Good grief, $252 for a gaming book does seem overpriced. o.o
I seem to recall the WoW universe does have... the Light! (generically speaking) It's never been clear to me exactly how that works but given the Scarlet Crusade get along just fine with the Light, I kind of suspect it's based on the character's own morality: as long as the character is abiding by their interpretation of the Light, and that interpretation isn't too far off, the Light is happy to aid them.
So if you're a druid and you're abusing animals, I think it's well within GM-ish prerogatives to claim 'Your next summon seems slower to ansewr your call. Perhaps they're worried about what happened to that poor rhino.'
Anyway, I guess the animal companion stuff is just a sign the WoW RPG was just shoveling stuff into a box and ticking off a checklist of features!
