Chapter 104: The Reconstruction of Gilneth
"Don't worry, Liam, your father will be fine, Jean is just bleeding from his injuries in the battle and is temporarily unconscious, trust the druids, you can heal him. Didn't they save you from death before? ”
In the city of Gilneys, the hazy sky is gloomy, the rain drips outside the window, and the mood of people is extremely lost. In the lobby of the town hall, Prince Liam of Gilneth sat on the throne that once belonged to his father, grieving.
His face was full of confusion and confusion, even as Ares kept encouraging the young prince. He didn't look a few years older than himself, but because Jean had been in charge of Gilnes all the time, Liam had never managed such a large country on his own. His confusion comes from many sources, and after conquering Shadowfang Castle, Gilneth is actually a mess. The population has plummeted and cities have withered.
"But my wounds were far less severe than my father's, and he was impaled in the chest by Wolgan's claw, and it was almost impossible for mortals to survive. Even Belissa could not guarantee that he would be able to revive him. ”
Liam replied sadly, his mood extremely low. Even though he maintained his werewolf form, trying to regain some vitality and vitality, it didn't matter what form he was in when he looked really sad. The most important factor is that the psychological hurdle cannot be overcome.
"Trust our allies, just as you believe in me and Gianna, and we will help you. The druids will also do their best to help you and heal your father. The mortality rate of humans after being attacked by blood wolves is indeed high, but after being cured, the strength will also be stronger, and the broken bones will be more tenacious after healing. ”
Ares said, placing his hand on Liam's shoulder, and a warm golden light bloomed from his fingers, flowing, and slowly poured into Liam's body.
"This is hope, Your Highness."
Ares said sincerely. Although these lines are very official and old-fashioned at the moment, Ares knows that this is exactly what Liam needs at this moment.
"Thank you, Ares, remembering that when you first arrived here, my father made things difficult for you, but you were able to resist such sarcasm and provocation and help Gilneth through it. I really don't know how to thank you, friend, no, you are my brother, I am older than you, and I am ashamed not to have your wisdom and perseverance. No wonder Gianna ......"
Liam turned his head and said with a sincere expression. Halfway through his words, he was stopped by Ares. This thing is really brainless, what to say and what not to say, he doesn't think through his brain...... Ares complained inwardly that seeing Gianna rummaging through the bottles on the wine cabinet embarrassedly, Liam knew that he had said the wrong thing.
Then, he looked at each other and pulled away from the topic-
"What's next? Brothers. ”
"Help you through this difficult time, and then, Gianna and I, along with my men, will set out again for the Abbey and gather our forces, and the undead fortresses of the Plaguelands must be breached so that we can unite the Crusaders scattered throughout Lordaeron, including the Silver Dawn......"
"Gilneth will be your eternal ally. Brother, if you are in need, I will lead my men to fight alongside you, Ares. ”
Liam said solemnly and sincerely. Ares sighed from his heart, tossing a big circle, and finally achieved his goal. Of course, right now, in front of Liam, he can't show himself. What's more, since you help, good people will do it to the end.
"There's no need to talk about that for now, let's think about rebuilding the city."
Ares made a gesture, and immediately brought Gilneth's map to the conference table. It marks every corner of the Gilneth Peninsula, the city of King Gilneys, Twilight Harbor, Dragonbone Harbor, the Dark Swamp and more. However, the Silver Pine Forest is largely excluded from this map.
"Do you have any suggestions? This kingdom has been devastated by war, and I don't know what to do now. Whether it is a werewolf or a civilian, they all yearn for a safe life, and safety is the greatest need of people, and I don't even know how many blood-toothed werewolves there are in the Silver Pine Forest. ”
Liam asked, frowning. In the more than 30 years of his life, he has not independently dealt with national affairs. Although Ares had no experience, Gianna was fortunate to have Gianna with whom she learned how to lead the people under the tutelage of her father, Dalin, and her mentor, Anthony.
"Alliances, we have to find alliances. Open the Greymane Wall so that outside reinforcements and allies can reach Gilneys, and it also allows Gilneys' troops to go out and fight alongside their allies. The two Great Wars have proven that the Greymane Wall was a mistake, it could not stop the Scourge Legion, it could not stop the Werewolf Curse, and even, it cut off Gilneth's hope. After the end of this war, the kingdom needs to recuperate and open the Greymane Wall so that the goods of the Silverpine Forest and southern towns can move freely in and out of the kingdom, so that Gilneth can be alive and alive again. ”
Staring at the map of Gilneth with an unstandard outline, Ares said wistfully. It is another kingdom that is closed off and almost destroyed.
"I agree with the opening of the Greymane Wall, but the alliance ......"
Liam was halfway through his speech, and he fell back into thought.
"What's wrong with the Alliance?"
Ares asked.
"The alliance may be long gone."
Liam said wistfully.
"Why?"
The prince's words surprised Ares, could it be that something had changed in the timeline that led to the dissolution of the Alliance? In that case, the human world in the Eastern Kingdom would be even more hopeless. Ares asked urgently.
"Varian, Varian is missing. Stormwind in the south has almost severed ties with the city-states in the north. It is said that only the dwarves of Ironforge still have some contact with the Stormwind Kingdom from time to time, and north of the Arathi Heights, they have not seen the army of the Alliance for many years. ”
Now, it was Ares' turn to look confused. According to the setting of World of Warcraft, the reason why the alliance is strong is because it unites all forces, including dwarves, night elves, gnomes, draenies, and werewolves.
And now, listening to Liam's narrative, it seems that the alliance is only left with a kingdom of Stormwind mired in civil strife and a dwarf of Ironforge. Other races are still wandering around the world, without Gianna crossing the Endless Sea, the Night Elves and humans haven't even crossed paths, Draeney doesn't know which spaceship they're flying on, werewolves have just recovered from the civil war, and everything is more difficult than the original history.
At the same time, because Gianna did not cross west, the tribe and the alliance almost lost the possibility of cooperation. So, what caused Varian's split personality? All of this made Ares full of confusion.
