Shameless as in Yugiri wasn't introduced in patch 2.2 of your game? Doma and Ala Mhigo has the same exact story, it would've been a total waste of time to stretch that liberation story out to two expansions.

They're setting up the introduction of Thavnair as a major player with the Thavnairian Consulate in Kugane. The issue is how to get the WoL interested in their problems and how those problems can be made bigger and more important than Garlemald retaliating against the 6 existing nations. You can't have a standalone expansion based on Thavnair jump ahead of Garlemald without doing that. it'd be much easier for them to draw Thavnair into conflict with Garlemald.

That's the same issue with Sharlayan, we have more than enough association with them with how many Scions are from there. Would not be surprised if it was introduced as part of the Ascian storyline but that alone can't carry an entire expansion.
