I am not one to say "I told you so", but... ;)

Shun the non-believers! Shuuuuunnnnn!

[Smeedle]

Okay, I can accept that the blood elves managed to overpower one single naaru but this is just silly:

"With Tempest Keep in blood elf hands, the naaru find themselves stranded in Outland, facing a precarious future."

Huh? So all the naaru (how many are there anyway) together can't beat the blood elves? Well, good luck fighting the Burning Legion then. And wait a minute. Didn't the Draenei manage to capture some part of Tempest Keep to fly to Azeroth? Why didn't the naaru help them with their attack? Or did they and just got left behind?

The Old Gods did it.

The Naaru could just Bubble Hearth them to death.

[Kenzuki]

The blood elves steal everything! :kawaii:

Kael and his elves are the shit dude, what can we do? :D

[Kenzuki]

Actually it's more of the Naaru left their Castle/Spaceship and left one Naaru to guard it (retards) then the blood elves nuck in and locked the door behind them. Now the poor Naaru are locked out of their spaceship and cannot get home.

"Help me Jaina Proudmoore, you're our only hope."

[Cantus]

Blood Elves are masters of magic (which in many cases comes in the form of energy), and can go so far as to "steal it" (ie take control of the energies wielded by another). Something tells me a race of beings created from pure energy isn't going to have an easy time against hundreds of Blood Elves (lead by Kael'thas, a powerful mage in his own right.)

Then, once the single guardian is captured, Kael'thas merely has to man the defenses and the Naaru suddenly have their own castle shooting back at them (or however it's defended).

And the Eredar, excuse me, Draenei only took back a portion of Tempest Keep. Likely it was a quick assault by most (if not all) of the Draenei in order to escape the Burning Legion's wrath. When you're escaping a life or death situation, you're more likely to take what small part you can get (Exodar) and run than try for the whole Keep.

What if the Naaru did help the Draenei escape, and there are several aboard Exodar? Hell, what if the Draenei's escape was manufactured by the Naaru, who could hold their own against the wilds of Outland as compared to a lesser evolved species?

Hopefully it isn't as simple as many of you make it out to be, but who knows.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha............

Master Velen, we need your guidance

[Kenzuki]

Yeah, how the hell is Velen still alive? He's over 25,000 years old! He's not a demon, so how can he live that long.

Really, really big life spawn or shameless plot device?

You chose.

[Tularis]

It will probably be something stupid like the Naaru blessed him with everlasting life, or some crap like that :P

Hahaha, so true.

[Vonhahn]

I just wonder what the Naaru models are gonna look like. Looks like there gonna be hard to animate... considering there like a floating.. thing. It will be neat to see them in action.

The only one we know an exact location of is in a prison.

Wisps anyone?

[Vonhahn]

Wisps dont have any corpral parts to them, but the Naaru look like they do, or at least thats what it looks like to me. I guess we wont know untill we see one in game.

[KardenTheHunter]

It never said Velen was 25,000 years old. It just said that the Draenei arose on Argus nearly 25,000 years ago. Never said that Velen was there. All it said was that Sargeras found the Eredar one day because they'd built a wonderous society through sorcery. It said he'd contacted the 3 most powerful leaders Velen, Archimonde, and Kil'jaeden. We don't know exactly how long the Eredar/Draenei lived before Sargeras came upon them. More so we don't know when Velen, Archimonde, or Kil'jaeden came along. However, what it does say was that the Legion chased the Draenei for thousands of years until they came to Draenor. It then also says that Velen kept his people safe through his power and the power of the strongest mystics for generations.

So to be fair, we don't know Velen's age. We do know he's over a thousand years old but then we don't know the average life-span for the Draenei. Plus he's apparently one of the strongest casters alive. I'm not sure if he still uses arcane based magics or if he just follows the light but apparently he used to be one of the strongest Arcane wielders of all time if he was contacted by Sargeras and was offered to join him. And we all know that some of the most powerful mages and can live a very, very long time.

Considering Archimonde and Kil'jaeden were around prior to the War of the Ancients, which happened over ten thousand years ago, he's got to be over that. Not even the night elves live naturally that long. They only survived for that length of time because of the blessing placed upon the World Tree.
