Rise of the blood elves

At noon the next day, a meeting was taking place in a conference room on the top floor of the Tower of Sunfury that faced north and had a large floor-to-ceiling window that afforded a panoramic view of the northern coastal areas of Quel'Thalas.

"My lords, these are the letters brought back by His Highness the Prince." Saladre, the prince's advisor who had been staying in Silvermoon City, respectfully saluted and distributed a dozen wax-sealed letters with the Sunstrider royal emblem printed on them. In everyone's hands.

Angmar stood quietly by the window, looking at the island of Quel'Danas in the north in trance.

The flame strike was suspended beside him, and the fiery red light emitted by the sword could compete with the blazing sun, dyeing half of his body and the surrounding things a deeper fiery red.

"Hiss!" The sound of the letter opener cutting the envelope came one after another.

In the past, when the late King Anastarian Sunstrider was still alive, he would always convene members of the Silver Moon Council to discuss state affairs in this conference room with an excellent view.After Silvermoon City was recaptured, Prince Kael'thas has been holding meetings here, issuing decrees one after another, and using effective means to lead the suffering tribesmen out of their predicament.

The place where Angmar stood was Prince Kael'thas' favorite place to stay.

The weather is surprisingly good today. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can vaguely see the outline of Quel'Danas Island.At this time, the holy land in the hearts of all blood elves was shrouded in bursts of light, just like a cocoon of light wrapped around it, pulsating with a strange rhythm, expanding and contracting.

The sea surface reflects the sun and sparkles.If you ignore the smoke and smoke in Silver Moon City, the beautiful scenery in front of you is indeed pleasing to the eye.But not only Angmar didn't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery, but the same was true for the high-level blood elves present at the meeting.

The controlled mad compatriots, the corpses of the resurrected compatriots, the flying stumps and the splattered blood were all vivid in their minds. The most important thing was that they were all exhausted.

The fire, which had ruined the reconstruction work that had taken a lot of manpower and material resources for a month, will not be extinguished until dawn.Everyone stayed up all night. After the battle, Lor'thema Theron and Liadrin led their troops back to defend the Arendal River defense line. Together with the newly recruited troops, they repelled the Amani who tried to take advantage of the situation. Troll.

Angmar and the Magisters followed Anveena back to the Island of Quel'Danas.

After she got a drop of water from the Well of Eternity last night, she immediately returned to the location of her original form and began to absorb it.The light cocoon currently wrapped over the entire island is emitted during the absorption process.

In the Sunwell Temple, everyone met several colleagues who were seriously injured.Magister Carlyle described the critical situation that occurred on his side when the battle broke out in Silvermoon City.Norton Lankong, who looked like he had completely changed his appearance, was actually a puppet possessed by a fear devil.

The Dread Lord suddenly attacked and replaced the "model of nepotism". He used strange spells to isolate everyone from the Holy Tree and the incarnation of the Sunwell. He directly subdued the four magisters in the temple and learned that After the turmoil broke out in Silvermoon City, dozens of elite guards came to strengthen the temple's defense.

If Anweina hadn't appeared in time and repelled the Dread Lord, the consequences would have been disastrous.

After properly arranging the injured magister and confirming that Anweina was in good condition and could completely absorb the energy of the Well of Eternity without help, Angmar teleported back to Silvermoon City with Idonis and others, and was busy putting out the fire. , busy treating injured civilians and soldiers until an hour ago.

During this period, Dathrohan of the Silver Hand and Drek'Thar of the Frostwolf clan informed Angmar that the war in the south was still critical. They would rest until dawn and would immediately leave for the south to support the Hinterland Wildhammers, who were also attacked by demons. Eagle's Nest Mountain, the home of the dwarves, is a land rich in griffons with the best bloodline in the Eastern Continent.

Alexandros Mograine, who has recently been known as the "Ashbringer" among various tribes, is leading the regular troops of the Silver Hand with General Abbendis, and the Wildhammer dwarves are struggling to resist the evil forces controlled by demons. Forest trolls of the Branch and Deadwood tribes.

Angmar did not bother these thousands of coalition soldiers to take on any extra tasks, rejected their kindness to help put out the fire, and ordered them to provide sufficient food, drinking water, resting places and other guarantees.

After dawn, he sent people to use the magic network energy accumulated in the three magic temples in Yongsong Forest to open a portal to the northern part of the Hinterlands for the coalition forces, and sent away the army that was fighting for the safety of the entire northern continent. , and the heroic teacher who relieved Silver Moon City from the disaster.

