![]() ![]() This changed in WC3 to where Archimonde was second in command or something of the sort.Ħ. Also in WC2, The Eredar (All of Them) were demonic beings and Kil'Jeaden was commander of the Legion. Not to mention that it was established that Deathwing died in WC2.ĥ. Neither of them were Dragon aspects or anything of the sort. In WC2, Deathwing was a Dragon of terror who sided with the Horde, then went to Draenor and Alexstraza was the Dragonqueen. (Side Note: WoW also retconned the High Elves further as Blood Elves were only the followers of Kael'Thus who followed him into Outland, not all High Elves like how WoW established.)Ĥ. High Elves, even though the used arcane magic were more nature-based and there were High Elf Druids that served alongside Humans during the Second War.
