October 1, 2029, the month of the Leaf in the year 342 of the Fourth Age of the Ntagre.

When the first snowflakes fall on the Great Hengduan Mountains, the world of Ntagri also ushers in a cold winter that lasts for five months, bounded by the Great Hengduan Mountains, and the area north will gradually be covered with snow within a month, everything is silent and inhuman, no matter how powerful, they have to submit to the majesty of the Lord of Winter.

And this is also the first time since the world of Entagri was fully opened to players more than half a year ago, showing players this shocking and powerful power. In this way, the traumatized nature may also want to cool down the gradually restless continent.

At this time, three months had passed since Yu Bin returned to Naxxramas from the Wanyuan Plain, and nearly two months had passed since the end of the Battle of Aston. During this period of time, several far-reaching things have happened on the entire continent, so that Yu Bin has to continue to postpone his plan to go to the place where the bones are buried. The situation on the entire continent began to slide step by step into that terrifying abyss.

First of all, the battle that broke out in the depths of the Jerimanca Desert has finally come to an end!

The war lasted for nearly two years, and after the Serpent of Self-Eating used a tea party as an excuse to awaken Shatar, the lord of the sands, and the ancient empire of Shahra, which he ruled, the land began to fall into turmoil, the golden sand was soaked in blood, the sweet oasis was shrouded in death, and the desert was once again filled with all kinds of life, echoing with earth-shattering roars and wails day after day.

In order to destroy this ancient evil empire once again and reseal Shatar, the Lord of the Yellow Sands, the coalition of the Vigilant Camp composed of elves and dwarves divided into two routes, starting from the elven city of Greenfors, all the way along the coastline, all the way along the border between the Balques Hills and the Jeremanca Desert, and directly into the largest oasis in the Jeremanca Desert - Mesai.

For this expedition, the elves and dwarves poured great effort into it, and the northern route army advancing along the coast was mainly composed of elves, with a total number of 220,000 people, including one of the three elite elves of the elves, responsible for guarding the children of the green shade of the Yongge Forest. This is an army with magicians and druids as the main force, and it is also the most powerful mage army in the hands of the elves, and the elven queen who rules the entire elven clan in Elf in the canopy city knows very well that if she wants to fight against the lord of the yellow sand, who is only one step away from the gods, it is useless to rely on the elves' precise bows and arrows and elegant swordsmanship, only the power of magic can bring them victory.

In addition to the Sons of the Green Shade, they were accompanied by the Wingmen's Sky Guard, as well as reinforcements provided by the Gnomes, Half-Elves, and Draenei. The army is led by the Elven Legendary Wizard Issenald Style, the legendary Druid Bloel Bearskin, who is the Elven Queen's most trusted magical advisor, and the Legendary Druid, the Moonlight Forest, a legendary figure from the Druid's Sanctuary Moonlight Forest, who taught many famous druids, including Nararex who died in the Wailing Caves.

The other army consisted mainly of dwarves, with nearly 300,000 men including the Hammer and Copperbeard Guards from Ironforge and the Children of the Mountains from Eagle's Nest, as well as some dragons and humans. Leading this army is Muradine Copperbeard, the younger brother of King Magni Copperbeard of Ironforge, a legendary dwarven warrior who is King Magni's most trusted assistant and one of Ironforge's finest military strategists.

In addition, there are more than ten legendary-level powerhouses and more than two hundred hero-level powerhouses in the two expeditionary armies, so it can be said that in order to destroy the Sahra Empire, the elves and dwarves have used almost all their strength.

On the other hand, the demons also sensed this opportunity, and the demon lord Moncalir somehow learned that the lord of the yellow sand had a powerful artifact in his hands, and at his instigation, the other three demon lords also joined in, and under their drive, more than half a million demons were organized and rushed into the yellow sand, headlong towards Shatar and his Sahra empire.

In this way, in the Jerimanca Desert, a land with a harsh environment and poor resources, there were nearly twenty legendary-level powerhouses, as well as hundreds of hero-level existences, and even Shatar, a demigod-level, for a while, even the eyes of the gods were attracted to this land.

Thus began the cruel and tragic war!

Just when everyone thought that the war would revolve around the ruins of Shaharar, the capital of the Shahra Empire, they didn't expect Shatar, the Lord of the Yellow Sands, to show his great power and the deep heritage of the Shahra Empire.

