I have a question.

Just reading Wardens of the Everqueen and ummm, where are all the Wood Elves? I thought Teclis freed all the elves from Slannesh in the Age of Myth? Also they run into human villages. Why are there humans in the realm of life? Don't they cut down trees and all that bad stuff.

As a side note I would have preferred if she'd had a bit more of a role. I kind of assumed we might get her POV like how we get Promarch POV in Heresy.

Rather than look for an answer to this specifically, I would recommend you check out the fluff from the main rules and grand alliance: order if you can. There are also several threads here on dakka where people are asking about the setting. Once you have a basic knowledge of AoS fluff these answers will be clear as well.

Saying that though, The Hunt for Nagash and The Knights of Vengeance audio dramas have LOTS of undead. From crypt ghouls to dread abyssal

Alarielle and the Wood Elves have decided to see other people.
Realm of Life =/= Athel Loren, everyone from humans to greenskins to stunted to chaos live there.

So there are Aelves living in the Realm of Life? I just got the impression that there weren't any.

I started reading some of the stuff in the rulebook and it seems to make Alarielle out that shes depressed and left longing for the world that was; because she thinks shes lost everything. So, does she not know that all of the elves are still alive? Did Tyrion, Teclis and Malerion not tell her this? Seems like the sort of thing she would like to know. Be quite overjoyed and happy to know. Shes kind of a Goddess without her people. Like crazy cat lady but with trees.

No, Alarielle has her people - the Sylvaneth.
The Asrai (as they were) were basically told to jog on a few thousand years ago. They are no longer guests in her sacred places.

However, there are Humans, Aelves, Duardin, Orruks.. - all the Mortal races, basically - present in all the realms. Some indigenous, some visiting, and some who've been visiting so long it makes no difference.

Tldr: Alarielle is the goddess/elemental of Life, but doesn't trust anyone apart from Forest Spirits anymore.
