Is it for sleeping?
Kael'thas took back Silvermoon City.
Sun King sacrificed the thundercast structures he brought back from Star Soul Temple for this purpose, and an entire Titan Keepers from Ulduar fell on the ground of Sin'dorei. They fulfilled the oath they had borne when they were given wisdom in Forge of Will.
They protect this world and die for it.
Of course, it would be difficult to recapture Silvermoon City, which had already been established by demons for several Fel Forging Camps, with just a small number of Titan Keeperss. Therefore, this wave of Kael'thass actually received support from several forces.
In addition to Sunwell Floating Isle and Arcane Academy who were hanging high in the sky and constantly bombarding the ground, the Venthyr criminals from Shadowlands also contributed in this battle.
Four Covenants of Shadowlands was commanded by Primus. The elites in the alliance were assigned different numbers of Mawsworn to enter Material World. While supporting Azeroth's resistance, Death Faction completed Death Faction's debut in Material World.
But Primus did not give a death order.
A master strategist like him will never micro-manage the front line. His instructions are only given to high-level commanders, and lower-level commanders have a certain degree of freedom.
Therefore, the Venthyr criminals who came to support Silvermoon City came here of their own free will.
As for why it was voluntary.
"Father King!"
Kael'thas jumped off his gorgeous Armored Gryphon and rushed quickly to the blood mage Venthyr who was standing on the edge of the ruins of the palace, looking at Sunwell Floating Isle in the distance.
Kael'thas was very excited. He looked at the gorgeously dressed and gloomy Venthyr in front of him.
Although the latter's face has changed, like other Venthyr, he is slightly thinner and has lost his iconic pointed ears, but the light shining from his blood-colored eyes, his dressing habits and demeanor, especially the way he holds the dark and delicate Rose Absolution Longsword, make Kael'thas certain that the Venthyr in front of him is his deceased father.
His Majesty the previous Sun King, Anasterian.
Kael'thas I never thought that one day I would see my father again. This is really an unexpected surprise.
However, compared to his joy, Anasterian behaved a little coldly.
He looked back at his son, with a faint smile on his face, and said:
"We meet again."
"Father, you."
Kael'thas feels something is wrong.
But Anasterian raised his hand and used his red and black gloved fingers to stop Kael'thas's inquiry.
He explained:
"The time when I was taken to Revendreth was not very clever. When I was still undergoing atonement, I happened to meet Queen Azshara making a big fuss about Revendreth, which caused my atonement to not be completed smoothly. Fortunately, I later met Countess, who is good at dancing.
She allowed me to become her retainer, allowing me to own Sinstone in Revendreth and thus have a new life.
However, child, only sinners will be sent to Revendreth. This is what I wanted to tell you but didn't have time to tell you.
Sunstrider family is the ruler of Quel'Thalas. We should be responsible for all sins on this land. If we fail to fulfill our duties as kings, we will be regarded as derelict in our duties.
Magic Addiction
The inability to cure the Magic Addiction that tortures the people is the most terrible sin of a king. I am a warning to you, son. If you fail to solve this problem when you pass away, you will go to the same place as me.
But."
Anasterian His Majesty looked at his son.
He noticed the sun pattern on Kael'thas's golden robe, and he said with a smile:
"But it seems that my gifted child found the "salvation" that his incompetent father could not find all his life when he came to the throne. Magic Addiction of Quel'dorei will become a history that must be remembered in your hands, even if we pay the price of saying goodbye to the magic of Sunwell.
Come on, tell me.
While you still have some time, tell your father what you have been through during this time and how you plan to act in the future?"
"Father King!"
Kael'thas wiped his tears and stepped forward to stand with his father, who was wearing a Venthyr tuxedo and had perfect manners but had become a "psychic vampire".
He said softly:
"Sun State Religion will bring warmth to people's hearts. Thanks to Holy Flame Ritual shared with us by overseas Arathi Empire, people can draw energy from the alienated light and heat to satisfy Magic Addiction's desire.
In the long run, the people can replace their thirst for magic with the faith of the state religion. More importantly, the faith will strengthen their already fragile will and soul.
I also sent Ms. Sylvanas to Suramar to participate in the battle to save Queen Azshara. So far, everything is going well.
The queen holds the knowledge to cultivate Arcandor Tree. After this Demonic Calamity is over, I will personally go to Dazar'alor to see the queen and obtain the inheritance of Arcan'dor from her.
With such a two-pronged approach, I am sure that Magic Addiction of Sin'dorei will be completely eradicated within a thousand years. When I step down from the throne of Sun King, I will definitely be able to see with my own eyes that our people are back on the right track of evolution.
From now on, all the sins of Sunstrider family can be paid off! You, your grandfather, and the rest of the family can no longer bear the burden of the past."
"Sin'dorei is such a murderous name, it fits your enterprising mind very well."
