Because they wanted to avoid being discovered by the Burning Legion and the emergence of the portal, the Moon Temple that Aaron and the others chose was still some distance away from Zin Aissalin, so everyone could only rush there on foot.
Due to the influence of Queen Azshara, there is a general lack of belief in Elune among Highborne, which also leads to the lack of attention to this Temple of the Moon located near the capital.
Aaron When they arrived, there were only three or two trembling priestesses hiding near the statue of Elune in the temple. Fortunately, the demons almost ignored the existence of the temple, allowing these priestesses to escape.
The current high priest who came with the team took the initiative to stay and comfort these poor priestesses. By the way, he also guarded the retreat road for this team to avoid being unable to leave when the time came.
After walking out of Temple of the Moon, Aaron couldn't help but look back. He vaguely remembered the ending of the high priest, who died in this war, and passed this position to Tyrande. As for how the high priest died in the "official history", Aaron was not very clear.
Under the terror brought by the demon, Zin-Azshari has completely lost its original appearance. This can be seen without even entering the city. Along the way, Aaron often saw Night Elf avoiding the pursuit of the demon.
These Zin-Azshari residents originally believed that their queen would save them, but now Azshara cannot hear their wails or see their miserable plight.
Aaron Some people in their team couldn't bear to see such a scene and wanted to help these poor people. Aaron called out to stop him but got no response. This made Aaron want to return to Temple of the Moon to call the high priest out to help restrain him, but it was a pity that time was urgent.
Before entering Zin-Azshari, Malfurion suddenly stopped, looked at a relatively intact forest far away from him, and murmured, "That forest... no, all the trees are crying, but why?"
Upon hearing this, Aaron felt bad. Since the forest was not crying because of the destruction, it must be because something happened that could affect most of the Kalimdor forest. Thinking about it, there was only one person who could Okay, the Wild Gods over Black Rook Hold are probably starting to fall. Maybe Malorne has been killed by Archimonde, and the pain of the forest king has affected the forest here.
"Don't worry about that, go quickly, don't worry about why, what we have to do is more important." Aaron pretended not to know what happened and urged Malfurion.
Aaron originally thought that Zin-Azshari, as the enemy's base camp, would definitely be in danger. However, after entering the city, Aaron felt that it was surprisingly smooth. It was not that there were no obstacles at all, but it was obviously much smoother than Aaron expected.
The main reason is that Burning Legion's attention was drawn to the battlefield over there at Black Rook Hold. The number of demons in Zin-Azshari is not very large, and these demons are still following the leader's orders to hunt down the residents of the city and collect their souls.
Aaron They will encounter such demons from time to time, and in most cases they only need to pay a slight price to break through the obstacles. However, it was not until they arrived outside the Eternal Palace that Aaron discovered that this team had lost more than half of its manpower. This was even though Aaron felt that the progress was going very smoothly. Aaron didn't know how many people would be left if things didn't go smoothly.
"Let's go to the Eternal Palace." Aaron took a deep breath and looked at the Eternal Palace. Compared with the last time he came here, this palace is a bit more dilapidated. The main reason is that the demons keep coming out of the palace and the ruins in the palace.
Because the demon portal is set up in the palace, in order to facilitate the flightless demons to come out of the palace, the once magnificent gate of the palace has been completely demolished, and even the power supply blocking the passage between the portal and the exit has been removed.
Queen Azshara must have a lot of opinions on this, but after the Burning Legion came, all this was not hers to say. Therefore, Azshara gathered all his cronies into his palace, on the one hand to facilitate the maintenance of the portal, and on the other hand, to scare some evil demons who were not long-sighted, lest these demons Azshara and the others were harvested.
For the Highbornes in the Eternal Palace, the fate of other Night Elfs and this planet is no longer worth caring about. They only want to obtain the gift of the fallen Titans Sargeras and gain more powerful power.
On the other hand, these Highborne also believed that in the face of the powerful power of the Burning Legion, any resistance activities were doomed to fail, so they did not expect that anyone would dare to enter Eternal Palace and want to attack the portal.
This greatly facilitates Aaron and their plans. The demons can't tell the difference between Night Elf at all. And even if the demons can tell the difference between each Night Elf, these guys who have just passed through the portal and arrived at Azeroth don't know that the person walking in front of them is actually a member of the resistance army they are going to deal with.
Of course, Aaron and the others can freely come and go in the palace, thanks to one person, Illidan.
"Didn't you say you were going to destroy Ley Line of Well of Eternity? How did it become like this? Illidan, what's the difference between your current appearance and those demons?" When he saw Illidan again, the one who had the biggest reaction was Malfurion. Archdruid didn't expect that his brother would become like this.
Malfurion's mood is very complicated now. On the one hand, he is happy from the bottom of his heart to see that his brother is still alive, but when he sees Illidan, who is covered in Fel all over his body, Malfurion feels a surge of anger rising from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother, how can I win the trust of those demons if I don't do this? How can I get the chance to get close to Well of Eternity?" Illidan had already expected Malfurion's reaction, but his words still revealed the pain of not being understood by others because he had sacrificed a lot.
Aaron stopped the possible quarrel between the two brothers. If Malfurion's perception is correct, it means that the battlefield over Black Rook Hold should be almost unsustainable. Every second is precious now, and unnecessary quarrels will only lead to complications.
With the help of Illidan who had already penetrated Eternal Palace and gained Azshara's trust to a certain extent, Aaron and their actions after entering Eternal Palace were even smoother than on the periphery.
Until Xavius led a group of Satyrs to appear in front of Aaron's team, Aaron knew that he could not escape and must deal with this guy as soon as possible.
