After the fighting outside Suramar City, the Titan-forged army led by Aaron also joined the reinforcements coming from other areas. In addition to Tauren and Wild God who were invited, there were also some unexpected reinforcements.
Among them is Sisterhood of Elune, which is headquartered in Suramar. This organization that believes in Elune is not the same as the ruler of Suramar. After learning that Suramar planned to seal off the whole city, Sisterhood of Elune decisively left Suramar, this is also related to the focus of this organization on the bottom - the Night Elf at the upper level are all die-hard loyalists of Arcane, and their belief in Moon Goddess is either superficial or false. If they really stay in Suramar, the future of Sisterhood of Elune will probably only be slow bleeding until it is disbanded.
According to Jarod, who led his army to meet him, Black Crow Castle also had a group of high-borne elves defecting from Zin Aisshari. These upper-class elves were not blinded by the promises of Azshara and the Burning Legion, and they couldn't stand the indifference shown by Azshara, so they chose to leave Zin Aissala. Unlike the previous batch of refugees, these upper-class elves were all excellent arcanists, and they also had a lot of accumulation in them, which was a big boost to the resistance.
In addition to these large-scale organizations, there are also some small organizations with little reputation, among which Aaron has heard of names, such as Unseen Path composed of Night Elf who are good at hunting., that is, Aaron, a time traveler with future vision, knows about the existence of this organization. Even Cenarius, who wanders in the Val'sharah forest all year round, is not very aware of such an organization.
Under the terror and pressure brought by the Burning Legion, many races from Azeroth came here spontaneously, but these people mainly came from the areas near Suramar, and you may not have heard of the resistance in areas further away.
By the time they returned to Black Rook Hold, they had become a mighty team. The Titan-forgeds brought back by Aaron were at the end because they were the largest. This arrangement also meant that they would look after the rear. No one knew whether a demon would suddenly rush out from the rear. The relatively stronger personal strength of the Titan-forgeds was enough to cope with all kinds of accidents.
As a result, Aaron was able to watch with his own eyes the teams that had recently joined the resistance and set out one after another, and thereby estimate the number and approximate strength of this team.
"Including those who stayed in Black Rook Hold, they should be enough to deal with the Burning Legion's attack." What Aaron compared was ten thousand years later. Battle of Mount Hyjal, based on rough estimation, Aaron thinks it should be about the same, but this has to exclude Sargeras. The corrupted Titans alone is enough to destroy this planet.
To prevent Sargeras from coming to Azeroth, the best way is to close the portal of Zin-Azshari now. However, according to Chromie, Dragonflights has just gathered now and it is not time to close the door yet.
Although Aaron wants to reverse history on a large scale, he can only wait for the destined story to happen again. At the moment, he can only pretend to know nothing and lead people back to Black Rook Hold.
When Aaron came outside Black Rook Hold, he noticed an atmosphere that was not quite right. The outside of Black Rook Hold had turned into Wild God and many people who preferred the forest. In the temporary camp of the wilderness race, after Aaron and Titan-forged discussed it, they also let the large army stay outside, and he and Vereesa stepped into Black Rook Hold.
As soon as Black Rook Hold Aaron felt an unspeakable sad atmosphere enveloped the entire fortress, the members of the resistance army not only looked sad but also had confused expressions. Aaron thought to himself that something must have happened, and he and Vereesa hurried to the headquarters of the resistance army.
Compared with before Aaron left, there are some new faces here, including the high priest Sisterhood of Elune, the elected representatives of Highborne who defected, Tauren Harpy Quilboar, etc.
But the owner of this place, Kur'talos, is not here, and many of the senior members of the original resistance army are also missing. The only ones Aaron is familiar with are Jarod and Illidan, and these two people had left Black Rook Hold to pick up reinforcements.
Jarod took the initiative to explain to Aaron what happened. After listening, Aaron lost his voice and said, "How is it possible that Kur'talos was...?"
Aaron never expected this to happen. He knew that Kur'talos would be assassinated and died in the middle and late stages of the war, but he thought that after being solved at this moment, Kur'talos would be free of this threat. However, this incident happened at this time.
"It's the captain of the guards of Varo'then, Azshara." The news to Aaron was that Jarod, the young Night Elf who seemed to be high-spirited when we parted before, is now a little lost.
As the adjutant of Kur'talos, Jarod should always follow the opponent, but this time he was ordered to bring people to meet Tauren's reinforcements and temporarily left Kur'talos However, after returning to Black Rook Hold, he received this bad news, which made Jarod feel guilty for being responsible for the assassination of Kur'talos, although no one felt that this was his responsibility.
Varo'then is different from the previous batch of Night Elf who took orders from Xavius. He represents the will of Queen Azshara. Although Kur'talos already had no luck with Zin-Azshari's compatriots, but when he heard that Varo'then claimed to have brought Azshara's goodwill, he still gave him a chance to meet.
What Varo'then said on the surface was that he wanted Black Rook Hold to hand over those Highborne. When these people left Zin-Azshari, they took away a lot of good things with their identities, including many artifacts. Of course Kur'talos would not agree, but Varo'then did not want to give up easily, so the two sides talked for a long time.
As a result, in the middle of the conversation between the two parties, Varo'then suddenly attacked. Half of the entourage he brought were actually powerful demons in disguise. These demons created great chaos in Black Rook Hold. Varo'then seized the opportunity and killed Kur'talos.
As the captain of the guard selected by Queen Azshara, Varo'then's strength should not be underestimated. By deliberate calculation or unintentional calculation, not only Kur'talos was killed, but also many high-ranking figures in the resistance who followed him were not spared.
Those who fell in this assassination were not only the talents who were discovered by Kur'talos during the war and were ready to be entrusted with important tasks, but also the direct relatives of the Ravencrest Family.
After Jarod took people back to Black Rook Hold and solved the demons that were still making trouble, they were faced with a chaotic mess of Black Rook Hold and the resistance. Now Ravencrest Family is still alive. Except for some unimportant collaterals, there was only Illysanna, daughter of Kur'talos, who left with Jarod. Even Kur'talos's eldest son died in the assassination.
When the chaos subsided, a very important question arose. The leader of the resistance was killed, and the undisputed heir was also killed. This is why these people gathered at the headquarters: who will lead the resistance?
