On a starry night in Stormwind, on a balcony of the palace, Claudia was holding a glass of wine, sipping it while looking up at the starry sky, and her blonde hair and dress were blown up by the breeze.

The sound of pushing the door came, and Partris also came to the balcony: "Sister, I found that you always like to look at the stars lately?" ”

"Don't you think the starry sky is beautiful?"

Paltris looked up at the sky and agreed, "It's beautiful indeed. ”

Claudia laughed: "This beautiful scenery has always been there, it depends on whether you have the time and mood to enjoy it, little sister, come and watch the stars with me." ”

"Okay, sister." Paltris leaned over obediently.

However, despite being under the same starry sky, most people can't enjoy the starry sky as leisurely as the two sisters.

Same night, North Lordaeron.

An army of High Elves is stationed here, and the leader of this army is the current leader of the High Elves, Prince Kael'thas.

After the death of the previous elven king Anastarian, Kael'thas returned from Dalaran to Quel'Thalas, but he was not crowned king to inherit the throne, so he is still the elven prince, and at this moment Kael'thas is planning to go to Dalaran with his army to join the attack on the undead scourge.

Archmage Roman hurriedly walked to the door of Prince Kael'thas tent, and was about to push the door in, but was stopped by the prince's aide-de-camp, Baron Sagunar: "Archmage, please wait a while, Your Highness has an attack on demons." ”

Hearing this, Romans frowned: "Your Highness doesn't have any arcane gems anymore?" I still have it here. ”

"Your Highness has it," said the baron, "but Your Highness wants to defeat the addiction of his own will and set an example for the other people." ”

"It's really worthy of Your Highness." Romans sighed and shook his head.

After the battle of Quel'Thalas, the elves suffered heavy losses, and a large number of professionals and civilians died, but the most tragic loss was the destruction of the sunwell, which completely changed the way the elves lived for thousands of years, the energy that filled the body has disappeared, most of the elves have become weak, and more and more elves have begun to have a demonic addiction.

The reason why Prince Kael'thas led the army to join the alliance again this time is to fight the undead, but more importantly, it is to find a way to save the demon addiction of the clan, and the latter task is far more important than the previous one.

Inside the tent, Kael'thas's handsome face twisted into a ball, sweat running down his sideburns, stubbornly resisting the growing sense of emptiness in his body.

Another wave of emptiness hit, and Kael'thas finally couldn't help but reach for the box containing the arcane gems, but he quickly reacted, retracted his hand, and tried to divert his attention, whispering a name: "Gianna." ”

The beautiful woman with starry eyes, a straight nose, thin cherry red lips, and long broken blonde hair seemed to appear in front of him again, and his heart immediately flooded with countless tastes such as sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, and under the intertwining of love and hate, the sense of emptiness suddenly weakened a lot.

"Why would you rather choose that coward and monster than look at me more?" Kael'thas said bitterly and in a low voice, he has loved Gianna for many years, but Gianna only has Arthas alone in his heart, even if Arthas only dares to have a tryst with Gianna in private, even if Arthas abandons her after getting Gianna's body, Gianna still refuses to look at other men.

"Alsace."

Kael'thas pronounced the name with hatred, this time with outright anger and hatred.

In Kael'thas's opinion, Arthas not only took Gianna, but also everything he had from him.

The raging anger completely filled the emptiness, and soon Kael'thas was still a little embarrassed, but he had already survived the onset of the addiction, he stood up, gritted his teeth again and swore "Arthas, I will definitely make you pay with blood!" ”

Same night, Broken Isles, Tomb of Sargeras.

Mavi and several watchmen finally caught up with Illidan, who didn't look much different from a few months ago, but the difference was that he was holding a green orb that looked like an eye and a gem in his hand, and there were a few more naga around him.

Illidan was visibly impatient in the face of Mavi's relentless pursuit along the way: "Warden, I think I need to remind you that the punishment given to me by Tyrande and my brother is only expulsion. ”

"You're a monster, not only using demonic powers, but also messing around with these Nagas, I have every reason to suspect that the bloodshed in the village of Azhara was committed by you and these Nagas, and only the prison is the best place for you to stay."

The words monster and prison clearly irritated Illidan, recalling that he had been incomprehensibly and imprisoned for tens of thousands of years, and he held up the green orb and sneered: "It seems that we can't communicate with each other anymore, Warden, as a reward for taking care of me for 10,000 years, witness the power of the Eye of Sargeras!" ”

As Illidan's words fell, the earth began to mourn.

