27. Azshara's Confusion: Should the People Follow Their Sovereign, or Should the Sovereign Respond to the People?
Is the monarch supposed to respond to the people?
Nightwell There was dead silence in the hall.
Only the echoes of the hoarse roar of the old Trolls, who had no regard for life and death, remained here. The cheers and applause of Trolls's whistle of death turned into gusts of sinister wind. Diakum, who was invited to watch, maintained his dignity at this time and even prevented Liadrin from stepping forward to scold Trolls for their crazy fantasies.
Just watch the show obediently, and don't disturb the queen's arbitrariness!
This seems to represent Diakum's views and opinions on this matter.
Azshara also made no sound.
But from the queen's expression, we can see the turmoil in her heart at this time.
Trolls are not really making excuses. They have received gifts from Azerite Crystal and are indeed about to embark on the evolution of life forms. With the elves' lessons learned, they cannot allow themselves to follow the old path of the "Magic Addiction race".
This means that Trolls will cross the river on the elves.
They will really become more outstanding and outstanding "elves" in the future, and those mysterious Haranir forms are the perfect templates chosen by Trollss for themselves.
They will become the "avatar" of Azeroth.
Who dares to say that Haranir is not an elf?
They are an intermediate form that perfectly combines Trolls's powerful Life Force with the energy affinity of elves. They have been guarding the holy tree in the hidden city under Un'Goro Crater for a long time. They are the first batch of "World Guardian" in the true sense.
Once the Trollss begin to evolve in that direction, it is really only a matter of time before the current Magic Addiction elves are eliminated by the cruel nature.
Sun King Kael'thas clearly realized this, so he would form Sun State Religion at all costs, in order to retain the power of the Sin'dorei elves to exist in nature's survival of the fittest before the Trollss completed their evolution.
Although Kaldorei elves are not as good as Magic Addiction, they are indeed much worse than Haranir in terms of energy affinity.
What's even more terrible is that the 10,000-year-old Eternal Life has caused serious transformation and impact on the Night Elf social system. Night Elf is still unable to accept the life after Eternal Life was taken away. It will take them a long time to adapt to their new life.
Moreover, Night Elf inherited the "difficulty in breeding" problem common among elves, and they are far from "perfect".
Trolls does not have such a problem.
Trolls are as exaggerated as humans when it comes to giving birth to children, and Trolls, like humans, are outrageous creatures that "are in heat at all ages and around the clock." If they can retain this advantage during evolution, then even if World Mother prefers elves, sooner or later they will have to accept the fate that elves will eventually perish in history.
Reproduce.
Is it really necessary for a race that cannot even meet its basic needs for reproduction and expansion to continue to exist?
This is a common problem among all immortal species.
At this time, Sarkir who is far away from Shadowlands must cut off Eredar's perfect Eternal Life. This is also based on this demand. The reproduction of Eredar is much more difficult than that of elves.
"Continue."
In silence, Azshara rubbed his eyebrows and said hoarsely:
"I must be crazy but go ahead and let me hear your crazy thoughts."
"Your Majesty!"
Vashj hugged Azshara's hand, and she said loudly with tears in her eyes:
"No, don't listen to the instigation of these Trollss! You are the leader of the elves, how can you lead those barbaric guys? We will follow you to rebuild the empire, and we still have many people!
Azsuna and a lot of Highborne, we're okay."
"Come on, her empire has perished a long time ago, and you old people and children should have woken up from your dreams long ago."
With a cold scolding, Nightsworn Tyrande holding Moonnight Blades walked out of the darkness, and the black moon and starlight battle lines on her face were gradually dissipating.
Tyrande looked at Azshara with an unfriendly look, but still put Moonnight Blades away and carried it behind him.
She stood twenty steps away and said loudly:
"In today's era, neither Kaldorei nor Sin'dorei can abandon our country and heritage and return to the empire just because of Azshara's order. If you insist on conquering, then we will resist with all our strength!
Even if there is another elven civil war!
The problem is, Azshara, you keep saying that you have realized your mistake, but you still want to start a war just for the sake of rebuilding the empire under the watchful eyes of World Mother?
At this moment when the world is invaded by demons and everything is in danger, do you want to put your own selfish desires and the justice of this world together and make an extremely arrogant choice?"
"Uh-huh, my supreme queen, don't listen to their nonsense!"
The bad seed Bwonsamdi turned into a swirling wind. It knelt down to Azshara in an exaggerated manner, and "advised" and said:
"Your empire has always existed. Under the dark sea, in the lightless abyss, the former Highborne was distorted into the ugly Naga, but they maintained a huge empire in the deep sea very confidently.
That's where you should go.
Yes, listen to old Bwonsamdi's advice.
I am sure that as long as you send an edict, those soft-skinned snakes who have lost their evil gods and are in confusion are really willing to return to your command and personally dedicate their Deep Sea Empire to you.
She is indeed a perfect queen!
You have just woken up after sleeping for ten thousand years, and there are two empires waiting for your inheritance. Oh my, I am so beautiful for you!
