After a satisfying feast, the leftovers and cups, plates, knives and forks were removed, and the attendants re-served fruit and Dalaran wine for the guests to dispel the greasy.

Brian Copperbeard quickly drank a full glass of red wine and then burped pleasantly. His stomach, which had been flattened since the hasty battlefield breakfast, was finally full again at this moment.

"This is the kind of banquet I want, the kind of cold dinner party that walks around with a glass of wine is just a spectacle, and I can't eat enough at all!" The dwarf complained to Diego, for that was the most popular form of banquet for the human nobles.

"Not all humans like that." Diego explained that as a Celestial Empire, he also likes to sit at the table and feast, rather than "walking around with a glass of wine", which is more like a social occasion and has departed from the original purpose of "eating".

Amid the whispers of the guests, Varian stood up again. Everyone knows that what is next is the main topic of this dinner, and the previous full meal is more like giving everyone the strength to carry out the next work.

"As you can see, we have won the war, and the next thing that needs to be discussed is, what do we do next?" The king said straight to the point. Soldiers and officers may be able to sleep well and relax completely after the war, but as the leaders of various forces, these people present need to think more.

"Can you be more specific?" Sylvanas said in a low voice. In fact, the next trivial and complicated things to do, the distribution of the spoils of war, the disposal of the prisoners, the treatment of the wounded, and the pensions of the war dead, could not be done for a while.

"I mean the Dark Gate, when the Five Heroes led the Coalition on an expedition against Draenor, the home of the Orcs, but soon after, this interstellar portal suddenly failed, and we lost contact with the Expeditionary Force, and it was not until this time that the Burning Legion used it to invade Azeroth, and it was reactivated!" Varian said solemnly, "What we have to think about now is what to do with this massive portal?" Will it be completely destroyed once and for all, or will it be left as it is? After all, this is the only way back for the expeditionary force! ”

"Of course it's ruined, we've paid a heavy enough price, and we must not give the demons a second chance!" Tirio Ferding exclaimed. He was inclined to destroy the gate in order to prevent future troubles, and although Tulayan, one of the five heroes, and he were the first paladins to study under Archbishop Fao, and the two had a close personal relationship, he still made a good choice when it came to such a matter of right and wrong.

"I disagree!" To the surprise of the people, Furstad Brute Hammer stood up at once, "Although there has been no news, I am convinced that Kudran is still alive, and they are still fighting stubbornly behind that gate!" ”

"He's right, I don't agree with it either!" Sylvanas said quietly, her eyes glowing dark red under her hood, looking like two piles of unextinguished embers.

Hammer was surprised by the support from the Forsaken, and though he didn't like the latter, he thanked the Dark Lady with a bow. In fact, the reasons for their refusal are almost the same, Sylvanas's second sister, Aurelia Windranger, and Furstad's brother, Kudran Wildhammer, are among the five heroes who have not returned to Draenor.

"But who knows if the Burning Legion will come back? When they appear here again, who will resist them? "Big. Law. Shi Luoning raised a question that everyone had a headache in a calm tone. What he said is not unreasonable, the casualties of all ethnic groups participating in the war this time are not small, and they can no longer afford another catastrophe.

The scene fell silent all of a sudden, and everyone present was a far-sighted person, and it was impossible for them to quarrel with each other like vegetable sellers, and they all silently thought about the solution. Just then, Varian turned his head to look at the Prophet Velon, who was beside him.

"Your Excellency the Prophet, as far as I know, you and your people escaped from Draenor, and you must know better about the situation there, can you tell us about it?" The king asked humbly.

"Indeed, as far as I know, your expeditionary force is still fighting stubbornly in Draenor, and I spent some time with your archmage Khadgar!" As soon as the old Draenei said this, the hall was in an uproar, and people exchanged their heads and talked about each other, but the bright sigil suspended on the prophet's head suddenly bloomed into a soft but soothing halo, making everyone involuntarily quiet down and listen carefully to his speech, "At that time, Draenor had been shattered by the demonic spells of the orc warlocks, and only a relatively large suspended continent remained—your expeditionary force called it the Outlands, although with the help of the expeditionary force, We recovered and rebuilt the main city of Shattrath, which was occupied by the orcs, but the situation was still very difficult under the pressure of the Burning Legion, and later, under the guidance of Khadgar, I took a part of the Delaneei to Azeroth on the ship Essoda to find more allies, but unfortunately on the way, the space engine failed, and crashed on the island of Myran, northwest of the continent of Kalimdor! Eventually, under the guidance of the Night Elves, I got here! ”

After speaking, Wei Lun nodded gently to everyone, signaling that it was time to ask questions freely.

"Is Aurelia Windranger still alive?" The Dark Lady couldn't wait to ask, "She's my sister!" ”

"I'm not sure, according to Khadgar, at the time of the catastrophe that Draenor was falling apart, Aurelia and her husband Tulayan led a group of members of the expeditionary force to choose the nearest portal and traverse it. Since that day, they have not been heard from again, and no one knows where they went. The Prophet said with some sadness.

Sylvanas fell silent, but everyone could feel the sadness and loneliness emanating from her.

"However, their son, Arator the Redeemer, is still alive in Fort Glory on the Hellfire Peninsula! He's grown up now. man, and inherited his father's brave, strong, optimistic, and cheerful character, and became a brave paladin! The Prophet said quickly, thinking that this would appease the lady, but he clearly did not understand women well.

"Oh! Aurelia's child! The queen could no longer hold back the sadness in her heart, and covered her face and wept bitterly. Luo Ning hurriedly summoned a female mage and led her to a nearby lounge. Obviously, she was afraid that she would not be able to continue with the next meetings.

"So, what about Kudran Hammer? How is he? As she left, Furstad asked expectantly.

"I'm not sure, in fact, at the beginning of the cataclysm, like the Tulayans, Kudran Brute Hammer and his people chose the nearest spatial portal to enter it, and lost contact with it after that." Veron said apologetically, as if he had caused the disaster, but it wasn't.

"Before we left Draenor, though, a Dwarven messenger came to Shattrath, and it is said that they built a dwarven fortress in the southern Shadowmoon Valley, where they persevered." He paused and added.

"Anyway, I have to thank you, it's good news, at least it gives us a glimmer of hope!" Furstad stooped down and saluted the Delaneys in a solemn manner.

Next, although many people wanted to ask the prophet questions, they were stopped by King Varian.

"If you want me to say that it is better for the Prophet himself to give us a systematic explanation, it is definitely better than us asking random questions!" He proposed.

This proposal was approved by everyone, and Velen himself was not opposed to it. He turned his head to glance at the garrison Marrad, who had thoughtfully removed a heavy roll of hides from his back. The skin had not been untied even when he was eating.

The others on the side hurriedly moved the fruit bowl and wine glasses on the table so that the garrison could spread out the hide. As the hides rolled slowly until they were fully unfolded, Diego discovered that it was a complete and detailed map of the Outlands!

The Draenei are clearly prepared!
