what happen to maiev shadowsong

[youness]

When maiev i think has killed Ilidan, what happen to her.

 

[Deleted member 238589]

Maybe she returned to that prison. Illidan wasn't her only prisoner, so maybe she's "back on duty" But less likely.

Searching for something to live for following Illidan's death, Maiev left Outland and journeyed to Darnassus to rejoin her people. Despite her role in leaving Tyrande for dead during their venture into the Eastern Kingdoms, she was permitted to return to Darnassus to begin training a new generation of Watchers, some of whom were fanatically loyal to Maiev and her cause. When Malfurion and Tyrande allowed for the Highborne and the Worgen to live in Darnassus, Maiev was secretly outraged — despising the Highborne for their part in the War of the Ancients, and the other races of the Alliance for bringing the night elves into their affairs.

Around this time her brother, Jarod Shadowsong, returned to night elf society after ten thousand years of self-imposed exile. Seeing her little brother's desire for a simple life, while he could have been the leader of the night elves, was shameful in her opinion. To her, his seclusion was an abandonment of his duty to his people. Though the reunion between the Shadowsong siblings started off bitter, Maiev eventually softened her demeanor towards her brother when he sympathized with the hard choices she had to make in order to fulfill her duties. She still felt proud of Jarod and even thought she could manipulate him as a puppet for her own ends.

When the Highborne mage Thera'brin was assassinated and his corpse was found by the Watchers' training grounds, it seemed to be intended to impute the Watchers. Maiev offered her services to investigate the matter and bring the murderer to justice, to which Malfurion and Tyrande consented. In truth however, she was secretly the one responsible for the Highborne killings. Maiev had planned to slaughter the Highborne and their leaders first, and then give Malfurion a slow rotting death. In her opinion, Malfurion was guilty of the same arrogance that his twin, Illidan, displayed. By believing that he knew what was best for the night elf people, she felt Malfurion condemned them by not having Teldrassil properly blessed, thus taking away their immortality. She also despised him for forgiving the Highborne and accepting them back into night elf society. It is suspected that the trauma caused by years of dedication to her duty, combined with the torture inflicted upon her when she was Illidan's prisoner had finally driven her insane. Now she has become a megalomaniac who deludes herself into believing that only she can exact "justice" on those she deems guilty. Though her ability to mask such madness is a credit to her skills as a survivor.

Jarod Shadowsong later freed Malfurion and joined him in confronting Maiev and her Watchers. Jarod distracted Maiev while Malfurion was rescuing the Highborne, whom Maiev had captured in a deadly trap. Jarod subsequently drove Maiev off, unable to kill his own sister. The Highborne were safe, and most of the new Watchers were dead, though their mistress had vanished into the night. Maiev has vowed that she will be the one to restore the night elves to greatness.

She is probably having tea parties with the owls in Kalimdor. Or trying insane stuff such as converting objects into Watchers.

 

[Heinvers]

So basically she left the Kaldorei for now. Maybe she'll return, but it's a bit unlikely since Jarod (her brother) took care of her schemes of killing the Highborne that were re-accepted in their society.

Well you can understand her point of view. Ok about what arcane did in wars of the ancients used to scar all night elves, I mean they did banish high elves for a reason. But we did see in TFT that she was wiling to work with Blood Elves to capture Illidan but later they betrayed her by siding with traitor. For me the acceptance shown by other night elves is more illogical and the very existence of the hiding highborn in Dire maul for 10.000 years is kinda annoying for me at least. But hey if females can be druids in wow so why not night elf mages. Was always clear that lore and logic take backseat when it come to WoW... wonder if it is possible though to discuss warcraft topic without wow...

Well, I can't blame her for hunting them down now.

I'm not surprised. Yes, the Highborne (the Nigh Elf ones) WERE SUPPOSED TO BE either dead, turned into naga or High Elves but mehh, wow.

Was always clear that lore and logic take backseat when it come to WoW...

Always.

wonder if it is possible though to discuss warcraft topic without wow...

Hardly.

SHE BECAME A DOTA HERO KNOWS AS MORTRED P

 

[Vinz]

DotA shouldn't be considered since it twists Warcraft lore.

 

[Justicebringer]

I hope she will accidentaly put
a fly-agaric in her dinner and die.

 

[Chaosy]

Unknown, but I doubt we'll see her again unless they revive Illidan, which is half confirmed.
