So since Shadowlands was announced we've heard Maldraxxus described as the origin of Necromancy and inspiration for the Scourge, Liches, and all that stuff. However the more we learn about Shadowlands the more I'm wondering how this fits together? From what I can gather the denizens of Maldraxxus aren't actually undead in the traditional sense of "a spirit imperfectly reattached to the body through shadow magic", but rather they are actually dead spirits given new perfectly fitting but undead-looking (as in rotting flesh, bones, ect.) bodies because they like the aesthetic.
In what way then is Maldraxxus actually related to necromancy as we see it on Azeroth? And if it is necromancy somehow, then why is necromancy universally seen as evil and unnatural on Azeroth when it occurs perfectly naturally and is wielded perfectly honourably/virtuously by its originators in Maldraxxus?
This could I suppose be linked to the question asked elsewhere as to why we were initially told that the Forsaken were emotionally stunted because of the trauma of being raised to undead but now apparently undeath has no moral or emotional repercussions, which is the impression one gets from the characters we meet in Maldraxxus (again if indeed they are undead).
I'll admit to not having played the beta, so can someone tell me if I'm missing something here?
