The Blue Dragonflight possesses the Focusing Iris, Deathwing possesses the Demon Soul.
As the great Red Dragon Queen, the Life-Binder, Alexstrasza also has her own signature weapon.
A pair of terrifying Fist Weapons, known as the Sigh of the Red Dragon Queen, are hidden inside the Lava of a volcano in the northern part of Dragonbone Plains.
This is a divine weapon crafted by the Red Dragon Queen using her own shed skin and nails, a weapon inextricably linked to her flesh and blood.
"Sister!" A graceful sigh rang out.
The Red Dragon Queen was startled and turned around.
It was a gigantic figure, with a pair of extremely broad wings that blotted out the entire sky. Although it was just a projection, it exuded a dark aura of dominance.
"Deathwing," she whispered.
"My little sister!"
Deathwing did not descend in person; it was merely a projection he created using magic.
Hearing that familiar voice, the Red Dragon Queen was surprised to find that the Deathwing in the projection was very different from before.
Although just a few years ago, the four Dragon Kings, along with the Guardian Medivh, joined forces to defeat Deathwing, allowing the Black Dragon King to escape into Deepholm originally banished by the Titans to the Earth Elementals, in his dying moments.
But the wise Red Dragon Queen had long suspected that the cunning Deathwing shouldn't be defeated so easily.
She even suspected on several occasions that what was defeated was merely one of Deathwing's experiments.
The Dragon Aspects have lived for countless ages and know each other very well. In comparison, Medivh is just a little kid. Especially the Life-Binder, the Red Dragon Queen, knows this treacherous Black Dragon King very well.
Seeing the projection of the Black Dragon King was not due to the monster whose body was torn apart and flowed with Lava because it could not withstand the power of the Demon Soul. Deathwing now had an elegant and slender body. He swayed his long neck, and the previous ferocity was gone, replaced by a noble and dignified beauty.
If it weren't for that very familiar, unique arrogance and domineering Pride, and that disdain for everything, the Red Dragon Queen would almost have thought it was another Black Dragon.
"You succeeded?" the Red Dragon Queen stammered.
Deathwing's projection shook its head. "It's still far from enough. This is merely a goal, an immature blueprint. The new life form I envision... You see, sister, although you and Medivh joined forces to defeat me, I don't blame you. In fact, without you, I wouldn't have been able to make the decision to Metamorphosis."
"Are you insane, Deathwing?"
Throughout these endless years, both the Red Dragon Queen and the Black Dragon King have been trying to change themselves and make up for their internal defects.
The Red Dragon Queen is following an ancient path, aiming to evolve into the Invincible proto-dragon Galakrond from ancient times. This is why she resides in Dragonbone Plains, near the burial grounds of Galakrond.
The Black Dragon King, however, took a different approach. He decided to set his own evolutionary goals and forge a path never before trodden, evolving into a completely new and perfect species. This was a difficult and desperate path, one where there was no experience to draw upon.
"Death is rebirth." The image of the Black Dragon King revealed a noble smile:
"Life can only evolve through death, and the Metamorphosis of a new life from an old dragon's body is so beautiful. If we can succeed, perhaps we can break free from our shackles. My sister, why don't you cooperate with me?"
"Wishful thinking. I won't go crazy with you."
Even Deathwing couldn't guarantee that the life that miraculously Metamorphosis would still be the same as before, not to mention that Metamorphosis itself is fraught with unknown dangers.
The Red Dragon Queen, white smoke billowing from her mouth and nose, had no time to argue with Deathwing, repeating topics they'd debated countless times over millennia. Driven by vengeance, the queen said rudely, "Now, get out of my way."
"You want to find your weapon, you want revenge, don't you?"
The image of the Black Dragon King chuckled and spat out a ball of light, "Too bad you've got the enemy wrong."
The orb of light displayed the bloody process of Thrall killing the Red Dragon Princess and her companions, especially the scene where Thrall personally removed the Red Dragon Princess's heart. Large barrels of black potion Corruption the Red Dragon's flesh and blood, imprisoning the Red Dragon Princess's soul, a sight that horrified the Red Dragon Queen.
Throughout these endless ages, no one has ever treated the Red Dragon Clan in this way.
Deathwing's image was carefully observing the Red Dragon Queen, who slowly closed her eyes.
When the Red Dragon Queen calmed down, she had enough wisdom to judge the truth. Jaina's performance was not without flaws, and the scenes were frozen in the Queen's mind, making her know who to believe.
The Red Dragon Queen remained silent for a while, her dragon eyes lowered, mourning for a long time, as if nothing had happened, before flapping her wings and preparing to fly back to the Dragon Rest Temple.
"Are you giving up on revenge, my sister?" Deathwing was quite surprised.
"I know you're being coerced by Medivh. If it's inconvenient for you to act, I can certainly do it for you. I have some loyal subordinates who are willing to help you take the head of an Orcs, or even wipe out all the Orcs."
"If you do that, you will pay the price," the Red Dragon Queen threatened.
"I don't understand why you would so fiercely protect a green-skinned Orcs, even after your beloved daughter has been killed." Deathwing finally snapped, coldly demanding, "Alexstrasza, tell me the reason!"
The Red Dragon Queen remained silent.
Deathwing's rage grew stronger, making his image appear somewhat blurry.
"I've had my doubts for ten thousand years," Deathwing began, recalling the distant past. "To annihilate countless Demons, we joined forces to create the Demon Soul. Although we succeeded, I couldn't withstand the power of the Demon Soul, and my body was torn to pieces. It took me a considerable amount of time to repair my body."
"When I awoke, I found the world had changed. The Blue Dragonflight was nearly wiped out, Sindragosa was dead, and Malygos had gone mad. He's pinning all the blame on me, claiming I've been corrupted by N'Zoth. It's outrageous! Let that damned Old Gods come out and fight me one-on-one, let's see who can corrupt whom!"
Deathwing's tone was brimming with powerful confidence:
"Through my investigation, I learned that you were raising a creature called Orcs. This is not a species of Azeroth. They run, train, and fight in the wilderness. They cut down the trees of Northrend, capture the wild beasts here, over-mine minerals, and destroy the natural environment. In the less than a hundred years that I have been asleep, Northrend, which was once covered with vast primeval forests, has been transformed into a desolate wasteland."
"What's even more ridiculous is that the Blue Dragonflight was almost wiped out by these green-skinned creatures, and even the Blue Dragonflight queen wasn't spared. I captured an Orcs and learned that they came from a city called Orgrimmar. So, this was all Nozdormu's doing. Tell me, Alexstrasza, what exactly made you do this?"
"You know perfectly well what I'm asking, Deathwing. Our goal is the same as yours."
The Red Dragon Queen paused, then said solemnly:
"To avoid the arrival of the End Time."
