Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea Beware, I heard him cry His words carried upon the ocean breeze As he sank beneath the tide Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor Where sailors fought and died The admiral fell at Theramore Because she left his side Why this? Why this, oh Daughter of the Sea? Why this? Did you forget your seaside days? Always the pride of our nation’s eyes How could she go astray? When she did flee across the ocean deep The admiral followed west What else but sail To save a
daughter’s life And pray she still drew breath? But there he found upon those distant shores Enemies ‘pon the rise! But when he faced those savage foes His daughter stood aside And buried deep beneath the waves Betrayed by family To his nation, with his last breath, cried Beware the Daughter of the Sea I’m listening now... father. I heard, I heard across a moonlit sea The old voice warning me Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea Beware... beware... of me.

"I understand more than you suspect, my dear. Perhaps in time, you will too." - Admiral Daelin Proudmoore
jaina voice actor is just 10/10 at this point
This was probably one of the best things to come out of Battle for Azeroth.
All she ever wanted was to study...
Long story short: Jaina had to choose between war and her father's death. She chose her father's death. Then she still had war.
Laura Bailey is amazing. The level of emotion in her voice.
"I'm listening now... father..." That's one very powerful delivery if you ask me. Amazing voice acting.
"My father once told me, that peace was like a dream... Beautiful. Ephemeral. Unattainable. I didn't listen..." "... I'm listening now ... Father..."
In Warcraft 3 campaign her last words to her father are: "Father... why wouldn't you listen?" and here she says "I'm listening now father." Make of it what you will.
Breaks my heart to remember this was one of the last time's i was emotionally invested in WoW, and thats after most of my love for the game had already left
This cinematic was better than entire BFA expansion.
"Beware... beware... of me." always sends chills down my spine!
Powerful emotions. Jaina's last words to her father in WC3 before his death were "Father... why wouldn't you listen?". Now she sees his side of it, and finally tells him regretfully "I'm listening father"
It's easy to think that this is a canon shanty sung by Alliance sailors in Kalimdor and Jaina's probably heard it often.
5yrs later and this song still gives me goosebumps.
A lot of people do not fully understand the tragedy that is Jaina’s entire life. She lost her love to the powers of the Lich king and become the very embodiment of evil, she lost Dalaran as it was destroyed by Archimonde, her mentor was killed by Arthas, she left her home and life behind to travel to Kalimdor, fought off the burning legion, had to watch her father be killed in the name of peace, years later have to face off against her love after trying to find a way to redeem him, having to kill him, then watching as the Horde she fought to have peace with destroy her kingdom, return back to Kul Tiras branded a traitor, and watch her dead brother be reanimated into undeath. My heart HURTS for her.
If Blizzard ever decided to get into the animated movie game they would give Disney and Pixar a run for their money for sure
Daelin protected his ship and fallen crew in the afterlife and awaited his daughters return and promptly forgave her and led her to the ship for whatever she needed. He waited, knowing she would come back when she needed to. He may have warned kul tiras of his daughter but he understood and never stopped loving her :'(
This is what Warcraft should be. No Jailer shenanigans.
