Thanks to media coverage, Kael'thas is portrayed as an outrageously wicked figure, like a monstrous flood.
In less than three days, tens of thousands of indignant adventurers arrived in Quel'Thalas to join the Shattered Sun Offensive.
However, this is far from enough.
Lor'themar obeyed Brutallus's orders and went to Outland to Turalyon.
Turalyon initially served under Archbishop Alonsus Faol. During the Second War, he served as Ser Lothar's Adjutant. After Ser Lothar's death, he took command and successfully destroyed the Dark Portal.
Turalyon distinguished himself in the war against the Orcs, and is considered a great hero of mankind. A statue of him stands in the Valley of Heroes in Stormwind City.
However, like all distinguished generals, neither Lordaeron nor Stormwind City could tolerate the existence of a hero more famous than the King.
Turalyon understood this deeply, so he joined the Army of the Light and followed the Mother of Holy Light Xe'ra, to Argus Planet, becoming the Vanguard in the fight against the Burning Legion.
On this day, Turalyon arrived in Sha'tar City to deliver supplies, Lor'themar came to visit him, immediately asking with concern:
"Turalyon Tulayan, it's been a long time. How are you doing?"
Turalyon's wife, Alleria, the eldest of the Windrunner Sisters, had always been fond of High Elves. Coupled with her limited understanding of the situation in Azeroth and her ignorance of Lor'themar's true nature, she eagerly inquired:
"I've heard that the situation in Silvermoon City is not peaceful. What exactly is going on?"
Lor'themar sighed, "It's a long story. It's all Prince Kael'thas's fault. First, he colluded with Illidan, and now he's joined the Burning Legion. Shattrath City and Silvermoon City joined forces to establish the Shattered Sun Offensive, sending an army of 50,000 to attack the Magisters' Terrace. Unexpectedly, they were ambushed and wiped out. Silvermoon City is on the verge of collapse."
Turalyon gasped. "I've dealt with Kael'thas before. He's a bit naive, but he's not a bad person at heart. How could this happen?"
Lor'themar lowered his head. "The Burning Legion is most adept at bewitching people; Kael'thas must have fallen for the Legion trick."
Turalyon nodded. "I witnessed the Legion's treachery and cunning on Argus Planet. By the way, what are your plans?"
Lor'themar bowed deeply and earnestly requested, "I would like to request that Commander Turalyon personally lead the adventurers of Azeroth to jointly conquer Kael'thas."
Turalyon paused for a moment, then said in surprise, "Kael'thas's collusion with the Burning Legion should be the responsibility of the Alliance and the Horde, not mine."
Lor'themar shook his head. "Commander, you are unaware that the great Savior Thrall has been assassinated and is currently in a coma, unable to unite the forces of the Alliance and the Horde."
Upon hearing the name Thrall, Turalyon frowned and warned:
"Lor'themar, I don't blame the Blood Elves for joining the Horde, but you'd better stay away from Thrall. That Orcs is very cunning. By the way, didn't you kill Kael'thas at Tempest Keep? How did he end up taking over the Magisters' Terrace?"
Lor'themar looked slightly embarrassed, his mind racing. "The Burning Legion used Fel to resurrect him."
"Resurrection requires a corpse, so how did the Legion get Kael'thas's corpse?" Turalyon asked without hesitation.
Lor'themar stammered, "There are old cliques of the Sunstrider family within the Blood Elves; they're the ones who stole Kael'thas's body."
Turalyon, experienced in struggle, felt the matter was not so simple and persisted relentlessly:
"If the Legion resurrects Kael'thas, will they also resurrect his subordinates?"
"This!!" Lor'themar was somewhat overwhelmed.
Turalyon pressed on, aggressively asking:
"Are all the Magisters' Terrace Demons of the Legion? From what I know of the Burning Legion, their soldiers are extremely proud and wouldn't obey a Blood Elf's leadership."
Lor'themar felt that there were more and more flaws, and could only helplessly lower his head:
"Well, to be honest, we didn't actually win at Tempest Keep; both the Scryers and the Aldor suffered heavy losses."
Turalyon nodded. "That's more like it. Kael'thas leads Silvermoon City's elite forces; their combat power is extraordinary."
Lor'themar said with a sorrowful expression, "After the fall of Tempest Keep, Kael'thas, incited by the Legion, launched a surprise attack on Silvermoon City, captured M'uru, and killed tens of thousands of Blood Elves. When I returned to Silvermoon City, I saw rivers of blood, my people torn apart, a truly horrific sight. Now Silvermoon City is on the verge of collapse. I beg you, for Alleria's sake, to help us through this crisis."
Turalyon pondered for a long time, realizing he couldn't rely on only one side of the story, and then said:
"I can't agree to that right now. How about this, you take me to Quel'Thalas first, and we'll make a decision after we figure out the situation."
Lor'themar was overjoyed, and the two of them traveled through the Portal in Shattrath City to the Shattered Sun Offensive base in Quel'Thalas.
Turalyon wanted to keep a low profile, but as soon as he stepped through the Portal, he saw countless spotlights flashing and was surrounded by the media.
"Turalyon, how will you lead the Shattered Sun Offensive to victory over the Evil Kael'thas?"
"Commander, what is your opinion on Kael'thas's collusion with the Burning Legion?"
"Commander, how is your relationship with Alleria? A hundred years from now, when you are old and frail, how will you maintain harmony in your marriage?"
Turalyon turned around and found the Portal closed, glaring at Lor'themar:
"This was all your arrangement?"
Lor'themar quickly waved his hands. "I'm innocent! I knew absolutely nothing about it!"
Turalyon snorted coldly, about to deal with the media, when he suddenly smelled an unusual odor.
He approached a Blood Elf guard, examined him carefully for a while, and then suddenly struck, his Holy Light slamming into the guard's head.
The Blood Elf revealed its true form: a tall Felguard. Turalyon angrily drew his sword to strike, but Lor'themar stopped him.
"Lor'themar, it's you who's colluding with the Legion!" Turalyon said coldly.
Lor'themar hastily explained, "Commander, you are unaware of the situation. We have incorporated a small squad from the Burning Legion, and they are willing to join the Shattered Sun Offensive."
Turalyon sheathed his weapon, growing increasingly suspicious of Lor'themar, and sneered:
"I've fought on Argus Planet for years and never managed to incorporate any soldiers into my Legion, yet you've done it so easily."
Lor'themar blushed and quickly changed the subject. "Commander, the welcoming banquet is ready."
"I don't have time for your welcome banquet. Take me to the place where 50,000 adventurers were ambushed." Turalyon's attitude was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Lor'themar could only lead a squad of Personal Guards to escort Turalyon to Moonscar Valley.
Turalyon calculated the distance. Moonscar Valley was very close to the Shattered Sun Offensive base. As long as scouts were sent out, Kael'thas would not be able to ambush them here.
The middle of Moonscar Valley was already stained red with blood. Turalyon followed the trail of blood, pointing to the ground and saying:
"Dig here."
The Personal Guards began digging and soon unearthed a large number of bones. Turalyon crouched down to examine them carefully:
"The Burning Legion places great emphasis on logistics and rarely uses the flesh and blood of its enemies as rations, which is quite similar to the Orcs' style."
Lor'themar was taken aback and argued, "The Orcs army couldn't possibly have entered Quel'Thalas."
"Just ask."
Turalyon's fingertips gathered a bright Holy Light, illuminating the surrounding area, and some of the Restless Souls gathered around him.
"What did you see?" Turalyon asked.
The Restless Souls of an Ogre screamed, "We were ambushed! A Trolls turned us into Tough Jerky!"
