It was still a cheap kill steal. Would have preferred he sacrificed his life to break the Lich King's control over us and mass rez so we could finish him off. Would have been more honorable dying to the Lich King than some random demon after sitting on his ass for expansions in Hearthglen.
I'd like Blizzard to throw us a curveball. Darion is dead for good and with Tirion no longer an option we go out and find a completely new champion. I'd love to see Dagran Thaurissan come back but doubt that would happen.

WoWpedia says they're still operating out of there and you can see Crowley retreating back into it at the end of the silverpine questline. AFAIK they didn't go anywhere.
I never did Hilsbrad post Cataclysm changes, so I'm not entirely sure what goes on there outside of Southshore getting wrecked and a Plants vs. Zombies minigame. But even not knowing, logically speaking using a strain that powerful isn't something that would benefit the Forsaken.
Uvg says gilneas is abandoned.
Anyway.
The forsaken are trying to create the perfect blight batch that
Kills all the people
Leaves the buildings and ground alone
That evaporates after away

Sylvanas in Stormheim does nothing against the Legion, it's entirely the PC, local Vrykyl serving Havi, and the storm drakes. Sylvanas herself explicitly in her own words prioritizes finding the cure to undeath
I haven't done the Alliance side but I imagine it's the same but with Greymane trying to stop Sylvanas
Who are a nuisance and a distraction against the real enemy.
It only is that to easily triggered crybabies that have a hate boner for the Forsaken for one reason or another. The Blight is merely a strong acid. Again, the horror.
That doesn't address the fact that the Blight was used against the Lich King there. Or that it was its very purpose.
Yeah, not gonna stop. Because I actually am aware of the lore, including what the Blight is. It's you who blow it out of proportion and compare it to nuclear weapons, which is ridiculous.
WPL is a part of Lordaeron. Forsaken claimed Lordaeron. They established bases in WPL and then pushed their enemies out of it. As for Hinterlands, did they Blight the entirety of Hinterlands, or, you know, just their bases?
And so does the Ebon Blade. Here goes one part of the knee-jerk nonsense. And Lich King killed everyone indiscriminately, waged war against the whole world and turned every victim into a slave, most of them mindless. Yup, totally what Sylvanas is doing. If you gouge your eyes out, because no amount of squinting is going to distort the reality this much.
Except no one knew about that, so you can keep your hindsight to yourself. Especially since, guess what, so did the Forsaken then. Again, the Ebon Blade commended them on their work against the Scarlet. Which they carried out since vanilla until MoP.
That was because he thought he'd get Stood in the Fire achievement. Then he wept. Not because of pain of course, but because he learned only being burned by Deathwing counts, not his minions. And Jaina loved the mana bomb. That's why she provoked the Blood Elves. She just wanted them to drop another one on her head and couldn't find another way.
So he's half Rogue? Damn, he's the second Me'dan. Paladin, Rogue, almost Death Knight. Welp, it's good he's dead then, one unholy abomination down.
Retconned in the UVG. Darius, the GLF, and the 7th left the continent after Silverpine. A black dragon and feral pack took up residence between then and the Fangs of the Father chain, and after that the Forsaken just bulldozed and blight bombed the peninsula.
In Hilsbrad you had the Bloodfang pack partner up with the Stormpike to try and force out the Forsaken(since the Gilneans and 7th pussied out), and the Forsaken used an actual nuke on both of them.
