Nelves Started the Genocide War!

Grandblade-wyrmrest-accord · November 28, 2018, 5:19am

Did Joseph say those words to Shandris? Or did she simply identify an uprising in an enemy organization and decide to back it because it might bring down said enemy organization?

Now, you’re actually addressing the lore. You make a valid point. She may not have known, though he was very open about bringing the Crusade back to it’s roots. And we all know what those roots are. Killing all undead.

But, for the sake of argument, say she didin’t know. the Nleves still backed a genocidal effort against the Forsaken.

The extent that Shandris gives you is this:

Scarlet Crusade are enemies.
This dude Joseph, who Shandris probably knows nothing about and DEFINITELY has not met the guy, is starting a revolution against them.
The revolution succeeding would be a benefit.

This is grasping at straws at best. The Night Elves - if this breadcrumb is canon - backed a coup against the Scarlet Crusade, not against the Forsaken. Their efforts afterwards, which we hear nothing about, were not backed by the Kaldorei. That was all Joseph.

It’s not grasping at straws at all.

But, for the sake of argument, say she didn’t know. the Nelves still backed a genocidal effort against the Forsaken.

No matter how you try to slice it, it still happened.

Grandblade-wyrmrest-accord · November 28, 2018, 5:30am

Why did you quote yourself twice saying the same thing?

Withpuppys-nazgrel · November 28, 2018, 5:31am

unless blizzard has forgotten about it/no longer considers it canon

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:31am

Yeah, something funny going on there when you quote somebody and also copy and paste. I’ll fix it.

Carmageddon-hyjal · November 28, 2018, 5:32am

She should see what we’ll do for a pet!

Withpuppys-nazgrel · November 28, 2018, 5:33am

i did too much…

It’s a single crazy dude who can’t even take control of the church he lives in without help. This is not Night Elven support of genocide against the Forsaken. This is Night Elven support of damaging the Scarlet Crusade. Assuming, of course, that these quests that no longer exist should matter at all.

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:34am

really, even if Blizz forgot. It doesn’t get decanonized unless they deliberately do so or overwrite it with new lore. If Blizz ever does tell us they no longer consider it canon, then it obviously won’t be.

Grandblade-wyrmrest-accord · November 28, 2018, 5:34am

Alright then. Then did the Alliance participate in dungeons like Atal’Dazar and Temple of Sethraliss? Brann’s in there talking to us, so it must’ve been us.

Or did the Horde clear out the Deadmines? There’s Horde quests in there, so it must’ve been them.

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:35am

It’s more than asingle dude. The questline references “his boys”.

Withpuppys-nazgrel · November 28, 2018, 5:36am

im pretty sure i did TOS i gave the avatar of sethraliss a boop on her snoot and she went “heck”

Grandblade-wyrmrest-accord · November 28, 2018, 5:37am

God boops.

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:37am

The game happens until Blizz tells us they haven’t. this isn’t new.

Tilgath-garona · November 28, 2018, 5:38am

Do “his boys” talk about killing all undead, or just him? Are we sure they’re actually “his boys” or is it just another of his insane ramblings?

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:40am

Now, you’re reaching. How do we know anything in the game is lore and not just some fevered dream of an Oldgod? Kek.

The Scarlet Crusade isn’t new. It goals are known. It’s roots are known.

Withpuppys-nazgrel · November 28, 2018, 5:40am

i mean, the quest no longer exists. so neither does the dialogue

Jacksprat-the-venture-co · November 28, 2018, 5:41am

Oh… I see. Guess nothing in vanilla happened either.
