Many thousand years ago, the Pearlfin Tribe stood on the throne of all Pandaria. At one point they trusted a tribe of hozen which somehow led to a great betrayal; consequently causing a waning of their numbers and influence. After this betrayal, Pearlfin Village became all that was left of their people. The jinyu have been distrustful of outsiders and at war with the hozen ever since.
After the Cataclysm, Alliance players encounter a Jinyu named Bold Karasshi and enlist his aid in rescuing Admiral Taylor from a hozen prison. After escaping their captors, the Alliance and jinyu prisoners seek sancturary in Pearlfin Village, home of the Pearlfin tribe. After discovering that the Horde has allied with the hozen, the Alliance attempts to recruit the Jinyu into the Alliance. After consulting with their water spirits and the spirit of the former Jinyu emperor of Pandaria, Rassharom, the Pearlfin Jinyu agree to ally themselves with the Alliance. The Alliance trains the Pearlfin in their superior military knowledge and arms them with weaponry. In exchange, the Pearlfin pledges their support in the Alliance's war against the Horde.
But the Inkgill tribe was less lycky and Sha Corrupted. Recently when Nazjatar rises from the sea the Alliance must now face a new threat beneath the surface the alliance turns to their only aqariqan friends the wise Jinyu. The Naga attacked the Inkgill Jinyu beacause their home is close to water. The Jinyu realise that they never can rule over Pandaria again the Humans of Stormwind offerd the Jinyu to rule over another land called Balor. They accept this offer and fled Sha corruption and the Nagas. After all the Jinyu are just intelligent Murlocs evolved by the waters of Vale of Eternal Blossoms, as Kul Tiras got a Murloc problem. The Inkgill Tribe escaped from the malowent Sha and shipped over to their new home Kul Tiras along side many Jinyus from the Pearlfin Jinyu. While there they capture Murlocs and evolve them to more Jinyus. Now to secure the Alliance from any threat beneath the surface. That makes The Wise Jinyu join the Alliance. ALLIANCE NEW RACE: JINYU
NPC Says: "The water fortold this meeting" "Do you hear the rivers song?" "The Pandaren are wise, the Hozen not so much" "I have the best bubbles in the land" "Looking for trade?"
Ten thousand years ago, during the reign of Queen Azshara, there was an elite magic-using sect known as the Highborne, who dabbled in magics that many other elves considered reckless and irresponsible by drawing upon the power of the Well of Eternity. The high-borne elves enjoyed great power and comfort before the War of the Ancients. During that conflict, the Highborne sought to abuse arcane magic to bring demons to the world. This action led to the War itself, in which the night elves, at great cost, defeated the Burning Legion. The magical backlash shattered the world, imploded the Well of Eternity, and blasted the Highborne’s capital city to the bottom of the ocean. Many were cast far into the flooding depths of the great cataclysm that sundered the land and destroyed the Well of Eternity; it was Queen Azshara's quick thinking that saved them. She is thought to have managed to make a pact with the Old Gods on behalf of her people, though the exact beings that transformed them are unknown. It is also possible its curser was Neptulon the Tidehunter, the water Elemental Lord. With the Old Gods' curse they started to change. Since then they have further been twisted by the residual cascading energies of the Well of Eternity. They took on new shapes, new powers and became the hateful, serpentine naga.
When the naga awakened, they set about building a new life for themselves on the ocean depths, within the abyssal sea trench beneath the swirling waters of the Maelstrom they built their new city, Nazjatar. Azshara herself expanded with hate and rage, becoming a massive monstrosity, reflecting the wickedness and malice that had always hidden within her core, for 10,000 years. After the Third War they made new allies in the form of their Highborne kin the blood elves, as well as enemies of the night elves and the Alliance. They have planned to rise Nazjatar to the surface for many years now and now is the time. Now when the Naga has rise Nazjatar to the surface the Jinyu and their Alliance show to be a threat ot the Naga, the Naga turned to the only race that didnt suspect them, the Blood Elves. So the Naga allied whith the Blood Elves and their Horde. But their thrue attantions may not be as they say. Just like Goblins and Forsaken nothing will perwent them from reach their own future goals. As the most distrustfull alles of the Horde, the wile serpent Naga join the Horde.
