Hello everyone! Last week we did the second part of Jaina's story in which we talked
about building up Orgrimmar, Theramore and the relations between the factions, trying
to work towards peace and taking care of her beloved Arthas. So far Jaina has been a voice
of peace on both sides, trying to make the factions come together. Her mindset was very
similar to that of Anduin and they grew very fond of eachother, the prince seeing her as
an aunt. Together they tried to keep Varian Wrynn under control as the king's history
with the Horde has seen nothing but pain and suffering, the murder of his father, the fall
of stormwind, enslaved as a gladiator... Varian's time has been rough and being split and reformed
by Onyxia has left him unbalanced. Rage often boiled at the surface, striking out not only
the battlefield where it suited him, but also towards those he loved. A good example of
this is just before the cataclysm happened, the war against the lich king was over and
the Alliance and Horde had agreed to end hostilities towards eachother. There was a ceremony in
Stormwing to honor the thousands who had died in the war, but night elf sentinels showed
up with dire news. The Horde had attacked Ashenvale and the treaty had been broken.
It wasn't a mere act of aggression from the past, expected bumps in the road for the
treaty, it was a slaughter. They had been unable to recover the bodies because they
had been methodically chopped into several pieces. And those pieces were taken away by
carrion eaters. This was after they had been skinned and they were not sure if they were
alive for that or not. The skins were hung like linens from a nearby tree. And on that
tree, written in elven blood, were Horde Symbols... Varian quickly called for Thrall's head.
The orcs had done this, the Horde had to pay but Jaina threw back at him that they didn't
know if it was the Horde. She fought and bled with Thrall, could not believe he would order
this. Is Varian responsible for all humans, like the defias brotherhood that took his
wife's life? This pissed of Varian, Lo'Gosh came out to play dirty and he asked her what
if he's right and she's wrong? She had been a poor judge of character in the past.
Now he was throwing Arthas at her, but none of them could have predicted what he would
become. This may be, but Varian wasn't making the same mistake twice and she was. If she
had seen what Arthas would become, would she have tried to stop him? Would she have the
guts to kill her lover, or would she have stood by, peace at all costs, a mewling little
pacifist who – Father!'
The word was uttered by Anduin, shock and bitter disappointment in his father clear
on his face. Like I said, Varian's rage hurt those around him and while he would work
on trying to find balance, harness that rage inside, Jaina continued negotiations and trying
to work both sides towards a brighter future. Yet with the world in turmoil, one of her
best allies in this quest, warchief thrall, decided the time had come to return to his
ancestral lands to figure out what was going on. He decided to leave Garrosh Hellscream
behind as warchief of the Horde, despite several voices telling him that this was a bad idea,
including Garrosh himself, he had made up his mind and left the son of Grommash in charge.
You might remember Garrosh being quite against the idea of working together with the alliance
and taking on the mantle of leadership only encouraged him to indulge his warlike ways.
He believed the horde was being too timid. The war had depleted their resources, the
elemental turmoil only made things worse. After thrall had departed, garrosh turned
his gaze northwest to the lush forest of ashenvale. It was a land of plenty and it was well within
the horde's reach. Most of the region belonged to the night elves but that did not stop garrosh
from sending troops into the woodlands. He was not interested in asking the alliance
for resources or trading for them. Why would he do that, when he could simply take what
he wanted by force. The horde's new incursion into ashenvale enraged the alliance. Tensions
between the factions flared and open war seemed inevitable. Some of the horde's members
welcomed these bolds and aggresive maneuvers, but cairne bloodhoof, leader of the tauren
did not. He dideverything he could to reason with the acting warchief and prevent bloodshed.
In carine's eyes, garrosh was leading the horde down a a dangerous path, one that would
inevitable destroy it. The warchief did not listen to his wisdom, and so cairne spoke
the only language the orc would understand. He challenged garrosh to a mak'gora, a ritiaulistic
duel. Before a crowd of onlookers, the tauren and the orc fought for the future of the horde
itself. On one side stood the promise of a peaceful future. On the other, the promise
of blood and conquest.
