** In Theramore's case, it's not so much that they're averse to war (for the common footsoldier, anyway) as it is they trust Jaina's judgement to the point that a couple off-duty town guards threaten to beat the snot out of a visiting merchant who badmouths her in a tavern, even if they might share his sentiment that the Horde is dangerous.

* SophisticatedAsHell: When not {{Wangst}}ing about her life, Aegwynn can come of as this: She treats her powers and things like demons incredibly casually and can not stand the formalities of her position. The latter was part of the reason why she had a falling out with the Council of Tirisfal. She is also quite foul-mouthed.

!!This book contains:
* BadassBookworm: Jaina Proudmoore in a nutshell.
* CoolOldLady: Aegwynn.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: The Burning Blade's rather anvilicious resemblance to the KKK.
* EvilChancellor: [[spoiler: Kristoff is a massive racist and largely responsible for all the evil deeds done in the book.]]
* FantasticRacism: Pretty much the whole point.
* DeaderThanDead: Zmodlor won't be revived by Kil'jaden.
* TheDevil: Zmodlor. Subverted in he's a fairly minor demon.
* BlackAndGreyMorality: Azeroth vs. the Burning Blade at least.
* GreyAndGreyMorality: Humans vs. Orcs.
* HumansAreBastards: So, thankfully, are Orcs.
* IWasQuiteALooker: Aegwynn drops this statement a few times.
* LicenseToWhine: Aegwynn spends much of the book exerting this.
* TheManBehindTheMan: Zmodlor is ultimately behind the Burning Blade. The Shadow Council of Felwood is ultimately behind Zmoldor. The Burning Legion is ultimately behind the Shadow Council. Sargeras is ultimately behind the Burning Legion.