The nobles of the empire, who were awakened by the emperor of the Shahra Empire using secret methods, used the ancient facilities left behind by the Shahra Empire, through the magic net underground, and unleashed a powerful strategic magic under the leadership of Shatar - the Land of Quicksand. Unbeknownst to everyone, most of the Jerimanca Desert was suddenly filled with quicksand traps, which greatly slowed down the advance of the two camps entering the desert, thus buying Shatar enough time to gather more troops. And this laid the first cornerstone for the subsequent course of the war.

The first to be attacked was the Northern Route Army, which was advancing along the coastline. Relying on the elven fleet, the army didn't waste much time on those quicksand traps, but even then, it took them nearly two months to reach the first large oasis. However, it was not only the elves who desperately needed water in the oasis, but also a full 100,000 sons of the sand of the Shahra Empire.

The first battle of the war took place in this oasis of Sindara, known as the Battle of Sindara. The battle lasted for three days, 100,000 sons of yellow sand relied on the oasis, killed and wounded more than 60,000 enemy troops, of which more than 20,000 elves accounted for more than 20,000, and more than 50 heroes were killed and wounded on both sides. On the Shahra Empire's side, it paid the price of 100,000 sons of the yellow sand being wiped out and two legendary yellow sand lords dying in battle.

Suffering from this heavy blow, the Eastern Route Army had actually lost the strength to continue to go deeper, and had to stay in the Sindara Oasis to recuperate, waiting for news from the Western Route Army.

At the same time, the Demon Clan, who were rushing towards the ruins of Shasar, suffered a painful blow to the head.

It turned out that Shatar, the lord of the sand, had made up his mind at the beginning to eliminate the threat of demons, and while sending an army of 100,000 to intercept the elves in the Sindara Oasis, the demigod personally led more than 300,000 soldiers to attack the unsuspecting demons under the cover of a sandstorm.

This battle, known as the Yellow Sand Raid, lasted less than six hours, and the army of more than 500,000 demons was completely defeated, the two demon lords who accompanied the army were killed and wounded, and the number of demons killed and missing in battle even exceeded 300,000, and the entire demon army almost retreated to the starting point in one go!

The Yellow Sand army led by Shatar did little damage. After this battle, Shatar, the Lord of the Sands, completely ruled out the threat of demons and began to set his sights on another coalition of Orderly factions that were approaching the Oasis of Mercy. The old emperor wanted to repeat a hearty victory as a way to declare the empire strong.

But what he didn't expect was that it would instead become a turning point in the decline of him and his empire!

When the results of the Battle of Sindara were reported back to Elf in the Canopy City, the Elven Queen and Elven Elders immediately realized the danger they faced, while humanity's attention was focused on the increasingly dire situation in the town of Nanhai, and there was not much left to support the Elven expedition. In desperation, the Elven Queen had no choice but to put her hope in their deity, Corellon Larisin, known as the patron saint of the Elves.

After offering a large number of sacrifices and beliefs to the deity, the elven deity granted the elves' request and, together with two other well-connected deities, joined forces to lower a mist for the elves' army repaired in the Sindara Oasis.

Under the cover of the mist, an elite group of around 50,000 was selected and led by the awakened Esenald Yufeng and Bloor Bearskin, and scurried towards the Messey Oasis.

And when they arrived at the Oasis of Mesai, it was the second day after Shatar led his army to attack the Eastern Route Army, at this time, the dwarven army that relied on the oasis for defense had already begun to show defeat, and at most one day of holding out, this army would collapse under the attack of the Yellow Sand army.

Without hesitation, Bloel Bearskin led his soldiers to attack the back of the Yellow Sand army, while Isenad Yufeng united with a group of high-level magicians to release a torrential rain on the entire battlefield.

Affected by this heavy rain, the army of yellow sands lost their natural advantage, and their rain-soaked bodies could no longer remain light and immune to various physical damage, while the dwarves who were nourished by the rain launched a timely counterattack, and the dwarves erupted in shocking combat power inspired by the king of the hills, Muradine Copperbeard.

The battle, known as the Favor of the Tempest, ended in the victory of the combined forces of the elves and dwarves, and the army that Sha'tar had spent a lot of energy and time gathering was wiped out, and the coalition army also paid a heavy price, the king of the hill, Muradin, Copperbeard, was seriously wounded, the already seriously injured Issenald Yufeng died, Bloel Bearskin lost an arm, and in addition to two legends, more than 70 heroes died in this battle, and more than 100,000 soldiers were buried in this desert forever.