"Garrosh, you are not fit to rule the horde."
It was because of Magatha Grimtotem that blood and conquest won that day. She had dreamed
of seizing her race's capital, thunder bluff, and asserting control over all tauren. Only
cairne had stood in her way so she had secrely, without his knowledge coated garrosh's weapon
gorehowl with poison. So it was that the tauren who had lived his life with honor died betrayed.
After the duel, magatha led a coup in thunder bluff and seized the city. Yet her victory
was short lived. Cairne's son, Baine bloodhoof was warned of the attack and made his escape.
He didn't exactly know who he could trust at that point. Was Garrosh perhaps in on the
betrayel? So instead they turned to the one their former warchief had trusted, Lady Jaina
at Theramore. It was around this time that Magni Bronzebeard used an ancient titan ritual
to also figure out what was going on with the land and turned himself into a crystal.
His daughter Moira made use of this oppertunity to take over and lock down Ironforge, including
Anduin who was there visiting. Luckily Jaina had given him a hearthstone which he used
to teleport out of there right into a meeting between Baine and Jaina. These three characters
had a very similar mindset towards the world, got a long quite nicely and Jaina decided
to financially aid Baine in retaking the city. Magatha was foolishly hoping for Garrosh to
support her cou, but the warchief could not appreciate the dishonor she had bestowed upon
him. He would never know who would have won in a fair fight so he left her on her own
and Baine decided to banish her and the grimtotem that stayed at her side.
Meanwhile Thrall learned more about his shamanistic roots and Deathwing broke out starting the
expansion of the cataclysm. Jaina didn't play a massive role in fighting Deathwing,
besides showing up at Thrall's wedding, but with a new warchief in charge, a world
in turmoil and resources scarce, the war between the alliance and the horde started to pick
up again. With Garrosh's wish of defeating the night elves and conquering the whole of
Kalimdor, the humans of theramore sent out their armies and tried to establish a military
line between the night elf territory and Theramore. They didn't exactly get the result they
expected with events like Stonetalon mountains, the Barrens and Camp Taurajo but the dream
of peace seemed further away then ever. Varian completed his journey of becoming whole while
accepting the Worgen into the Alliance and defeating Garrosh in Ashenvale, earning himself
the title of high king of the alliance. They were unified like never before. Thrall, now
going by the name Go'ell united with the dragon aspects and together they were able
to save the world, defeat Deathwing and prevent the hour of twilight.
"Today's victory belongs to all who stood against the shadow. You are azeroths true
guardians and the future of this world is in your hands. For the dawning of the age
of mortals has begun. "
And what do the mortals do? Start an even bigger war of course as Garrosh focuses his
gaze on Theramore. If they want to secure Kalimdor then they have to wipe out this human
port so the Horde forces are gathered and get ready for their march. Jaina meets up
with Go'el to see if there isn't anything they can do to stop this. His duties to the
world were done, he had set out and accomplished the near impossible, but go'el was now leader
of the earthen ring and the world still needed their aid to heal. Despite what Garrosh had
done like Cairne and Ashenvale, the alliance had not been perfect either. That had been
innocents, but even Jaian cannot place the blame for the current tensions squarely at
Garrosh's feet. Not all the attacks had been initiated by the Horde and she knew the
truth of his words. There were times when she felt that her words just fall on deaf
ears. The only one who seems to be truly interested in forging a lasting peace is Anduin wrynn
and he's just fourteen. It's difficult to try to be a diplomat and work for real,
solid results when the other side won't acknowledge reason anymore...
"I'm sorry what? Thrall and me? Who keeps spreading that nasty rumor. Besides, everyone
knows I prefer blue over green."
