Since the trial of Garrosh at the Temple of the White Tiger, Taran Zhu has frequently had prophetic dreams.
Taran Zhu gradually realized that these prophecies came from the Elune.
In the prophecy, the Elune told him that in the near future, Orcs would fill the land and become the masters of Azeroth.
Taran Zhu firmly believed in the Moon Goddess's prophecy, and even after the destruction of Orgrimmar and the slaughter of the Orcs, she still had no doubts.
Guided by the Moon Goddess, Taran Zhu built a Pandaren breeding farm in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms.
Rather than a breeding ground, it would be more appropriate to call it a gathering place. At least most Pandaren are free; they have to work hard to support themselves.
The settlement is in preparation for the Orcs' return; the Orcs need food, and there aren't many Pandaren left in Pandaria.
Chen Stormstout was invited by Taran Zhu to visit the Vale of Eternal Blossoms settlement.
Taran Zhu led the way, passing two dilapidated Mogu statues in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Taran Zhu said with great interest:
"Do you know how much the Pandaren worship the Orcs? Especially their great Savior Thrall and Warchief Garrosh. The people are genuinely grateful to them and have suggested more than once that I remove those two statues and replace them with Thrall and Garrosh."
Chen Stormstout muttered, "Most Pandaren are confused, but some are clear-headed."
Taran Zhu laughed and said, "You mean the Lorewalker Cho and his subordinates? They are indeed very clear-headed, but unfortunately, it's of no use. Most Pandaren like to follow the crowd, lack their own thinking, and have become accustomed to lying. When lies become the mainstream of society, telling the truth becomes dangerous."
Chen Stormstout saw vast farmlands and many Pandaren working diligently in the fields. Taran Zhu pointed to the lush green fields and said:
"I've divided the Pandaren here into three classes based on the quality of their meat; farmers and gatherers are in the third class."
"Do they understand their Destiny?" Chen Stormstout.
"Of course, they feel proud and honored." Taran Zhu waved over a farmer and asked, "What do you think about becoming food for the Orcs?"
The farmer, head held high and chest puffed out, said:
"It is an honor for Pandaren Orcs. Our sole purpose in living in this world is to Consecration our flesh Pandaren blood to the Orcs and be eaten by Orcs. I feel proud and happy from the bottom of my heart."
Chen Stormstout's face darkened, and he asked, "What do you think of the Lorewalker Cho and other rebels?"
The farmer said indignantly, "They are destroying Azeroth, traitors to the Pandaren, and everyone has the right to kill them. If I ever see them, I will fight them to the death."
Taran Zhu waved goodbye, and the farmer continued with his work.
"In the Vale of Vale of Eternal Blossoms, every Pandaren is aware that Lorewalker Cho and his Shado-Pan Monastery disciples have repeatedly come to cause trouble, only to be driven away by the farmers; no one believes their lies. Every Pandaren in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms understands that they must defend their right to be eaten by the Orcs with their lives."
"This is truly tragic," Chen Stormstout sighed.
Taran Zhu smiled and said, "That's just how Pandaren are. They won't feel comfortable unless you bully and exploit them."
Ahead was a market, filled with merchants hawking their wares. Taran Zhu introduced it to them:
"Craftsmen and merchants are second-class citizens because they don't need to work hard, their meat is more tender, and they are more conscientious than farmers."
Zhu Talan called over a merchant and asked, "What is your view on the relationship between the Pandaren and the Orcs?"
The merchant argued confidently, "On the surface, Orcs and Pandaren appear to be prey to each other, but both contribute to Azeroth, just with different roles. Orcs fight valiantly to save Azeroth, Pandaren provide food for the Orcs. Pandaren are also part of the effort to save Azeroth, so I am proud."
Taran Zhu nodded. "Look, this is the Pandaren's awareness; they are always ready to sacrifice themselves."
Chen Stormstout, remaining silent, unsure of what to say.
Taran Zhu continued, "Literary workers and artists are the first tier. According to our research, music and poetry can make the meat of Pandaren more delicious. Their greater role is to brainwash the Pandaren —oh no, to spread correct ideologies and values, so that the Pandaren willingly accept their Destiny."
Taran Zhu summoned a Bards and asked, "Tell me, what is the past, present, and future of the Pandaren?"
The Bards and melodious tone:
"The Pandaren being eaten by the Orcs aligns with the Dao Follows Nature and the Unity of Heaven and Humanity. Long ago, the great Emperor Shaohao foresaw all of this. We Pandaren have tirelessly sought the path to freedom and liberation, yet we have never found it. The answer has finally been revealed in this era: being eaten by the Orcs is our path to liberation. All Pandaren should strive to make their flesh taste even more delicious. I am proud to be born Pandaren. The Pandaren may one day be wiped out by the Orcs, but we will forever be remembered by Azeroth."
Chen Stormstout couldn't help but sigh. He had heard this kind of talk far too many times. No matter how absurd something is, if it is repeated ten thousand times, it will still become the truth.
Looking at the bustling gathering place, Chen Stormstout asked, "How did you manage to make the Pandaren reproduce so quickly?"
Taran Zhu laughed smugly, "I was inspired by the oviparous nature of the Jinyu, and of course, I couldn't have done it without the help of the Elune. That's how the Pandaren were able to multiply and grow rapidly, providing the Orcs with ample meat. This was originally my grand ideal, a contribution to saving Azeroth, but someone ruined everything."
At this point, Taran Zhu said indignantly, "The great Tirion Fordring made indelible contributions to saving Azeroth, yet he was turned into Flesh-Eternal. What's the point of my hard work in raising the Pandaren?"
Chen Stormstout said in a low voice, "I heard Tirion Fordring did it voluntarily; we all know what he did."
Taran Zhu coldly said, "No one wants to become Flesh-Eternal, just like no Pandaren wants to be eaten by Orcs. They're just telling nice lies. Chen Stormstout, I hope we can join forces to rescue Tirion Fordring."
Chen Stormstout face expressionless, asked, "What benefit could I possibly gain?"
Taran Zhu waved his hand and said, "How about a 10% share of the Shadowmoon Valley Breeding Farm?"
"I don't want any shares here." Chen Stormstout spitting out the room, said, "I need one-tenth of the Pandaren here."
"Deal." Taran Zhu nodded.
The two of them alone could not rescue Tirion Fordring. Taran Zhu and Chen Stormstout landed at Stormwind City Harbor. It is believed that there are supporters of Tirion Fordring in all races of Azeroth, who are suspicious of Tirion Fordring becoming the Flesh-Eternal. The Kingdom of Stormwind has the most such supporters.
With the introduction of an acquaintance, the two Pandaren successfully joined a Veteran Club.
The club was located in a manor in western Elwynn Forest. As the two entered the club, they happened to hear a passionate speech.
"Tirion Fordring fed countless humans to the Orcs, and as a human, I feel proud and honored. I almost ended up on Savior 'Thrall dinner table, but was eliminated because of a scar on my body; it's a regret I'll carry for the rest of my life."