After a few hours, Mavi dragged her scarred body back to her camp alone, and the watcher Kodana met her leader and exclaimed, "My lord, what's wrong with you?" What about Nasha? ”

"They were all killed by Illidan." "Now that the situation is out of control, Illidan has not only mixed up with the Nagas, but has also obtained an evil artifact, the Eye of Sargeras, and we must call for help from the clan." ”

Kordana also mourned the loss of her sisters: "You are right......"

Kodana's voice stopped abruptly, and the two Night Elf girls looked in one direction at the same time, and a Naga army was marching towards the camp.

Mavi said bitterly, "Now, we can only hope that the reinforcements from the Great Druid will arrive in time. ”

A few days later, Stormwind, Palace Library, morning.

"What the citizens of the city demanded was the most uniform political system and the legal environment possible to guarantee the industrial, commercial and economic development of the city, which could not be satisfied by the feudal system based on the manor economy, and the citizens would therefore support the ruler to expand his power and establish a centralized power to protect the interests ......of the burgher class."

"Therefore, the more developed the country is in commerce, the weaker the power of the nobility, and the Kultilas has the most developed commerce and the lowest nobility, while Lordaeron has the most sluggish commerce and the ......highest nobility."

Claudia was concentrating on a modern book, and the theories it expounded in it had so caught her attention that she was a little reluctant to close it for a moment when the maid Sally pushed the door in.

Claudia closed the book, stood up, looked at the bronzed-skinned man who had been led into the room by the maid, and asked, "Is there anything wrong, Mr. Harrison?" ”

"Sorry to bother you, Miss Claudia." Harrison saluted gentlemanly and said with a serious expression, "But Tawad wants to see you immediately, he has something important to report, about the tomb of Tyr." ”

"Tawad? I see," Claudia said, already remembering the leader of the Tyr Guard, and turned to the maid, "Sally, you go with Mr. Harrison, and bring him here to meet me." ”

"I see, miss."

At the same time, Lordaeron.

Kael'thas frowned on his handsome face, and the astral master Caponia stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, are you worried about the people who stayed in Quel'Thalas?" ”

Kael'thas looked up at his cronies, and said without hiding his concern, "Yes, we must find a cure for the addiction as soon as possible." ”

Archmage Romans stepped forward: "Your Highness, according to the news of the scouts, the melee in the land of Western Oro is still going on, and it seems that we have to go to Dalaran through the Silver Pine Forest. ”

Kael'thas thought for a moment before deciding, "Then go to the Silverpine Forest, werewolves are better to deal with than undead." ”

The prince's order quickly spread throughout the army, and the Blood Elf army began to divert course.

Hours later, the Broken Isles, Broken Beach.

Illidan stood on the boat, looked at Malfurion and Tyrande on the shore from afar with interest, and said, "My dear brother, what are you doing here?" ”

Malfurion said angrily: "I was so soft-hearted at the beginning, this gave you the opportunity to do evil again, Mavi is right, the best place for you to stay should be in the cage, this time I will not make similar mistakes." ”

"Everything I do is for the sake of this world," Illidan sighed in disgust, "Forget it, you and Tyrande will never understand me anyway, see you next time." ”

As the words fell, Illidan made a gesture, and the ship was speeding eastward, and soon, Illidan's figure became smaller and smaller.

Mavi looked at Tyrande and said unceremoniously, "If you hadn't killed my men and released this demon, how could things have gotten to this point!" ”

Tyrande turned his head, "I just did what the goddess told me to do." ”

Seeing that Mavi was about to speak again with an angry face, Malfurion quickly changed the subject and said, "Okay, the important question now is how to stop Illidan from continuing to do evil. ”

Tyrande spoke: "Look at the direction of Illidan is the Eastern Continent, and the Eastern Continent is the sphere of influence of mankind, although we don't know what Illidan is going to do in the Eastern Continent with the Eye of Sargeras, we should go and seek the help of King Varian, so as not to cause greater disasters by Illidan." ”

Mavi's voice was puzzled: "Human? ”

Malfurion explained to Mavi, "Yes, we worked with the humans to defeat the Burning Legion at Mount Hyjal, and they are our reliable friends, and we believe they will help us once again. ”

Stormwind.

Varian put down the communication ring and was frowning and thinking about it, when Arthur stepped forward and announced, "Your Majesty, Miss Claudia has asked to see you." ”

"It's this time." Varian was a little surprised, Claudia rarely came to see him during his working hours, what would happen to her?

Soon after, Varian met Claudia, who was obviously worried and slightly embarrassed to speak, "Your Majesty, I may have to leave Stormwind for a month or so. ”
