PersonalityThe grown-ups are always trying to tell us scary stories about it and how it's so dangerous, with lots of demons, and stuff.

<Salandria rolls her eyes.>The stories don't even come close to how cool this place is. It's amazing!One day soon, I'm going to be a powerful mage, or maybe a warlock. I'm gonna have to learn about some of the elemental forces!I'm not sure what I want to be. Maybe a mage or a warlock, or a Blood Knight, like I said before? Or maybe... A rock star!!Did you see that? They were cheering for me!! I felt the power and the energy! I am going to be a rock star when I grow up!DragonsThis girl has done nothing, and will not be held accountable for what she might do, or fail to do, in the future.Toy DragonAwesome! A dragon of my very own! Someday I plan to own a real one.

<Salandria slyly eyes her new toy, the gears within her mind turning.>AdoptionLady Liadrin, the leader of the Blood Knights, has asked that I be released to her custody for training in Silvermoon City!Salandria in 9.2.5Warning: This section contains spoilers from 9.2.5Let us run a race.

Comment by RellyneIt seems seems like they're setting up for the horde to be the antagonists of the next expansion, again.

Never change blizz.Comment by LautnerThis fits with the blood elf orphan. Elves age the same as humans until they mature. Then they stay as young adults for a very long time. Socially this girl won't be respected for another 100 years.

The same can't be said for her draenei counterpart. The draenei physically mature at a very slow rate.

I'm too lazy to show sources. I know we saw a blood elf grow up at the same pace as a main character in one of the books? And in another based on Outlands they were all, "For years I saw the same children play as if frozen in time" or something of the sort.

I think it's great that all of this lore happened over 15 years ago and that we might could see it play out soon.Comment by DRolavElves age the same as humans until they mature. Then they stay as young adults for a very long time.

Comment by Iceman3317It makes sense for the story to have time progression. But how many characters did we see rise and fall? How old must the classic game character be.... how old must it be to this date? When will the hero die of age?Comment by PlaidiatorI have been wondering what they would do with this character ever since i did the quest the first time! It is so cool they remembered her and are continuing the story. I hope it is a cool story!Comment by TsaraNogaAnother belf doing stuff.
Get some new material.
And thoss those creatures into the Maw.Comment by AlittanAhh I still have her letter from a long time ago! Excited to see her all grown up.Comment by ZaraszThe shortcut is a reference to the wonder woman 1984 movie.Comment by Jagi79Star Wars memes intensify.Comment by GordonBuchatTL;DR - this child will grow up and do great evil. So Children's Week is an opportunity like the classic "if you could go back in time and kill Hitler as a baby" situation, so we need to get her killed during Children's Week, right?Comment by KillerDragainVery cool, this idea of having this apparently irrelevant character which was actually prepared for something bigger years later makes for some great story.Comment by BullseyedIt seems seems like they're setting up for the horde to be the antagonists of the next expansion, again.

This here sounds super interesting and I would love for her to become a "real" character moving forward not just some nice side gig.Comment by Nightngale1It seems seems like they're setting up for the horde to be the antagonists of the next expansion, again.

starting strong into the next expansion.Comment by Kiwianawow, so there are just going to be quests in future that lets people travel to the shadowlands for shiz and giggles, that's so stupid and lore breaking it's beyond laughable.
