makes me think of dwarves =D
"some people think there are no dwarven women. that dwarves just spring out of the earth, like daisies!"

except its moo cows XD

but seriously, it does make a fair amount of sense. tauren are one of the few races that started on azeroth and aren't assumed to be titan handiwork. its completely possible that tauren were made of earth like the dwarves and other constructs, succumbed to the curse of flesh, and split off into factions of pure and impure (which may also explain why they never united until thrall and cairne). elune/mu'sha is a fraction of the earthmother, so it would be highly likely that the earthmother could create life, at least from herself.

*TIN FOIL HAT HYPERMODE*

velen guesstimates that elune is a naruu. an'she is the sun, which could in warcraft be a naruu or powered by one. therefore, naruu are born of planets, and the explanation between the light, nature and arcane magic is cemented. they all function similarly because they can all originate from the same source.