Go'el stays on leading the earthen ring while Jaina returns home where she's visisted
by the blue dragon Kalecgos. His flight has lost the focusing iris, a powerful magical
item previously held within the nexus and he's looking for help to try and track it
down. Jaina turns out to not only be a great help with this, the 2 of them also develop
feelings for eachother.
But times of romance would have to be put on hold as Garrosh lead the Horde towards
Theramore with Northwatch hold as their first goal to claim. Despite some of the leaders
not being too happy about settings sights on theramore. They believed that this would
just piss off the rest of the alliance and cause more trouble then it was worth, they
still stuck to their honor and followed their warchiefs lead if not for the sake of their
people. Northwatch was a tough battle, but Garrosh had some tricks up his sleeve. He
had his shamans summon molten giants to make quick work of the enemy which Baine couldn't
exactly appreciate. The world was still healing from the cataclysm, this was an afront to
the earthmother! What was Garrosh thinking? Not only that, he was also struggling with
the upcoming battle as he remembered how Jaina had been there for him when he needed aid
the most. He decided that although he would not shrug away from his duties to the horde,
he would not let jaina be caught unawares. Perhaps he could save some innocent lives
by sending her a messenger, a warning that the Horde was on the move. Some might call
this an act of treason, but I can't imagine Garrosh being too mad about it as it worked
quite well for his plans. He actually held his troops back giving Jaina the time to gather
allies for the defense of theramore. The alliance, the Kirin tor including their leader Rhonin
and even the blue dragon kalecgos all offered their aid to lady Jaina Proudmoore.
When Garrosh did finally send his troops out they stood shoulder to shoulder trying to
hold the line. The Horde breached their gates because of a traitor from within, Thalen Songweaver
recommended by Rhonin himself to join them, actively worked against them and the gates
splintered. The traitor was taken captive and would later be saved by members of the
horde, but the battle at theramore wasn't over quite yet. Kalec dropped trees and boulders
from the sky to block the entrances, trying to trap the Horde within. They had no choice
but to call the retreat, Jaina couldn't believed it, they had won...they had actually
won the day...
"Hehe we're going to turn this place into a sinkhole."
As it turns out, it was the Horde who had taken the focusin iris and turned it into
a bomb. They could see it coming of course, but their flyers had been neutralized and
Kalec was blown out of the sky with canon fire. Rhonin could see it coming and decided
to make the ultimate sacrifice by drawing the bomb onto himself and into their protective
magics. It would not hold the explosion, it would not save everyone, but it was the best
that he could do. Jaina tried to protest, tried to argue, tried to find a way for him
not to kill himself. She would not abandon him, maybe together they could divert it but
it was too late. The sky galleon released its cargo. She would never remember exactly
what happened next. She felt herself being both pushed and pulled toward the still-whirling
portal entrance, a portal held by Rhonin. She shouted in protest, trying to tug herself
free and craned her neck to look back just in time to see hell. The world went absolutely
white. The towered shattered. Rhonin's body, standing tall, arms oustrechted as he glared
defiantly as his fate, turned suddenly purple. He was frozen in time for a fraction of a
heartbeat; then the exploded in a cloud of lavender ash. As the portal whirled closed
and Jaina was dragged farher and farther away, she saw a violet ocean of arcane energy wash
over Theramore. Cries of utter, absolute, depthless terror assaulted her ears, and then
she knew no more...
Rhonin's heroic sacrifice saved the life of his beloved wife Vereesa Windrunner as
well as Shandris Feathermoon, Kalecgos and Jaina. But many were caught in the explosion.
Rhonin himself of course, Archmage Tervosh. Tiras'alan who traveled all the way from Outland
as word of Jaina's great deeds and efforts for peace had even reached Shattrath City.
Admiral Tarlen Aubrey and Tari Cogg. General Marcus Jonathan, for many years a stalward
guardian at the stormwind gates. Amara Leeson and Thoder Windermere. Pained, a bodyguard
assigned to Jaina by Tyrande as they fought at the battle of mount hyjal. Thaddus Stoutblow,
Horran Redmane and Kinndy Sparkshine, Jaina's new and young apprentice.
