Chapter 29: Prom Invitations
The invitation was sent by the ambassador of Lordaeron to the embassy in Dalaran, a court count of the kingdom of Lordaeron.
The court counts were different from the fiefdom knights of Orondo. The so-called court knights are those titles that serve the royal family and stay in the capital or the territories directly under the major kingdoms, as a bureaucrat.
The court knights of the same level naturally want to be short fiefdom knights, but it also naturally makes the royal family trust them more.
The Lordan Lundaran Embassy, like several other human kingdoms, is a diplomatic mission sent by their respective kingdoms to be stationed in Dalaran.
Dalaran has a special position among the 7 human kingdoms. While the other human kingdoms each had a vast territory and people, Dalaran had only one city and the surrounding villages around the city.
Nor did the upper class of Dalaran be ruled by nobles and kings, as in other kingdoms. The whole of Dalaran was built by mages, so it was the mages who ruled over him.
The ancestors of the citizens of Dalaran who were ruled were almost all human people from various countries, and they had some connections with each country.
In addition, the location of Dalaran also happens to be a necessary place among several human powers, and the geographical location is also very superior.
Therefore, under various factors, Dalaran has also become one of the political centers of the human kingdom in fact.
Every human kingdom has a diplomatic presence here. As long as it involves exchanges, disputes, and negotiations between human kingdoms, it is generally carried out in Dalaran.
A special ruling class, a privileged middle location, an indisputable political attitude, and the mysterious and elegant mage life that the nobles yearn for, and the elves who are said to inhabit the human world.
All these factors have attracted a large number of human beings to live here. The nobles of the northern human countries are even more proud to be able to buy a property in Dalaran and own a holiday villa.
The title is not high enough, and the wealth is not enough, and he cannot afford to live in Dalaran.
Therefore, after thousands of years of development, Dalaran has also become one of the centers of human world economy.
As one of the political and economic centers of mankind, Dalaran has a role for the human kingdom similar to that of the United Nations on Earth. It can allow the human kingdoms to quarrel and negotiate peacefully in Dalaran under the supervision of the mages, and avoid bloodshed.
It is precisely because of Dalaran's surveillance intervention and mediation that the human kingdoms that have been divided for thousands of years, although there has been a slight friction between them, there has never been an internal war.
So Dalaran had nine embassies and diplomatic offices, and in addition to the six embassies of the human kingdoms, there were also diplomatic offices in Quel'Thalas, Ironforge, and Nomorigen.
Nobles from various countries often hold various balls in their own countries' embassies.
Ambassador Lordaeron's invitation was one such dance.
In fact, since his fame, Orondo has received more than a dozen of these invitations every month, most of which he has left aside and ignored.
This invitation, Orondo wanted to go a little, because the name of the invitation made him feel that the wheel of Azeroth's history did not stop turning because of his arrival.
The invitation letter from the embassy of Lordaeron indicates the purpose of the ball: "Crown Prince Lordaeron is born, and the king orders the ambassador to invite diplomats from all countries to have fun together, and announce the birth of Prince Lordaeron to various friendly countries of Lordaeron".
And this Prince Lordaeron, who was born to be identified as the little guy of the crown prince, his name is - Terenus Minahir!
Of course, King Lordaeron and Crown Prince Terenas Minahir, who is not yet a year old, will not be present at the ball, it will only be a diplomatic ball in Dalaran in the name of the crown prince.
In the past six months, the Lordaeron embassy has also sent more than a dozen prom invitations to Orondo, and he has not been there once.
This time Orondo wanted to go, in addition to seeing the name of Terenus Minahir, in fact, it was not without the reason why Egwen didn't want to go out and make waves......
The Lordaeron Embassy is located in the city of Dalaran, in the heart of the Violet Boulevard, in the heart of Dalaran.
It is the liveliest, most prosperous and expensive business district in Dalaran. Lordaeron was able to build an embassy there, and it can only be said that the strength of the strongest kingdom is stronger than that of other kingdoms.
Dalaran at this time is a complete Dalaran, a human city that has developed for thousands of years. Compared with the "original plot" a few decades later, Dalaran, which can only be called a small village at most, is more prosperous than I don't know how many times, and the citizens and residents borrow more I don't know how many times.
Orondo rarely goes outside of Violet Academy, rarely in Laran.
Because Egwene won't let him run around!
Now that she's gone, and Solanlian can't control him, Orondo feels free!
So after receiving the invitation, although the ball will not be officially held until the evening. Orondo left the quiet courtyard early to go to the liveliest and bustling area of Dalaran.
After all, even the Eye of Truth suggests that [proper leisure can make the host feel relaxed and increase learning efficiency to a certain extent].
Changing into ordinary mage robes, Orondo left the academy in a low-key manner and stepped into the bustling road of Dalaran.
Walking through the busiest shopping street, Orondo saw bags of salt, spices and sugar piled up from the shops to the streets, loaded with merchants pushing small carts to and fro, and the air was filled with the fragrance of various spices.
After coming to Azeroth for more than a year, not looking at the skin color, clothing, and language of these Dalaran residents and merchants really made Orondo feel like a shopping street market in the urban and rural areas of the earth!
Orondo feels new to everything, but he's not without purpose. He had a clear vision of what he was going to do with his [Sephorosa Boutique] magic shop, located in the busiest central area of Violet Boulevard.
He hadn't been back to Sefrosa for a year. The Sephorosa side has been managed by Dobby's butler, and the new estate on Dalaran's side has been run by Dobby's son, Jobi.
Orondo is not worried that the butler father and son will change their minds, or that the dove will occupy the magpie's nest.
Except that as mages, they have the advantage of being downgraded and crushed by ordinary people. It is also because of the human world in Azeroth, where the concept of up and down is very clear. It is the reason why "dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and sons born to mice can only make holes" in medieval Europe.
The Seven Kingdoms royal family, which divided the Araso Empire back then, never wanted to be replaced by their own descendants in the future. Therefore, all the kings of the human kingdom have vigorously promoted the concept of domination based on the theory of blood.
A nobleman is a nobleman, and a commoner is a commoner. The human race, which has not yet undergone the Great Destruction, has not yet been able to give birth to the later civilian elites such as Khadgar, Ronin, and Tulayan.
If Dobby's father and son betrayed the Sefrosa Territory, then why don't Orondo do it, the nobles of the Hillsbrad Hills won't let them live!
This is just like after the First World War on the earth, after the establishment of the Soviet Union, European and American countries were frantically encircling and suppressing the red giant bear, and at the same time frantically alert to a similar situation in their own countries.
So, unless there is an irresistible force that intervenes, such as being controlled by magic. As a result, the human aristocratic servants of this period rarely betrayed their masters.
Especially if the master has mastered supernatural powers.
