The Sunreavers are Horde. They dont have new relations with the Horde like you said. They sought to be part of the Kirin Tor once again. Yes, the SC wouldnt be there if these events never occurred, but the members of the SC have always been on Dalaran. They arent creating a safe place for the Alliance, They are preventing the Horde from taking over.

I think we can all recall decisions and plot/lore devices Blizzard made up to move the story where they wanted it to go and wound up like

Iron forge dwarves have been missing just as much as any high elves. What’s your point?

No my handsome dude, no, no, no and no.

Also Half-Elves are a bad compromise, it’s actually lore crippled.

well tbf you did see them help the horde in the alliance scenario where you rescue baine

One disgruntled one calls Jaina a murderer
 but they helped the horde with some wicked stuff so they got pay back for what they did
 Jaina did nothing wrong.

Its a more nuanced than that Pretre. The Sunreavers were made up of blood elves who were a part of Dalaran prior to the fall of Quel’thalas. When Aethas left, he did so to renew relationships between Silvermoon and Dalaran. They were not representative of the Horde at that time. After the purge of Dalaran, they were re-absorbed into Quel’thalas to bolster their forces as part of the Horde.

I am not sure of the SC, but the Sunreavers were blood elves who wanted to be part of Dalaran again, and apparently, the Kirin Tor desired them back as well. The SC is just said to be made of high elves and nothing more, but Aethas states blatantly some of his members were there to teach humans in Dalaran.

after they were kicked out of dalaran they went back to silvermoon and joined the blood elves. this is also when jaina reports to wrynn that the kirin tor is no longer neutral and serves the alliance

Haha exactly. They make choices for the game and pull resources from the lore to do so. Sometimes making things up out of thin air cough void elves cough

Can you explain to me how you know the half elf population is so much smaller than the high elf population without using the rpg statistics.

Number of Half-Elves that have been known, even the non canonical ones, don’t pass a tenth.

Ah k. Like i said I dont have a horde toon so I dont know what goes on there.

Wait
what? The Purge of Dalaran counts as “nothing wrong”? That whole chain, on both sides, was written to be morally grey. Afterwards, during Legion, when she’s outvoted 4-2 on the council to re-admit the Sunreavers she poutcrashes out of Dalaran leaving them on their own.

Lead Narrative Designer Dave Kosak has pointed to the purge as a good example of grey morality in Warcraft. Each faction’s quests depict the other in a questionable light, while the quest givers involved (Jaina, Vereesa, Rommath, and Lor’themar) inject their own opinions and inferences into the events unfolding around them. For example, the Alliance quests deal mostly with militant Sunreavers who resist arrest and choose to strike out against them, while the Horde quests draw attention to the Sunreaver civilians swept up in the chaos and portray the Silver Covenant as the aggressive party out for blood.

what’s funny to me is that blizz literally pulled void elves out of their rear to make it “fair” that horde got nightborne. as if there isn’t a night and day friggin difference between lore/effort/everything between the two.
