Ironaya, who is self-sealed in the Uldaman facility, is a follower of Tyr. It is not even a superior-subordinate relationship under Titan Guardian System, but a kind of following that stems from inner morality. She calls Tyr her "master", which represents her respect and obedience from the bottom of her heart.
The collapse and confusion of this female giant also represents the extraordinary "Legacy of Tyr" contained in Uldaman.
Under her leadership, everyone passed through this ancient underground palace, and they saw the abandoned workshops and forging grounds. According to Ironaya's introduction, that was where the ancestors of the dwarves once worked.
Of course, at that time they were still the "Earthen Shapers" under the Titan Keepers series.
"From a certain moment, Curse of Flesh broke out without warning in Titan Construct. That power changed you. The void made you change from a pure and firm rock to a fragile and suspicious one, and then transformed you into flesh and blood full of emotions.
The guardians generally regard this as a "sign of corruption" and order Iron Vrykul, who is still healthy, to hunt and kill you all.
But Master Tyr believed that the spread of Curse of Flesh meant some more terrifying changes. He went to patrol the world to find the cause, but he did not expect that the power of darkness had erupted in the heart of Titan Keepers.
By the time he realized something was wrong, the entire Guardian system was in jeopardy."
Ironaya led the way, the giantess passed through the towering divine palace, she said in a low tone:
"We were summoned to Titan City Ulduar by the master of Tyr. He was determined to bring order to the chaos, but the entire Titan City was extremely silent. The arrogant and ruthless chief administrator Odin was sealed in his Golden Citadel. The wise and benevolent chief administrator Lai also disappeared at the border of the world without any news.
Master Tyr could not get any help, but he did not choose to ignore the rampant darkness, but used his own way to carry out the final and most determined resistance.
The Qiraji you found under the Tirisfal area
The monsters in the void are not just a counterattack from the imprisoned Old God, they are ordered by the former Titan Keepers and the current fallen rebel, "King of Wisdom" Loken! A coward and bastard who is endowed with endless wisdom by Pantheon, but has a dirty and weak heart!
Ulduar has fallen into the power of darkness. Archaedas and I are the only Titan Keepers left in that once glorious system, and we are still awake.
At least we think we're still awake."
She stopped, and in front of her was a thick and sealed hall, surrounded by already formed Stone Colossus, which were the oldest rock life forms. There were sophisticated facilities to continuously send them out from the casting hall in front of her, and they were used as spare weapons in the armory below Uldaman.
The clear sound of hammering and forging kept ringing from the hall in front, which was the sound of forger Archaedas working day and night to shape the colossus.
Ironaya chose painful self-isolation in the despair and helplessness of being hunted by his own people, but Archaedas did not. He started forging on the day he arrived at Uldaman's underground palace. He wanted to prepare for the death strangulation that was bound to come.
Just like the choice made by guardian Tyr when faced with betrayal, Archaedas has no intention of surrendering to the violence of darkness.
"As long as we dare to leave Uldaman, Loken's fallen servant will not let us go. The coward who is afraid of Pantheon's punishment will not give up until he takes back "Disc of Norgannon" that records all his scandals."
Ironaya pointed forward and said:
"The Titan disc that can contact Pantheon at the Ulduar observatory is the Legacy that the owner of Tyr gave his life to the world! There is also another Platinum Disc that records his "last words."
The two things are behind the forging hall of Archaedas. He personally guards the evidence that the master fought for with his life.
Archaedas is stronger than me and more stubborn than me. Maybe you will have to spend some time to convince him."
Diakum motioned to the giantess to open the forging hall.
The people behind him picked up their weapons one after another, and they watched vigilantly at the giant guard statues around them that might move at any time.
These rocks Warrior, which Titan Keepers personally pounded out, are quite difficult to deal with, and each one is imbued with the power of the guardian. More importantly, if Archaedas has been forging stone statues for the past 30,000 years, then the number of Stone Colossus buried under the Uldaman underground palace is absolutely exaggerated to the point of unimaginable.
"Don't worry, without the infusion of Forge of Will, these stone statues will not have matching minds. They only have powerful bodies and strength, but no "soul" to control them.
They cannot all be awakened.
Most of them are destined to Long Sleep and never see the light of day in this Badlands."
Diakum is not as nervous as others. In fact, since entering Uldaman, he has never entered a state of preparation for combat, which means that he believes that he will not encounter danger here.
He said to others:
"It is impossible for Archaedas not to know this, but he still continues to forge the stone statue. His "firmness" is more like a kind of self-abandonment in despair. Forging the rock Warrior is what the equally helpless guardian trapped here the One can do."
Vigilant looked at the giant stone door slowly rising in front of him. He held Silver Hand Warhammer in his hand and strode into the extremely hot forging hall.