Look at the dissatisfied look on your face.
What?
You just said personally that all elves are your children and subjects, so Naga, who is not beautiful enough, was expelled from the elf family tree by you?"
Bwonsamdi said in a long voice:
"Oh, now the born "Queen of the Deep Sea" Mrs. Vashj is going to cry to death. Look at her perfect Naga form. She is also going to be expelled from her "human status" by you. How sad.
You are right, little Talanji."
Bwonsamdi turned her head 180 degrees and winked at Princess Talanji. Princess Trolls was stunned for a moment, and then her mind spun rapidly. She immediately understood the "hint" of the bad guy Bwonsamdi.
After thinking for a moment, she immediately stepped forward and said:
"If you are willing to board Golden Throne of Dazar'alor, Zandalar Empire can also complete the fusion with the Deep Sea Empire of Naga under your command!
Bwonsamdi is right!
You are the leader of all Trolls. Naga is just the second variant of Dark Troll. They are also one of us.
Not just Naga, but also Void Elf, San'layn and Fel Elves!
As long as you give an order, they can all become official citizens of the Zandalar Empire. Yes, as long as you give an order, your subjects can return to you from the deep sea, from Sea of Darkness, from Land of the Dead, and from Twisting Nether!
Your empire will stand tall again on Azeroth and even on top of the sea of stars in an instant.
What was the empire of 10,000 years ago?
Ten thousand years later, you who have returned from history will rule the entire sea and land. You will become the unquestionable "King of the World"! You will"
"Stop talking!"
Azshara suddenly broke out.
She scolded, and her strong emotional fluctuations resonated with Nightwell, causing the terrifying Arcane Energy to break away from the shackles of the magic well at this moment. Azshara's anger turned into a tide of energy dotted with starlight, roaring and crashing down to the platform.
It seems that he wants to get rid of these bastards that make her angry.
But the next second, the surging magic tide was slapped back by Azshara.
"What's the matter with you! Go back and stay quiet!"
Under her scolding, the magical tide that had been furious and out of control just now was casually dispersed, and it returned to the restraints of Magic Well very well.
This scene made other people look stupid, Bwonsamdi was also shocked.
Damn it!
Sister, you are so awesome, this thing is Arcane Energy derived from Aman'Thul's Eye.
It independently supplies the magic power of Suramar without diminishing for ten thousand years, but its energy level is limited to those of Well of Eternity. As a result, you are as obedient as Sun Tzu? So, is this the world of the strong?
"You all get out! Diakum stay."
Azshara sat back on Imperial Carriage, her annoyance visible to the naked eye, she waved and said something.
Vashj was very worried about his queen, but still chose to obey and dragged the two prisoners and other maids away from here.
Under Tyrande's indifferent gaze, Trolls turned and left together with Bwonsamdi. When passing by Diakum, Dark Prophet bowed. There was a silent conversation but the meaning was obvious.
It hopes that Vigilant can persuade on this matter. Azshara's leadership of the Zandalar Empire is really good for everyone in this world.
Tyrande was the last to leave.
Nightsworn said softly:
"I want to thank you for the last seal you imposed on me ten thousand years ago, Azshara, but I will never regret destroying your empire with my own hands. It was not a personal grudge. If you let you continue to make trouble like that, there would be no way to survive in this world.
World Mother thinks you still have the possibility of salvation. Although I doubt this, I will follow World Mother's will.
I just hope you don't make the same mistake again.
Finally, what I just said is true. You cannot rebuild Elven Empire in this era! I will not agree, nor will Kael'thas, or even Blue Moon Dean and Sandar will not agree.
The moment you fell asleep, the empire was gone.
Please accept this reality and cheer up, the world needs you, it needs you more than ever."
Nightsworn bowed to Queen Azshara, thanked her for the rescue ten thousand years ago, then gathered the moonlight and left here, leaving only the incarnation of Diakum and Queen Azshara in the hall.
Dick did not speak.
He kept silent and stepped forward, using Holy Light as a chain to surround and seal Frostmourne.
This Demon Sword will be of great use in the future.
"You are my Court Advisor, shouldn't you give me some advice at this time?"
Azshara said in a bad tone:
"You also want me to sit on Dazar'alor's Golden Throne and let me abandon all dignity and call myself the Trolls queen, right? You Holy Light conspirator who likes to have fun!"
"I can understand that you are in a bad mood, but don't just throw your heat on others."
Diakum turned around and said:
"I have never expressed my position on this matter. Zul and Golden King have sought my opinion, but you know my style of doing things. I don't want to interfere in your internal affairs. After all, I am just a passing Warrior of Light."
"You fart!"
This is probably the first time Azshara has scolded him so rudely.
She was really angry, her body was shaking now, and she said:
"If you don't plan to express your stance, why did you give Vashj such a hidden form! Why did you make her look like Naga? Doesn't this imply that I accept reality? You also think that if I want to rebuild the empire, I can only unite with Naga, right?
You also think that only by turning myself into a monster can I return to the stage of this world again, right?"
