Cut Content?

Long-time players said we used to be able to go to Ghostlands as part of high elf questline? Now it is removed.
Can any veterans highlight more details about Ghostland cut content and why it was removed?

You are right about a lot of other things about retcons though. At that time, rest of Alliance could do nothing to prevent Quel'thalas from leaving them. I mean a lot of alliance soldiers die in defense of Quel'thalas but high elves still leave. About sudden changes, it is more about political decis...

Re: Less talked retcon about thalassian elves

Well, elven connection with the Alliance was thin even in WC3. There are no thalassian destroyers and no rangers among its ranks; the only elves who left are priests who come in Lordaeron to cleanse lands (humanitarian mission, as we call it now) and dalarani sorceresses. That was one of key ideas ...
