** To explain: in the novel ''Shadows of the Horde'', Vol’jin is introduced to a human hunter named Tyranthan Kort. While initially hostile to each other, the two men slowly grow closer over the course of the novel, saving each other’s lives and eventually swearing an oath that should one be killed before the other, the survivor would avenge his friend. Tragically, Vol’jin would pass first, and the first time Tyranthan appears in-game, it’s at his funeral. The funeral taking place just outside the ''very'' human-unfriendly Orgrimmar. The funeral that apparently even ''Thrall'' couldn’t be bothered to attend. Tyrathan later appears in the hunter class hall, still thinking about Vol’jin and his promise to avenge him.

[[ThePowerOfLove Love.]] He doesn't even bother hiding his horror when Darion is turned into the NobleDemon that he ends up as. In fact, his reaction to seeing Darion again is to plead with/berate him for falling to the Scourge. Darion's initial death could even be interpreted as a [[ActofTrueLove proving his love for Tirion, since it's kinda the only reason Tirion or anyone else survived the original battle of Light's Hope Chapel]]. That incident is also the reason that the Lich King regards Mograine so highly, as he managed to foil the Archlich Kel'thuzad: [[TheDragon the Lich King's right hand man]] and most powerful member of the Scourge by far.
** Eventually, Darion returns the favor and saves Tirion's life, yelling at him, berating him, kicking stuff around, basically raging that Tirion did not come to him immediately after discovering the heart of the [[EvilOverlord Lich King]]. Those guys are really invested in the other one living because of pure trust, or...something else. They always talk to each other while ignoring other people.

Doesn't stop him from going through with the assault, but still... (For Comparison, when weighing up the other candidates, Darion considered the pros and cons of the choices politically before deciding the Ebon Blade would be honoured to have the new horsemen in their ranks.) To be fair though, this reaction is partially because he knows the Lich King is playing a sick joke on him. It is also worth noting that Tirion is old enough to be Darion's father, although younger than his actual father, and Darion is young enough to be Tirion's son (although older than his actual son). Their extremely close relationship could therefore be more of a father-son thing than a romantic thing.

* In Battle for Azeroth, much of the Horde questing zone of Vol'dun revolves around two female Zandalari trolls, Kaja and Rakera. The zone's story begins with Kaja enlisting the player's help to find her commander, Rakera, who has been exiled to Vol'dun for having dirt on the general of the Zandalari army. As the quests progress, it becomes increasingly obvious that Kaja has a personal attachment, and once Rakera is found, she refuses to leave her side. A later quest has the player collect other people's memories, and among them is a flashback from just before Rakera was exiled. In it, Kaja begs Rakera not to confront the general, and is left crying when Rakera states that duty comes first.
** In a later patch, Rakera is promoted to general. Kaja receives no promotion herself, but is always present wherever General Rakera goes, as if she's worried about losing her again.
