How will Yrel react to Man'ari? Void Elves?

We don’t know to what degree her barbarism will be? but what we know is that it is enslaving its victims to the point of force through torture.

As if the Scarlet Crusade is nothing compared to what she is going to do later.

Only if Mezten does not forget that light and void are the threats of Azeroth, and we are its food.

I really do not care to be quite honest. I like her new design and your weird whining on the forums isn’t gonna change anything. The end. Have a good weekend! xx

Without the influence of the Light, orcs create the Path of Glory.
She is justified in all she does.

In the end, a few hundred orcs who have made a path of massacres will be nothing, compared to ONE SINGLE Dranei WOMAN who will endanger the entire cosmological universe of Warcraft.

Bringing all souls in alignment and unity with the LIGHT is not a danger to the universe, it is the singular and ultimate goal of all Good individuals. To stymie this goal is to do evil. Denying the Light and doing Evil are synonymous acts.

That’s why the dragons (although those Dragon-cares with powers of friendship) moved away from the power of order so as not to DEPEND on a power that would probably enslave them like the Kirians and their owlpeoples, that’s why the light is the same threat that there is with the void in Azeroth, believe it or not, not only the open heart and his sermons are enough to deceive people like a cult.

I know this was a day ago, but bear with me.

Imagine Medivh’s face when Yrel and the Shiny Goat Collective march out of the Dark Portal.
Yes, the portal was destroyed. But, consider this: instead of a Dark Lord you would have a Queen, not dark, but beautiful, and as terrible as the dawn! Tempestous as the sea, and stronger than the foundations of the earth! All shall love her and despair!

The thing about genocidal maniacs with magic powers, is that they’re not about to let a little thing like ‘rubble’ or ‘the laws of physics’ get in the way of a proper campaigning. Yrel was ready to slaughter the Mag’har; wouldn’t it be wonderful, terrible poetic irony if she paved a new Path to a new Portal? The lingering magics are (probably) still there, and a sufficiently clever artificer could probably make a new Light Portal, possibly without even bothering with the whole stone outline the first one had. There is at least one Naaru still chiming about, and they’re clearly as one-dimensionally direct as they come; they will seek conversion, at any cost, at any distance.

God you people will use this word to describe anyone who wages a war these days.

This is void deception, and you do the work of the void in propagating it. Only in the LIGHT is there salvation. Only in the LIGHT is there peace. All other roads lead to darkness and death.

Personally, I found the character development of Yrel one of the few interesting things blizzard has done in recent memory so I wouldn’t mind seeing her again.

Plus, for all the people whining about the lack of war in warcraft, imagine her showing up with and army and giving the horde and alliance an ultimatum of convert or die for the upcoming showdown with the void and she gets some defectors going over to her side and she basically shakes everything up.

Or they can just have her fade from existence in her trapped, doomed world.

:man_shrugging:

There wont be a reaction. They ruined Yrel then forgot about her. wow lore is so bad they forget half the stuff they write and half the characters.

The destruction of Yrel’s character is one of the worst lore happenings in Wow’s history. They should just retcon the destruction of alt-Draenor entirely.

I don’t see how her hair-style has anything to do with any of that? :eyes:

:point_up:
This.

Braided hair isn’t subject to a singular race, culture or colour of people.
… I seriously don’t understand when people scream ‘Cultural Appropriation’ or ‘Racism’ with the braided hair subject, or attempt to ‘cancel’ others for having them — There’s a handful of cultures & peoples that have done it for yonks, long before societies were all interconnected like they are today.

It’s just arrogance & indifference to suggest otherwise. If anything the ones who scream its cultural appropriation or that they can’t use hairstyles because they’re not the same as they are, is the true discrimination.

Getting more hairstyles for a handful of different races would be great.
~ More customisation options with hair is always a bonus :partying_face:


You do realise that the Celts and the Vikings were two different distinct groups of people with different origins and cultures, right? … :eyes:

And even that aside, even despite Isveria’s mistake @ target of Nordic instead of Celtic, there was Nordic women who had braided hair during the ‘Viking’ ages — Heck, there’s even crafted ‘Viking Artifacts’ at Museums that depict those hairstyles.

