"Aren't we going to your house?" Aaron and Vereesa left the city lord's mansion with Illucia, but they were led to the magic academy instead of the city gate.
"Time is urgent now, so we must..." Illucia misunderstood the meaning of Aaron at first, but he realized what he meant mid-sentence and looked at Aaron with disbelief. "Lord, you don't remember that there is a portal leading to Lordaeron in your territory, right?"
"Of course I know... wait, you said a portal? Can a portal be built here?" Aaron also wanted to pretend that he knew this, but the shock of the news shattered his disguise. When did there be a portal in his territory? From what Illucia meant, she seemed to have told herself about it. Aaron hurriedly asked, "When did it happen?"
"My lord..." Illucia put on a helpless expression. If time were not urgent now, she would definitely have a good chat with Aaron about this issue. "Just before you went to Kalimdor, I gave you a report on this matter."
"Is there such a thing?" Aaron scratched his head. As a consul, Illucia is very reliable. One of the important manifestations is that as long as Aaron is in Covenant City and Illucia would sort out their daily work and give it to Aaron. However, Aaron didn't pay much attention to this matter and usually just skimmed through it and then read it.
"In short, Covenant City Academy of Magic has a portal that leads to Lordaeron. If we go from there, we can reach Caer Darrow within two days." Fortunately, Illucia has adapted to Aaron's unreliability, and simply told Aaron about the situation of the portal while walking.
The construction of the portal in Covenant City was actually proposed by Terenas. This ambitious king was determined to knead Alliance into a whole, which included a plan to increase the connections between countries by building portals.
Previously, only Lordaeron and Dalaran had permanent portals between countries. If you wanted to use the portals between other countries, you would need to temporarily set them up, which was very troublesome.
Originally, Terenas wanted to build the portal directly at Silvermoon City, but Anasterian refused to agree to anything. After both parties compromised, the portal was built at Covenant City.
It's a pity that Arthas doesn't like to use the portal, and Terenas wanted to train him, so he chose to let him come in a carriage with Muradin, otherwise Aaron should have known about this last year.
The dean of the magic academy is Kael'thas. Knowing that Aaron is going to Lordaeron through the portal, Kael'thas is curious and doesn't know what Aaron plans to do. After all, the need to use the portal means that the matter is very urgent.
While Kael'thas ordered several mages who had nothing to do at the moment to activate the portal - the portal cannot be open all the time, it would be too wasteful, and at the same time asked Aaron why they were in such a hurry.
Aaron thought about it and told Kael'thas that Barov Family might be involved with a secret sect that would cause all kinds of disasters in the future. He planned to go and see the situation.
Kael'thas nodded. He also knew that Aaron had seen the future. He knew that Aaron was not joking. After thinking about it, he called High Elf who was wearing red armor. "Originally, I really wanted to go and see it with you, but It's my duty, I can't leave at will, so...Salorian, you and Mr. Aaron go and have a look. This matter must be related to the Alliance. Since we, Quel'Thalas, have heard the news, we naturally have to contribute."
"Yes, Lord Prince." High Elf named Salorian nodded and bowed slightly to Aaron: "Sir Aaron, Salorian·Morning Seeker is at your disposal."
"Salorian?" Aaron heard the name and immediately focused his attention on the weapon hanging on Salorian's waist. At that time, there was a long sword with a curved body - press Logically speaking, it should be called a knife, but it is sharpened on both sides, so it is better to be called a sword. There are several runes in the style of Night Elf engraved on the sword. There is also a little light shining on the hilt. It is obviously a weapon with an extraordinary origin.
Aaron knows the origin of this weapon very well. It is said to be a weapon jointly created by Night Elf and the five-color dragon, named Quel'Delar, and the Salorian in front of him is the current holder of this sword. In that In history, when Quel'Thalas was completely destroyed by Arthas, Salorian once held this sword to cut off High Elf who had evacuated from Silvermoon City, and he was considered a famous hero.
Aaron thought for a while and felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing for such a famous Warrior to go with him. He thanked Kael'thas for his kindness and stepped on the portal and arrived at Lordaeron.
"Lord, should we go directly to Caer Darrow or say hello to His Majesty Terenas first?" Illucia immediately asked Aaron after walking out of the portal what to do next. If it was what Illucia meant, then of course it would be It would be best to return to Caer Darrow as soon as possible, but after all, they came to Lordaeron through the portal. The use of the portal will definitely be recorded by the royal mage of Lordaeron. If they don't tell Terenas, there is no guarantee what the king will think.
"Well... you really should go say hello to Terenas." Aaron also knew after being reminded by Illucia that it would be best to meet Terenas, It doesn't matter what Terenas thinks, but it definitely won't work if you don't say hello. "But we can't waste time forever. Salorian, could you please hire two carriages? It's still a long way from here to Caer Darrow."
"With pleasure, Lord Aaron." Salorian doesn't mind Aaron using him as a handyman. High Elf is arrogant, and that's his fault. A pure Warrior like Salorian is much more approachable than Archmage and the like. In addition, this trip is to carry out the mission of Kael'thas, so Salorian will not have any resentment.
Not to mention that Salorian went to look for a hireable carriage, Aaron took Illucia and Vereesa to the outside of the Lordaeron palace. The royal guards in charge of the door quickly brought Aaron and the others into the palace. Terenas was waiting for Aaron in the main hall of the palace.
Looking at Terenas, and then at the nobles around him, Aaron suddenly felt that the scene in front of him had a sense of immediacy. After thinking about it carefully, Aaron immediately remembered the source of this feeling - it must have been a similar scene when Medivh transformed into a crow and warned Lordaeron.
