| - In an age of trial and desperation, the noble sin'dorei have joined the ranks of the Horde. After suffering the apathy of the Alliance, the sin'dorei bravely fought the forces of the Scourge invading their own haven that was established in Azeroth. They somehow managed to survive with the majority of their population wiped out. The time of Quel'Thalas was thought to be over. The sin'dorei, commonly referred to as "blood elves," were originally Highborne (Who were considered the nobility of the Night elves) who tampered with the powers of the Well of Eternity. Malfurion Stormrage eventually brought the teachings of druidism to the Night Elves, and the practice of arcane magic was outlawed on penalty of death. The Highborne that refused to convert lashed out in rebellion, creating a massive magical storm that swept over Ashenvale. The conservative Night Elves who endured this attack could not bear to put so many of their kind to death. They exiled the Highborne from their homelands, who set sail to the Eastern Kingdoms where their new haven was established. However, the sin'dorei who broke away from their kindred suffered withdrawals from parting with the Well of Eternity. It was then that they created and fed upon the Sunwell, which was later destroyed. Faced with an unquenchable magical addiction, the sin'dorei prince, Kael'thas Sunstrider, joined forces secretly with the Betrayer, Illidan, who had promised Kael'thas a promised land for his people, supplying them with enough mana to satisfy them forever. The prince had many followers who ventured into Outland with him. After Illidan lost his mind, Kael'thas broke his ties with him, eventually submitting to his own insanity. Kael'thas betrayed his people once more, allying with the Burning Legion and bestowing the gifts of the alliance upon his people who remained in Azeroth. This included mana stones, that house willing demons within them that the sin'dorei unknowingly feed upon. The siphoning of this fel energy caused the former high elves' blue glowing eyes to turn green. The other gift was a naaru that was captured in Tempest Keep, named M'uru. There were those in Kael'thas' army in Outland that disapproved of this alliance with the Burning Legion and broke away from their leader, creating the Scryers that you encounter in Shattrath. While others remained loyal to Kael'thas, remaining in his army. The sin'dorei who remain in Silvermoon do not know of this alliance or the betrayal, and continue to remain under Kael'thas' rule, eagerly awaiting the day that their prince leads them to their promised land.
