Last night I was up thinking random things, as usual for me. One of the things that went threw my mind was, where did Jaina go after she left Dalaran and what does the future have in store for her? As I thought of it I wanted to cry.
For as long as I can remember I have always liked playing mage/wizard characters in fantasy games. Part of it goes back to what made me want to play MMORPGs which was .hack//sign. Incase you have never herd of this show before, it is a anima where a boy playing a MMORPG called the world finds out one day he cant log out of the game and that he is now part of the game. Him and some friends he meats along the way try to find away with in the game it self to help him logout. This show made me want to one day play something like Everquest, though at the time my computer couldn't even run the sims online let alone something like ever quest. So I kind of played Runescape.
The other thing that drew me to this class I think is mages tend to be intelligent, always studying or reading books. Since about 1st grade Iwas pulled out of class to be part of smaller groups to learn reading and math. I was a slow reader and math just seemed impossible to me. By 4th grade I was in special ED classes. I would go to my home room for attendance and then shortly after I would be pulled out to go to my special ED class and then I would return for things like science and social studies. I always felt embarrassed it just made me hate school more having to leave my friends for half the day cause the school decided that I wasn't smart enough to learn what they where learning. It didn't get better in middle school and in high school. I was too embarrassed to do my homework infant of them because I was doing math that they learned in elementary school and middle school. No mater what I just felt dumb and I think being able to escape to be a intelligent class in a fantasy world appealed to me.
I would guess it is no surprise then that Jaina Proudmoore is one of my favorite WoW charter. Even after what happen to her at ttheramore. She kind of goes off her rocker intides of war and then by the end she strikes a balance between her old self and still being untrusting tords the horde. I think this cut seance from Mist of Pandaria land fall best shows this:
Of course as you may or may not know shortly after she goes back off her rocker and kicks the sendori out of Dalaran and any other horde. This made me uneasy but didn't make me hate her. I just felt sad for her. Its hard to truly feel angry at her or to hate her because knowing what happen to her in tides of war it almost feel justified. But even being an alliance player I know overrating the horde off athorth is wrong.
Now this brings us to legion where we see she’s back to being off her rocker again and khadgar has us go with him to meet with the conical of 6 to let the horde back in the kKrin Tor, of course Jaina doesn't like this and leaves the kirin Tor and khadgar takes her spot as leader. Well where did she go? Well what I hope happens is maybe we will help her find that balance again. I would think something like a caverns of time raid or dungeon where we go back to when she was about destroy Orgrimmar with the focusing ires. The current Jaina could be watching this play out on the back of a bronze dragon. Then at the end we of course don't kill her and the current Jaina relearns what she learned that day all over again and agrees to go back to Dalaran and help us fight the Legion.
That is what I hope will happen with her but I feel like that isn't what will happen. What I hope docent happen but I feel like will happen is, after she left Dalaran she was tricked into serving the legion. Probably like how they tried to trick khadgar in the mini series Blizzard did before legion. We will probably fight the fell corrupted Jaina in a raid or dungeon and killer. Just typing that makes me feel emoshnal and want to cry. I really feel like this is what will happen to her. I hope for the first scenario where she lives.
Im sure as this expansion goes on we will find out what will happen to her I just hope the next time we see her we are not killing her. Now that I have this random thought out of my head what do you think will happen to Jaina?
