Dalaran had long received the early warning message from Ravenholdt, and the entire city quickly entered a state of war. When Aaron and the others arrived at the gate of Dalaran, the magic sentry tower standing beside the city wall was already in operation. The magic crystal on the top of the tower shone with the brilliance of Arcane, which looked extraordinary.
The streets of the city can be seen everywhere with mages walking back and forth holding magic staffs. There are also many mages standing on the city walls. As soon as the enemy appears, they will be attacked head-on by the Dalaran mages.
However, perhaps because it has not experienced much war in thousands of years, the war preparations in Dalaran city seem a bit messy. After all, the last time it was invaded by a foreign enemy, it was a blitz battle. Dalaran did not react at all. Although Dalaran was prepared for the coming of war, this kind of preparation only existed on paper before. This is the first time it has been tested.
"This is too unprofessional." Arthas said as he walked on the street of Dalaran, looked at the mage going by, shook his head.
"Although mages are mysterious, they are not good at military affairs after all." Dathrohan did not say it explicitly, but he agreed with Arthas, but then Dathrohan reminded Arthas: "Your Highness, the mages have always been arrogant. It is best not to say some things in front of them, otherwise it will not be conducive to cooperation."
"Don't worry, Master Dathrohan, I understand." Arthas nodded. Because of his relationship with Jaina, he may have a better understanding of mages, especially Master Dalaran, than Dathrohan. Naturally, he is very aware of the pretentiousness and arrogance of these mages.
"In this case, His Highness, please come with me to meet Master Antonidas," Dathrohan ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot. He and Arthas dismounted and walked towards the direction of Violet Citadel. As reinforcements, he needed to say hello to the owner here first. The reason for bringing Arthas, the crown prince of Lordaeron, was to prevent the Dalaran mages from being too arrogant.
As for Aaron and Vereesa, they are not Dathrohan's subordinates and do not need his command. They can naturally move freely. However, Aaron also needs to see Antonidas. The old mage must be reminded of the enemy's purpose. Even if he cannot hold it, he must ensure that Book of Medivh will not fall into the enemy's hands.
Dathrohan saw the two Aaron who were following them, smiled, and asked Aaron: "I heard that Aaron, you and Dalaran have a very good relationship? If our communication does not go smoothly later, I will ask you to help ease it."
Dathrohan's words are not groundless. After all, the arrogance of mages can be said to be world-famous. On the other hand, the reputation of mages among the people is not very good, and most of Paladins come from the civilian class. This has resulted in the relationship between Paladin and mages always being bad.
When Aaron and Rhonin went to Grim Batol together, they had already clearly realized this. Although mages were arrogant, Paladin treated mages as if they were some kind of enemy that needed to be purified. Dathrohan's concerns were very reasonable.
"Of course there is no problem, the enemy is about to appear, we can't have any problems here." Aaron nodded in agreement, but he was not sure how useful his words would be. After all, the one who had the best relationship with him was the mage Dalaran. One was accompanying his wife in Northrend, and the other was the dean in Covenant City. The remaining one...
"Hey, Rhonin, why are you here?" As soon as he thought of this person, Aaron saw a familiar red-haired mage, it was Rhonin.
Rhonin was leaning against the wall at this time, leaning on his staff, looking like he was doing nothing, but looking at his expression, he was no longer as gloomy as when they met before.
Suddenly he heard someone calling him, Rhonin trembled, and the pointed hat on his head almost fell off. He looked up and saw Aaron and Vereesa. His eyes lit up and he ran over quickly to say hello to them.
Aaron asked Rhonin again the reason for appearing here. Rhonin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The teacher came back suddenly. He went to meet Master Antonidas and asked me to wait for him here."
"Teacher? Krasus is back?!" Aaron said in surprise. He had asked Archaedas for help before, but he didn't expect Northrend's response to be so fast. Krasus was already back.
"The teacher suddenly teleported back two days ago. I was shocked when I saw it. However, the teacher left quickly at that time and knew that he had just come back." Rhonin said, showing his staff to Aaron and showing off. "This was given to me by the teacher. He said it was a gift that we haven't seen for a long time. How about it, isn't it good?"
Aaron rolled his eyes. "How can I tell whether the staff is good or bad?"
Having said that, even with Aaron's eyes, one can see how extraordinary this staff is. Just look at the size of the gem inlaid on the top of the staff.
"By the way, Aaron why are you here suddenly Dalaran?" Rhonin didn't care about Aaron's reaction and asked another thing, "The teacher also came back suddenly. Is something big going to happen this time?"
"What? You don't know?" Aaron frowned. He had already seen the mages preparing for war just now. He shouldn't be unaware.
Rhonin waved his hand. "The council only informed us that an enemy is going to launch an attack on Dalaran. The specific situation was not mentioned at all."
"You didn't explain the specific situation?" Aaron glanced at Violet Citadel above the steps and couldn't figure out what Council of Six was thinking, but Aaron realized another problem. "Wait a minute, where are Dathrohan and Arthas?"
"They? Have already entered." Rhonin pointed at Violet Citadel.
"Already in?" Aaron opened his eyes slightly, "Why didn't you remind me?"
"How do I know you want to go in?" Rhonin spread his hands to show that he was innocent.
Aaron had no choice but to run quickly to the door of Violet Citadel. Rhonin actually followed him. When he saw Aaron looking at him, Rhonin smiled and said, "I think there will be fun to see if I go there with you."
Aaron rubbed his forehead, stopped paying attention to this joke, and increased his speed. Before he could reach the door, he heard the sound of quarreling coming from the hall of the castle.
"I can't possibly allow you to do this!"
"But this matter is very important! I must do it!"
"Impossible, there is no discussion on this matter."
Aaron's footsteps paused slightly, and it sounded very loud. However, there was no Dathrohan's voice among the two voices. It sounded like... Antonidas and Krasus? What were these two people arguing about?