"You are thinking too much."
Dick turned around, sighed, and said seriously:
"I gave Ms. Vashj that shape just because she is very suitable for that kind of combat posture. She just looks like Naga, but in fact she is another creature. And if you insist on asking me to give you a suggestion, then I can only tell you that you should really wake up from the dream of rebuilding the empire.
Are they wrong in their accusations against you?
It was you who ruined your empire. You also said that you had realized your mistake, but the way you looked so angry did not seem like you were humble enough to accept that you had made a big mistake.
Trolls will become more outstanding elves, and they will proudly open the curtain of elven civilization in the new era.
This is a reward given by Supreme Star Soul. If you can't stop it, neither can I.
In fact, I have never understood it. You have obviously gone through the entire process of evolution from Dark Troll to an elf, so why did you start such a cruel fight and confrontation with Trolls after the establishment of the empire?
Just because you are proud of being an elf, do you eagerly hope to exterminate the Trollss in order to cover up your original unseemly origins?
Look!
The empire you built with your own hands has fundamental problems.
If it's destroyed, it's destroyed. I don't think it's a regret.
After all, you can kill Trolls just to cover up the truth, then even if the empire continues to this day, you will use other reasons to kill humans, dwarves and gnomes."
Azshara was so angry that his whole body was shaking, but he still couldn't refute.
Demon Sword, who sensed the queen's anger, roared back from the outside, but when he saw Diakum confronting the queen, Remornia also gave up.
She didn't dare to pounce on him, even if it was just a Power Incarnation.
"You are a monarch and you should always stay with your subjects. Therefore, you should not ask me this question in the first place."
Dick has no intention of quarreling with Azshara.
The time limit for this Power Incarnation is coming soon, so he suggested:
"If you have trouble making a choice, why don't you go see your people? Suramar City's Nightborne are your most loyal subjects, and their loyalty to you has lasted for ten thousand years. Such loyalty should be rewarded, right?
Go ahead.
Go among your people and I think you will get the answer."
He made a "goodbye" gesture and took the initiative to withdraw from his consciousness, allowing this unique incarnation to disappear in the light and return to the posture of the broken-arm crystal holy object.
Azshara Take deep breaths in this dead place to calm yourself down.
She called World Mother, wanting to get some advice from her, but World Mother was very silent at this moment, just looking at her with warm eyes.
This means that no matter what decision she makes, World Mother will not interfere.
However, will I let Supreme Star Soul down again?
As Zul said, do you want to evade your inherent responsibilities again?
World Mother worked so hard to "pin" her out, was it really just to let her lead the elves?
Azshara feels like he is in confusion.
She remembered what Diakum said, and decided to leave here first to see her own people.
The exquisite Teleportation Spell enveloped her and sent Azshara to the coast of Suramar. She wanted to make a little disguise here to avoid causing chaos among the people. However, as soon as she landed, the queen saw a little girl jumping up from the coast while crying.
"?"
Azshara flashed past, and when it came back again, there was already a Nightborne child like a clay monkey in his hand.
"Ah!"
The little guy was startled. She saw Queen Azshara's face. For a moment, she didn't recognize who this extremely beautiful elder sister was, but the next second, she screamed and covered her face.
"Don't look! Don't look, please."
Azshara sighed, she had already seen it.
Under the influence of Magic Plague, this child turned into little Trolls. Although his body was not rickety, he already had fangs at the corners of his mouth and his face became rough.
But as Zul said, Magic Plague, which was based on Life Force, degenerated her and took away her Magic Addiction, turning her into a weak but healthy little black-skinned Trolls.
"Why do you do this?"
Azshara asked:
"Don't you want to live anymore at a young age?"
"They all say I'm a monster."
The little girl cried and wiped her tears and said:
"They said Trolls should be beaten to death. My former friends stopped playing with me, and my parents abandoned me. I. I don't want to live like a monster. I have known since I was a child that elves are noble beings, and Trolls is a savage.
I don't know why I became like this. Many people have become like this, and many people have jumped from here.
They say the sea takes away shame."
"No, seawater can't take away shame. I tried."
Azshara sighed and said:
"Ten thousand years ago, I was also immersed in the cold sea water, but it couldn't take anything away. Let me see you, little girl, don't be shy, I'm not afraid of your jokes."
The Queen hesitated for a moment and said softly:
"I used to have little fangs like you."
"Ah? Really? Beautiful big sister, you are the most beautiful elf I have ever seen. Do you also have fangs? This thing is so inconvenient."
"No, fangs are actually very handy, especially when chewing bones."
Azshara touched the little girl's cheek and examined her body to determine the influence of Magic Plague on her. Seeing that the little girl was still a little discouraged, the queen said casually as if she was joking:
"Trolls's large feet are also very flexible, allowing you to walk quickly when walking through the forest. Trolls's eyes are very good, and its natural dynamic vision can allow you to avoid fatal attacks.
Elf
Elves are not noble and perfect, and Trolls is not naturally savage.
That's just a lie."
