May 24, 2023 at 20:26 | comment | added | RDBury | You can translate "sollten" as "should" with no change in meaning here: "All blood elves could meet the same fate, should we fully succumb to our desires. It sounds old fashioned in English, the type of thing you might hear in high fantasy. I don't know how it sounds in German though. As noted below, "had" also works, but only in past tense. | |
