The Fate of Dalaran

Last wiki revision 2021-09-30

Speak with Jaina Proudmoore and hear her story.

  • Speak with Jaina Proudmoore

Jaina is refusing to hear me out. Father was hoping I would have some pull with her, but I think she still sees me as a child.

You, on the other hand, are a hero of the Alliance and I know she respects your deeds.

Is there something you can say to her to convince her we need her help?

You will receive:

We are not asking for military forces. But we do need the magical support of Dalaran if we are to stop Garrosh's reckless advances.

Thank you for your help, hero. I hear the wisdom in Jaina's words.

Let's just hope her faith in the Sunreavers is justified.

  • 236000 XP
  • +500 reputation with Operation: Shieldwall
  • +350 reputation with Alliance

Turn and speak with Jaina to begin a short Choose Your Own Adventure story:

  • Varian sent you as well? I'm outnumbered in my own city!
  • <Jaina's eyes flash mischieveously.>
  • Let's go about this a different way. Put yourself in my shoes. Imagine that YOU are the leader of the Kirin Tor. <Name>!
  • What would YOU do?
  • Spoken like a stalwart Alliance ! Believe me, I understand the sentiment.
  • Now then, as leader of the Kirin Tor and a faithful part of the Alliance, what would you do about the Sunreavers? True, they are advocates of the Horde. But they have been allies and productive members of the Kirin Tor for over 2000 years. This city is their home. Would you expel them?
  • <Jaina's eyes grow sad.>
  • So... you would purge the city? Cast the Sunreavers from their homes? The very same Sunreavers who helped humans discover magic in the first place?
  • You and I are obviously very different. I suppose I see my role - and the mission of the Kirin Tor a little differently. My mind is set. Would you like to hear what I think?
  • <Jaina brushes her hair from her eyes, deep in thought.>
  • You're so passionate for your cause and clear in your convictions. Believe me when I say that the Sunreavers are the same. The Horde is their family.
  • Not all of them support Garrosh. But they're not about to abandon their own people... I couldn't ask them to do so without tearing the Kirin Tor apart.
  • The Kirin Tor is sacred to me. We need to stay united.
  • Ah! A very bold decision in times like these. Your honesty is refreshing!
  • Tell me, leader of the Kirin Tor, what if the Horde killed your friends? Your family? Destroyed everything you had. Could you maintain your convictions even then, Archmage ?
  • <Jaina smiles.>
  • If only we all shared your strength and conviction! To be honest, I struggle. Every. Day.
  • But you are right. The Kirin Tor is bigger than you, me, Alliance or Horde. I have a responsibility to preserve it, and to use its powers wisely.
  • You and I seem to agree. I doubt the King sees it that way. But... do you think we can convince Anduin?
  • <Jaina warms to you immediately.>
  • A kindred soul! Thank you,, for your honesty. You seem to understand my struggle. Every day, the hard decisions. Every night... the nightmares.
  • But I have a responsibility to preserve the Kirin Tor. I'm glad you're with me on this. The King would nver see it this way. Do you think we can explain it to Anduin?

A cinematic begins:

  • say
  • say
  • The two step over to the railing and overlook the city.
  • say
  • say
  • Anduin turns to look at her, stunned at this revelation. She turns to him in response.
  • say
  • Scenes of Jaina and Kalec walking together as he talks with her...
  • say
  • ''...Kel'Thuzad with an early experiment of two ghouls...
  • say
  • ...and Kael'thas with some of his people in the past, are shown.
  • The camera returns to the balcony.
  • say
  • say
  • Silver Covenant high elf members are shown in open discussions with individual Sunreavers in the Magus Commerce Exchange.
  • say
  • A shot looking up at the Antonidas Memorial.
  • say
  • A long camera pan through the streets flies above the city and behind the Violet Citadel, and appears to head back toward the Purple Parlor.
  • say
  • say
  • say
  • say
  • The camera releases back to player control.

To see the cinematic again, speak with her once more:

  • And did the good King Varian send you as well to bid for our aid?

On complete: Walk back in to the Purple Parlor and take the port.

  • say

Agent Connely has sent a letter as well:

This completes the "Jaina's Hope" portion of Operation: Shieldwall Campaign.
