I AM THE THERAMOR CITIZEN. I'M INDOMITABLE, INDESTRUCTIBLE, INVINCIBLE. I. AM. THE PANDARIA.

Seriously, how did they survive the mana bomb?

Aha.

So they aren't all killed.

Therefore we must extrapolate that there are BILLIONS of Lordaeornian survivors!

There's also:

Find Jaina - Find Jaina Proudmoore in the ruins of Theramore.

Cleansing the Filth - Destroy any remaining horde in the ruins of Theramore. (optional) Lay to rest the remains of any fallen Theramore citizens.


Also, not sure if:

Tanks for Nothing! - Destroy Big Bessa and sabotage any unmanned tanks.

Is Horde or Alliance (probably Horde.)

Yup, Big Bessa is a Theramore vehicle Horde is going to destroy.

As much as I like the confirmation of survivors, I don't like how it sorta feels like this is shaping up to be a "kill X mobs, right click on Y survivors" in comparison to the Horde's sabotage/raining death down on the city.

Hopefully "Find Jaina" and "Destroy the Destroyer" will involve better gameplay or at least a shit-ton of lore.

Retrieving the banner of Theramore has a lot of symbolic value that I like. I wonder where it's going to end up?

I say we find Jaina in a secret underground fetish chamber with Pained holding the stirrup. The iron mask is preventing her from hearing the chaos, and as for not feeling the explosions? Well, lets face it, Night Elf woman would totally rock your world. Hate sex all the time, every time.

There we go again. Of course the Horde will always end up having the COOLEST quests and BETTER gameplay.

Well, after the disaster that was Cataclysm I think that it's natural to be suspicious of future questing quality.

I think that bombarding an Alliance city from the air via gunship is cooler than "Kill X mobs then report to Jaina" anyway.

Hopefully, taking down the siege engine will be interesting and hopefully we get to Lorna Crowley the Fist of Garrosh.

Bombing a city does sound a bit more fun then just a few kill-fetch quests.

Cautious optimism at the moment on my part.

I will certainly pay a visit to the mass grave once a week, just to remember all the innocents that died when Theramore was destroyed

I'd put a fair bit of gold behind them just happening to be among the few survivors.

I don't really like WO II jokes. It left Europe in ruin and other parts of the world too ofcourse. + the millions of INNOCENTS that got killed.

I did not, I just felt it was pointless to have to write out every single specie of the Alliance. We'll have vengeance for every single member of the Alliance who has been slain by the members of the Horde. Retroactively of course.

There is no "we'll". There is a possibility of "they will". God you people make me want to reroll Horde.