When Baine looked upon the explosion, tears ran down his muzzle, and he made no effort
to wipe them away. He stood surrounded by throngs of cheering Horde, but as he looked
around, he saw, illuminated by the ghostly arcane glow, faces that wore his own expression
of shock and revulsion. Did none of them see? Baine couldn't understand it. So many, too
many, seemed happy at beholding the dead city and crowded with corpses of people who had
died in a horribly and painful fashion. They were happy at being tricked into a battle
against theramore when all along garrosh had had the means to win without sacrifing a single
horde life. Baine was not sure which act he despised more.
Jaina was saved by Rhonin, but the diplomat, the peaceseeker was gone. The transformation
was visible for all to see as the explosion of the bomb had turned her hair white with
a single blonde streek of the past. Her eyes too were glowing white but on the inside the
pain was unbearable. When she returned to theramore to look for any survivors, she saw
the corpses of those who had fought with her eerily floating in the air. Not even the rats
had survived the attack and her new apprentice, Kinndy Sparkshine, crumbled into violet dust
at her touch. Jaina screamed. She screamed in utter horrror, frantically gathering up
the crstalline poweder that was all that remained of a smart, lively, young woman. She screamed
in loss, in grief, in guilt, and then most of all in rage. Rage at the Horde. Rage at
Garrosh Hellscream, rage at those who followed him. Rage at Baine Bloodhoof, who had warned
her but had nonetheless permitted this to happen. Had perhaps known this was going to
happen. Her screaming turned to racking, hoarse sobs that ripped her throat. She kepft lifting
handfuls of the purple sand, trying to hold on to Kinndy, her sobbing increasing as the
dust persisted in trickling through her fingers. This wasn't war. This wasn't even murder.
This was obliteration done at a comfortable distance. Killing in the most brutal and cowardly
fashion Jaina could conceive of. She did not find any survivors, but she did
encounter a group of orcs poking around the debris, laughing too eachother, looting of
the dead.
"No one can protect you! Kill the proudmoore wench and bring me that bomb!
Your people are dispicable cowards, orcs. Youre nothing more then rabbit dogs and you
will be put down. Brave words mage, I will spit in your face
when you beg for mercy." "YOu spit on mercy? Then you will have none!
You want carnage? Garrosh will have more blood then he ever bargained for."
"ROar ill bring the warchief your head!"
She recovered the focusing iris and set out to gain allies in her quest for vengeance,
but found rejection on all sides. Funny enough where in the past she had to hold Varian back,
now the roles were reversed. The king had found balanace, make no mistake they would
make the Horde pay but on their terms. They could not rush in, they had to be smarter
then that, rebuild, gather their forces. With the focusin iris she believed they could destroy
Orgrimmar just as surely as they had destroyed Theramore but they needed to act now, when
their armies are foolishly gathered together in Orgrimmar. Anduin tried to reason, surely
not everyone amongst the Horde agreed with what happened. The tauren for instance and
even most orcs prize honor, but for Jaina it was far too late for that. There's no
hope for peace; there's no time for stragey. She has their ruination in her graps and they're
a fool for not seizing the chance. She turned her back on them both as they tried to calm
her down, tried to make her listen, but she would not. Her next stop lead her to Dalaran
where she asked the aid of the Kirin Tor.
Vereesa Windrunner had returned to Dalaran after the battle and she was as wounded as
Jaina was, even more perhaps with now being a widow and having to raise their twins by
herself. Jaina told her about the final moments with Rhoninm that all he cared about were
two things when he died. he wanted to make sure his beloved would survive and that Jaina
would survive. He bought their lives with his own, and Jaina doesn't understand why
he saved her. Theramore was her city; she should have died for it. But he was the one
who died. And she will not forget that, not as long as she draws breath. She will ure
the council to make sure the Horde is never, ever in so powerful a position again. That
no one else has to suffer as they have. Vereesa's lips curved into a trembling smile, and the
next thig the mage knew, the two women were hugging each other tightly, and Jaina felt
warm tears against her neck.
