-Arrive in Darkshore at night. The moon is black and covering the sun in an unnatural night. It looks like the Ysera cinematic.
-The Horde is based at a goblin camp outside the blighted ruins of Lor'danel.
-Nathanos says all the scouts they've sent out have not come back, that this night is unnatural and the night elves are up to something.
-You kill and raise Vengeful Sentinels, and kill lieutenants to figure out what's going on. None of them tell you, Sira taunts you via talking head after each one.
-You find a wisp and drag it back to camp to look into its memories and find out what happened. Cutscene's not in, but I imagine it's Tyrande going Night Warrior.
-Nathanos tells you to go find Delaryn and raise her, Sylvanas was very specific about wanting Delaryn.
-Sira attacks you at the beach. On her knees, she says Tyrande will come to help her, but then when she dies she says "Where... is she...?"
-Tyrande arrives as Nathanos is setting up the Val'kyr. You have to fight her, Sentinels, and worgen as the Valks do their work. She has a cool new S-shaped glaive.
Nathanos: "How uncouth for the Queen of the...Tree Elves, was it? No that won't do. What are you queen of now?"
Tyrande. "I am no queen. I am the kaldorei's vengeance!"
-Part way into the fight Tyrande turns everything black, you can't see beyond a few feet of you. You get rooted. When the lights come back Malfurion is there helping her.
-Sira and Delaryn are raised. They tell Tyrande they believed in her, but she and Elune abandoned them.
Delaryn: We have nothing left. We are Forsaken.
-Tyrande kills one of the two Valks.
-Fly away on plaguebats, Malfurion promises Tyrande to hunt you down.
-Back at base:
Sira: You made it out. Good. So did I.
Delaryn: <Delaryn doesn't seem to be looking at you> (she's staring at her hand)
-Sira says they all have their reasons for accepting the gift of undeath, but now's not the time to talk. Sylvanas has been dealt a terrible blow today.
-Talk to Nathanos and ask what happens now, he plays a cinematic that's not in. I assume it's night elves preparing since Nathanos is staring into the forest.

Sylvanas murdered thousands of my people, but Elune/Tyrande didn't stop her, so now I'm going to help Sylvanas murder the rest of my people.

Well. I give them a C for effort. They at least tried to explain why the rangers turned on their friends and family. Still kinda seems like mindcontrol/foggy consciousness. Something is clouding their reasoning.
I am getting tired of this character whiplash. First a character is noble. Then something bad happens to them and they immediately go full on psycho. Feels like we are just rehashing Jaina's storyline."I pulled up to moonglade about 7 or 8
and yelled to the trainer "yo resto cya."
Looked at my talent tree, i was finally there.

Literally the only tolerable explanation IS mind control, and it's a shame, because it turns Sylvanas into an even bigger Looney Tune.

Azeroth is just a collection of loosely connected art assets at this point. Any attempt at deciphering a cohesive story is just headcanon. No more than 'moments' on a string. The only plausible explanation left is that our characters are unknowingly stuck in the Caverns of Time and being shot from one timeline to another. No wonder the infinite dragonflight hates us.

I'm guessing what's happening is that Sylvanas isn't mind controlling them, but an evil death god is. Sylvanas just THINKS everyone is as evil and miserable as she is on death so she doesn't think anything is out of the ordinary.

I doubt Sylvanas is doing it. Originally Posted by Vakir