Anasterian did not interrupt Kael'thas's description, nor did he have any opinions on this plan. He made it very clear that since he is already dead, he should not interfere with the operation of the kingdom of the living.
After going through Revendreth's atonement ceremony, he has become very indifferent to all the regrets and memories he had when he was still alive.
After meeting Kael'thas today, he said goodbye to the past completely and fully embraced his new life in Revendreth.
However, it is impossible to say that I am not worried at all. After all, this is my the One child.
Therefore, Anasterian said softly:
"If you want to engage in Sun State Religion, you must be connected with the Holy Light belief. If you become a believer, it means that your future belonging will be in High Heaven. This is not a bad thing."
"No, father, I talked to Diakum the Saint."
Kael'thas explained:
"That "Lord of Dawn" told me that faith and truth are not in conflict. He even encouraged me to continue walking on the path of Arcane Mage and explore the ultimate truth of Fire Magic. I once wanted to give up my pursuit and use my devotion to faith as a sacrifice to save the people, but what should I say?
I was lucky enough to meet a god worth following.
Tell me about you too.
From what you said just now, you experienced a lot during your time at Shadowlands?"
"Yeah."
Anasterian sighed and said:
"I have only been here for a long time, and I have experienced a coup that abolished the true god of death. On that day when Castle Nathria was besieged, I stood next to Countess like a slave, shaking like chaff. But even like that, I saw with my own eyes the changes promoted by Diakum the Saint in Land of the Dead.
freedom
My child, Lord of Dawn not only gave you the freedom to pursue the truth, He also gave me and the other dead people the freedom to escape destiny.
What an honor."
"To be honest, I'm not surprised by this, even though I don't know what "manifest destiny" specifically refers to."
Kael'thas smiled and said:
"But to be regarded as an enemy by a righteous man like Vigilant is definitely not a good thing, so Sunstrider family owes him a heavy debt of gratitude.
I heard that Expedition of Flame has begun, so, father, I will personally participate in the punishment of Sea of Darkness.
I hope I can participate in the great cause of lighting up the sun and live up to our surname "Sunstrider".
Oh, right."
Sun King hesitated for a moment and whispered to his father:
"That. After you left, when I followed Diakum the Saint and walked Path of the Sun, I accidentally found the source of the family's inheritance. I mean, I saw our true ancestors in the illusion of the sun."
"Really?"
Anasterian was immediately interested, but did not notice the strange expression on his son's face.
After the answer to the mystery was revealed, Venthyr, who had gone through the atonement ceremony and gained the peace of mind of the deceased, thought that he could face all the troubles with a smile, and broke out uncontrollably on the spot.
He roared:
"Shut up! How can you assume that the ancestor of Sunstrider is Trolls? This is impossible! This is blasphemy!"
"Uh, Father King, Azeroth no longer have Trolls. Queen Azshara has a golden saying, saying that Trolls is also a branch of elves. Therefore, our ancestors are actually "dark elves"."
"No! I don't admit it! Even if I am dead, even if I have become Venthyr, I will still shout out my opinion with my sinful voice. I don't admit it, do you hear it?
Kael'thas, I don't allow you to admit it either!
We are not Trolls!
This is Azshara's trick, this is blasphemy!"
Azeroth in this world line was "visited" by Diakum, a guy who was happy to hammer his fate. As a result, many damn people did not die. Naturally, there were not so many dead people who acted as "old acquaintances" in Shadowlands.
Therefore, after Veil of Life and Death was shattered, and when the army of death poured into Azeroth, there were very few "father and son meeting" scenes such as the Blackhand family and Kael'thas. Although there were also those unlucky ghosts who died unfortunately and came back in glory in the form of "Death King", but because the demons have not been completely eliminated yet, there are not so many happy things happening.
But when this difficult day finally entered midnight, those Warriors who had not rested for a long time finally got a rare leisure. After the Mawsworns of Land of the Dead took over the important task of exorcising demons, the world that had not experienced peace in the past three months finally had the leisure to sleep.
But for those who have "an appointment in their dreams", this night is destined to represent reunion and warmth.
For example Twins Archbishop.
The two dragged their tired bodies back to Exodar's cabin. After taking a shower, the two sisters sat in the room. They each held a scroll of Path of Light and Shadow's scriptures and chanted softly after making eye contact.
She fell asleep quietly after being exhausted. Saloras didn't know when she entered the dreamland. At a certain moment, her consciousness quietly "awakened", and when she opened her eyes, she saw a land full of light.
Surrounded by beating veins of light, only a Eredar style door stands in front.
Saloras took a deep breath. She stepped forward and opened the door with expectation and joy, and went up the stairs. When she came to the ground, she saw the world illuminated by the sun.
The endless green grass and the Fossil Jungle in the distance represent the location here.
Krokuun Great Plains!
In other words, it is Krokuun Great Plains in the memory of Diakum.
