I agree it’d be difficult to implement and that’s why I think this lore goes past the time-line of WoW.

I think this is the stuff we’ll see in Wow2/Warcraft4.

From a design standpoint, I see WoW2 having two completely separate NE factions, and Blizzard allowing us to play one of them. Probably Moonglade, since I’d imagine most players “in the know” would want to be on Malfurion/Tyrande’s side.

If you really wanted to push this train of thought, Fandral could be a raid boss, and Teldrassil an instance hub.

I’m glad both of you like the site. Tell your friends.

Yeah same here, I’m the only one in my guild interested in lore, in fact I made a new char just for an in-deep questing, reading all the quests introductions and not just rushing the levels.

It would be rather interesting to see how Blizzard would deal with these ideas. The setup is already in place to definitively say that the entire Night Elf faction is sided with Staghelm and Darnassus, and the Cenarion Circle is their own faction outside of the Alliance (how would the druids feel about siding with the magic-loving humans and gnomes, especially with a rebuilt Gnomeregan?)

Thanks for your comments on Tyrande. She’s one of my favorite characters in WoW lore, and I’m very interested to see where the Temple of the Moon would be taken.

Also, thank you for the site. I love talking lore, and there are very few of my friends who would talk on it.

I think one possible scenario, like you said, is the total separation of NEs, in Darnassus we have all the Fandral’s followers and in Moonglade Manfulrion and his crew.

But this, from a technical/quest line point of view is very difficult, since many horde/alliance players need to go to moonglade to make quests (and there’s also the moon festival special quests) and Darnassus as a capital city won’t allow all this (guards attacking horde, etc.)

Another scenario is Darnassus as a divided city (just like Shatt with Scryers and Aldor) but then the question is: who’s the utter ruler of the city?.
