Who said I was referring to that post in a different thread?
You made a claim.
You refuse to source and back up your claim.
Your claim is denied.
Except I did source and backed it up. Not my fault you refuse to read a book.
“Without war to bind them together, the troll factions grew ever more distant and insular. The far-flung strongholds of the different tribes blossomed into vibrant homes, temple cities, and eventually empires in their own right”. Page. 74 Chronicles vol 1.
Page 73 talks about how the Drakkari, Amani and Gurubashi set out from Zandalar to the far corners of Kalimdor to defeat the Aqir. With the Amani finding and killing Kith’ix in what would become Zul’Aman.

Treng: Does the work to source his claims with direct sourced page numbers, maps, and even screenshots with highlights and red circles.
Denona: believe me despite doing nothing tho. you should do my work for me, even though i’ve provided no reason for you to believe I’m being honest in the first place!!
You should add what I referenced in my earlier post tbh.
These are the links to my sources, they’re backups of the lore pages from the old wow webpages.

Ironic that you post this after I just proved you wrong with a direct quote.

Link it, please?
I’m mondo distracted by Denona’s dying on her hill and my wife cooking delicious Ghalbi Jjim.
“provides Dreadmoore with a direct quote proving him wrong”
Dreadmoore: I am still correct because reasons.
Seems my prediction of you refusing to accept the truth was right.

“Read chronicle” is not doing the work.
It’s telling me to do the work for you.
You won’t even provide page numbers, lmao.
You made a claim.
Source it, unless you’re lying.
And as I said, these are the links to the sources.

Why didn’t you just requote it earlier?
I’mma bookmark this and get back to it.

X to doubt. I even pointed out how you missed it right after I posted it.
Because I thought you could read.

Says the person who could not see an obvious post that was directly replying to you. How could you not see it? Then again, it must be hard to see from that ivory glass tower of yours.
Reading.

“asks for sources”
‘provides sources’
“still claims they weren’t given sources”
Dreadmoore everyone.
Didn’t even say sorry when I had to slap his face with it.

Oh, I don’t mean in a sense there should be any of it in-game.
It’s more about how there’s a trend in the narrative to turn justified responses from Nelves against invaders into “oh, they’re xenophobic/racist/supremacist/etc”.
The Horde can be the worst offender, for sure. But humans and the Alliance weren’t supposed to be all about living in balance with the forests.
I mean, Jaina is a terrible example. She literally put up with the Horde and helped kill her own father. Had she not done this for Night Elves… I’d say she’s a Dreadlord.
It’s out of place because there’s a massive area of nuance of fair, justified anger coming from Nelves before they should be called extremists.
Didn’t Maiev plan to kill Malfurion on that awful book? That’s what I mean. They go out of their way to be so radical but not against their enemies, they go against themselves even.
My concern for this character is to fall into the same generic “any Night Elf who doesn’t accept being killed or tolerating what they consider sacred getting destroyed. is a radical extremist, racist of the worst kind”. This card got played way too many times to justify Horde attacking with zero repercussions and Humans becoming the only agents in the conflict.
As for Highborne, that’s a problem in itself. Highborne and post-Sundering Night Elves aren’t on the same footing. It’s trying to undo what caused the rift between those groups.
That card has already been dealt. It is one thing to disagree with your leaders over joining a group consisting of “lesser races”. It is another to intentionally hunt down and kill members of said group for simply existing in said group. And that is why they are being called an extremist.
