Rise of the blood elves

;

Being held in Vereesa's arms, with her sister's most helpless cries ringing in her ears, Sylvanas felt that all the precautions she had put in her heart since her death, and all the coldness she thought she had, were quietly disappearing. Melted to nothing.

She originally wanted to resist this warm thought that was both strange and familiar, which she had always regarded as a snake and scorpion, but she found that although it was as soft and silent as the early spring drizzle that drifted into the night with the wind, it had an irresistible magic power.

Gradually, Sylvanas gave up her resistance and her body became less tense. She stretched out her hands and gently rubbed her sister's back.

"Why do you say that, Ronin?" Her tone gradually became colder. If Ronin was the culprit who made Vereesa come to her and cry, she would definitely let that tall and thick goose understand what he meant. It's called real fear.

"He's missing," Vereesa sobbed.

"Missing" Sylvanas frowned slightly.

"A month ago, he went to complete a top-secret mission. Before leaving, he left a magic stone. He said that as long as he is still in Azeroth, as long as he is alive, the light of the magic stone will never dissipate. "

"But not long after he left, the magic stone went out. I didn't know what to do. I even wanted to find him. I could find him. The last signal of his magic stone was on a mountain in Kalimdor. disappeared"

"I really only have you. You are my last relative in this world."

Sylvanas could clearly feel that within a few months at most, the twins in her sister's belly would be born, but she lost the child's father when she was about to give birth.This incident brought a great blow to Vereesa.

But at the most helpless moment, she thought of me, a relative who had become an undead soul.Sylvanas inexplicably felt a warm current in her heart, and the feeling of being relied on made her find the feeling she had during her lifetime.

The last time Luo Ning disappeared, he was thrown into the outer realm by a space rift.Not long after she came back, she disappeared again. Speaking of which, Vereesa also had a very miserable life.

After recalling the feeling of being held in her sister's arms for the thousandth time, Sylvanas's eyes regained clarity, she burst out laughing, and asked, "Have you been staying in Quel'Thala all this time? Slonin came back this morning."

After the situation became tense, she had been sending people to monitor the camps of the coalition forces.A legendary powerhouse like Luo Ning is naturally the same target of surveillance as the leaders of various clans.The surveillance report on Ronin's return this morning with a high elf suspected to be Krasus, the elder of the Kirin Tor, was handed over to her by Nathanos Blightcaller a few hours ago.

Hope suddenly appeared in Vereesa's eyes, she raised her head and asked, "Really?"

The north was too dangerous. After she became pregnant, Ronin, who loved his wife deeply, asked her to return to Quel'Thalas and live in Silvermoon City.No matter what, this place is much safer than the military camp of the coalition forces of various tribes, and you can also hire experienced nannies and get better care.

Vereesa's face was very close, with wet tears still hanging on it, just like she was bullied as a child, but couldn't find her eldest sister, who had become a ranger and patrolled the forest, so she could only come to her to cry.Sylvanas discovered, or should I say, she didn't realize until now that this face was actually just buried in the depths of her memory, and she had never forgotten it.

Just like she did when she was a child, she gently stroked Vereesa's silver hair and comforted: "Silly boy, I will never lie to you. Luo Ning is really back. Maybe he is just delayed by something and has not been able to get out of his busy schedule." He just got away from official duties. But I think that when you traveled through Yongsong Forest and came here, he might have returned to your home in Silver Moon City and was extremely anxious because he could not find you. If you now Just go back, maybe you can meet him looking for you halfway."

The broken lungs were beating for air, and the air rushed through the equally broken vocal cords, making a hoarse and tearing sound.But Sylvanas felt that her tone at this time was filled with warmth that she had not seen in a long time.

"Okay, I'll go back right away," Vereesa hurriedly wiped away her tears, but she was worried about Sylvanas' situation, "What about you?"

Sylvanas replied: "Don't worry about me, go back quickly."

Vereesa left.

Sylvanas reluctantly watched her sister trudge through the forest one foot at a time, recalling the soft touch she felt when her fingers brushed against her back.

It wasn't until Vereesa completely disappeared from sight that she took a step forward and followed closely behind without being noticed by the other party.

I followed him for several hours.Fortunately, the blood elves had cleaned up the area, and there were no remaining undead wandering in Vereesa's path, and Vereesa did not encounter any danger.

It wasn't until she reached the Arendal River and entered the southern defense line of the Eversong Rangers that Sylvanas had to stop and lay down on a moss-covered rock under the eyes of a group of blood elf rangers. , watching my sister’s last journey from afar.

"Vereesa"

"Luo Ning"

Through the sparse gaps in the diseased trees, Sylvanas saw her brother-in-law, the red-haired Ronin, who was looking for her anxiously, and finally saw Vereesa walking towards her.

The two embraced and wept.

"Where have you been? Why have there been no news for so long? The light of the Magic Stone went out. I thought you were..."

"Blame me, blame me. I swear I will never leave you again this time. What are you doing in the Ghost Land?"

"I went back home and wanted to find my parents' belongings."

"You're still pregnant with Veresa, so don't do something stupid like this next time, okay?"

The two held hands and walked from the dark ghost land full of diseased trees and corroded soil, across the simple wooden bridge built by the Eversong Rangers on the Allendale River, and towards the Eversong Forest where the light was shrouded and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.

Looking at this warm scene, Sylvanas felt that something in her heart was becoming more and more paranoid under the burning flames of revenge, and the strong thoughts that were spreading and climbing in her mind like maggots on her tarsus were unconsciously spreading. The sleep is broken.

She took out a necklace from her arms and looked at it carefully.

Vereesa gave this to her before leaving.

She lifted up the necklace, and the crystal clear ruby ​​pendant at the bottom of the necklace was spinning in front of her eyes.On the back of the ruby, there is a line of small words engraved on it to Sylvanas, I will always love your sister, Alleria.

Vereesa did go to Fengxing Village, but not to look for her parents' relics.But this pendant was the pendant that fell into the tower of Windwalking Village when the blade of Frostmourne penetrated Sylvanas's chest. When Sylvanas died.

This was a gift from their eldest sister, Alleria, to her younger siblings before she left for the outer lands.Sylvanas had one, Vereesa had one, and the last one was placed in front of the tombstone of her youngest brother Liles, who died at the hands of the orcs during the Second War.

Now the eldest sister has left them too.

For either Sylvanas or Vereesa, the other is indeed the last relative in the world.

Sylvanas stared at the pendant, speechless for a long time.After a long time, she let out a long sigh. Although she could no longer feel the cold, she wrapped her cloak tightly in the breeze blowing through the forest and walked towards the way she came from, feeling extremely lonely.
