Summary
The Dark Times are nothing more than ancient history to the humans. Fearsome tales told to all the children of the human kingdoms of Azeroth of satyr and wyvern and trolls and all the wild, fearsome things that once ruled the land. They are almost as fabled and feared as those that tamed the wilds with magic so powerful as to be incomprehensible.
High Elves, the humans called them. Ruled by an all-powerful queen. Hidden away behind invisible barriers in a land of perpetual warmth and beauty. For the elves had tamed all things. Even nature, itself.
The betrothal of Jaina Proudmoore, the first human with magic in her veins, to a Lord of the elven royalty was a convenient way for the humans to rid themselves of the perceived threat of a dangerous young woman with a gift none of them understood. It had also solidified a long-standing, tenuous truce between them. And Jaina? Well. Jaina never felt like she belonged, anyway. She has always wanted more.

Summary
“I think you like this boat more than me,” Vereesa teased, eyes sweeping over the cabin and lingering on the desk.
“Ship,” Jaina gently corrected, gaining an eye roll in response, “And never.” She brushed her fingers over the stone dangling from Vereesa’s neck.

Summary
Jaina’s touch makes the world feel normal again. Like it did so many years ago, when she was just a ranger in training, hiding the fleeting crushes of youth from her sisters.
“I’m so glad you’re here.” Jaina whispers, pulling back to sweep her eyes over the ranks of soldiers behind her. The sight seems to remind her of reality, and she steps back, straightens.
“Welcome to Boralus!” She says to them, her voice firm and controlled. But her eyes drift back to Vereesa, as inevitably as an anchor sinking through deep ocean, and the corners of her eyes crinkle in a smile she doesn’t let anyone else see.

Summary
The war has not gone well for anyone. The Alliance has three months left before collapse. The Horde is not much better off. With neither victory or death as options, Sylvanas proposes an alternative. A treaty, to ease tensions and open borders, with a political hostage to ensure that both sides stay in line. A marriage with many political implications and Sylvanas would only accept one person. Jaina Proudmoore.
And Jaina Proudmoore made for the perfect hostage. If the Alliance moves wrong, Jaina dies. The Horde attacks, and Jaina reduces Orgrimmar to a wisp of a memory in the minds of children.
Of course, no one expected Sylvanas and Jaina to be anything more than uneasy partners with each other, least of all Sylvanas and Jaina...

Summary
“Out of the question.” They had all lost their minds, she was sure of it. It had to be some sort of new Corruption; an unforeseen side effect from one too many close encounters with the Blight.
Anduin looked like a lost little boy, defeated and at a loss for how to console her. “It's not as if we've been left with much choice, Jaina.”
“It's preposterous.”
“It is our only hope.”
“Marriage —”
“A union between warring factions would seem to be a wise direction to start with, my lady. If peace is still what we seek.”
“Between the Alliance and the Horde??"
“...yes.”
