The Way of the Shaman
Just as the trolls and orcs were building a new home with their own hands in the Arathi Highlands, Sanla also began to study with Drek'Thar, asking him for advice and learning the orcs' shamanic ways and shamanic techniques.🐊👑 υ ♣♡
The full name of Shaman is Shaman, which is similar to the Witch Doctor priest Trolls who believes in Loa, but Shaman believe that all things are animistic, that is, all objects have souls. They ask Elemental Spirits for help, but they do not consider themselves believers in the elements because they believe that they and the elements are one of all spirits.
In Azeroth, Orcs is not the only one who believes in the Shaman way. Trolls's voodoo Loa has a certain Shaman style, The cultures of Dwarves, Tauren, and Pandaren all have the Shaman style of nature worship and ancestor worship, but the Shaman technologies of these races cannot be compared with Orcs.
Just like Trolls's voodoo, Orcs is based on animism and has developed a unique Shaman culture and Shaman magic. They communicate with the earth, air, fire and water, absorb the original power, and use it to increase radiation to heal allies or attack and damage enemies.
Drek'Thar explained the Shaman way to Zul'ra in detail, as well as the relationship between humans and all spirits. Seeing that he did not have any impatience and often expressed his opinions, he nodded secretly in his heart and began to formally teach him the Shaman technique.
In the past Orcs Horde, young Orcs would receive a Om'riggor Ceremony when they reached adulthood. They would walk to the holy mountain Oshu'gun to worship their ancestors there, and whether they could see the souls of their ancestors in that holy mountain represented their qualifications to become Shaman.
Some Orcs can feel where the soul is, but cannot see it, and some Orcs can see it, but they cannot communicate with the soul. Only a Orcs who can see and communicate with the soul of their ancestors can become a Shaman.
Now in the world of Azeroth, there is no Oshu'gun to worship, and as a Trolls, Zul'ra has no way to worship Orcs's ancestors. As for the soul of Trolls's ancestors, the whereabouts are unknown, but fortunately Drek'Thar is not prepared to teach him step by step.
Orcs's Shaman culture once collapsed, in the Shadowmoon Clan's big Shaman Under the auspices of Ner'zhul, all Orcs united together, and Ner'zhul declared that Draenei, who had been neighboring for generations, would be enemies of Orcs. Therefore, the Orcs launched an attack on Draenei, captured their city, and massacred their civilians, old children, women, and children.
After attacking Draenei, for unknown reasons, all Orcs lost contact with the elements and all spirits. The great Shaman Ner'zhul also became silent because of this. In this case, his student Gul'dan stood up and asked all Orcs Shaman demonstrated a kind of Fel magic and declared that the soul does not exist.
Because they lost their connection with the elements and souls, Orcs Shaman were left without a master. They either actively or passively accepted the theory of soul voidness, and turned to the research of Warlock magic. Drek'Thar was one of them.
Later, Gul'dan asked each clan to receive stronger power, which was also the blood of a demon. This made Drek'Thar truly realize what he had done, and he regretted it and made a tearful report to his chief Durotan.
At that time, Dark Portal opened the door. After hearing Drek'Thar's report, Durotan, the chief of the Frostwolf Clan, publicly expressed his disapproval of Warchief. Blackhand questioned, and Frostwolf Clan was prohibited from accepting Demon Blood, so the entire Frostwolf Clan was exiled to Alterac Valley.
In Alterac Valley, Durotan did not worry about the entire race. He took his wife and newborn Thrall to find his friend, Warchief Blackhand's adjutant Orgrim·Doomhammer reported, but he was killed by Gul'dan's assassin on his way back, and Thrall was picked up by Blackmoore.
Frostwolf Clan was extremely panicked after losing his chief. Out of guilt, Drek'Thar stepped forward to serve as the chief of the Frostwolf Clan, leading his people to survive in the cold and windy valley, and thinking about Shaman culture, he redefined his soul.
Drek'Thar divides the human soul into three parts, namely life, thinking and feeling. These three are both independent and integrated. The soul of life is the foundation and provides the body with mobility. The soul of feeling gives people emotional perception and allows them to capture things invisible to the naked eye. The soul of thinking controls the ability to think and allows people to communicate with all spirits.
If you want to become a Shaman, you must exercise the three souls of life, thinking and feeling, and exercising these three souls is beyond the technical scope of Shaman, but Drek'Thar has learned Warlock magic and knows Fel spells.
The Fel used by Warlock is an extremely strange energy, extremely violent. The source of this energy is similar to that of voodoo energy, which is extracted from nature. However, voodoo energy is made from potions to provide energy, while Fel extracts energy through vitality. Therefore, Warlock has a very unique research on the vitality of the human body.
The soul of life is the core foundation of the soul. Drek'Thar believes that as long as the soul of life becomes stronger, the soul of perception and the soul of thinking will also become stronger. You must know that Orcs can become Shaman. They are not good at fighting, but none of them are weaklings. Even those Warlocks, although they look like they can be blown down by a gust of wind, when Fels surge up, they all become as strong as cattle, but they never fight in close combat.
Drek'Thar made a series of theories based on the magic of Warlock, but when it came time to put it into practice, he was unwilling to use Warlock's magic to destroy lives and squeeze out Fel, choose to exercise to maintain and enhance vitality, but Alterac Valley lives in a cold and miserable environment, and Frostwolf Orcs has trouble eating, so how can he have the ability to maintain his life.
Although life was very hard, Drek'Thar gritted his teeth and chose Palkar, a young Orcs boy who had lost his parents, to train with him. However, that little guy was not talented enough and had not completed the preparations for the trial for several years. This made him lose confidence until Thrall found him from outside Alterac Valley.
Thrall is very talented. Although he was raised by Blackmoore as a slave, he has always been well fed and well educated, so he successfully entered the trial within a month after receiving training from Drek'Thar.
During the trial, Drek'Thar cast an illusion test on Thrall, and Thrall also remained unmoved in the illusion, and finally succeeded in merging his three souls of life, thinking and feeling into one, and his soul separated from the body and roamed freely in nature.
After passing the trial, Thrall established contact with the earth, water, air, fire, and the wild spirits in the Alterac Valley forest at an extremely fast speed, and established friendship. This allowed Drek'Thar to regain confidence, and also established contact with a king of ice and snow in Alterac Valley, officially returning to the path of Shaman.
