This condition..." Tandred showed a wry smile. He had never heard Aaron talk about Night Elf's conservativeness and stubbornness before, but in his heart, at most, being like High Elf was inaccessible enough. Unexpectedly, compared to their distant relatives, Night Elf was even more autistic.
Under such conditions, Goblin people can persist because the Kezan islands are not very far from Kalimdor. However, Kul Tiras people come to Kalimdor is not that simple. It can basically be regarded as more than half a circle around Azeroth. Such a long-distance route can only be exchanged for extremely restricted trade conditions, which is not worth the gain for Kul Tiras people.
However, Tandred can't do anything about it. He can't negotiate any terms with Night Elf. Even if he can mobilize all the power of Kul Tiras, he probably can't compare with Night Elf - Tandred from Aaron inquired about Night Elf's situation, and deeply understood the power of this ancient race. Not to mention, the World Tree tree with its huge canopy that could be seen far out on the sea was enough for Tandred to be in awe.
Regarding this point, Aaron didn't go into details, and Tandred didn't think to ask. As a result, Tandred misunderstood Night Elf's strength. After all, Nordrassil was able to grow so big partly because it came from Mother Tree. The branches of G'Hanir, on the other hand, are due to the fact that there is a mouth of Well of Eternity below Nordrassil.
Tandred here is worried about not being able to establish larger-scale trade relations with Night Elf, but Aaron is quite satisfied with the results of this contact.
At least Night Elf has been in contact with humans and High Elf. After Third War breaks out in the future, communication with each other will be much smoother.
And Kul Tiras has also opened up a route. In the future, there will be no need to risk a reduction of 30 to 40% or even higher to transport troops.
As for the fact that Kul Tiras people are not all getting better conditions, Aaron is not very worried. Although Night Elf's dominance over Kalimdor is unshakable, Night Elf's territory only reaches Ashenvale The Azshara line is only half a Kalimdor in total. Although most of the remaining areas are very barren and not as livable as the dark night territory, it is not said to be worthless. At least the number of mines produced in that vast land is definitely not a small number.
It's just that in this way, Kul Tiras people will have to compete with Goblin people. Aaron cannot predict how many disputes and conspiracies will arise from this.
After Kul Tiras agreed to the conditions conveyed by Shandris on behalf of Tyrande, the matter was basically settled, and the rest of the matter was irrelevant.
Aaron The main purpose of this trip has basically been achieved. Next, Aaron just wants to take a walk around Kalimdor to see the problems that exist on this land - Aaron still remembers that there is also a sleeping Old Gods in the southernmost part of Kalimdor.
Fortunately, C'Thun only has Qiraji at hand. Unlike Yogg-Saron, which controls a large number of Titan-forged, and is also firmly locked up inside Ahn'Qiraj by Scarab Wall, there will be no major problems for at least ten years.
After relaxing, Aaron decided to visit Ashenvale first. When Cenarius invited him to Mount Hyjal, he didn't say that he was in a hurry, so Aaron didn't want to be in a hurry.
According to his plan, Aaron thought of going to Astranaar first. This town does not look very big in the game, but it is actually the center of Night Elf's settlement in Ashenvale. In terms of scale, it is second only to the tree city built on the canopy of Nordrassil.
Afterwards, go east from Astranaar and you will reach the passage to the north. In the game, this road leads to Felwood. There are many mountains between Felwood and Mount Hyjal. Yes, but this is obviously not the case. This can also be seen from the map of the Battle of Mount Hyjal copy in the game. A road from Astranaar to Nordrassil actually exists.
Walking in Ashenvale, you can see various species everywhere that do not exist in forests in other areas, such as the naughty Dryad. These creatures with the blood of Cenarius flowing through their bodies naturally have an affinity with nature.
Even Aaron, without paying special attention, cannot notice these Dryads who like to hide in the forest and wait for opportunities to play tricks. If they are not careful, they will be tripped by plants such as vines controlled by Dryads.
"These guys are so annoying," Vereesa complained uneasily. The flying eagle Lightning flying above the two of them also cried a few times, as if in agreement with his master's statement.
"There is no way," Aaron is also helpless. These Dryad are also the descendants of Cenarius. They have a good relationship with the elves. It is impossible to use force, but these guys They are also very courageous. Normal scaring will not work, but will make these guys even more excited, causing Aaron and Vereesa to be surrounded by more and more Dryad.
In addition to Dryad, there are also animals like Faerie Dragon living in the woods of Ashenvale. These guys have always had a good relationship with Night Elf, and they are even very wary of Aaron. Instead, they came to greet the two of them very affectionately and even played around.
For a time, the two of them felt that there were many obstacles on this road that was originally free of obstacles. It could be said that it was extremely annoying. Aaron was a little doubtful about the correctness of his decision. He was wondering whether he could just summon a flying mount and fly directly to Mount Hyjal.
"Sorry, these guys are naughty." At this moment, a Night Elf riding a leopard caught up from behind Aaron and the others, it was Shandris.
After Shandris appeared, those Dryad Faerie Dragon who kept laughing and joking all restrained themselves a lot, at least they no longer blatantly caused trouble for the two of them.
"I heard that you are going to Mount Hyjal, so let me give you a ride. It just so happens that I am going to report to the high priest on the agreement reached with Kul Tiras." Shandris controlled the mount to maintain a speed that was almost the same as the two people traveling, and said to them, "You are the guests of Lord Cenarius. I was negligent before."
This sounds reasonable, but Aaron always feels that something is wrong with the way Shandris looks at him. It makes Aaron feel like he is being stared at closely by a dangerous beast.
Anyway, after Shandris joined, the road went much smoother. About half a day later, we saw a town named Night Elf in the distance.
Shandris pointed to the Night Elf town ahead and said, "Welcome to Astranaar."
