Remind me again why Nightborne should be bothered?

Seriously.

I’m playing remix and I’ve created another Nightborne character, a refugee priestess of Elune, and now I’m thinking of Midnight and I’m just like…why?

History shows us that Nightelves and Blood Elves came from a splinter of factions that decided to abandoned the Nightborne and subject them to slavery for 10,000 years because they thought Suramar was gone.

But now some dagger pretending to be an Elf is attacking Quel’thelas and they suddenly need to take up arms to help those who abandoned them? Sure they helped them escape the legion, but I mean, that’s just canceling their debt for abandoning the Nightborne.

Well, basically the Nightborne joined the Horde because they thought the Blood Elves were hot.

So that’s all there’s to it. You’re gonna help the Blood Elves because they are cute.

Suramar literally did not show a single sign of life for 10 millenia because the city’s leadership thought they were the last elves alive until Elisande found out that wasn’t true, the Legion was also on its way, and immediately decided to surrender against the advice of much of her council because she decided to trust people like the chief botanist and the head astromancer who went completely insane.

A lot of shal’dorei have been enthusiastically joining the reliquary to study what’s left of the old imperial ruins, and more than a few want to see the world. Thalyssra has also been fairly enthusiastic about rekindling ties with the remaining elves although that didn’t go without issues (even then the current nightborne leadership basically negotiated a truce between the elves in the middle of the fourth war that among other things had the sentinels and farstriders running operations together before the kaldorei even signed a peace treaty with the rest of the horde)

Look, the animal motif poetry is clearly Quel’thalas’s greatest asset (I love Ammatice’s stuff)
