Was anyone else surprised when Turalyon says something to the effect of "I've been fighting your kind for 1,000 years"?

I mean, I thought he and Alleria were gone since WC2, so something like 15-30 years, but 1k? Though since this is time-space stuff going on, it wouldn't surprise me if there was some crazy time dilation going on. I was just surprised. Not least of all because he's a Human, and they are neither immortal like the Night Elves were nor particularly extended lives like High/Blood Elves and Dwarven races.

If the NPC RP bugs out for you like it did for me, here's the text:

Alleria Windrunner says: Are you alright, Turalyon?

High Exarch Turalyon says: I am. In no small part thanks to our friend here. But Alleria... there's something else.

High Exarch Turalyon says: When the ship from Azeroth arrived, I sensed his presence. I would know it anywhere, even after all the years we've spent apart.

Alleria Windrunner says: Arator! He's here!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Prisoners No MoreKrokuun · Level 45

    Hatuun's people have endured arduous times. Their numbers dwindle as those ripped from beyond the walls of their sanctuary become servants to the annihilan lords in the pits just beyond, sentenced to a life of labor, torture and ultimately, death.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the VindicaarKrokuun · Level 45

    That pit lord won't trouble our new allies any longer. <Turalyon's brow furrows.> Until another takes its place, at least. If there's one thing I've learned in our endless war against the Legion, it's to savor victories as you find them. Come, let us take a moment to regroup back at your vessel.
