At Thrall's wedding on Mount Hyjal, Nozdormu, the Bronze Dragon Aspect, on behalf of the other Dragon King, nominated Kalecgos to become the Aspect of the Blue.

Although the number of Blue Dragonflight is very small, the so-called Aspect of the Blue is equivalent to a patriarch.

Kalecgos longed for this position, even if it was just in name only, but unfortunately, after Thrall's wedding, the dragon Dragon Kings seemed to have forgotten about it.

The weak Kalecgos could only seek comfort from Jaina, only to be scolded by Jaina, who mocked him for being too ambitious and should be more realistic and face his own weakness.

After the banquet, Kalecgos returned to his room, sullen and depressed. As a Blue Dragonflight, he didn't need to sleep like humans, so he lay in bed lost in thought.

There was a knock at the door. Kalecgos caught a whiff of it; Thrall was visiting.

Thrall strode into Kalecgos's room, a sinister smile on his face. "Kalecgos, the Aspect of the Blue, congratulations."

Kalecgos frowned, and complained unhappily, "Thrall, are you here to make fun of me?"

Thrall grinned and said sincerely:

"At today's banquet, the great Wrathion, the Harbinger, showed you special favor. You should know that Wrathion possesses the blood of Black Dragon, and he is willing to help you ascend to the throne of the Aspect of the Blue. With the help of me, the Savior, your wish will surely be fulfilled."

Kalecgos knew things weren't that simple and asked, "Then what's the price?"

Thrall plopped down and calmly said, "Garrosh the Destroyer has usurped Horde position of Warchief and plots to destroy Azeroth. I have assembled a large Orcs army in Pandaria, but unfortunately, it is not strong enough. Unless we form an alliance with the Alliance, we have no hope of saving Azeroth."

Kalecgos, in his position, naturally understood that the so-called saving Azeroth was just an excuse; everyone was fighting for their own ambitions. He sneered and asked:

"You want me to persuade Jaina?"

Thrall nodded slightly, then said righteously, "Azeroth is in grave danger. Only Jaina can persuade King Varian; there is no other way."

Kalecgos shrugged, saying hopelessly, "Fine, Thrall, I agree, but I can't guarantee success."

Thrall patted Kalecgos on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Wrathion the Harbinger has high hopes for you. You have unparalleled potential and you will definitely succeed."

Kalecgos got up to see his guest off and went back to bed. He had no confidence whatsoever in persuading Jaina; Kalecgos was as unreliable as becoming the Aspect of the Blue, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Deep within Kalecgos's consciousness, two souls engaged in a dialogue.

The dark soul originating from the Black Dragon Eggs roared angrily:

"Wrathion the Harbinger has possessed my perfect body. I must take my revenge. Of course, I won't forget to seek justice from Jaina. They must all die."

The Sathrovarr the Corruptor stared nervously at the mysterious soul.

Like Wrathion, the Black Dragon Eggs's soul is likely Harbinger from outer space. To avoid being detected by Aegwynn, the Black Dragon Eggs has always kept a low profile and carefully concealed itself.

Sathrovarr chuckled and said, "Forget it, you look so pathetic. You don't even have a physical body, what can you possibly do?"

The Black Dragon Eggs's soul curled up into a ball and whispered:

"Who says I have no way? If you want to destroy someone, you must first drive them mad. I see it clearly: the conflict between Thrall and Garrosh is actually a conflict between two powerful beings in the universe. If this conflict can be escalated, they, as pawns, risk their demise if they are not careful."

Sathrovarr asked in surprise, "So you want to involve Jaina? But you should know that Kalecgos can't persuade Jaina."

The Black Dragon Eggs said in a sinister tone:

"You should know my abilities. I excel at bewitching people. Even the Dragon King cannot harm me. Send Kalecgos to see Jaina, and leave the rest to me."

Sathrovarr hesitated for a moment, but he was eager to see Kalecgos become the Aspect of the Blue, so he agreed.

Kalecgos trusted the Sathrovarr the Corruptor implicitly, so he visited Jaina late at night.

Jaina, who was already resting, was slightly displeased to hear of Kalecgos's visit and called out loudly through the door, "Go back, Kalecgos. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Kalecgos whispered, "Jaina, I have something important to discuss with you."

Jaina initially wanted to refuse, but suddenly found Kalecgos's voice to have a unique charm, as warm as spring, which touched her heart.

The desire to meet Kalecgos arose within Jaina invited Kalecgos to sit in the living room, got up, dressed herself, and carefully groomed herself.

The two sat facing each other, Jaina with a spring-like smile looking at Kalecgos, finding the Blue Dragonflight increasingly pleasing to the eye.

Kalecgos did not hide anything and honestly confessed:

"Thrall just contacted me, saying he supports me becoming the Aspect of the Blue, on the condition that I convince you. Thrall says Garrosh is plotting to destroy Azeroth, and only by allying with the Alliance can Azeroth be saved."

Jaina nodded slowly. Although she found Kalecgos incredibly charming and radiant, she didn't lose her composure and analyzed the situation carefully:

"I must support either Garrosh or Thrall, depending on how much benefit I can gain from them. Garrosh is too arrogant and disdainful of others, and has never sent anyone to contact Theramore. I am biased towards Thrall. To be honest, I am still waiting for Garrosh's attitude."

Kalecgos said with feigned seriousness, "While Thrall is a complete bastard, Garrosh is even more ruthless. When it comes to wielding weapons, Thrall is clearly no match for Garrosh. If we consider the long-term interests, we should support the weaker Orcs against the stronger ones to maintain a delicate balance."

Normally, Jaina would have found countless reasons to ridicule Kalecgos's comments, but at this moment, she found them particularly insightful and said tenderly:

"You're absolutely right. I'll listen to you. I'll go and negotiate with King Varian tomorrow."

In Mount Hyjal, Jaina once used her Charm to seduce Malfurion.

Who would have thought that fortunes would turn around, and one day she too would be blinded by the Charm.

The next morning, Jaina first discussed the matter with Wrathion and Thrall, and then took Kalecgos with her to Stormwind City.

Stormwind Keep.

King Varian sat enthroned on his throne, Jaina announced loudly, "King Majesty, I bring you good news: Thrall is willing to hand over Prince Anduin to you for your disposal."

King Varian remained unmoved and coldly replied:

"Thrall wants my help to deal with Garrosh? Hmph, impossible. It's a civil war between the two most powerful Orcs. Why don't I wait until they've finished fighting before cleaning up the mess?"

Jaina smiled and said, "Thrall has the same idea. He will do everything in his power to weaken Garrosh, and the Alliance army can join the Battlefield at the most opportune moment."

Varian roared, "Do you take me for an idiot? Garrosh has a full army of 100,000. Doesn't he know to keep reserves in case of the Alliance sneak attack?"

Jaina said confidently, "Garrosh will never expect me to get involved. My teleportation magic can guarantee that the Alliance army will suddenly appear behind Garrosh."