While she waited on their ruling, she also visited the sparkshine family. She had planned
to be eloquent, to praise Kinndy as the girl deserved. To give her bereaved family comfort,
to let them know that Kinndy had fought well and bravely, that she had been a light to
everyone who knew her. That she died defending others. What burst from Jaina's lips was
'I'm sorry, I'm so....so sorry."And for several long moments it was the sparkshines
who gave Jaina Proudmoore comfort. Windle lights the streetlights in the city and with
special permission, he lights them in honor of his daughter. The golden light was tracing
the shape of a laughing gnome girl with pigtails. When the sketch was done, it came to life
for a moment, small hands covering a giggling mouths, and Jaina could have sworn she heard
Kinndy's voice. She glanced down with blurred vision at Windle and saw the gnome, too, wept,
though his eyes crinkled a loving smile...
Despite her wishes, Khadgar lets her know that the Kirin Tor will not join her in this
slaughter. There are innocents in orgrimmar, people who never marched on theramore, an
orphenage even...but Jaina sees no innocents, only those that are being taught to hate them
and will one day march for the Horde. Before Khadgar could speak, she had already conjured
a portal to the library of dalaran, stealing a book with information on the focusing iris,
if nobody was going to help her, then she was going to do it herself. Before finally
leaving the city she made a quick trip to the statue of Antonidas and there she ran
into Kalecgos again who was still busy looking for the iris. He too was asked to join her,
to help her destroy the horde, but he can't ... This hatred it wasn't her. The jaina
he knew still sought peace, still tried to understand even as she prepared to defend
her people. He can't believe she truly wants to perpetrate the same horror on them as they
did to theramore. This is me...this is who the horde made when
they dropped that cursed bomb on my city. You don't want to help me? You don't hear
the voices that cry out for justice? FIne. Don't help me, but whatever you do, do not
get in my way...
Voices from all sides told her to stop and think, to not go through with this, but Jaina
refused to listen. She spend days working her magic gathering elemental forces of water
to create a massive tidal wave and flood all of orgrimmar. The men, women and children
all would feel the pain she had felt, but the elements did not want to do this, screamed
out in protest. Their cries of anguish were heard by Go'el and he found his old friend
about to make a huge mistake. It took everything he had just to hold the tidalwave in place.
Jaina was wounded, anguished, placed the blame of Theramore squarly at Thrall's feet. He
left garrosh in charge of the horde. She had begged him to come back, to remove him from
power. She knew he would do something terrible one day and he has. Garrosh may have done
this – but she blames him for giving him the power to do so. The words shocked the
earth shaman and their battle was intense. Nothing he said reached her, all he could
do was focus on that tidal wave and while he was not ready to take Jaina's life, she
felt no such reservations. Thankfully, Kalecgos showed up in search of the focusing Iris and
he found it together with its dark mistress. He understood her loss and knew that what
she felt, but regardless if she claimed her vengeance or not, the people she had lost
would not come back. Jaina's hurting and the Horde must pay. Thrall agreed, the Horde
had to pay but not by her hand, not this way. There is justice and there is vengeance. She
must see the difference between the two or else she'd betrayed those who loved her.
Garrosh is a thief and a coward and a butcher but she was doing precisely what he had – right
down to using the same artifact that had obliterated theramore. Is this what she wanted? To be
remmebered as a garrosh by her own people? I am doing what I know to be right, she shouted
as did Arthas, Kalec responded when he slaughtered everyone in Stratholme. And he at least didn't
act with hate in his heart toward those he killed. Is this what her lagacy was going
to be, to be another garrosh another arthas?