Right in front of Saloras, Diakum was leaning on the stone edge of the grassland, and the wild woman Neri was curled up in Vigilant's arms, holding Eredar's traditional musical instrument in her hand. The gadget like a flute played a melody from more than 20,000 years ago.
As a refreshing breeze blew here, the entire grassland seemed to come alive.
It looks like waves surging on the sea of grass.
Tranquil, peaceful, and long, it seems to be in two completely different dimensions from the demon war that is still going on outside.
Saloras didn't alert the two guys, just took off her shoes and quietly walked forward, leaned against the stone and let Commander Diakum's hand hold her, letting her long hair and head rest on her lover's shoulder amidst the melodious sound of the flute.
She said softly:
"So, is this all we can do if we want to meet each other in the future? We spend a night in a dream, and when we open our eyes the next morning, we are filled with the loss after waking up from the dream."
"You will be disappointed because the dream is false."
Dick leaned down and kissed Saloras on the forehead and said:
"But I'm real!
You know, the dreams of gods are always strange in one way or another. I am not a god in the realm of life, so I cannot weave an absolutely real dream for the three of you, but fortunately there is warmth in the sun.
What's more, we don't have to meet in dreams.
As long as you are still walking in the light, when that ray of sunshine shines on your cheek, it means that I want to kiss you."
"Eh~ It's so gross."
Oreses also appeared here at some point. The younger sister squeezed into Diakum's arms from the other side even more enthusiastically, disturbing the imaginary world between the two of Neri. The archbishop glared at this coquettish woman and wished he could have a fight with her on the spot to see who was qualified to enjoy Vigilant's arms.
But in the next second, Neri's tail that was thrown up in excitement was pulled by Dick, causing the archbishop to fall on Vigilant. Fortunately, Diakum's shoulders were wide enough to accommodate the sharing of the three old girls.
The four of them talked, Diakum shared his journey in Shadowlands with his lovers, and talked about the battle of wits and courage between him and Eternal Ones.
As the three most trusted people by Dick, they heard about what happened to Zereth Mortis from Vigilant, which made Neri exclaimed:
"So, Ms. Elune was actually designed by First Ones?"
"Well, to be precise, it's Mu'sha."
Diakum explained:
"Although both sides use the same power, Mu'sha and Elune are moonlights from two periods and cannot be confused.
The gods we know, those who have perished in history, are basically designed by the Firstborn, and star souls, such as Lord Argus and Karesh the Heartless, are also cultivated by the Firstborn.
Of course, Azeroth and Supreme Star Soul are unique. She carries First Ones's blessings or punishments for Material World. It all depends on how the life under this sea of stars will treat the power that has not yet awakened.
We exist in the system designed by First Ones, but they seem to have delegated the power of choice to all living beings."
"But that's not right!"
Saloras frowned and said:
"If the six major forces have their own Zereth Holy Land, then you should be able to find Light Zereth when you find High Heaven. Why is there only a wilderness after you enter High Heaven?"
"I don't know, but I guess it has something to do with An'she."
Vigilant said softly:
"Just like I guessed that the place where An'she fell in Sea of Darkness should be among the ruins of Void Zereth. He didn't just choose a direction and fall into Sea of Darkness. An'she crashed into the void Zarei!
The reason why Mu'sha became Elune is probably related to the survival of Zereth Holy Land in the life field.
The place of creation left by First Ones is indeed troublesome, but it is actually not as troublesome as we imagined."
"This is something you gods should worry about."
Neri snorted and said:
"We mortals only need to think about how to expel the demons. But then again, now that Ms. Eonar has returned to Azeroth, the next step is to dismantle Everything Unification Field and send it back to the planet Argus, right?"
"Hmm."
Diakum yawned, closed his eyes tiredly, and said:
"That's true, but while you are busy with this matter, I still have to complete the expedition to Sea of Darkness. The matter of An'she cannot be delayed any longer."
Seeing that Neri wanted to ask, Saloras stretched out his hand to stop her, and also made a gesture to silence his sister.
The three of them looked at Diakum, who leaned on the stone and quickly fell asleep. Although it was difficult to understand how the gods fell asleep in their dreams, this did not prevent the three of them from feeling Diakum's fatigue at this time.
This man probably hasn't had a good rest for a long time.
"Let him sleep."
Saloras leaned on Diakum's shoulder and said softly:
"He will feel at ease when we are here, and we will feel at ease when he is by his side."
"Huh, I thought something was going to happen."
Neri climbed down with his tail swung and lay beside Diakum's ear like a cat. The archbishop whispered in the gentlest voice:
"Well, good night, Lord of Dawn."
After saying that, she maintained her prone sleeping position, hugged Dick's neck, rubbed it and then changed to a more comfortable position. After a while, the snoring of the four people echoed in this place of memory, and only the wind that kept blowing through the grass swept away everyone's fatigue.
Although nothing exciting happened, the reunion was the most important thing.
Go to sleep.
Set off again at the next dawn.
