So, not many people know why we’re called the Alliance so I thought I would give you all a history lesson.
Once upon a time, there was a massive field of lions although a lot of people probably don’t remember this which is why I’m telling this story.
So, this massive pack of lions, see? They were just running wild all over the Eastern Kingdoms, I’m talking legitimately going apeshit and just shitting everywhere like the nasty cats they are, this lead to a massive ban being placed on druids from turning into lions, it meant we didn’t know which ones were friendly and which ones were just pissy cats.
The clans came together to decide that hey, we need to deal with these fucking overgrown cats now that the orcish horde had been dealt with, no biggy there, what could a bunch of fucking cats do huh? Well, I’ll tell you what they could do.
Shit in your fucking garden at three AM that’s what. We even tried to build a zoo for them, hence Stormwind park? But no, these fucking cats. Let me fucking tell you, lions are fucking demons.
I don’t give a shit about the burning legion, we just needed a way to fucking deal with this problem, we were very close to losing our tether as pacifists*.
Anyway, we finally figured out that they really enjoyed the catnip we grew in Stormwind’s gardens so guess fucking what lads? We made them into our fucking mounts. Yep, that’s right, they may shit wherever they fucking find, but we had LIONS now.
So then when we were trying to come up with a name for us, we had a soft little chortle over the name “All Lions”. Over time we just fucked around with it more and more until tada.... Alliance.
So there you go, that’s why the symbol of the Alliance has a lion on it and why you can never encounter a lion in the wild but can get it as a mount if you try hard enough.
