Am I crazy or does the warscroll have a mistake? Obviously Alarielle is an aelf, why the missing keyword and lore references?

She isn't an Aelf, she's the goddess of the Sylvaneth. They only vaguely remember their prior connection to the ancestors of the Aelves (e.g. 'the Protectors' whom the Tree Revenants imitate).

It wouldn't make sense if she had a connection to the Aelves since she's practically a god now, not a mortal like an Aelf.

She's a god now, not an Aelf. Somewhat similarly the various Verminlords do not have the 'Skaven' keyword.

It also helps that she seems to almost have a dislike of her former kin as well, considering the reactions of the treekin to the Wanderers.

I think thats fair since she has already been a bxxch who changed 4 or 5 husbands I think?

Still remember in ET when Tyrion returned, how she treated poor Malekith who she once turned so desaperately to.

I like Malekith, a lot. But I wouldn't say 'Poor Malekith' after all the things he did prior to being Eternity King.

He, Tyrion, and Teclis appeared to at least be working together now at least. Alarielle just went a little crazy after absorbing Ariel probably.

Nope, the very end of Ent Time fiction, when they failed the last effort, Malekith was crashed by some fallen stones and lying on the ground to die. Alarielle and Tyrion were not really hurt and they stood together, hand in hand, without saying a word just observing the power of warp grow.
Then Malekith tried to attract some attension by making noise or saying 'Anyone want to know what is happening here?' Eventually Tyrion gave some feedback by kicking dying Malekith very hard. However, Alarielle was totally not moved, even without a glance on Malekith.
I think Malekith at that moment should be quite despointed.

Malekith and Tyrion supposedly teamed up to fight/capture Slaanesh in AoS, so presumably they have put aside their differences at least somewhat. Probably a certain camaraderie stemming from 'dam we've been through some gak'.

And what makes it even worse is that at some point you remember that he is like their... great-lots-of-great-granduncle.
Poor uncle Mal.
