Yeah but they’re not shown to be all military. They don’t go calling every settlement a Stronghold, there’s a clear difference imo.
Nevermind the absurdity of this ENTIRE DISCUSSION being that some people are downplaying the actual massive shift in your “homeland” and “capital” now being halfway across the world. If not “absolutely 100% no kaldorei exists there” physical abandonment, which I highly doubt was the argument because thats not how blizzard designs things, it shows the cultural focus and idea of home has somehow completely and utterly left the area to the point of giving it 0 consideration as a home. That is massive. That is showing the destruction of the actual racial fantasy.
