It is thancred's role. Not ours.

If anything, we have been shown in very different places, WoL/D was in something that looks pretty alien to me, either new regions and a new world.
Thancred was in a different instance or version of Gelmorran origin it seems.

He could perfectly be defending a manifestation of Hydaelyn we as Warriors of Darkness need to defeat.
