It feels like it all kinda makes a bit of sense though. Just in the aspect where none of the ‘gods’. I use the term loosely, fully care about the lil’ dots on the planets. Light not really caring about their subjects, but just ensuring there is always more subjects to come, ect.
I imagine this is just kinda further showing how any of these big godly leaders don’t give too much of a toss about us, and just wanna ensure their own goals are sorted.
She calls the Nelf her “favourite children.” idk man, I don’t remember the story taking on a Biblical tone where gods are smiting the wicked and asking old men to kill their children even if they really really love them and that we’re dealing with a Goddess that has been depicted in the same vein Odin/Zeus were.
As I said, this feels manufactured. This is a Jaina arch#54, let’s forgive and forget despite these tremendous failures.
I mean she did let 'em die, so again, her goals came as priority. But- Least that’s how I see it. She may care some, but it does seem like, with any of these all powerful figures, they’re gonna put their matters first.
But, tbf. - I think anyone could read for years into this, and still be wrong because Blizz next week will go: “she was forced to do this by a bigger, evil-moon-god.”
I await the amount of Olympicl level Copium snorting from Sylvanas fanboys trying to justify a redemption arc because this all happened because Elune didn’t do nuthin’, because personal respon- no not even that, good writing be damned.
Disappointed that there was no information on why Tyrande’s powers waned last second and whether or not Elune directly contributed to that.
But I don’t see why this paints Elune as the culprit for Teldrassil. She didn’t intervene with the Legion, the Black Empire, the Cataclysm or any other number of arguably more planet-wide catastrophes. Why do people suddenly think she could intervene at Teldrassil? I take it as more of a ‘best of a bad situation’ situation in that she tried to at least make sure their souls had a purpose after the burning, not knowing about the Maw since it would have been a very recent development.
“…and in the wake of tragedy, sent forth the cascade of souls to sustain you.” From the subtitles on the official video. The burning happened regardless, she only responded to it.
