do you guys think this is gonna play out in Dragonflight?
I’d like to see some infighting honestly. Everyone talks about the black dragonflight with Wrathion and Sabellion (dunno if I spelled that right). But honestly I think that there are a lot of really good choices for the next leader of the Green Dragonflight, and seeing them Really go at it would just be cool.
I mean come on, big dragons fighting? who doesn’t wanna watch that.
She seems to be defined by her utter lack of confidence in leadership. A lazy writer would translate that into some sort of heroic act that “proves” herself while simultaneously avoiding that leadership role.
So she’ll probably sacrifice her life energy or some such to re-establish Ysera’s link with Azeroth and the Emerald Dream and allow her to be reborn.

Didn’t we put this to rest with 8.2 or 8.3?
No this is the current setting of Dragonflight as stated on the wiki. After several years the flight is currently questioning her leadership as she isn’t a true aspect.
Misread what you said; thought you were talking about her confidence not the confidence of the greens in her.
I think she’s also defined by her utter lack of development, too. Merithra is supposed to be important supposedly, but she’s pretty much a complete nobody.
At one point they were even planning on killing her off. There’s an unused “Merithra of the Nightmare” NPC.
She was a throwaway NPC in AQ40. They’re just using her as a stopgap appeal to nostalgia while the decide whether or not to resurrect Ysera.
