Azeroth’s Death Track

Velen came quickly.

The Prophet flew over on the Forbidden Ship, one of the only three Draenei spaceships, and it took less than an hour.

The Atama Crystal is a sacred object bestowed by the ancestors of the Draenei. Each piece has a unique ability. For the Draenei who are now struggling to rebuild their civilization, each piece of the Atama Crystal has a special meaning.

After hearing that the human empire had found a gem suspected to be the Bright Star, the Prophet had a premonition that the lost gem might give new hope to the breathless camp of the living oppressed by the undead... . A slim but worthwhile hope.

this...

In the secret room at the port of the White Tower, Velen, the draenei prophet who was full of dust, looked at the few pieces of precious stones on the table that exuded rich darkness. His star-like eyes shone with doubt and regret.

This is indeed supposed to be one of our lost Atama crystals, a shining hour of endless light and the true meaning of the Holy Light, but...but why did it become so evil, and...why did it break?

Prophet, it was Tyrion who broke it.

Jaina explained in a low voice:

After we fought Tyrion in Dragonblight, we found this crystal among the spoils. Arthas believed that the magic sword Ashbringer in Tyrion's hand was forged from the main body of this dark crystal. He felt that the sword The breath is very similar to these crystals.

The Prophet ignored Jaina's explanation. He glanced back, and the Grand Vindicator Maraad who came with him immediately stepped forward. This powerful paladin who also fought Tyrion head-to-head stretched out his hand, With his eyes closed, he passed his fingers over the crystal fragments one by one.

The dark magic power collided with the holy light in Maraad's body. When his fingers passed over each crystal fragment, a group of bright light and shadows would erupt, just like ignited lightning sparks. It is very important that everyone is watching this process, once the source of the crystal is determined, maybe they can work out a way to restrain the evil weapon of the Dark Blade King.

Yes, Prophet, although the remaining energy is very thin, it is indeed very similar to the breath of Tyrion's sword.

Maraad took a step back, and he said to the Prophet with some shame:

I'm sorry, I didn't realize this at the time, otherwise, even if we do everything, we will keep Tyrion in Northrend. The significance of the Bright Hour to the Draenei...is too important .”

No, it's not your fault, Maraad.

The Prophet looked at the remaining crystal shards on the table, closed his eyes in pain, and said in a daze:

Even I couldn't find it, and it's not your fault... The Brilliant Star is clearly tainted, and while we don't know what caused the taint, unfortunately, we may have lost it forever.

The prophet's painful expression made everyone look at each other. Humans don't understand the significance of the Atama crystal to the Draenei, but it can be seen from the prophet's expression that this thing must be very important, so after a few seconds, Faol His Majesty asked:

My friends, the Holy Light teaches us not to dwell on the pain of the past, but to draw strength from the pain and move on...although it is a pity that your holy things are destroyed , but the young kings and I believe that these remnants of the relic fragments are likely to help us find a way to fight against the Dark Blade King...

Looking at the Prophet, His Majesty said in a deep voice:

We need your help, fellow believers, we need to know all the knowledge and stories about this crystal.

Faol's voice woke Velen from his grief, and the latter heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the imitation fragments on the table, and after a moment, he nodded:

You're right, fellow believers, indeed... this is indeed a painful thing, but we can't lose hope of the future by indulging in it. Since you want to know, let me tell you.

As he spoke, Arthas personally moved a chair for the prophet. The tall Velen sat on the chair. He stretched out his fingers and stroked the surface of the dark gem. The dark power dissipating in the gem was stimulating Velen's finger made him feel a slight tingling pain, but the prophet didn't care. He touched his white beard hanging on his chest, between the shimmering flickering marks of the Draenei leader on his forehead. , the prophet told a distant story.

Atamar Crystal, this was once an incarnation of Holy Light, a sacred object bestowed by the powerful Naaru originating from our ancestors. The name of that Naaru has been unverifiable, but the crystal he left behind has become a guide for Ai. The Reda people cast their light on the lighthouse, and you can never imagine how sacred and brilliant the holy light is when the complete Atama crystal shines in the sun.

Velen's eyes shone with nostalgia, and he seemed to have returned to that era when everything was beautiful. His deep voice echoed in the secret room:

The Atama crystal has all kinds of magical functions. For tens of thousands of years, it has been guiding the direction of the Eredar civilization, but the arrival of Sargeras destroyed all this. In desperation, I took The clansmen who were unwilling to let the demons succumbed embarked on the road of escape, and the fall of our civilization also shattered the Atama crystal. I don’t know if it is the divine will that disappointed us, or fate So, anyway, it broke.

The seven broken crystals still have their own unique functions. In fact, during the 25,000 years when the Draenei fled, without the protection of the Atama crystal, it would be impossible for us to search for it in the vast stars. To the Way of Life, the Shadow of the Leaves in the Path of the Stars keeps our ship from being detected by the demons, and the Kiss of Fortune keeps us from every ambush and trap aimed at the draenei.

The story of the Prophet attracted the attention of all the kings, especially the wonders of those Atamar crystals, which made everyone unable to help but imagine.

The shield of the naaru protects our flagship. No matter how powerful a demon warship is, it cannot break through its protection. The eye of the storm grants us the power to fight back. Even in the cold stars, it can summon the spirit of the elements that destroy everything. Power, and the heart of anger... You have seen it, under the light of the crimson courage, the brave draenei warriors can always fight the chasing demons to the last moment.