Finally, an hour ago, all the senior officials who had roughly resolved the aftermath of the most tragic battle since the invasion of Alsace gathered together again because of the prince's news. At the same time, when the prince was unable to effectively control the ethnic group, they discussed matters related to The next step for the blood elves' future.

The casualty reports of this battle were also tallied.

About 1000 civilians were killed and tens of thousands injured in the densely populated Xicheng District.A total of more than 2000 craftsmen and more than 5000 conservative aristocratic armed personnel were killed in the battle in Dongcheng District.In this battle, mages, rangers, and regular troops suffered over a thousand casualties in total. The heaviest casualties were the recruits on the Arendal River defense line who were attacked twice by demons and Amani trolls, with more than [-] casualties.

These recruits, who had only been recruited for less than a few months, were severely undertrained. Fortunately, after experiencing this tragic battle, they had been baptized by blood and fire.

"This is really great." Liadrin, who had not yet changed out of her blood-stained Blood Knight standard armor, let out a sigh of relief.

Even though they had learned the news through Angmar last night that the prince was not dead, everyone was still excited when reading the letter, and their hearts were completely relieved.

The blood elves cannot live without Kael'thas.There has never been anyone like him. He was not understood by others in the past. He often stayed in a foreign land to do work that had nothing to do with his tribe. However, he returned and gained unanimous support from everyone within a few months.

The prince is the well-deserved leader of the blood elves who were reborn after the disaster, and is the core of the operation of the entire machine.Without him, not only would this machine not be able to operate, but the blood elves would also lose the support in their hearts.

Seeing that everyone had finished reading the letter, Saladre began to introduce the situation: "The tribesmen who participated in the Battle of Dalaran that day are still alive. The prince is surrounded by people including Romans, Telesta, Calpurnia and others. Dozens of magisters and intact personal guards,

"The prince and the survivors of Dalaran went to an abandoned city called Shattrath. It was the former capital of the Eredar race who called themselves Draenei, meaning self-exiled people. It was later destroyed by the orc tribe. .His Highness met with their leaders and also met with a strange creature of light, the Naaru, whose name was Adal

"His Highness also met Guardian Medivh's beloved disciple Khadgar there, one of the five missing heroes of the Dark Portal. The specific situation was explained in the letter. In short, the land was once called Draenor, and now we call it Although the broken world of Outland is firmly controlled by the Burning Legion, His Highness the Prince is safe. It's just that they have difficulty returning to Azeroth. His Highness is also thinking of a way. It is said that the space ship A'dal is traveling on has the ability to travel through the infinite. His Highness is in Send people to learn from the Naaru this technology that is far beyond ours for many generations. But they do not have the resources to build similar spaceships. We still need to find a way to open the portal here to welcome His Highness and the others back."

Angmar's thoughts began to spin as consultant Saradre introduced him.

The history related to the Naaru'adal in Outland did occur at the same time as the Third War on Azeroth.

After the portal opened by Ner'zhul tore apart the world of Draenor, three of the five former heroes of the Dark Portal were involved in the turbulence of time and space.

Alleria and Turalyon were rescued by Zera, the original Naaru Mother of Holy Light, and went to the twisted void where time flows at different speeds. Together with the Holy Light Legion composed of multiple races in the universe, they resisted the Burning Legion and launched a thousand-year journey. The journey of the war.

Khadgar was rescued by another naruadal and returned to the Outland on the Storm Fortress, and then rebuilt the city of Shattrath with the draenei who hid in the mountains and forests under the threat of the orcs.While he maintained contact with the Alliance expeditionary forces at Honor Keep and Wildhammer Fortress in Shadowmoon Valley, he learned unheard of knowledge from A'dal.

It wasn't until a few months later that the third war on Azeroth's side ended. Archimonde was defeated. Illidan seized the Eye of Sargeras and bombarded the Frozen Throne. After failure, he led his men to escape to the outside world. What follows is The well-known story of Warcraft took place.

Later, the Dark Portal was reopened by Kazzak, the Lord of the Burning Legion, and the Burning Crusade began.

Thinking of this, Angmar couldn't help but smile secretly.

What he didn't expect was that, by some strange combination of circumstances, Prince Kael'thas would go to the Outlands during this period, and come into contact with several key figures who would have a profound impact on the history of Azeroth in later generations, including Velen, Al Dahl, Khadgar

Angmar found that he was very much looking forward to the subsequent development. It was completely different from the canon history. Prince Kael'thas, who had no preconditions for being corrupted at all, would be with the Draenei, Adal, and even the people he captured in Silvermoon City in the canon history. What happened to Muru as the "Holy Light Battery"?

