Will Mu'sha abandon the Tauren?

[MrSaggins]

Just looking at the devastation the Horde has wrought upon Elune's most ardent worshippers, it's hard to imagine her not taking sides in the faction war when the Horde is being lead in the service of death. And yet still, the Tauren remain.

Baine seemed to sneer knowingly as the Horde set out to "Silithus" in A Good War, but he didn't stop Tauren braves, shamen and kodo riders from joining the assault on the Kaldorei either. Will the people of Mulgore still walk in Mu'sha's light? Or have they scorned her and fallen from favor?

And why would he? If he had refused, he'd be branded a traitor and the tauren probably would've been thrown out of the Horde. He was fully aware of the plan, and was clearly not against it. He didn't know about Teldrassil getting burned down however.

Because Elune as such as active history of directly intervening in mortal affairs.....

The Tauren Have the greatest loyalty to the Horde 2nd only to the Darkspear (and the Orcs...but they kinda are the Horde imo, or the foundation for it). The Forsaken and the Blood Elves might have an easier time changing alliances, but not the Tauren. If I remember right, they were facing near extinction until Thrall showed up in WC 3.

Can we stop with that whole "service of death"/"making life her enemy" and all that bullshit. Those are just overly dramatic lines spoken by night elves in an already very dramatic situation.

Baine wanted to find out from Saurfang what the plan was and whose plan it was. Once Saurfang confirmed the plan is his, that was Sufficient for Baine to trust in the mission of the army.

And tauren and nelves have fought and killed each other before, this time the scale was just bigger, so personally i dont see a reason why anything would change from a divine perspective... but then again it is blizz writing it

A necromancer was fighting a druid 10 seconds before that.

Our moral understanding of good and evil does not matter to a god. Or petty quarrels is none of her concern. She only cares about your worship.

Yeah, the last time she did we got the worgen, and that did such a world of good.

Sylvanas isn't a Necromancer.

[Pheraz]

I hope so - I think the whole druidism theme doesn't really fit to the tauren anyways.
When I think of tauren I think of indian cows and then shamans make the best fit.

Would be cool of moonglade and all other druid places would be for nightelves only.

IMHO.

[BadguyNotBadGuy]

aye, but what im saying is that folk seem to be taking the lines of two characters as a direct representation of the narrative being woven... which is wrong. And nelves has a penchant for drama

Tauren are a bunch of hypocrites.
If they really favoured mother nature so much, hey wouldve left the Horde years ago.

All Horde races are in this now. They are all accountable.

[Amaterasu65]

Sylvanas isn't a Necromancer.

Raising dead soldiers to do her bidding as undead puppets is necromancy.

Agreed. Orcs and Forsaken harm nature since ever.

Well, same thing with Elune is, are they even real “god” beings out there? We don’t even know if they are thinking like other creatures or are rather abstract things like the light. It’s not really explained or shown somewhere.

I'm pretty sure he's stuck because he was corresponding with Anduin and Sylvanas knows this and he knows Sylvanas knows it. So he'd basically be a traitor and that puts him/his people at risk so for the time being he's gotta just roll with it? Idk.. I think that could be it.

Yes. All tauren druid characters will be deleted from servers. Seriously, what do you expect?

[Nuggsy]

I'm not saying you're wrong but I think there is a difference between chopping down trees for needed lumber and blighting the landscape.

[MrSaggins]

If I'm to take your question as less than facetious, then I expect this might develop as something along the lines of the orc shamen of Draenor losing their connection to the elements, or the Light abandoning a Paladin. As for it's failure to impact the balance of the game, this could be circumvented with a statement about Zen'tabra helping them or simply ignored.

No it is not overly dramtic lines. In before the storm, she touches azerite and sees a future, a dream for her, of all races killed and raised as forsaken and she rules over them as a not just a warcheif but a godess of death. THAT is her own thoughs that is not a night elf who said that, it was not a High shaman who assumed so. that was her own ideas and dream
