Chapter 4: The First Encounter with the Three Sisters
"Why do you ask me to take care of you little ghosts? Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info I thought I would be able to go home after completing the task. "When Sylvanas found out that we wanted to surround her like a star, she couldn't help but complain when a child like us followed her, although this does not mean that she really shows disgust with us in her heart, but we have been following her like this, and we will always attract strange eyes from other elves, you must know that she is a popular figure here, and how can she be affected by some gossip when she is entangled by such a Terran child. Especially the eyes of each of us are full of infinite affection for her.
"Because it was you who saved your little hero on a dark and windy night. So you should be responsible for us. The joking Thassarian answered the lady's question first, and then the most dignified of us, Faric, made his paladin-like joke.
"And this is the order of your king. As his valiant paladin, no, as his proud ranger, you should fulfill every command of it. ”
A few of my fellows began to look for reasons to stay and make fun of this beautiful elven big sister, and though they didn't necessarily know that her actual age might be much older than their grandfather's, one thing was certain, and that was that they were very much in favor of my request to their king, and to keep her with us.
Maybe she was welcomed by the little warriors, and she gradually accepted us, but she did seem to have some personal matters.
"You shall not live, for for you I will break my covenant with my sisters. ”
"No, we can go and see them together. Since you won't let me see the sunwell, there's nothing to go to a ranger's house. ”
I was thrilled to see his sisters, Veresa and Aurelia, and made my request, to which she was even more reluctant. Perhaps because she was welcomed by the little warriors, she gradually accepted us, but she still dismisses us in her attitude.
Disdain to disdain, but with her king's orders, she had no choice but to take us to her house. I had to complain about the speed at which she was running, even though she had slowed down. But it's still too fast for a human of our age, but thankfully her home isn't far from here, and Uther wouldn't have agreed to our actions. Although he had begged the Ranger to keep an eye on us many times before, it was clear that she had forgotten the paladin's instructions.
Finally, we arrived at our destination, a relatively quiet small house, although it also has a gorgeous appearance compared to humans, but it is already very quaint here, and the house is relatively low, if the height of the house is related to status, I can hardly imagine that the status of a ranger general can be so low, maybe they don't value these complicated traditions in the first place, otherwise her sister would not take the initiative to help humans resist orcs in the future.
When we arrived, we were greeted by someone there. I know it's because of their superior eyesight that I probably knew about our human presence at an early age. Just for our non-elf identity. Their older sister Aurelia showed any disgust, even a smile, perhaps my adornment betrayed my princely identity. Whatever, as long as she can accept our presence, anything is fine.
"Welcome to humanity, I am Aurelia, Sylvanas's sister. Aurelia explained herself politely, and I couldn't help but wonder about this Ranger who was more temperamental than Sylvanas.
The elven general was almost identical to Sylvanas and had a decoration, except that she was quicker and more precise than her Ranger sister in every move. And it's even more awe-inspiring. I also deeply understand why Tulayan, the greatest paladin, has dedicated his heart to this elf since the first meeting. When I saw him the same, I even began to complain that I didn't have the same era as them.
And it was he who attracted us so much that we forgot to introduce ourselves.
"It's not a loss of paladin spirit to keep staring at the lady. An equally sweet voice came from behind them
Because of her appearance, I also ignored my sister Wenlesa behind them. He didn't look much older than our oldest Faric, and in fact she was exactly her age, and I remember that she was the same age as his future partner Ronin, so only her looks were her most realistic age.
So she is not like her sisters, but acts very immature, and probably the biggest difference is not so, but her hair is pure silver. Perhaps because of his age and status, he looked much inferior to her sister. There were no slender legs, no Ranger Door tight-fitting equipment, just plain cloth robes, just sporadic Ranger equipment hanging on their bodies, such as bows and arrows with extremely poor crosshairs and wooden daggers, I dare say that they must have made it themselves when their sister was still the same age as her, because it looked like it was a hundred years old.
"Sorry, Venerable Human Prince. My sister hasn't seen a human yet, or she wouldn't have thought of you little ones who only have paladin emblems for true warriors. "Sylvanas saw that her men had arrived, and began to taunt a few of us,
I was amazed that she would sarcastically mock us with words. If nothing else, it shows that she really cares about us, and that's what I want to see. I think even if I lose to her in words, then as long as we get closer to each other, it will be fine.
But this topic, after all, still hurts the pride of our proud paladins, and a few of my friends still show some heroic spirit in this regard. Anger was revealed to her. And I knew I couldn't back down at this time, and I followed my buddies to show the same momentum.
But Sylvanas has her own killer skills, and she quickly catches our shortcomings.
"Four paladins were actually drunk with a bottle of wine, and that wine is still there..."
"Alright, please don't say any more. We quickly begged her not to expose her shortcomings in front of the other ladies. Fortunately, Sylvanas still respected our self-esteem, so instead of continuing, she gloated as my sister laughed at my mistakes.
Seeing our child's expression, her sister Aurelia also laughed, and I found that these two rangers who were ruthless to their enemies did not like to laugh, and perhaps if it weren't for hatred, this ranger general might be a different image in the eyes of the Alliance.
"Uh-huh....our paladin status is beyond doubt. Now we're here to learn archery from you rangers. Ask us for tips. After a while, seeing that everything had returned to peace, I pretended to be serious and asked the rangers for instructions, though I said so, but in my heart I wanted to say that you should stay with us.
"Of course, my gentlemen. Winlessa said, apparently showing great friendliness to humans she had never met. And his big sister Aurelia nodded in the same way, only Sylvanas, who had seen us, stared at me deadly, or she had insight into my true thoughts, and had indeed been in contact with me for so long, she should know that I wanted to play with their sisters.