He saw a black Stone Colossus swinging a heavy forging hammer, forging and beating the shapeless stones into the shape of rocks Warrior, and then sending them into Titan Keepers's furnace to complete their quenching.
A whole precision forging assembly line is in operation, and the black giant in charge of it is extremely efficient, and can shape a prototype of Stone Colossus in just a few minutes.
He must be an expert and master in this field. His movements are smooth and not jerky, but his posture is very lonely, like a walking zombie maintaining the activity of muscle memory.
"Pantheon is gone! Titan are all dead, and their souls were captured by Dark Titan and tortured in my hometown."
Diakum threw Silver Hand Warhammer in his hand towards the giant, and he shouted loudly:
"Titan City's Ulduar's chaos came from this. You lost your master and were no longer firm. It wasn't Old God that corrupted you! It was the overall weakness of Arcane Force that caused cracks in your firm minds. Only then did Yogg-Saron find the opportunity.
You guessed that, right?"
"Bang"
The heavy forged stone hammer fell to the ground, and Archaedas, whose body was made of obsidian, turned around and took over the flying Silver Hand Warhammer.
The giant guardian who was pinched by True Titan God Khaz'goroth himself remained silent, just stroking the ancient war hammer in his hand. As Diakum watched, the forger Archaedas did not attack him.
The precise assembly line stopped running, and the only sound left in the hall was the roar of flames as the forge burned.
After nearly ten seconds of silence, the Obsidian Giant whispered:
"Order is dead."
"Maybe that thing wasn't alive in the first place."
Aegwynn strode forward, holding high the golden pendant in her hand, and said loudly:
"The Star Soul Lord who was imprisoned by you has awakened. She ordered me to destroy the Unified Field of All Things. This land of Titans is also one of the nodes! Giant, if you are not going to stop us, then hand over control of Uldaman.
I won't warn you a second time!"
Archaedas came to the end of the forging hall with Silver Hand Warhammer in hand, and placed the warhammer that once belonged to Tyr in the groove of the wall. Amidst the low sound of gear rotation, the road to the inner underground palace opened.
"There, go get it yourself."
He pointed to the road leading to the depths and said in a dead voice:
"Master Tyr's Legacy has been waiting for you for tens of thousands of years. My mission with Ironaya is over."
"Go ahead."
Diakum waved his hand to Aegwynn and the dragons, motioning them to take out Tyr's Legacy. He himself stayed in the forging hall and said to Archaedas who was sitting on a huge stone throne:
"Do you know that Tyr left a spare body in the hometown of Dragon Aspects?"
"Hmm."
The mentally collapsed forger Archaedas nodded, looked at the stone hammer he threw away, and said:
"That is the holy silver body I forged for Master Tyr, and it is also his biggest secret. He cannot trust other guardians, so he can only hand over the "key" to unlock the secret to his most trusted dragon friends."
"Then why don't you resurrect him?"
Dick asked:
"It took more than 10,000 years from the time you escaped from Loken to Uldaman to War of the Ancients to tear the world apart. As long as you are willing, Dragon Aspects will definitely help you resurrect Tyr.
Dragon Kings regard Tyrs as their friends and they will try their best to help."
"But why resurrection?"
Archaedas asked rhetorically:
"Isn't it the most perfect ending for Tyr master to die as a hero?
So that he does not have to bear the evil deeds he has done with his own hands, so that he does not have to suffer mental torture and torture, so that he will not degenerate into a weak and dirty lunatic like Loken!
Titans shape us.
Titan appointed us to be the protectors of Azeroth World. They told us that everything we do is to maintain a beautiful order. What a grand mission that is!
But Mr. Tyr unfortunately understood the truth.
What prompted him to commit suicide was not only the betrayal from his guardian brothers, but also the questioning of his soul.
After the Titans fell, their order could no longer restrain our minds, causing us to doubt those things we once considered "right."
"What the hell are you talking about, Archaedas!"
Ironaya stepped forward, grabbed her companion, and slapped its obsidian head hard. She felt that Archaedas might have a problem with its mental circuit, and it could definitely be fixed with a violent repair method, as long as she punched it a few more times.
But Archaedas pushed her away.
This obsidian giant obviously knew more, and it roared excitedly:
"Mortals don't understand, don't you understand too? Ironaya, you and I have served Master Tyr for so many years, don't you have a clear understanding of his power?
The two Qiraji Brutes are indeed very powerful, but Master Tyr will not have to fight them to the point of self-destruction in order to win! He is Warrior shaped by Master Aggramar! Old God can't do anything to his Huijin will!
Don't be stupid!
That's not death in battle, that's suicide!
He finally chose to free himself under the torment of what he had done in the past. He could not find a reason for his continued existence in this world, just like me now.
I'm lost
Are we protecting the world or harming it?