… So although Vikings isn’t actually a completely historically accurate TV show, that doesn’t mean every single thing on it was in fact wrong. Afterall, it was inspired from facts & history in the first place to begin with :person_shrugging:

100% in love with what you wrote. 10/10 idea

They said the same about the Titans, or the Kirians, until they know that your soul must not remember, and be only a slave.

go in servers, what a nice phrase for slavery.

The light is just the light, nothing more, something that is not understanding how necromancy is also involved in that energy.

They are going to do it if Blizzard forgets about it and simply stayed in Draenor, it had a lot of potential, but Blizzard does not want to make more mistakes, so it makes the mistake of forgetting content that has failed instead of improving it, like improving Cataclism : Classic instead of launching, and they are going to forget to make classic expansion in the future which will never see MoP and Legion classic as next expansions, which would also trip up WoD.

That’s what I fear, and Yrel had great potential as a slave-owning villain.

And if they move towards their redemption, they’re going to get even worse than Sylvanas’ redemption.

You clearly weren’t paying attention. She had already begun travelling that path during WoD. Her actions in the Mag’har story were the results of natural progression. To you she was evil, to her she was doing the lights will as the Naaru were instructing her.
She likely had the Naaru preaching to her from the time we left to that point about how the light is the only way.

That’s the results of not having balance and having those offering differing opinions.

Her hairstyle isn’t just “braided hair.” Nobody screamed “cultural appropriation,” nobody screamed “racism.” You invented those, either as a strawman (a definitional one, where you fight a bogeyman in your head over things nobody here actually said) or a very bad attempt at gaslighting, where you either try to convince somebody they said something they didn’t, or try to corner them into defending something they didn’t say in order to move goalposts and put them in a less defensive argumentative position. Nothing in the first section of your post addressed anything I said in my post. Either you know this, and are operating in bad faith, or you don’t know this, in which case lol.

You do realize NEITHER groups’ women (or men) have ever been portrayed in traditional art, or have ever had buried bodies discovered with, tight braids on one side of the head and a giant swooping mass on the other side of the head, right? You do realize this in no way represents a traditional style of braiding ones hair, and is in fact very much a modern style in which hair is shaved or braided on the side (usually one side, sometimes two) and left very long on top to comb over in a dramatic swooping fashion? You have some concept, I hope, that the statement I made was in no way arguing that braided hair was a new invention of the past few years, and rather the hairstyle in its entirety is a hyper-modern indication of a style popular in certain media right now which may also be indicative of the tastes and preferences of the creators of that media?

I’m sure you understand and just wanted clarification.

if this happen I’il want to be on his side

I wasn’t saying people did in this thread, yet people do in general. I put the comment there incase it derailed to that later on, given how things were going.

Yeah, I did —

:person_shrugging:
I said I didn’t see how it was relevant. lol

There actually has been traditional art where they’ve depicted those hairstyles.

However braided hairstyle particularly wasn’t common, yet there were instances where parts of their hairstyle or more was evidently seen. It wasn’t very popular but it did exist. History shows that neither gender considered it a ‘mainstay of the culture’ and with women they were primarily only doing it mostly during their unwed years.

(The above is with Nordic culture, Celtic Culture is a tad more diverse & chaotic than the Nordics despite what people may believe due to the ‘Vikings’ age)

To clarify any misunderstandings — I wasn’t arguing with the fact that it may be a modern hairstyle too.

Misunderstanding then.

The rest of your comment comes across as a tad hostile, yet perhaps it was drawn from the misunderstanding.

Anduin needs to earn the throne of Stormwind back now that he was MIA for several years. Taking it back from Turalyon after Turalyon goes cray cray from the light would be a good plot device.

The same Turalyon who tried to kill Illidan after Illidan killed Xe’ra in self-defense because it made him accept an identity he did not want? That “good” Turalyon?

Turalyon and Yrel are the same. They both follow the light. Because of the light, Yrel became a tyrannical zealot. Turalyon is also a zealot. He is just not on the same level as Yrel, yet.