Not only that, Illidan is also leaving for Outland soon.But this time, the blood elves did not loyal to him because of their need to sip magical means, and reached the Outland first.If the two sides meet together, how will the relationship develop?

Angmar even wondered whether the sons of Lothar would unite with the blood elves, draenei, and broken ones to attack the dark temple controlled by the abyss lord Magtheridon first, and jointly restore a peaceful world to the outside world.

"Since Khadgar is still alive, then" Liadrin tightened her grip on the letter in her hand, "where is Ms. Alleria?"

Alleria Windrunner, the eldest sister of Ranger General Sylvanas, is one of the most skilled rangers in Quel'Thalas.This family is already extraordinary, and her various heroic actions during the Second War and afterward have added even more glory to this family name.

Saladre shook his head regretfully, "It is said that Lady Alleria disappeared together with Turalyon, but His Highness the Prince found their son, Arator."

"Ah" Liadrin was a little disappointed, then she frowned and asked in disbelief: "Son"

Half-elves born from the union of high elves and half-humans are extremely rare.Dalaran's master, Ran'darok, is one of the few.Angmar couldn't help but think to himself that half-elves were not uncommon, or in other words, half-elves with the blood of Windrunner were not uncommon.Because at this time, Vereesa should have been pregnant with the child of the human mage Ronin, and they were twins.

"That's right." Saladre said, "Okay, everyone, this is the general situation. Since we cannot communicate with the prince, His Highness also stated in the letter that if his instructions are not in line with the current situation, you can You can discuss and decide on your own, and the other is to find a way to open the portal as soon as possible. Regarding this, the three seats of Angmar will tell you the details."

Angmar came to his senses, responded, left the window, and walked in front of everyone.

The conference room had been ransacked by demons and had only been tidied up hastily.Due to excessive fatigue, everyone's seats and sitting postures were very casual, not as rigorous as a formal meeting.

Lor'themar, Halduron, several high-ranking magisters, and some orthodox nobles who served the military all cast their eyes on him.

Angmar never imagined that he would be able to discuss plans with these crucial leaders as an equal.

He took out the moon crystal brought back by Prince Toronin of Kael'thas from his arms, and cast the spell to show it to everyone in mid-air.

"Everyone knows that if you want to open a long-distance portal, you must have the exact location of the destination. There is an inseparable and close connection between the Moon Crystal sent back by His Highness and the other two. According to us It is inferred that as long as it is magically amplified, it should be able to slightly perceive the location of the other two crystals, even if they are far away in another world."

Angmar added in his mind: I hope it can, otherwise he will have to go to Mount Hyjal and find a way to snatch the Head of Gul'dan from the Burning Legion.

He continued: "The plan is not complicated. We are going to Dalaran. At the portal opened by the Burning Legion to summon that powerful existence, which is the weak point of the space barrier, we will use the moon crystal to connect with each other and open the way to Germany. Rano’s portal.”

Lor'themar narrowed his one eye slightly and said, "But Dalaran has been occupied by the Scourge. No one can sneak in there, let alone open the portal there."

Angmar nodded heavily, "Yes. So we must rely on the power of our allies. No matter from which point of view, the goals of us and the northern tribes are surprisingly consistent at this time to eliminate the natural disaster. At least we must eliminate the entrenched The Scourge of Dalaran.”

Everyone pondered for two seconds after hearing this.

Lor'themar and Halduron exchanged opinions, and the latter said: "Fifteen hundred Eversong rangers and two hundred Farstriders can enter the battlefield at any time."

"Except for the necessary troops to guard against Zul'Aman, we can dispatch three thousand regular soldiers." A senior military official also said.

"The Blood Knight is ready to go." Liadrin's answer was brief.

Angmar looked at several colleagues, and the high-level magisters all nodded in approval.

"Then, together with the [-] spellbreakers under Captain Lias and the mid-level mages under the Magister, our strength is considerable. Please handle the logistics issues properly in the next few days. Recharge your batteries. I will contact the coalition forces to discuss the specific matters of sending troops to Dalaran again."

The issue was decided like this.For today's blood elves, welcoming back Prince Kael'thas and those top-notch experts with vast knowledge is a top priority.

Everyone discussed some more details, and when the meeting came to an end, Liadrin spoke up to attract everyone's attention.

"I have something to say. It's about the Holy Light, or in other words, about the existence in the dark that guides the Blood Knight to control the Holy Light."
