Chapter Three: The Scales Tip
Jalinde was the initial ranger of Quel'Danil Lodge that received the orders from Ranger-General Sylvanas Windrunner, which had been carried by the farstrider Gilveradin Windrunner. She was furious at the orders, which involved sending what farstriders the lodge could spare up north to the Gatekeeper, and in the process cease any monitoring of the Darkspear Tribe in Hiri'watha.
It soon became clear she had some strong feelings about Sylvanas, especially since the Ranger-General had sent little aid to the isolated ranger lodge, though ultimately the orders were passed on to her superior, Saldor Shallowbrook. Shallowbrook complied to orders in what ways the lodge were able, and put Jalinde in charge of the contingent of rangers that were to inform the Darkspear trolls of their newfound freedom to wander as they pleased.
However, Jalinde took a few matters into her own hands. Unwilling to let the trolls wander unwatched, she and her contingent instead chose to drive them off. While none were killed, she ensured to make it obvious that they were unwelcome in the areas around Quel'Danil Lodge. Gilveradin, Lieran, Loania, and Seria found out about her involvement, but she stood her ground, instead stating that she was unwilling to put her rangers at risk as it was inevitable that the trolls would eventually take the opportunity to attack.
She informed the group that Loania's mother, Voldana, had been sent up north with a small squad of farstriders to help reinforce Last Crossing, and that Loania was welcome to stay, but she heavily implied that the others had likely overstayed their welcome.
