the SC is not alliance you are now entering fanfiction territory. development confirmed what many antis and people without an agenda already know, the SC are just a sanctioned militia by the kirin tor and serve them and dalaran NOT the alliance. im not arguing this point anymore. the SC is not out there like alleria and void elves and only a couple elves live in alliance territory this is straight from development
only a few are said to have never renamed themselves blood elves. 10% of the surviving high elves is far more then ‘a few’
we dont know who these elves are and it doesnt make them automatically ‘alliance aligned’ most ‘high elves’ live in dalaran and dont care about either faction and go back and forth from quel’thalas as they please and imo identify as such to avoid unwanted political confrontations in dalaran. 10% could be a reference to where it stands now. it could be referring to alleria and all the other elves not even on azeroth. it doesnt even make sense for any high elf on azeroth to refuse the rebranding after the national tragedy
quel’lithien hermits also identify as ‘high elf’ but we know for a fact they were around helping rebuild and reclaim their land with blood elves, because the blood elves exiled them. either way you still lose because most modern ‘high elves’ arent even alliance with every lore source and crucially development disagreeing with your interpretation