Titan asks us to guard the order: their order, or the order of this world?
If our Creator is in conflict with the pure will of this world, then should we, the guardians who are ordered to protect the world, obey the Creator's orders, or perform our own duties?"
Archaedas roared:
"Tell me, Ironaya, tell me, how do we choose? Master Tyr couldn't get the answer, so he self-destructed. Now it's our turn, it's our turn to answer!"
The Creator is dead!
Order is dead!
What is the meaning of our existence?
Ah, this question is too difficult."
In the deepest part of Uldaman's inner underground palace, Aegwynn ignored the collection of treasures from Tyr stored around her, and she directly took down two Platinum Disc, one large and one small, from the deepest throne.
Aegwynn checked the two discs, then put away Disc of Norgannon, which recorded Titan City Ulduar's "fallen past" and had extremely high authority, and handed Tyr's silver disc to the four giant dragons, saying:
"The "evidence" you need is in this disc. Tyr's memories are all in it. He left this thing to Dragon Aspects, so you are also qualified to open it and view it."
"Then let's see."
Tarecgosa glanced at the other companions, and then reached out to touch Platinum Disc. The next moment, light and shadow were projected out, which was the memory left by Tyr.
The first scene is a quarrel between him and a golden giant.
"Odin, you can't do this! The historical data of the Dark Empire period must be preserved. This can make the lives of this world aware of the threat of the void and warn them not to accept the temptation of the darkness.
Proclaiming the dangers of our enemies does no harm to the order we protect, and the world deserves to know that it was Pantheon who saved them from the apocalypse of the void."
The tall Tyr, wearing a red cloak, shouted, but the next moment he was interrupted by the majestic golden giant with a molten beard opposite:
"Foolish, my brother!
Lower beings do not need to know the horrific past of the Dark Empire, they only need to know the greatness and justice of Pantheon. They only need to know that before our arrival, the world was full of chaos, suffering and disaster.
You are right, Pantheon saved Azeroth!
This is the truth of the One in this world from now on.
We are here to shoulder the mission not only to ensure that Pantheon's great Grand Plan reaches the end, but also to shape a perfect life according to True Titan God's blueprint. But my brother, you know that life is inherently chaotic and weak. They need to be disciplined and guided by order, and must be controlled by us. (Ps1)"
Chief manager Odin's voice was loud and he praised:
"You did a very good job this time. You led those savage lives to defeat the dangerous Galakrond. This is a perfect discipline and guidance! Let those savage Proto-Dragon's hearts turn to the power of order.
Since they trust you, it's up to you to discipline them."
"I"
Tyr wanted to refute, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Then he looked at Odin and asked sternly:
"Then, my brother, the distinguished chief administrator Odin, I must know how the tragedy of Galakrond happened?
Mimiron, the wisest among us, examined the flesh and blood of Galakrond. He told me that it was caused by the pollution corrosion spread by Yogg-Saron. However, Old God was imprisoned in the Titan cage. How could it spread such corrosion?
In addition, our brother Loken, who controls the power of wisdom, has been doing something mysterious recently. He is doing something that he does not want others to know. Do you think there is any connection between these two things?"
"You shouldn't ask this."
Odin waved his hand and said:
"That is the mission of Loken, and it is also the plan of the Lords Pantheon. We must better understand our enemies in order to find ways to restrain them."
"You're lying!"
Tyr scolded:
What is the purpose of "Secret Facility" Uldir? Why don't even I have access to that Titan facility? Tell me, is the corruption of Odin and Galakrond related to the dangerous research conducted in Uldir?
Why use Proto-Dragon as a test subject?
That is the original life from which this world was born!
Didn't you say that we should discipline them and guide them onto the path of order? Why should we treat their leader like this?"
"That's enough, Tyr, I can only tell you that this is all for order."
Odin was obviously irritated.
He scolded Tyr for questioning, and then left angrily. Then a voice came:
"Just follow my orders. If you want to win rewards for your Proto-Dragon friends, then let them Ulduar! We give them the responsibility of guardians and let them become the first Azeroth creatures to be civilized by order.
Dragon Aspects would be a good role model.
Their glory, dignity and power will attract other creatures in this world to support the order of Pantheon, but you must teach them well, Tyr.
I don't trust those beasts!
If they cannot fully embrace the essence of order, then one day their chaotic beast habits will cause uncontrollable trouble."
The first memory was interrupted.
The four giant dragons looked at each other, and even Chromie, Bronze Dragons, who had read the "script", had anger in his eyes.
These things that happened in ancient times have been erased from history by the guardians, and there is no trace even in the time network. If Tyr had not left these memories, no one would know about these things.
"Keep watching!"
Mylune, who has the gentlest personality, clenched his fists and said something hoarse.
