Neither of these refute what I wrote. Yes, there are women in positions of authority in the game and yes there are women soldiers. However, I was talking women in noble and royal families. How many of them are nobles or royals?
Even in societies centuries ago, merchants, farmers, etc could marry who they wanted and do what they wanted in a limited fashion, though women were not soldiers. Just like in WoW. Only difference is women in WoW can join the Army/navy.
Jaina was thrust into a position of leadership under extraordinary circumstances when she led survivors to Kalimdor and later helped lead the Kirin Tor and then Kul Tiras.
Based on Calia’s history, we can extrapolate how noble and royal families might operate on Azeroth. Her father set up an arranged marriage for her. She had no say in it. After that fell apart, she married in secret with the hope her father would eventually give his blessing when he found out. Of course, we all know what happened after that.
Oh, and here is another example - Tiffin Wrynn. Her marriage to Varian was also arranged by her noble family with hopes of getting into the House of Nobles in Stormwind.
Reminder that Terenas Menethil had a memorial shrine on the way down to the Forsaken city that is graffiti free, and giant candles which would need to be swapped out every so often. IE, a maintained sign
There’s not much to suggest the Forsaken as a whole hold any enmity towards the Menethil name. Arthas Menethil was the sole recipient of their grudge by all accounts. Even Sylvanas never said a bad word about daddy Menethil.
Allegedly. All I can see is that she is standing besides other Horde leaders. But I’ve seen nothing to confirm that she has formally assumed leadership.
Western Plaguelands showed signs of recovery in Cataclysm, Eastern Plaguelands showed little change, implying that the corruption is reversible but stubborn, so the same would apply to the Dead Scar.
But it implies a passage of time. In that same passage of time, Terenas’ memorial remains unmarred.
