Added 2025-04-29 16:01:22 +0000 UTCI feel betrayed by whoever bow and arrow girlie is... and conflicted. She's so cool and bad ass but also I think she's a backstabbing bitch?!

There are 20+ books that tell the story of the Warcraft universe. They go along with the games. If you are interested at all "Arthas: Rise of the Lich King" is one of my favorite books. One of the few i actually own the physical copy of. It's completely fine to read as a stand alone book. It tells the story of the guy that summons the bone dragon lol.

In case you were curious, since I know you like dragons, the skeleton one was Sindragosa and the second firey one was Deathwing. There is so much great lore in the WoW universe, if you ever had the inkling to look into it, I think you would find it interesting. Arthas (also known as the Lich King) and Sylvanas are probably the two most popular characters lore wise. And both of their stories are intertwined together and very interesting. You were right, Sylvanas did fight with Anduin's dad (Varian) in one of the cinematics. The Horde and Alliance team up at different points in time to fight a common/greater threat to them both, but they typically go right back to fighting. Sylvanas was the Ranger-General of the High Elves, until she fought against Arthas and his undead army. Then she became the Queen of the Forsaken, which is the undead race in the game. She aligned them with the Horde and she eventually became Warchief of the horde. As you can see though, she kind of went rogue and in Shadowlands aligned herself with someone called The Jailer. As for why they let Anduin and Thrall (the other orc Saurfang recruited. He also used to be Warchief of the Horde) in after she killed Saurfang, was because of when she said "The Horde is nothing", they realized she wasn't the person/warchief they thought she was, and wasn't really on their side but doing things for her own ambitions. There is so much more I can get into, but thought I'd let you know a little more about the cinematics you saw, especially the Battle for Azeroth ones, since they had the more coherent story here.
