Is Calia Menethil a traitor?

I recommend just having Calia kill Genn or Tyrande to prove that she is horde in SL tbh.

She’s good with the alliance leaders because she’s the princess of the old alliance. Her brother dated a major alliance character and she’s currently getting very cosy with the brother of the same alliance character.

But just because she may show up to the Proudmoore Winter Veil family get together doesn’t mean she’ll leave the Forsaken out to dry.

In the Before the Storm novel, Saa’ra the naaru in the Netherlight Temple told Calia she needed to do this. So unless they abandon that plot point, Calia has been driven by a Naaru this entire time. So take that as you will.

I didn’t say she belongs TO the Horde, but that she belongs IN the Horde.

AKA she is not out of place. She is not a traitor. She is with her people, the people of Lordaeron.

Calia’s father, Terenas, was king of Lordaeron. The factions are at relative peace right now and so Calia is aiding the Forsaken as they are her people. They were citizens of Lordaeron turned undead.

So basically Calia is an alliance spy.

I could throw scrabble down a flight of stairs and the letters on the ground would make a better story.

Anduin is not a paladin, but how I would dig a Paladin as one of the actual racial leaders in this game.

Your idea of a story is being an edgelord from what I can tell.

Saa’ra isn’t part of the alliance. She’s seems to be on her own. Also… during the priest quest, she was a void god before the priest purified her. So again… I’m pretty sure Calia Menethil has something to do more with Light/Void than Horde/Alliance.

Though to be fair we on the Alliance side have a Blood Elf who within Leguion blah blah blah you know who I am talking about.

Is that the outcome of scrabble stories?

Very unpopular opinion but if lightforged undead were an actual horde race I’d defo play them. They sound fun to play around with.

Do the people calling Calia a traitor/spy and the writers trash also think the same of Alonsus Faol?

“There are things you must do before that peace will be granted to
you. Things that you must understand, that you must integrate into
yourself. People who need your help. What one needs in order to heal
will always come one’s way, but sometimes it is hard to recognize it.
Sometimes the most beautiful and important gifts come wrapped in
pain and blood.”

This is what Saa’ra said to Calia in Before the Storm. Look at that before looking at Calia Menethil. Ask yourself why in the world is a Naaru, one who was recently a Void God, talking to Calia Menethil about “people she needs to save”? Why is a Naaru, manipulating Calia and telling her about what she must do?

Probably, some horde fanatics are like that. Especially since it’s heavily implied that the horde rpg short story was retconned and it was faol that rescued calia from the undercity.

…what? Telling someone that they’ll have to go through some self-reflection when faced with a tragedy or a traumatic event (like…you know…being murdered and resurrected) is now a form of manipulation? That’s a huge theme in the Forsaken’s story. Dealing with the realities that they are no longer the person they once were, that their families will probably see them as monsters, and learning to work through that to try and live “normal” lives.

Calia is no traitor; her people are the people of Lordaeron.
Not the Horde, not the Alliance.
Lordaeron.

It’s completely irrelevant that Lordaeron is aligned with the Horde.

Purge Calia from existence please.
