I am sorry that night elf culture is not what you want it to be. In Shadowlands you will be able to customize a troll to be a blood troll, thats more along the lines of the matriarchy you are looking for I think.
As I have said before, Malfurion banished an entire caste of people, the Highborne, through his own authority, not Tyrandes. He negotiated on behalf of the night elf people to the aspects at Nordrassil which got them immortality. And his order to keep Illidan imprisoned, was still so strongly respected that the guards came to blows with Tyrande her self to keep Illidan imprisoned.
If this is not enough evidence of a Diarchy, Iâm not sure what will be.
Tyrande does say Malfurion was in charge of planning the summitâs defence, while the plan to slow down the Legion long enough to give Malfurion time to do so was Jainaâs plan. Tyrande was the one the archers reported to whenever the undead built a new base.
In the end, both Tyrande and Malfurion were playable, so itâs hard to say if one or the other were really in charge. They probably work well with one another so the difference doesnât really matter.
I think the greatest claim to Tyrande being the over all leader is the fact she was able to make Malfurion co-leader. You canât really do that if you werenât leader in the first place.
They werenât blood trolls, they were just jungle trolls with red war paint that people mistook for blood trolls.
Thereâs bull, as leader she had to be a part of that. Even if that was his choice, Malfurion has a level of respect in the society but sheâs the leader.
She was present at that tribunal and helped make that decision along with Malfurion and Jarod.
He didnât make an agreement for a damn thing! The aspects decided that on their own as a gift for the Kaldoreiâs efforts in the war. Your knowledge of the lore is horrible.
Malfurion made an agreement with Ysera, she blessed the tree, giving the druids easy access to the emerald dream, in exchange they would perform duties in the emerald dream, hence the long hibernation.
Perhaps check up on your own knowledge. Also, no Tyrande had no input on the banishment of the highborne, as Exile of the Highborne, an in game book, says the druids alone banished them.
To note, all of this can be rather moot, as, just as you pretend Broxigar doesnât exist, or how you pretend that it is not the case Eluneâs teachings emphasized love and tolerance for all creatures of Azeroth during the Long Vigil, all anyone has to do is ignore any statement that the Night Elves are matriarchal if it makes more sense to them that theyâre not, and then it doesnât matter what anyone says.
Iâm pretty sure Elune didnt tell her to free Illidan either, she just assumed he would help them, never mind the fact he could have been insane having been down there 10,000 years. If a demi-god told me not to free him because its a bad idea, id consider it, but hey, who am I to judge?
None the less, I think Malfurion and Tyrande make good co-rulers, just both sides of the society were closed off, Priestesses not thinking men could be priests, Druids not thinking women could be Druids. Its better when they are open to all of their people.
That was a decision Yesra made becuase of Malfurionâs efforts. He did not negotiate that or anything else dealing with Nordassil.
I am up to date on it, alsoâŚ
Chronicle is the new and current version. No the in game book. Keep up please.
No Chronicle retconned it. It gives the impression that all the Night Elves or at least not just the druids made the decision. Therefore itâs the new, current, and correct version. Thatâs what happens with retcons. Blizz should have been more specific.
To be fair those npcâs were wardens, not keepers which are what Cenariusâ children are. Wardens are Kaldorei. This is the problem with your constant referencing of W3. Itâs terribly outdated.
No, there were Wardens down there, and 1 keeper of the grove. Not sure why he was down there, but he was titled as a keeper of the grove. Also, no it wasnât a retcon regarding the book because those books dont contradict each other. One says it was the druids, the other says it was the night elves, both of those statements can be correct at once.
They arenât contradictory, so thatâs a reaching conclusion. Thereâs no change between the two statements between one being merely more specific. Whereas The Chronicle is given as a different perspective, but the meaning isnât really changed in those statements.
There were druid Night Elves and Night Elf druids. The only clarification I take is that non-Night Elf druids werenât really involved.
