Theramore Lore? - (From MMO Main Page)

This was on MMO's homepage today.

Jaina's response to Theramore will be explored in Christie Golden's upcoming novel, and later in the Mists patch cycle. Neutral? Pah!

I don't know, man. It seems pretty bleak for the Alliance again.
It's supposed to - Theramore is a dark moment. The Alliance is being challenged, and will respond - stronger than ever!

I'd rather not be forced to read a book to get a story from a game...
Totally agree, that's why we pushed to get Theramore in-game as a playable event. But to get really inside a character's head - emotions, motivations, love story - well, that's good territory for novels to explore!

I think Jaina is about to become something all together new, and personally I think she is going to be the one to end Garrosh. However, while knowing it was a more general statement, was that a hint that Jaina is getting a new love interest?

(knows there is some joke here comparing Dragon Aspects to U.S. Conservative values, but does not know what that joke is, unless it's something about Lord Prestor being evil, because it's probably not about dragon dongs)

Ok clearly I missed that connection!

I am totally not on board with that decision, makes no sense. Jaina was sorta normal, and I thought it was more fitting (tragic) that Kalec instead lived out his life pining for Aveena.

I didn't want to see her with someone like Varian (who also needs to remain focused on his past with Tiffin) though as purely a political arrangement it would make sense.

I would have preferred many other choices over Kalec.

Lastly I would apologize to the community for launching what this thread has become..bad Tyramon!
