This is false, and said for propaganda reasons. What really happened is that LorâThemar saw serving Sylvannas as doing something just as indefensible as KaelâThas did, but he had to do it because otherwise Sylvannas would unleash the undead on his southern flank.
No sophistry can deny that:
[Here I find myself so close to believing that the ends justify the means. But the ruins of the Magistersâ Terrace will haunt me forever, reminding me of the fate I tempt with that thought. This is the line I walk, finally knowing that the actions I take in necessity are nonetheless indefensible. Those truths can never be reconciled, but sometimes I can hold them both side by side and almost understand. I might call this revelation profound if I were ignorant enough not to realize that I am only learning what Kaelâthas, and Anasterian before him, had also learned in their turns. All we can do is walk the road we are given with such dignity as we can muster, each to our own glory or demise, and pray that there yet remains something of our own hearts when all is said and done. By the Sunwell, I hope that there will remain something of mine.]
Continuing to claim the public lie is a truth is bad faith, because newer lore (WotLK is after BC) proves that the âfriendship and supportâ were political lies to keep the people feeling safe because their ally had their southern flank.
This is the behaviour of enemies not friends. To pretend that this is friendly is Stockhold Syndrome.
I donât have to put words in your mouth, because your position implies the (false) belief that a lie is truth.