The song of the soul allows me to show fragments of the future, allowing me to find temporary footholds one after another for my people in the complicated fate, and the most important thing is the shining day, the endless holy light it emits Let us stay away from death. No matter how serious the injury is, under the radiance of the Holy Light of the Bright Hour, it can recover quickly... My clansman can persist in the long-term escape to the end. A large part of the reason is Because of the protection of the Brilliant Chen.

The Prophet picked up a black gem and put it in front of his eyes. He sighed again:

Moreover, the holy light that shines in the Brilliant Hour is peculiar. When the believers of the Holy Light are bathed in the light of the Brilliant Hour, we can always feel that the erratic holy light is right in front of our eyes. It has never Have left us...it is the source of our beliefs, can you feel that feeling?

No one answered, and the Prophet didn't need to answer. He lost the crystal fragments filled with darkness and put them back on the table. He said:

The Brilliant Star was lost like other crystals during the war. It was a nightmare experience. I don't want to mention those painful pasts, but now, the Bright Star, which originally represented endless hope, is shrouded in darkness. It reminds me of Something that I've been ignoring.

The Prophet's expression became puzzled, and he rubbed his forehead, as if he was recalling something.

Hundreds of years ago, when we arrived in the world of Draenor, we encountered a difficult forced landing. A naaru who was with the Draenei sacrificed himself in order to protect us. It was called Kara... Kara's body was left among the stars in the world of Draenor. That was the first time I saw a scene where a naaru died. It did not disappear, but became a monster that devoured all light in the convergence of endless light. source of shadow.

That is the endless reincarnation of the naaru. Kara told me that there is no need to be sad. This is the fate of the naaru. From the brightness filled with endless holy light to the shadow that swallows all light, it told me that this is also the essence of light and shadow. This situation is very similar to the current situation of Bright Chen.

As he was speaking, the prophet looked at His Majesty Faol who was thinking about it, and said:

I heard, believers, in the recent war, you also recognized the existence of those priests who practiced the way of shadow... This is very good, it means that you have finally taken a step towards a deeper understanding of the Holy Light. That step, in fact, in the Draenei group, there are also shadow-walking priests, but in order not to arouse your disgust, I concealed this.

Well, light and shadow, this is indeed a huge research topic.

His Majesty Fao nodded his head. Being able to become the Pope represents his deep understanding of theology. He said to the Prophet:

The Bishop of Chaldea is a believer in the Holy Light. In recent years, he has been researching the subject of light and shadow. He is a trustworthy brother. The Shadow Priest has indeed made contributions to the empire. ..of course we can discuss this later, my fellow believers, do you know what I learned from your story?

I'm all ears.

The Prophet said softly, and then everyone saw Faol, who was very old, stretched out his hand and pinched the dangerous dark gem fragment in his hand. He looked at the others and whispered:

If light and shadow are the truth of real existence, then does this stone falling from light to darkness mean that it is part of the transformation of light and shadow? If it can change its energy nature, does it mean that this transformation is two-way? Velen, you've seen the naaru die, and you've heard from them the cycle they believe in...so let us try it with our own hands.

As he spoke, the pure and huge holy light in Faol's body followed his fingers and poured into the dark gem. This scene made all the kings stand up in shock, and Arthas even loudly shouted:

No! Your Majesty, this is too dangerous, this should be done by us, let it go!

But it was already too late, the holy light shining all over his body was so bright, it was as if he himself had become a point of light, and everyone could only cover their eyes with their hands under the scorching light, It's like witnessing the recovery of a golden sun.

In that light and shadow, they heard Faol's low and gentle voice:

I'm getting old, kids...

hum

The dark magic power of the dark gem pinched by Faol's fingertips escaped crazily at this moment, and even formed a black hole that swallowed all the light above the table. Velen, the only prophet who did not close his eyes, was dead. Staring at the black hole, he could feel that as the holy light in Faol's body was continuously swallowed by the black hole, some strange changes were also taking place in the fragments of the Brilliant Star that had turned into something dark.

I'll help you, friend!

Velen stood up, and the staff of the Redeemer in his hand touched the ground. At this moment, the power of faith that the prophet had believed in for tens of thousands of years flowed out of Velen's hand like a waterfall of holy light, pouring into the magic power before him. Between the Holy Light of Austria.

boom

At this night, in the night sky of Thousand Needles, a bright golden beam of light rushed into the sky like a long sword, as if setting the buildings in the White Tower Harbor on fire.

The beam of light lasted for a full 3 minutes, causing countless believers who saw the beam of light to shout miracles.

And at the moment when the light dissipated, under the exclamation of Velen and Faol, the young kings rushed forward, looking at the center of the table melted by the holy light, the few crystal fragments that were originally filled with darkness, It has become a complete holy object...The surface of each of them is shining with a breathtaking golden light. In the gem, the golden liquid holy light is slowly flowing under the action of mysterious power. circulation.

Just from the outside, one can see the endless divine perception possessed by this crystal shard.

Bless the Light! It's restored!

Velen tightly held Faol's palm. The elder prophet was like a happy child. He carefully stretched out his hand and put the crystal fragment in his hand. He felt the energy from the gemstone, and he grew Take a breath.

Holy thing, the holy thing has returned...

But, but how do we use it?