And the Shahra Empire is not having a good time, in the face of the death-defying counterattack of Issenald and hundreds of high-level magicians, although Shatar has the strength of the demigod-level, he still suffered a lot of damage, in addition, more than 300,000 Yellow Sand troops were wiped out, three people were killed in the legendary-level battle, and nearly two hundred people were killed in the hero-level battle, it can be said that the imperial nobles who Shatar had finally awakened were almost lost in this battle!

After the battle, Shatar fled back to the ruins of Shasar to recuperate, while the coalition forces had to retreat to the Manria Oasis due to heavy losses, waiting for reinforcements from the rear. The war began to enter a phase of stalemate.

In the months that followed, skirmishes began between the two sides around a long logistical line, and although the desert environment made the expeditionary force uncomfortable, the coalition force recovered to 250,000 men after paying a lot of casualties, and was able to continue to advance.

On the other hand, the demon army that was beaten back to the starting point was not willing to fail like this, and the injured demon lord Moncalil was forced by the other two demon lords to tell the news about the artifact, and under the temptation of the artifact, the fire demon Bajeka and the archdemon Nogas once again tangled a group of demons and launched a second attack on the Shahra Empire.

This time, Sha'tar no longer had enough time and energy to gather enough troops, not to mention the large number of casualties among the nobles had greatly reduced the strength of the Shahra Empire.

So the demigod turned his attention to himself, and he decided to abandon the Sahra Empire in exchange for his own chance to ignite the divine fire and become a god!

It was with this goal in mind that Shatar gave up his goal of continuing to destroy the enemy and began to look for his own partner. Eventually, he set his sights on the spider goddess Rose, and this was the time when Yu Bin was stirring up trouble in Mouseo Black City to attract the attention of the spider goddess.

At this point, the war in the Jerimanca desert began to come to an end, and the expeditionary force began to march step by step, eliminating the children of the yellow sand in front of them little by little, and the army of demons also approached the ruins of Shasar step by step, and finally together with the expeditionary force, formed a siege of the ruins of Shasar.

For their own ends, Muradin Copperbeard and Bloor Bearskin agreed to the suggestion of the Demon Lord Nogas, and the two joined forces to destroy Shatar and his empire, but in the final battle, the expeditionary force suddenly turned back and attacked the demon camp while the demon army was fighting against the remnants of Shahra's forces.

The betrayed demon army had to evacuate the ruins of Shasar, but Muradin and Broel's plan was unsuccessful. They originally wanted the two demon lords and Shatar to fight to the death, but they didn't expect that these two demons would rather be injured by Shatar than become pawns of the orderly camp.

The expeditionary force that expelled the demons had to rely on their own strength to deal with Shatar, but at this time, Shatar had already obtained the priesthood of the cave from the fall of the spider goddess Rose, and although he did not like this priesthood, Shatar still decided to light the divine fire.

In order to prevent the expeditionary force from sabotaging its plan to ignite the divine fire, Shatar used the last remaining strength of the Shahra Empire to create a violent sandstorm that caused great trouble for the expeditionary force. At the same time, Shatar succeeded in igniting a divine fire in his sleeping palace and became a god.

After he became a god, Shatar used the expeditionary force as a bargaining chip to force Corellon Larisien to help him promote Jasmine to a weaker god at the cost of giving up revenge on the elves.

In the end, this war, which lasted nearly two years, with more than one million casualties, seven legendary casualties and more than 400 heroic deaths, finally came to an end. Shatar, the lord of sand, became the god of the caves, and the Golden Queen Jasmine became a weak deity who sheltered the travelers.

This war has caused a lot of trauma to the elves. Especially at the last moment, the betrayal of Corellon Larisin made the elves pay a heavy price, but did not solve the problems of the Shahra Empire at the root. Since then, the elves have abandoned the deity in favor of Angros, the goddess of nature and life, which has deprived a group of gods, led by Corellon, of their primary source of faith, resulting in the weakening of their divine power.

And the elves themselves also lost more than 200,000 soldiers in this war, which is already a heartbreaking loss for the elves who have a long life but a low fertility rate. This also prevents the elves from pumping enough power to participate in several other big events, leading to a series of chain reactions.

It is for this reason that many scholars in later generations believe that this war, known as the "Battle of the Yellow Sands", was the key to the elves' transfer of the leadership of the orderly camp from their own hands to the hands of humans.