Tarecgosa endured his anger and touched the disk again, causing the second memory related to Dragon Aspects to be projected out. This time it was in the hometown of the dragons, at the top of a glorious Titan city.
They saw five Dragon King and Tyr standing together. The five Dragon King had obviously just received the blessing of the power of order.
Their bodies are transforming into the elegant shapes of Dragon Aspects, but the flying dragons higher up in the city still have the posture of Proto-Dragon, which shows that the blessing of order has not yet spread to all Dragon Aspects.
"Your Sacred Spring was eroded by dangerous dark forces before, but don't worry, I have added the divine power of order to Sacred Spring."
Tyr pointed at the water flowing everywhere in the city, and said gently to the five Dragon Kings squatting beside him:
"Drinking the water from "Odorus" Sacred Spring can keep you young and strong, and can also transform your people into the form of order. This is the reward you deserve, my brave and young friends.
Your merits in resisting Galakrond together with me will be remembered by this world."
"But we will call this magnificent city you gave us "Tyr's Hold", our friend."
Dragon Aspects Alexstrasza replied sincerely:
"This is to commemorate your help to us. If you hadn't sacrificed your arm to stop the terrible Galakrond, we would all have died in the madness it caused. Tyr, you are the best guardian, you are the friend of all dragons!"
"Although Odin doesn't trust us, we don't care about his rudeness and indifference to us."
Black Dragon King Neltharion snorted disdainfully, and said in a cold tone:
"We have no friendship with other guardians. It was you who invited us to become guardians, and we embraced order. It's not because we yearn for order, but because you are our best friend.
We trust your recommendation."
These words made the smile on Tyr's face become a little bitter, and then he heard the wise Malygos say doubtfully:
"But why did Galakrond become such a terrifying look?
It was clearly the bravest and most powerful leader of all Proto-Dragon before. It was it that protected the snowfields and territories where we live, and it was also it that led us to resist the attacks of those chaotic elements.
It went crazy in a short period of time. What is this dark force you are talking about?
Why can it contaminate our Sacred Spring?
Didn't you say before that this O'dorus Sacred Spring is a gift from World Heart, and drinking its water can make us the most powerful children in the world."
"That is a very dangerous power, Malygos. You are too weak to fight against it."
Tyr waved his hand and said:
"Don't ask, we will help you suppress the darkness so that it can never hurt you."
"Yes, Tyr is the best, Tyr is trustworthy."
Ysera put his head on Tyr's arm, expressing his closeness in this way, and the silent Bronze Dragon Aspect Nozdormu finally spoke, somewhat puzzled:
"I traveled through time, but why was the era before Titan Keepers blank? What happened at that time? Tyr, is the dark force that polluted Galakrond related to that "blank history"?"
"It was those dark evils that corrupted time with their corruption. You must never go back to that period of history at will, Nozdormu."
Tyr warned:
"When you become stronger, I will share that terrible past with you. My dragon friends, just rest in this city and strengthen your tribe. I am going to set out to patrol the world.
When I come back, I hope your tribe will be prosperous."
After saying that, Tyr picked up his war hammer, and this silver giant wearing a red cloak strode away from the fortress built by him amidst the greetings of the dragons.
His back is majestic but lonely.
This ends the second memory, followed by the third.
But this section is very short.
What I remember is a crazy and terrible war. Two armies belonging to the same Titan Construct were fighting in the snowy mountains outside Ulduar. The Dragon Aspectss were fighting in Tyr came to help when called, and their assistance helped Tyr's party repel those crazy Iron Vrykul and Fire Giants.
After the battle, Nozdormu came alone.
It looked at Tyr, who was fighting bloody battles and stood extremely lonely next to the collapsed body of the Thundercast Giant, and asked:
"Why do the Guardians want a civil war? Tyr, our friends, who is the side of justice? Who represents order?"
"No one can represent order! And "order" and "justice" have different meanings."
Tyr said dumbly:
"Leave, take the brave and loyal dragons with you, and never come back, Nozdormu! Never get involved in anything related to Titan Keepers. You are innocent, and you should not be involved.
I'm going to do something dangerous next.
There is a high probability that I will not survive. If your brothers and sisters ask about me, tell them that I am dead.
Just tell them that Tyr died fighting for the justice in his heart."
"But there's still yours in Tyr's Hold."
"Shh! Keep that secret, Nozdormu, and don't try to resurrect me! I am not as righteous as you think, I am also a sinner, and it was I who harmed you. You should have become the real World Guardian, but we deceived you into taking this wrong path.
I'm guilty.
Sorry, my dragon friends."
Ps1:
This passage comes from the 10.0 plot. The letter written by Odin to Loken was not fabricated by me, so brothers who are dissatisfied should not blame me.
In addition, Odin's distrust of dragons has been made clear in version 7.0.