"Jaina...? I'm sorry Arthas, I can watch you do this."
No...she decided...she would not. For what he has done, Garrosh can be nothing but her
enemy and the Horde as well, as long as he is their warchief. She would not use the elementals
gathered to flood all of orgrimmar, instead she would use it to defend her people. Go'el
went back to the earthen ring, the former friends knowing that this good bye meant the
end of their friendship for so many years, so cherished and championed by both. It would
be a long, long time, if ever – before Jaina could call Trall friend again. And she knew
he knew it. Kalec stayed at Jaina's side and offered to carry her where ever she wished.
She wanted to see orgrimmar with her own eyes and on route they discovered that Varian and
the Alliance fleet had also made their way here. Despite their clever planning, Garrosh
had his own tricks to use against them. He had his shaman raise kraken from the deep,
kraken with huge tentacles that whipped about vessels, closing around it in a parody of
a loving embrace. The warchief did not just send the creatures of the deep to do his fighting,
he too, gorehowl in hand, jumped into the fight. Varian saw that despite the Horde fleet
being vastly outnumbers, Garrosh's tactics of using the kraken was doing insane amounts
of damage. They would have probably lost the whole fleet was it not for Jaina and Kalecgos,
sending her water elementals to save the fleet. She had not expected them to be here, she
thought that they would focus on breaking the blockade at Darkshore or Feathermoon Stronghold.
If she had truly send out her tidal wave...she would have destroyed both Orgrimmar and the
whole Alliance fleet. Luckily that didn't happen and Jaina was able to turn the tide
of battle. She and the alliance were able to defeat the Horde and reclaim Northwatch
hold.
Together with Kalec she visited Theramore once more, not to rage and hate but to observe
and mourn. The love between the blue and the mage was still growing and she wondered where
to go next, what she wanted in this world. She still cared for peace, but she's no
longer who she was. She doesn't burn for vengeance, but neither is she the woman who
longed so much for harmony between the Horde and the Alliance. There can't be harmony,
not while Garrosh leads the Horde, not after what he has done. She doesn't believe peace
is the answer anymore which means...she doesn't know where she belongs. Kalec thinks she does,
she wanted to go home...Dalaran and the Kirin Tor. She offered her services to them, but
they did not just want her as a member, they actually wanted her to become their leader.
The reason why Rhonin had saved her instead of himself was because of a prophecy made
by the red dragon korialstraz. After the red comes the silvers,
She who was golden and bright; The proud lady humbled and bitter
Shall now turn her thoughts to the fight. Sapphire to diamond she gleams now,
The Kirin Tor leader who comes, 'QUeen' of a kingdom now fallen,
Marching to war's martial drums. Be ye warned – the tides of war
At last shall break upon the shore.
But to just choose her based on this, she couldn't imagine yet Aethas explained that
it wasn't just because of this prophecy. She had always been strong in power and character.
Even when tested and tried. And when she faced both an unimaginable horrror and an inconceivable
temptation – and were perhaps tainted by the effects of the mana bomb – she still
chose a path that was fair and just, rathen then vengeful and dark. Yet she did not do
this alone, she had help from Kalec to show her the right path so the blue also decided
to join the kirin tor.
And so it was that Lady Jaina Proudmoore became the leader of the kirin tor, knowing full
well that the world could not be safe with garrosh hellscream as the leader of the Horde.
The warchief had lost the battle, but was far from defeated. Garrosh believed that they
were simply thinking too small. Next time they would have to go bigger, more
elements, more kraken, more of everything. Yet there are voices amongst the Horde that
do not believe his actions, his way of warfare are the way to go. Baine wondered if Garrosh
was mad with power or simply mad. The friction between the alliance and the Horde and within
the Horde itself would make its way to a land previously covered by strange mists, but that's
a story we'll save for next week as then we'll finish up the story of Jaina Proudmoore.
