Blood of the Highborne missing?

Hi,
I would like to know why the story Blood of the Highborne is missing from https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/story#tab=short-stories?

The rest of the stories from the World of Warcraft: Paragons volume are present, including Unbroken, which tells about the Draenei shamans.

It is a shame, because Blood of the Highborne actually details a lot of plot and -why- things happened, I couldn’t even get a copy in English, but had to read it in German (No slant against German people, I speak German and love the country) Which whilst OK, was not -great- because I wasn’t able to -read- it, but I had to stop and check that I had gotten words correct. But yeah, there are some genuine “What the…?” “That actually happened?” moments in the story, as well as a lot of tying up of lore.

And Lor’themar sounds like the most bad-donkey Horde leader after reading it. No spoilers, but dear Gods…he is hardcore.

Should be on there, to be honest, long overdue.

It’s not a problem for me to buy it, but it’s puzzling that only this story is missing.

I don’t know, maybe there are some legal issues related to copyright?

I don’t know but are those in chronological order there?

more or less based on the release time

in terms of release date, yes, in Chronological order in terms of when the things they describe happened, then no, they are not. For example the War of the Shifting Sands happened long before the events in ‘Unbroken’, and “The Shadow of the Sun” happens before “Edge of Night” (As it makes no sense otherwise, why would Sylvanas try blackmailing Lor’themar to fight the Lich King if the Lich King had already been defeated! :smiley: )

They seem to be roughly of a similar time to each other, in how they presented on that page, but they don’t seem to be in exact order of the events they describe.

“Blood of the Highborne” would muddy those waters even more, as the novella -itself- jumps time a bit, which eh, I suppose you can do, when all the characters are Elves…
