maybe Draenei and Eredar have a common, uncorrupted ancestor?
Once one can finally get back to www.worldofwarcraft.com, we may have an answer!

Quote: Blizzard's April Fools joke wasnt a total joke.
I've seen the grabs of the E3 video, and the starting area clearly looks like Mt. Hyjal.
My theory: After the wisps all owned Archimonde, they absorbed part of his power/energy/form/whatever. This overwhelming power transformed the wisps, giving them mortal form again in the shape of an Eredar. However, since they have the souls of elves, they arent evil and are accepted into the Alliance on this fact.
This idea fits right in with the Blizzcon statement where Metzen said "At first you will go "HUH?" then go "Oh, that makes sense".
If they go with this explanation, it wont be as big a boggle as just saying "rofl eredar r alliance!"
Someone's idea of an explanation. Wouldn't surprise me. :P But at this stage in the game, who the heck knows.
