She's basically night elf CIA/KGB agent, she shouldn't be good or evil, she must be effective agent. Knowing what elven mages did long ago - no wonder she was killing them without mercy. What is more strange, why she they were still alive after 10k years, may be because Illidan took all her attention.

When Maiev returned to her people after the events of Cataclysm, she was shocked and angered when she saw Tyrande and Malfurion were reintegrating the Highborne back into their society. The Highborne were exiled after the War of the Ancients. I'd imagine any Kaldorei who showed a natural affinity for the Arcane after that either fled or studied in secret. Maiev comes back not knowing everything that had gone on during her absence. She sees Nelf Mages in Darnassuss and thinks Tyrande forgot what happened 10,000 years ago. She clearly had no problem working with Mages of other races after her return (Khadgar, etc.) but the issue was primarily on Nelf Mages. Until now. That's progress =)

Her power in Shadowlands came from a death god who is now dead. She also gave up on these powers as he betrayed her and her goal to free all mortals from the tyranny of the Shadowlands (that was always the only thing Sylvanas did all this for, to change the Shadowlands that mortals aren't just cattle anymore). Sylvanas could have easily chilled the Zovaal and just give all mortals the finger. That she instead gave up on this to fight Zovaal shows how important her goal was for her. Since there are still souls in the Maw, including from nightelves, it's quite fitting "punishment", though overall Sylvanas doesn't even see it that way (and Tyrande may even know that). Her lover is likely still there (killed by Tyrande) and overall: those souls sent to the Maw were just needed to reach the goal, never to just condem them forever. As things didn't work out exatly as Sylvanas wanted = rewriting the whole system, the Maw still exists, just not as that eternal prison anymore. Freeing those who are still stuck there shouldn't be a problem at all for Sylvanas - it doesn't got against her goal at all and these souls are not needed anymore. Same for Anduin by the way. She did this because they needed him go reach their goal, that's all. That's why she told him over and over again that he should help out of free will and not force them to force him.

i love how everyone stamps Sylv as an unforgivable character. some list her converting anduin as a reason they hate her. first of all she gave him MULTIPLE CHANCES TO JOIN WILLINGLY. she didn't want to kill someone using the same blade she fell to. you can see the doubt in her eyes when the jailor suggests that. and even when anduin says "make your choice, sylvanas windrunner" she hesitates even further. the jailor had unwillingly brought back a painful memory of her past life. especially once that dude brought frostmourne into her view. "sylvanas is a badly written character in the game, she doesn't match her book version at all" when will y'all stop using the books as a point? those books are a DIFFERENT VERSION (a different universe you could say) of the character. also some point out that she was aware what she was doing and that they dont like the "split personality trope" that the devs are pulling out they're asses. get over it, i like the Sylvanas we have now. especially when she realizes (her ranger general self) that the crimes she committed are unforgivable. hence why she says "i do not expect any mercy from you Tyrande" she FULLY expected to get killed by Tyrande, yet Tyrande spared her. Tyrande KNOWS that this sylvanas isn't the one she hunting, she even stated as such "the Sylvanas i hunted, would never submit to the blade of her enemy". sylvanas's change of character doesnt go unnoticed by Tyrande, tyrande is just too pissed off (rightfully so, even sylvanas knows that) to forgive her. maybe one day they will have a talk and hopefully put their differences aside.