It's just that I think what she wants to play with us should be sarcastic, or sneering, and indeed only in this way can she feel that it is the best punishment for our appearance, of course, provided that we don't cry like children.
Although she thinks so, I can still sense that her heart is actually the same as her sister and sister, and she has no essential dislike for us Terrans, but in order to prevent Aurelia and Winlesa from becoming like her and take pleasure in sarcastically mocking us, I still feel that I should show them chivalry, and since Tulayan, as a representative of the paladins, can impress Aurelia in front of me, then I should be favored by her like this.
I then approached Aurelia in the same way I had done with Uther. And my friends were also surprised by how I behaved, perhaps they had already thought of me as a 'little emperor' who could give instructions to everyone in the palace. But since I don't dare to be presumptuous, they also behave in a proper manner.
Learning to bow and arrow is just an empty word, because bows and arrows like Sylvanas and Aurelia are not at all something that we little children can pull. Wen Leisa's little bow and arrow could not be used as an exercise at all, and since we could not train, the conversation gradually became our theme again. And I found that the ordinary things we talked about could be considered anecdotal to each other, so we had countless topics to talk about.
However, I still really like the narrative about trolls, and their cheerful sister is obviously an expert in this area, such as a few sudden encounters with trolls, how to go about hand-to-hand combat with him, and so on. And for such a thing it is clear that it is very much in line with a few of my companions who have the heart of a warrior, and they listen carefully to every detail about the enemy and the battle. Every time Aurelia talks about her victory over the trolls at the last moment, my friends burst into applause, and the Ranger General is proud, as if she were one of us children.
I would have told them about some of my aristocratic life, but I found myself unable to interject at all, for my little friends were also anxious to show themselves as gentlemen among the ladies, and they never kept their mouths shut, and whenever they boasted of their bravery, they were always dismantled by the other two companions. And the ladies also liked their similar competition for favors, and I thought of the fact that Tulayan first met Aurelia, the ranger obviously liked to see the league lieutenant uncomfortable, as if this similar personality was common to many women.
Or maybe they were tired of bragging, and when the companions' narratives came to an end, Sylvanas seemed to abandon the resentment that he didn't have, and he began to tell her story. But to my surprise, it was also demolished by her sisters.
"Once, when Dalaran was delivering a letter to Prince Kael'thas, I saw a huge red dragon descend nearby, and I looked closely for him but disappeared, only to find a mage who looked like us but was not ours appeared in the place where he disappeared, and he was equally surprised by my appearance, and quickly disappeared.
"That must be an illusion, it is impossible for us rangers to lose a griffin, let alone a dragon, as a good ranger, you can't make such a low-level mistake. It was obvious that it was not only the first time he had heard his sister say this, but his face also showed some disgust.
"But that's true...," Sister Ranger retorted to her sister again. And she took a fancy to us this time, hoping that we would have some explanation, or know something.
I knew who he was seeing, Crassus....the red dragon mage disguised as a human, the favorite consort of the Queen of Life Alexstrasa, who must have just returned from her lover's lair and was discovered. I knew it was him, but I couldn't say that, because then his identity would be revealed. And that's not the ending the mage wants to see.
I wonder why Crassus didn't kill people, as the Courier Ranger of Kael'thas is likely to expose his identity, and Kenrito's political battles now more than ever before would have prompted him to do so.
Maybe it's his faith that doesn't allow it. Since he can be so generous, then I will help the red dragon hide his identity, so I thought of a way to counteract her mark - taunt.
"It's true, that's because I forgot how to fly because I saw your evil face...."
But before I could finish speaking, I got my wish to see her face. Everyone let out an undisguised laugh, which may mean that I had already caused a big disaster, so I quickly chose to run away, but unfortunately, I was grabbed by her slender, agile and powerful hand just as I started. And the other hand smashed a stone directly around me, warning me of my fate.......
"I was wrong....I want to say that the fish is sunken. Wow whoa......" I cried out in pain. And my guards watched me being mistreated and let out heartfelt excitement. But what can she do to me for a child, all she can do is glare at me and some verbal threats.
"Arthas, if you grow up to be a true warrior, I'll make you pay for today at that time. ”
“....”
Sylvanas said this, but before an hour came, we all forgot about it, because all kinds of anecdotes are constantly exchanging with each other, always arousing our yearning and imagination for it, so who will remember such an angry sentence, and if so, will the process and the ending be in a different form?
Before I knew it, the good afternoon was over in a flash, and in the evening Uther came here with the Lordaeron Guard. And at this moment, we unconsciously returned to the previous state. Perhaps because of Aurelia's beautiful appearance, he talked to the Ranger General before he was ready to leave, and it was obvious that his mentor also showed a courtesy that he had never seen before. I can't help but worry at this time about the emergence of a love triangle (joke) at a time when there is a high probability of an orc tribe.
"Poor Tulayan. I couldn't help but sigh.
But perhaps I don't have to worry about them, I have a problem here, too, and Winlessa gave me her bow and arrows before leaving.
"Today is a happy day and hopefully we can see each other again. With that, the young elf offered me his first kiss. I can't help but think of poor Ronin. So I gave him my paladin necklace, knowing that if he could see Ronin again, he would be able to win the trust of the paladins there in Rembaatar.
"Yes, you will be with him at that time, forever together......" The partners couldn't help but sigh when they heard this. And Sylvanas, who saw all this on the side, chose to leave ..... quietly. Vaguely seeing her slightly sad back, it was obvious that they had misunderstood what I meant, of course, it was also possible that I was self-inflicted, and he himself was going to turn his head.
Of course, this result can only be verified in the future.
