I made a Warfront, and i saw to Turalyon gets indignant and disgusted because there he saw a paladin in the Horde: Lady Liadrin.
Meanwhile his wife is sucking void energy and he don’t say a thing.
So, tell us oh great enlighted hero of tha Alliance, it’s ok when an Alli use the energy of the void? but it’s wrong when an Horde like Liadrin wield the Light?
You are the worst and more hypocrite character in WoW universe.

That’s not the awkward part. The awkward part is he fought Legion alongside Liadrin on Vindicaar for months… and he just forgot?

If Turalyon it’s not hypocrite, what he is? According to your understanding.

The Paladin class was invented by the Alliance as a response to the Horde’s Death Knights. Turalyon being one of the original four Paladins, he probably feels betrayed by Liadrin for bringing the Paladin class over to the Horde.

And what about his wife bringing the Void to the Alliance?

Again, I’m not sure what you’re driving at with ‘what is he’. A paladin of the Alliance? My point is that his view is not inconsistent. Hypocrisy is claiming a moral standard or judgment you don’t engage in. Saying it is bad for paladins to support the Horde, but the Alliance is fine to use Void, isn’t hypocritical. There’s nothing contradictory there.

I can’t agree with that.

Why? It isn’t contradictory. There’s no double standard.

Alleria is his wife. They’ve been together for a thousand years. He trusts her more than he trusts in the Light, itself. If she says she can control the Void, then he’ll choose to believe in her.

I … tend to just ignore the dialogue that happens to be in the Warfronts. They up a lot of what the Commander’s say for dramatic effect, but it makes a lot of them see completely irrational (or downright crazed). Liadrin and Eitrigg are both examples of this on the Horde.

Well she didn’t do much there and I suspect both him and Alleria didn’t realise that the BEs were part of the Horde at the time. Turalyon and Alleria have only ever really dealt with the demon blood fuelled old horde so their understanding of the modern horde would be pretty ignorant, though current horde behaviour is hardly helping.
It is also the reason I always felt Turalyon would be a bad choice of military leader against the current horde. In Blood and Honor, Tirion noted that the tactics and behaviour the orcs demonstrated in combat was drastically different between the orcs he saw when Eitrigg was rescued as opposed to the Horde they had experience with. Turalyon’s past experience in fighting old horde is actually more of a detriment to fighting the modern horde as it is knowledge built on assumption of an enemy that is now incorrect, a potentially critical flaw in a military leader. Knowing your enemy is very important in effectively combatting them.

He seems to think that the Light is a sentient force that serves Morality while the Void has multiple sentiences with no concern for Morality at all.
The Light to him only blesses the Moral while the Void gives power in hopes to gain access to people’s heads. He fails to realize that the Light is non-sentient and is accessed through willpower.
He and the Lightforged Draenei have bought into the Naaru’s propaganda where the Light is concerned but thanks to Alleria and Velen not where the Void is concerned.

You realize of course, you’re talking about a paladin who was neutral for several expansions, before suddenly becoming a rabid Alliance-hating member of the Horde for ridiculous reasons. His hatred for her is completely 100% justified.
If you found yourself fighting in a war, and discovered that one of the enemy’s commanders was someone who had previously been devoted to saving the world for countless years and now only cared about destroying your faction, wouldn’t you be disgusted with her too?

He don’t like when the enemy use “good magic”, but he says nothing when the Alliance use “bad magic”. So, there is no bad magic or good magic for him actually, he just dislike that his enemy use any kind of magic because is his enemy, while he can tolerate that their own people use any kind of magic. A real Paladin will be very concern about his people ( his wife and voild elfs) were using the Void, but he don’t care. He don’t care all things he learned from the Church an his Order, he is just a bigot.

Well, not exactly. The Alliance didn’t find out about Death Knights until the Horde actually invaded the northern subcontinent, by which time paladins were already being trained.
Alliance paladins came about because the bulk of Stormwind’s clerics were massacred during the First War, so Alonsus Faol concluded that a more heavily armed, armored and martially trained class of battle healer was needed to prevent the same thing from happening to the Alliance.

Ok, let’s say that his love for her is stronger than his loyalty for the Light and his teachings, but what about let her teach to others elfs to suck void energys? he love and trust all those elves as he do with Alleria?
Liadrin can feel the same about Turalyon.

Yes, that’s not hypocritical. He doesn’t care as long as you use as long as it is for a good purpose. Probably thinks paladins should recognize the Horde is fighting on the side of aggression and genocide in this war.
He is a real paladin. This is just a One True Scottsman. Paladins can trust their spouses and allies, despite the magic they use. That said, he probably does worry, seemed to worry in A Thousand Years of War and in Three Sisters. But the Light doesn’t remove free will.
No, if he trusted the teachings of the Church rather than his experiences, then he’d be a bigot. The Church also taught undead were all evil (or seemed to, not sure the specifics) and he was able to overcome that to trust Alonsus Foal.
In seems like you’d prefer he be more bigoted. Point remains, none of this is hypocritical.
