Seeing Undead, who was controlled like a puppet just now, suddenly rushing towards Tidestone like crazy, Aaron was a little surprised and looked at Xal'atath: "Your spell has failed?"
Xal'atath was also puzzled. "This guy suddenly burst into very strong emotions when he saw Tidestone. It's normal to break through the restraints."
"She seems to be saying that Tidestone cannot leave the warehouse, otherwise it will incur the queen's wrath." Vereesa noticed the words in Undead's mouth and said to the two of them.
"After ten thousand years, you are still afraid of Azshara. Is that light of light so scary?" Aaron was amazed and at the same time stretched out his hand to get Tidestone.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred. The moment Undead's hand touched Tidestone, the surface of the stone emitted a burst of light blue brilliance, and then the brilliance spread like water waves, and was swept by this water-like brilliance. Aaron only felt an inexplicable sense of relief, and at the same time the faint fatigue in his spirit was swept away. Vereesa, who was standing a little further away, also felt the same. Only Xal'atath seemed unaffected.
The people present were most affected by the dead souls, including the dean. The moment they were touched by the sudden burst of power from Tidestone, they stopped moving. The souls of those college students gradually became void and eventually disappeared. Only the soul of the dean remained in that dull state, and it seemed that it would not dissipate for a while.
"Why is this happening?" Aaron was slightly startled when he saw this situation and looked at Xal'atath, "Does Tidestone also have an effect on Undead? In that case, why is there still one left?"
"Tidestone only lifted the curse on them, but what do you think is maintaining their existence?" Xal'atath spread his hands, "Now that the curse has been lifted by Tidestone, what else do you think they can solve?"
"Do you mean she will die soon?" Aaron understood what Xal'atath meant. Since it was Azshara's curse that kept these dead souls in a state of immortality for ten thousand years, and now that the curse has been touched, the only way to wait for the poor dean is to gradually disappear.
"But he shouldn't die so soon, right?" Vereesa on the side said, "I remember that we met Undead in the cemetery of Tyr, didn't we?"
"Yes, the soul of Thoradin has indeed existed for three thousand years, and has maintained complete memory and basic consciousness." Xal'atath nodded slightly, "But that was just a special case. Don't forget, there were many people who followed Thoradin in. However, in the end we only saw Thoradin, and the situation in front of us was similar."
"More importantly, the situation of these elves is a little more special." Xal'atath stretched out his finger to hover over Undead in front of Tidestone, "Generally, Undead is formed because there is some particularly strong emotion before death, like Undead like them created by the curse will enter the countdown the moment the curse disappears. As for how long it can exist, it depends on how determined their own will is. The dean seems to be not a bit stronger than her students. As for how long it can last, I can't say."
"Don't worry, I won't die so soon." Undead, who had been standing blankly in front of Tidestone, suddenly turned around and said, and then directed at Aaron's and others bowed slightly and saluted. "Elya, Elya·Lanyue, the principal of the Nar'thalas Academy, would like to extend my greetings to everyone."
After saying that, Elya seemed to see that Aaron was still confused, and further explained, "I have just recovered, and I haven't understood the situation in front of me, so my reaction is a bit slow. Please forgive me."
It turns out that Elya had completely recovered her consciousness the moment Tidestone broke out, but tens of thousands of years have caused her to lose a lot of memories, and the remaining memories have become fragmented. At that moment, Elya was just sorting out her memories and understanding the situation in front of her.
"Are you here for this artifact?" Elya's translucent palm gently patted Tidestone. Her curse has been eliminated and she will no longer trigger Tidestone's purification ability.
"That's true." In order to prevent the other party from being unwilling to hand over Tidestone to him, Aaron simply told the story of Eldre'Thalas's elves.
Unexpectedly, Elya's expression became more confused after hearing this. "Please wait a moment, can you first tell me how long it has been since we were punished by the Queen? Eldre'Thalas was also punished by Her Majesty the Queen, so he cannot get the blessing of Well of Eternity? Who is Fel?"
Aaron and the three of them couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this. It seemed that Elya knew nothing about the situation in the outside world. From what she meant, she didn't even know that Azshara had already sunk to the bottom of the sea with Zin-Azshari at the time of the Sundering.
"Judging from your situation, I probably have to start from the beginning," Aaron thought for a moment, and then talked about the process from Queen Azshara being bewitched by Sargeras to being forced by Prince Tortheldrin to solve the problem of Shen'dralar Ancients's addiction. In order to save time, Aaron skipped many things. After all, things like Dragonflights's internal strife had nothing to do with the situation at hand, so there was no need to explain them one by one.
"Her Majesty the Queen actually..." Elya's expression was very shocked from the beginning - who knew that he would be so surprised after being confused for ten thousand years. By the time Aaron finished speaking, Elya had no idea what to say.
"I came to get Tidestone just to solve Shen'dralar Ancients's addiction problem. You won't disagree, right?" Although Aaron asked for the other party's opinion, he had already made plans to let Xal'atath control him and take Tidestone away first if the other party disagreed. Shen'dralar Ancients was still waiting for this thing to save his life.
"It's okay to let you take away Tidestone, but I have one more request," Elya agreed to Aaron's request without much thought, which also had a vague relationship with her. It was related to the memory of being beaten by Aaron, but she still had her own request. "Can you please help my compatriots first lift the curse imposed by Her Majesty the Queen? We have been burdened with the curse for ten thousand years, and it is time to be freed."
"Okay... okay, but in that case, there is someone you should meet." Aaron hesitated for a while before agreeing to Elya's request. There is still one week left before the time limit Mordent estimated, and Aaron feels that it is more than enough to solve the elves' problems.
