Caer Darrow

Well! The mind of young Jaina is truly difficult to fathom. We had clearly agreed to tour Mardenholde Keep. We have only just seen the prayer room, the armory, and the training grounds, and haven't even climbed the keep's towers to admire the scenery of Hearthglen, yet she is already thinking about hunting bears? Why is she so obsessed with hunting bears?

Although Taelan Fordring has lived for over thirty years across two lifetimes, he truly does not understand women. They are sometimes gentle and lovely, and other times moody and capricious. It is not strange for them to have sudden whims. Even though Jaina is still young, that does not stop her from having bizarre ideas.

Helpless, Taelan Fordring could only say, "Then you must at least change your clothes and bring your gear, right? Bears are very dangerous." In truth, having mastered his new skills, Taelan Fordring is no longer afraid of gentlemen or beasts like bears. The only things that are dangerous are those awakened magical creatures and those unknown risks.

Of course, going to raid the nearby low-level Gnoll camps would also be nice. It has a very strong feeling of playing Warcraft 3 back in the day. It is a pity that Taelan cannot summon Water Elementals. But Jaina happens to be—unable to as well!

Suddenly interested, Taelan Fordring said to Jaina with a mischievous glint in his eye: "Jaina! Let's go on an adventure to the Gnoll camp! You be the Archmage, and I will be the Paladin. Let Paris be the footman, how about that?"

Paris is a new friend Taelan Fordring made in Mardenholde! Last time, he stood up for Paris's sister and gave Barthilas's nephew a sound thrashing! Paris is the son of a cobbler! Ever since that incident, they became friends! To be precise, Paris and Helen became Taelan's followers! They often go on adventures around Hearthglen together! And conquering low-level Gnoll camps is exactly their daily routine. There, Taelan gained quite a bit of experience points and practical combat experience.

Of course, it was also because he was shot in the butt with an arrow that he was lectured by Karandra and mocked by Tirion: The Light of the Holy Light who took an arrow to the butt!

Taelan already knows how this nickname came about! It was when his Occultism mentor Krasus was talking to Antonidas that he casually gave it to him. It was probably to increase his fame so that he could be recommended for special operations in the future, or perhaps some Archmage's apprentice leaked the news.

In this game, Taelan Fordring acts as the hero, leading his soldiers. There are usually only three people! Paris is the adjutant and captain of the guard! Helen is the Priest, helping to collect the trash left behind by the Gnolls! Alton acts as the cavalry!

Jaina found it interesting and nodded quickly: "Good! We won't go hunting bears today! We are going to wipe out the Gnolls!"

A loud voice suddenly came from behind the two: "You two little ones, are you thinking of hunting bears at such a young age?"

Jaina's role-playing ended before it even began! The two dignified fathers clearly did not want the children to challenge the dangerous Lordaeron Brown Bear.

After resting for the night, the group ate breakfast early the next day and embarked on the journey to Caer Darrow.

Caer Darrow is located to the east of Hearthglen, on an island in the middle of a lake. They set off from Hearthglen, passed through the scenic Lumber Mill, walked along the main road to the famous Andorhal, and arrived at Caer Darrow. Along the way, Jaina cheered and shouted happily, completely losing the reserve of a noble lady. I don't know why, but she and Karandra get along very well! They are both people who love to travel! And Taelan consciously acted as a tour guide, explaining the sights along the way to Jaina.

Finally, he told Jaina about the tragic Barov family. The Barov family was originally a great noble house of the Kingdom of Alterac. Their family's territory included four domains: Tarren Mill, Southshore, Brill, and Caer Darrow. This family was famous for being wealthy and powerful! But during the Second War, King Aiden Perenolde of the Kingdom of Alterac, fearing the Alliance would lose, surrendered to the Horde. This allowed Warchief Orgrim Doomhammer to pass through Alterac quickly and safely to attack Lordaeron. He almost succeeded—had it not been for Gul'dan's counterproductive interference.

The betrayed Alliance put the King of Alterac on trial and carved up the country. Now, the Kingdom of Alterac has become a paradise for Ogres, Frostwolf Clan Orcs, Alterac restorationists, and all sorts of bandits and outlaws! The Barov family had always been viewed with suspicion by the Perenolde family. This time, they stood firmly on the side of the Alliance.

After the war, the Barov family pleased neither side. The nobles of Alterac believed they had betrayed the king and destroyed the country. But King Terenas of Lordaeron was a seasoned politician. He saw an opportunity for Lordaeron in this! As a result, they carved up the vast majority of the Barov family's territory, leaving them only the lands of Caer Darrow County! Now they are trapped on the island of Caer Darrow, and their situation is worrying!

Jaina looked at the eloquent Taelan with admiring eyes. Katherine, meanwhile, looked at the young Taelan with an appreciative attitude. He is so much like her late son! They both have natural political insight, love to read, and are full of affinity. Moreover, they both possess powerful strength! When others need them, they will bravely stand up! And they are both handsome young men.

Taelan has golden hair, which he ties behind his back. Drake also had a head of dazzling golden hair! Looking at this child, Katherine felt the warm power of the Holy Light that he radiated at all times. She couldn't help but think: "If Drake were alive, he should be married and have children by now!"

She suddenly spoke up to warn him: "You must never say this in Lordaeron City or in front of people you are not familiar with! As far as I know, the Barov family has been working hard, desperately trying to keep their heritage! King Terenas does not like to hear news about the Barovs."

...Taelan was silent for a moment, then thanked her earnestly.

The group traveled through the woodlands of Lordaeron amidst laughter and joy. They saw the wheat waves of Glen Farm and admired the prosperous, bustling Andorhal. That afternoon, they finally arrived at the beautiful Caer Darrow!

Just as they reached the bridge, a well-dressed servant hurried over: "Greetings! Honorable Admiral Daelin Proudmoore. Greetings! Sir Tirion Fordring!"

He then greeted the two ladies in turn, and finally, he paid special tribute to Taelan Fordring and Jaina. It seems the Barov family is indeed a great noble house with a deep foundation. They have already begun to pay attention to the second generation of the Alliance.

Then he said: "My master, Count Alex Barov, and Lady Illucia Barov, along with Vildred Barov and Miss Jandice Barov, are already waiting by the bridge to welcome the distinguished guests!"

Finally, he introduced himself: "My name is Lussen Sarkhoff, and I am the butler for the head of the Barov family, Alex Barov."

Hearing him call himself Lussen Sarkhoff, Taelan immediately thought of Scholomance and those two people who were tortured to death by the Butcher.

The choice of people to receive Tirion Fordring and the Daelin family is truly meticulous!

Guided by Lussen, the group crossed the bridge and stepped onto the island of Caer Darrow! Which is Scholomance in World of Warcraft!

Standing in front of the gate of Caer Darrow Castle was a tall man. Apart from the temples whitened by time and ruthless fate, he looked quite young and strong. Beside him was a beautiful lady, and behind them followed a young man and a very beautiful girl. Looking at these people, Taelan felt as if time and space had been scrambled:
